Chuang Tsu was an ancient Chinese Philosopher (died in about BC 250), he and Lao Tsu are two major masters in Taoism!. They are well known to the people in East Asian countries like China, Korea, and Japan!. And I think, in these days, they are very well known to western people too!. But I’m not sure ‘a butterfly’s dream’ is also familiar to you!. So I would like to introduce you the story!. Le guin keep quoted his and Lao tsu’s epigrams, but she did not introduce this story in her novel!. (But I’m sure she got some motif from it) The story goes like this: One day Chuang tsu had a long long dream, (long dreams are very popular motif in ancient Asian stories, and they are too long so the dreamer can not realize easily they were just dreams) in the dream, he became a butterfly!. He had fun while he was flying from flowers to flowers!. After he woke up, he could not make himself sure, whether he became butterfly in his dream, or a butterfly became Chuang tsu in the butterfly’s dream!. There was nobody who can prove that he’s not in a butterfly’s dream but a butterfly was in his dream!. By that he realized there is no distinction between dream and reality!.

I live an alternate astral and a spiritual life!. It is the bondship of Godhood and follows me where so I may roam!. For this reason I am held in confinement, I am, what others observe and conclude is based upon their perception and intuition!. I wage war and battle in all realms!. I morph daily and have done so all my life, yet remain the fundamental person I am in all realms, physical, spiritual or astral!. I am, the enemy stalking me has not changed nor has storyline!. Fate I think it is called!. When one can see the orchestrator of one’s life writing and engineering it becomes difficult to take anything seriously!. Many live as I do but do not discuss their alternate lives usually because some gaining liberation and release behave in a manner unfitting to the role they assume and therefore cannot corroborate their external existence for reasons of misappropriation, misbehaviour and such!. Some fall when given full freedom!. The same said forces seeking to defame and oppress in the physical world are the same in other worlds!. Of course I have neither evidence nor you of my existence!. Few are able to reconcile their existence on all three planes!. I read somewhere earths battles lost is Eden fallen and my heart sank!. The ethos of gaining salvation post death is inconclusive it seems, it should be a spirit supplicated or reconciled is released whilst living and upon death!. Know this, release requires reconciliation, submission or a firm resolute stand!. We are all particles of the Great Spirit, few with a higher density of spiritual absorption resulting greater reasoning powers and power of will!.

The war for peace and liberty goes on !.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
