Freedom is the purpose of this life, yet what is freedom? The full enactment of ones will? To not be tethered by others, as you cannot truly be free if you not fully independent. How can he truly be free if attached to his spirits, or rather vise versa, and is dependent on them. I think that the freedom that he is looking for is one of not being inhibited by others, and to do so he must have strength.
