A Dream

                          Dhamma Sukha’s Stream.  

I had a dream some years ago right before I came here for a retreat to do my temporary ordination.  I dreamed I was walking around in a very unusual place and I had something wrapped around me like a rug (or a nuns robe?) - it kept falling. I came to a place that had a door out to a stream. Other people had noticed this door too, when I stepped through the door I saw the beautiful stream (with rocks and twigs and logs) and there was a very big snake with vivid yellow/orange stripes in the stream. I was disappointed that the snake was there ruining the experience. I became frightened and left.  The other people stayed there by the stream, I don’t know if they were afraid. The place seemed dark but also beautiful.
