DREAM WEAVER

Life is nothing but a dream??

Dreams what mystery to behold
Rising and setting sure as the sun
Every reflection of the mind @ rest
Atoms of impermanence
Memories of another dimension
Spell breaks, still not awake!

Dream Journal #2: Dreaming in the lotus again...getting weirder by the moment...a large hall filled with hundreds of people attending a blessing ceremony at a monastery. Squinted and saw HH Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama at the front on the throne with a long queue forming in front of him....people offering khatas (white silk scarves) for blessings....suddenly the dream switches to me fighting off a huge horrifying horrendously ugly monster..mind concentration ... both using lots of weird hand mudras to fight each other off..grrrrr....*get off my back*!!.....I Asked the darn monster "What do you want from me???"....The darn monster replied "I have been waiting for YOU!!!"..arghhhhh...wanted light to emit from the fingers and it did....what the..... the horrendously ugly monster fell and changed into a cute little gurgling baby....sitting in an opened bag...with fresh pink and white lotus flowers petals scattered all around.....grrrr....subconsiously releasing energy blockages? unleash the "demons".....Am i the demon or the demon is ME!?

Back to the blessing ceremony.....i was filled with so much joy upon seeing HH the 14th Dalai Lama..as if I've waited for this very moment my whole life.! ..Glanced upon a framed picture on the wall....oh my god..saw the reflection on the glass ....i WAS a MAN...! ..hahaa..and a very handsome one ...a little like the handsome prince in SHREK..with sharp features and high cheekbones....enough of self admiration already! ahahaa..oh its my turn now..i took the Katha offered it to His Holiness and he whispered a prayer and gave it back to me..put it around my neck....then he looked at me and said "PLEASE CONCENTRATE, FOCUS! BE SERIOUS!!!"..and broke into the heartiest of laughter.....

I humbly bowed and put my palms together and nodded.

Scene change: alot of lamas whispering to each other pointing in one direction...all eyes in that direction....one lama carried a baby wrapped in many layers of white katha and shoved the precious baby into my arms...he said..TAKE him and protect him even at the cost of your life! the rest of them nodded and said to me "YOU UNDERSTAND???!!!". I nodded back...bewildered... what was i supposed to do with the baby????

Recitation of the long life Prayer for His Holiness followed, the last atoms of the beautiful sand mandala cut away ....leaving nothing behind...million of sand grains carried away....

what phenomena ...dreams....Wake up Wake up Wake up!

*ALARM rings...OMG it's nine thirty am...gonna be late for work....runs like the wind....

"Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion." His Holiness The XIV Dalai Lama
