The easiest way to free oneself from restraints is to reach with one hand to the side of the bed, which is possible. There, the restraint is tied and can be easily untied. After freeing one arm, it is easy to use it to free the other. The patients who seem to know this the most are those who have previously worked in acute health care settings.

"Edouard Guilloux, "St. Alphonsus Liguori on Mental Reservations: A Speech Acts Analysis" (2015), p. 15-16. According to Alphonsus Liguori, for the licit use of a mental reservation, "an absolutely serious cause is not required; any reasonable cause is enough, for instance to free oneself from the inconvenient and unjust interrogation of another."

The object is to free oneself from the body and to be lifted into the presence of God. Dervishes have been important as founders of agricultural religious communities called jamaat (singular jamaa).

Most Somalis were nominal members of Sufi orders but few underwent the rigors of devotion to the religious life, even for a short time.

The IHCS offered a forum for a dialogue among quarrelling Indian historians and organised a number of seminars to discuss fundamental problems of Indian historiography. According to its chairperson Prof. D. Devahuti, "one had to free oneself from Western categories like, for instance, that of class struggle, and resume 'indigenous frameworks of interpretation'." She characterised Indian history, including medieval Indian history, as one of consent: 'emphasis appears to have been on consensus, i.e.

He believed that through "losing yourself" in art one could sublimate the Will. However, he believed that only a resignation from the pointless striving of the will to life through a form of asceticism (as those practiced by eastern monastics and by "saintly persons") could free oneself from the Will altogether. Schopenhauer never used the term pessimism to describe his philosophy but he also didn't object when others called it that.Cartwright, David E. (2010).

He spoke, for instance, of family life as a battleground: "I have always looked upon my parents as persecutors," he wrote in a letter, and that "All parents want to do is drag one down to them, back to the old days from which one longs to free oneself and escape."Franz Kafka: The Metamorphosis and Other Stories.

Certain Solos consist only of instructions to the performer, ie. what he or she should do and how, although these instructions may be rather free (for instance, "Perform a disciplined action" may be an instruction, and according to Cage it does not mean "Do whatever you want", but rather a request to discipline oneself and/or free oneself of one's likes and dislikesRichard Kostelanetz. Conversing with John Cage, p. 108. Routledge, 2003; ).

However, since the goal is not to abandon the created world, but just to free oneself from ones own lower desires, it can be disputed whether this can still be Gnostic, but rather a completion of the message of Muhammad. It seems that Gnostic ideas were an influential part of early Islamic development but later lost its influence. However the Gnostic light metaphorics and the idea of unity of existence still prevailed in later Islamic thought.

In 1940 Lange's second novel was published Ulanenpatrouille (Ulans' Patrol). In it he wrote "one had to be exposed to whatever the ... dark and formless powers had decided, one could not free oneself, and one was obliged to accept it, even if it meant death itself, which would thrive upon it." Lange was drafted for World War II in 1940 and worked as a writer in a training unit. Frustrated with his work he willingly accepted a posting as a soldier-reporter to a 6th Army pioneer unit in September 1941. Shortly before beginning his military service Lange noted in his diary on 22 May 1940 "I... submit to whatever may happen".

Forgiveness in Hindu Dharma does not necessarily require that one reconcile with the offender, nor does it rule out reconciliation in some situations. Instead forgiveness in Hindu philosophy is being compassionate, tender, kind and letting go of the harm or hurt caused by someone or something else.Temoshok and Chandra, Forgiveness: Theory, Research, and Practice, The Guildford Press, , see Chapter 3 Forgiveness is essential for one to free oneself from negative thoughts, and being able to focus on blissfully living a moral and ethical life (dharmic life). In the highest self-realized state, forgiveness becomes the essence of one's personality, where the persecuted person remains unaffected, without agitation, without feeling like a victim, free from anger (akrodhi).

Zhuangzi as an old man The stories and anecdotes of the Zhuangzi embody a unique set of principles and attitudes, including living one's life with natural spontaneity, uniting one's inner self with the cosmic "Way" (Dao), keeping oneself distant from politics and social obligations, accepting death as a natural transformation, showing appreciation and praise for things others view as useless or aimless, and stridently rejecting social values and conventional reasoning. These principles form the core ideas of philosophical Daoism. The other major philosophical schools of ancient Chinasuch as Confucianism, Legalism, and Mohismwere all concerned with concrete social, political, or ethical reforms designed to reform people and society and thereby alleviate the problems and suffering of the world. However, Zhuangzi believed that the key to true happiness was to free oneself from the world and its standards through the Daoist principle of "inaction" (Wu wei wúwéi )action that is not based on any purposeful striving or motives for gainand was fundamentally opposed to systems that impose order on individuals.
