 The concentration of all religious, social, and other institutions that obstruct human liberation has taken place within the family institution. The family is the primary institution. In this picture, you see a huge, grand building. And the place from where the picture is taken is a slum. There is no real difference between the two. The institution will remain. A person thinks that buying a new, grand, luxurious cage (house) will set them free. That is why the ever-unsatisfied person keeps changing cages but never communicates freely with the people inside the house — sometimes, they don’t speak at all. A generation is emerging that lives with the burden of relationships within the home. This itself is a big subject for further research. After all, even if the cage is made of gold, the eagle is never attracted to it.
