Regardless of your religion i think the point to be had he is thus:
That some prophet a long time ago said that:
The place we go when we dream is the same place we go when we die.
Compare this to what Jung said abou the deepest and darkest levels of the shadow. The 'Collective unconcious.'
For ****s sake people just ignore religious overtones anymore. A book of wisdom is just that. Who really gives a rats @$$ what religion it is or what some fantatical militant whack job wants to tell you about the people that study the teachings of whatever book sources that wisdom or what the fanatical militant whack jobs wants to tell you about people who DON'T follow it.
They're called opinions. Everyone has them.. Get over your EGOs already. You will waste away into pathetic and miserable fear in hell created by someone elses dream because you can't wake up and think for yourselves.
Remember the love and respect due to all mankind...it is the respect due to yourself.
OP - Thank you for this extremely vasluble reference which is extremely relevant to the topic at hand. We may have otherwise stroked our egos and loved our predjuices had you not pointed out this wonderful metaphor written by a wise man long ago.
It very interesting to notice parallels in the metaphors of religious writings. I guess some metaphors help people conceptualize spirituality and dreams better than others. Whatever floats your boat as they say.
Okay..Dexter is up WAY to late...he's forgetting 3rd persona and taking some posts way too far as a buildup over anger that is directed someone totally different. Time to go LD & work all that out.
