I
found my self awake in a world of dreams..., dancing with my lover in a
world glistening with the gaiety of crystal like, rainbow reflections.
It was a magical world blanketed with the brilliance of God's
most gracious of gifts..., the gift of life.
It
was an extraordinary dream...., an enigmatic moment across the bridge of
time whereupon all thoughts could be made into things, and the sound of
silence was the purveyor of truth.
Like
nothing else ever seen, the bridge upon which we journeyed was not one
of stone or wood, but of windows and mirrors..., and though it appeared
flat from the outside, flat it was not, but carried the unusual shape of
a necklace of pearls..., yet
they were not pearls, but strands of crystals, each of which carried a
harmonic tone unique to its own being.
As
we walked across the bridge, it was as if we were dancing from crystal
to crystal in a harmonic soliloquy of light and love.
Our journey took us deep within the heart of each crystal, and
therein we saw an astonishing hall of mirrors - a collection of
reflections laid out like a mosaic of tiles, each of which carried a
story of its own - stories about life, and the mystical relationship
between light and love.
As
we studied the mirrors, we found ourselves entwined in a web of
realities, each reality reflecting a choice of possible destinies, and
each destiny nothing more than a summary of choices.
The
more we studied the mirrors, the more we learned, and the more we
learned, the more we grew..., and in our growth, we came upon a
startling realization - a realization which shattered our illusions of
who we are, and what we were to become.
Unlike
our wildest expectations, we discovered that, though it appeared as if
we were looking outside of ourselves from within, we actually found that
we were within and amidst, the cavity of our own minds, and each crystal
of mirrors was in fact, the webs of creativity within the store-house of
our very own imaginings. We
had taken a journey into the Universal Mind, and the truths we were
discovering were astonishing.
The
harmonic resonance of each crystal upon the strand, was in fact, the
vibratory sound of the predominant thoughts carried by the imaginings of
the mirrors within. And, as
in the life of an individual, as we chose what thoughts to identify
with, the crystal began to resonate the sounds which would bring into
reality the focus of our minds. As
we looked within the crystal, we saw the collection of mirrors as a
collage of thoughts from which to choose, each of which when chosen,
acts like a button, and when the button is pushed by individual choice,
the mirror becomes a window, and through the window we can leap, and
from this leap, gain the experience of the chosen illusion. And
on this day, I chose the illusion of the life of David Strauss.
As I pressed the button to begin my journey, I said goodbye to my
attachment to who I am, and began the journey of the birth of a modern
day warrior.
