Guest guest Posted May 29, 2001 Report Share Posted May 29, 2001 A point to note in Ghazaleh's dream is the fact of the activity of purification in one direction, but the desired goal in another and totally unexpected manifestation. I found, when I was in retreat, that very often things I wasn't even thinking of would suddenly unblock as though the process of purification itself had reached a certain level of catalytic power to react on epiphenomena, while the main thrust of the thing still needed to continue. There's also the fact that just a few drops of vinegar (the purifying agent) will turn milk (though not quite make yoghurt!), and that warmed milk and yoghurt mixed make more yoghurt. Are we looking, here, at the fact that there is also no need to overdo the purification, that a few drops, correctly applied, might well suffice? Just some suggestions. When it comes to dreaming in languages, Sergej, I think one can always look for parallels - either translation parallels or puns... Not that they're necessarily there, of course, but... m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
