Mountain Home

Voice : So you are not doing anything about that dream of yours ? 

Me : No. I don’t feel driven about it all of a sudden. Its not getting me excited as I always used to be. Find that weird. 

Voice : I know. You always wandered off everyday in your head imagining a lone cottage in the icy remote snow mountains. You got past every day with this imagination. I know how you even worked up snowstorms in your head for that real mountain feel...

Me : Ha ha. You know every detail of my dreams!

Voice : I know each detail..all your dreams and your emotions. You wished for a cottage high up in the mountains…stone walls, fireplace, large windows overlooking the majestic snow peaks, surrounded by thick oak forests, wooden floor, cozy study room with your writing desk, rocking chair in the sun drenched porch, hot cups of ginger tea, backyard kitchen, snow flakes gathering in your porch …you even imagined the cedar wood fragrance in the air and that deep silence with nobody around for miles…I know each thought that ran into your head…   

Me : Wow, you really are attentive to each thought of mine.  

Voice : I always am. I also know the deeper feeling behind your thoughts. 

Me : You know I have held this dream in my heart for so long and I have reached a point in my life where I can create this dream into a reality…you have given me all the resources and opened doors that I just have to walk into. But I don’t understand how I am not excited about it -  did the desire just vanish from my consciousness ? 

Voice : Maybe, it transcended. To something bigger ? 

Me : What does that mean ? 

Voice : You dreamt, but were detached from it. The dream brought you the feeling of peace, stillness, joy, love - and now, the same feelings have magnified into your consciousness. You have unconsciously become a perfect match for a deeper experience of the same feelings. And when you are detached from results, you allow dreams to get bigger. Few know this. 

   

Me : Hmm..

Voice : Your dreams have played their part perfectly well. It has gradually opened your heart and you will be drawn to deeper experiences of love. All desires, dreams and ambition gently fade away in the background. Contentment is no longer a battle. The world of pursuit is replaced with joys of inner journey. The Truth seems closer and your path takes a turn from all that you have planned. Happiness is redefined. This is a natural state of being that is not earned from repressing or pursuing anything. Love will pursue you. You have 'allowed' pure love to flow to it's own destiny.  

Me : So, my mountain dreams played the most the important part ? Even if I don't have what I visualised ?

Voice : You get what you feel. 

Me : Oh

Voice : One can go higher by allowing oneself to go beyond imagination. 

Me : Meaning ? 

Voice : For those detached, images have no meaning. The heart only lives with the feeling. That way what you have or don't have in the world of forms doesn't matter. Mountains were your impression of freedom and unbounded peace only because of your sense of imprisonment at that time. But, overtime you have grown to inner freedom and joy in the present moment. The clutches of future have lost it's power of you.   

     

Me : Hmm. Okay so tell me if God is represented in so many 'visual versions' and if I hold any image of God in my mind, I can possibly get something else??

Voice : You hold God not in your mind, but in your heart. God is not Him or Her or It. The feeling you hold in your heart - that is His real version.The truest version of your life will always be in what you constantly feel.

Me : Wow

Voice : Humanity has been taught to pursue dreams. I help you transcend the imaginary. 

Me : As always, talking to you feels so good. 

Voice : ...As good as it feels like the warmth of a fire on a cold winter night in the mountains?    

      

Me : Haha. Actually yes!

Voice : Raising your consciousness brought you to know the futility of the pursuit for happiness outside of you. 

  

Your abode in the Himalayas is truly manifesting, but in the serenity of your heart - where everything exists.
