3. Path to Freedom: We become free by recognizing the active role of our thinking (not passively accepting rules or impulses) and by engaging with the world in a way that harmonizes personal insight with universal principles. This process fuses subjective creativity with objective reality, enabling genuinely self-determined actions. In short, Steiner’s core message is that freedom is discovered internally—through self-reflective thinking and moral imagination—rather than simply granted or imposed by external authority.
