A Buddhist lesson in Jonathan Livingstone Seagull
 

“Why is it,” Jonathan puzzled, “that the hardest thing in the world is to convince a bird that he is free, and that he can prove it for himself if he’d just spend a little time practising? Why should that be so hard?”

Fletcher still blinked from the change of scene.

“What didyou just do? How did we get here?”

“You did say you wanted to be out of the mob, didn’t you?”

“Yes! But how did you ...”

“Like everything else, Fletcher. Practice.”

It's great Eastern Teachings and Philosophy show up all over Western Media.

It's in books, like Tao of Pooh, in mainstream movies like The Matrix, Star Wars, even Mary Poppins.

You have the freedom to be yourself, your true self, here and now, and nothing can stand in your way".”
― Richard Bach, Jonathan Livingston Seagull
