Dear Friends,

Today I have had a dream which seems to me to be related to the post

I wrote below.

There was the shape of a face appearing out of greyish clouds. I

first saw this in profile, as it began forming features, and then it

turned towards me so that I could see it full on. As it formed it

seemed to set, into something very hard and mask-like, it looked

like greyish wood. There were holes for the eyes, and in these holes

was a dazzling golden-white light. The light was growing in

radiance, and could also be seen all around the outer edge of the

mask. I thought of Christ.

This image faded away, and in its place another mask appeared. This

time the features were of a wonderful woman. Being in the presence

of the mask I could feel Her patience, gentleness, and compassion

radiating towards me. The mask was suspended in front of me, and I

felt a compulsion to become moulded into it, and so I moved quickly

forward, and took the mask in my hands and pushed it very hard onto

my face. I felt its hardness and coolness on my face, and I felt

myself becoming one form with it.

Now I found myself part of a timeless forest of trees, and was

watching animals playing, all unaware of my presence. It seemed I

was there for a very long time, peacefully watching, and now there

were people, and I was watching them also, their emotions and their

struggles. I was thinking how everything that is material passes....

 

Love, Semira
