After taking an evening nap on the floor at a friend's house, a group of comrades drop by. The heart-worker DJ Martina calls her dog Atta into the room and we all eat banitza together (a kind of filo dough baked cheeze pastry). Atta scurries in and stands by me, I pet him and he flashes me a look of confusion which says "why did she call me?" "I don't know" I shrug in reply. Ok, I talked with a dog.

Looking around the room at the group of comrades I see how they sit with themselves, some have children, I watched how they deal with them, maybe a streak of sadism is hidden in the fathers. Seeing the glow in one's face I see the potential in him.

A voice inside me answers this negativity saying;

"What they could be, what the devine intended,
That seed inside them, unwatered
Constantly whispering hoarsely
For a drop of rain.
That wild horse that used to run with God
Fidgets inside them, anxious wanting."

So the dog and I understood something together that I imagined they didn't understand. I once (and they may now as they sit with their joints) reasoning asked myself "are not dogs superior to humans because they are pure intent?"

Looking at the others now I dismiss them thinking "bah, smoke ring blowers."

A voice inside me answers chiding me;

“That dogs are superior! That is only said by those who sit in their bodies and imagine all needs are satisfied. To understand man's potential is to know that compared to dogs we are as an ocean to a cup of water. We can become gods. "

The voice continues, "Becoming gods does not mean the absolute rule of the ego but rather the death of it. Loving all reality as God and being the hand of devine love in this life. "

The voice uses a memory of mine to illustrate its point saying "years ago you heard people say of a certain master "just being in the room with her you can feel her burning your karma, purifying your higher self, evolving you." They said that because they couldn't see what she (this master) was doing; she loves you, sees your potential and without words is working on improving you, easing your suffering. Imagine how much further things might progress if you yourself became concious of your own mind, stopped focusing on trivialities and actively worked to improve yourself. Your participation is the key to real progress. What she gives you is just a small gift.”
