The dream today. The maker of snow
"The path of dreams is unpopular and can oppose or make the difference between" psychological "and dreams. Current thinking identifies or associates, and not without reason, the psychologist or psychoanalyst to the man who has the power. I know the anguish that is tied in front of you when you're a psychiatrist and that crushes you right away, overwhelms you that your complex.
The dream is the opposite. If someone comes with a dream, we kneel before the dream, ie to the person in front of the dream. It is the dream which is the master, not us.'s dream is the anti-power, the dream is the power of life, the dream is freedom and liberation of life in us. The path of dreams is the path to liberation that we requested from the East, but is impractical as the East teaches us, because we are Westerners, and that we need to find moisture and vibrant images.
There is a man, a very important figure to me this is Krishnamurti. Krishnamurti denies the dream, he wants to free life without the dream. I've tried, I know the way to K., is impracticable. Similarly mysticism. you talked to Marie-Madeleine Davy earlier, I know his work and I esteem very much.
I could say that, basically, my wife and I are Christian formation, we know bienli Christian mysticism. but Christian mysticism, is the past. We can not live today John of the Cross, we can not live today Teresa of Avila. The first reason is that these people excluded the devil.
But the devil is one of the first realities that confront us in dreams, that's what we do not want is what is called evil. We learn that good and evil are complementary as in chinoix the YIN and the YANG.
evil is not something to dismiss in outer darkness. We have evidence to participate in the restoration of the mystical path, but a concrete way, one way livable for people today. "

How To Write A Film Treatment Template
It is a time to discuss the preparation of the stone of wisdom, what we are discussing today is its mode of action. This action is the radiation noise, the action of active non-Oriental is the action of snow maker Chiao Chu. Most of my readers know the story of CG Jung was fond of quoting. He held himself by Richard Wilhelm, translator of Ching, who had witnessed and one of the protagonists. Yet it seems good to transcribe here. Such stories, like fairy tales and sacred texts, contain in themselves a power effective. they carry their blessings and renew the repetition effect. Here's the story as told by our father in alchemy.
" There was a great drought in the town where Richard Wilhelm was staying, for months he did not fall a drop of rain and the situation became catastrophic Catholics made processions, the Protestants made prayers, and chinoix burned incense sticks and fired gunshots to scare away the demons of drought. Chinoix finally said to themselves: "Let's get the rainmaker." And it came from a remote province. He was an emaciated old man. He said the only thing he wanted was that it makes available a small house alone and he shut himself up for three days. the fourth day, the clouds piled, and there came a heavy snowfall at a time of year when no snow was expected, and unusual amount.
So many rumors circulated about this extraordinary rainmaker that Wilhelm went to see man and asked him how he had done. In good European said: "They call you rainmaker, can you tell me how you produced the snow?" The small chinoix replied: "I did not snow, I am not responsible."
"But what did you do during those three days?"
"Oh, that I can explain it to you is simple. I come from a country where things are as they should be. Here things are not in order, they are not as they should be according to the celestial order, so the whole country is it out of the Tao. I was not in the natural order of things, because I was in a country that was not in order, so the only thing I had to do was to wait three days until I find myself in the Tao, and then of course the Tao made snow.
