Yesterday, I dreamt of a person, who flew across oceans to a remote village; well, not very remote for there he found many educated people turning themselves in to learn about life. There was an institution lying around somewhere in the vicinity which claimed to teach life. He wasn’t particularly interested in that.

He didn’t seem very different from anyone out there and nobody did particularly notice him. He himself was too reluctant to be acknowledged.

He roamed around the village picking up all the errands that need be ran around, cooked, cleaned, served, gave directions to the people who were lost and sometimes just stared not particularly anywhere.

One evening he was sitting across the sun watching him set and suddenly he was besieged by what he couldn’t notice at all. It just stole itself into his being and made him something he always wanted to be. It brought with it a benign sense of living.

When the ceremony began, he was sitting with everyone not at any particular spot. After everyone introduced themselves, his turn came.

He answered, “I’m from nowhere and I’m going nowhere.”

I woke up with a certain sense of startle reflex and wondered what it meant. I was overcome by a totally unexplainable sort of inexplicability. I was overwhelmed by the whole phenomena.

Yesterday night, I dreamt enlightenment.
