Back in 1996, the night after I had a most powerful life changing

spiritual experience, I dreamed that an old dog was chasing me. His

owner, (me) had died and that dog was very mad at being locked up for

so long. In the dream I ran into a clean white light room and

hurriedly shut the door.

I experience something I label fear when the dogs come. But I know they

are just me wanting to merge with me. Hungry ghosts as the Buddhists

say. Let them come and devour me. If " I " die so what? If " I " must die

again and again, so what? The dog is just me yearning to be freed from

prison.

Just a story. Who is this " I " ? God? Who is this dog? God? God's dog?

What's the difference? See how even the letters godsdog are a

reflection of themself.

Cool,

Doug
