Guest guest Posted January 10, 2002 Report Share Posted January 10, 2002 dear dave, reading vedanta is my hobby and i am seeking many answers from them. just imagine that a dave is sleeping and dreaming in another planet. he is dreaming of himself living in another planet called earth. there dave laughs, cries, works, rejoices etc. he sleeps in the other planet. cant we have movies in which there are movies. arenot there instances where there have been hollywood movies where the movie talks about a movie being made. any way, kindly answer this. when the dave of another planet wakes up, the dave in this planet dies. is it not possible. regards partha gjlist, DaveBirr@a... wrote: > Partha, Study Vedanta if you want to experience the idea of the world as a > dream or illusion.

Sade Sati for example is a good time for that...guaranteed humility or you're GONNA HURT....the more humble the better...and service to the lowly...oh yes that helps us out of that dream land......try a little bum wiping, and tooth brushing, my friend, if you think you're in dreamland all the time...just tell yourself, that as you take care of that disabled person and they drool on you....that it's all a dream...and when they yell at you cause you weren't gentle enough...that's all a dream too....and when they bite you cause you still didn't listen...well...that blood poison is all a dream too...and it'll get you out of THIS one into ANOTHER one....so enjoy the ride...on Mother's Merry-go-round Ferris wheel combination....lots of fun....don't drop your cotton candy....and don't forget your vinyl gloves.... yours in the dream, and in the Divine Mother's Loving Leela, and too, in Her laughing blissful service, as ever, your own servant, visvanathan Om Amrtesvaryai Namah!!!
