OLD MAN IN A CAVE

"Sweet dreams are made of these..who am I to disagree..Travel the world and the 7 seas..Everybody's looking for something..Some of them want to use you Some of them want to get used by you Some of them want to abuse you Some of them want to be abused"....favourite song from Eurythmics...only in dreams...only in dreams...

Dream Journal #1: Dreamt of an old man in a cave last night..it was the weirdest of dreams...the dark dark cave was illuminated by a hole in the roof ..sounds of trickling water could be heard..ancient vines twisted in every direction...the cave was cold and dusty..but the energy around the old man was filled with such warmth....the old man spoke with an inner calmness...such beauty and moments such as these can only be seen in dreams...There were rows and rows of pictures of monks in saffron robes, statues of various sizes and many crevices held the weirdest of items., masks, swords and incense...seems like a sacred place...a big white tiger was walking about...not bothering anyone..

He spoke like a wise old man but with piercing firey eyes and he looked so frail, a sneeze could break every bone in his body...this seems to be a recurrent dream......did 3 prostrations and knelt down in front of him. The energy was intense...the conversation went on and on..speaking in an unknown language...but i seem to have understood every word....dreams touch every core of our being, yet they are only just that dreams..but somehow there seems to be an inner healing and spiritual dreams always leave me feeling loved unconditionally...dreams make me ponder what is the purpose and real meaning in life...I often wake up feeling inspired to do more

and suddenly water gushed in from the entrance and the old man commanded me to leave the inner chamber and help others who are trapped outside...i ran out and saw many people running for their lives!...the muddy water was everywhere....increasing with speed.....what am I to do?? Can't save everyone...everyone was reaching for higher grounds..heard the old man saying "WAKE UP, WAKE UP, WAKE UP!!!" from beyond...

*the alarm rings*....

Saffron robes flowing

A second glance

Here's to the past glowing

Show 'em the ropes

inner light illuminating

silence paves the way....
