Be not afraid on this new leg of your journey. Be not afraid ever, whatever leg of this eternal existence you embark upon. Of what is there to be afraid? There be no dragons. These exist only in the mind. “No, I see them!” you cry. “They are all around me!” Then slay them with your mind as well. When you understand that the only reality is Spirit, which is pure consciousness, then you create and destroy your demons with the same.
Nothing can harm the real you. Such power comes with this awareness! Imaginary dragons may snap at your imaginary feet, and you can laugh or cry. It is your choice. Inside it is always peaceful, always now. When faced with perceived turmoil, return inside right now to the ever-present peace and smile.
Reminds one that there is a form of vivid dream that has reportedly killed some in primitive Asian-Pacific Island cultures…yet there the dragon is largely an auspicious symbol, while in the West we have St George killing some serpent-like nasty thing…in my own anthropological studies I remember once dreaming of a nasty serpent thing pursuing me and biting my foot: when I awoke I had a bruise crescent on my heel — such can be the power of mind and dreams
These words truly hit home. I allow thoughts,mostly uncomfortable thoughts to take root . I need to learn how to slay them and not allow them to fester. Thank you. Imaginary dragons came on the right day for me.
