“Although social bonds are necessary for the existence of society, such bonds hinder the fulfillment of the individual.
As long as there is unity between the opinion of the society and the opinion of the individual, then there is no fight. But when there is a difference between the opinion of the society and the opinion of the individual, tension begins, and if the individual does not attain that freedom, the moral consequences are equally adverse to both.
In that, a person is in a dilemma due to social constraints, that is, the things that one wants to do from the heart, but the society does not allow to do them openly, the person has to do those things in secret.
Once a person gets into this kind of habit, he easily becomes a hypocrite, a duplicitous person, a liar and a dishonest person.”!!!
