i too have just watched the videos and the one thing that struck me flat was david's descriptions of his dreams. i have always had extremely vivid dreams and have seen (or been shown things) things that i've had a really hard time wrapping words around. i have also experienced some really far out things before and after meditating. it's enough to make you question your own mental stability when you are the only one in your immediate environment having these kinds of experiences. my oldest daughter is starting to dream like i do, but it's easy to chalk it all up to weird genetics. it is so comforting to me to hear so many of my own experiences come out of the mouth of someone else. someone i do not know and am not related to. i also live in alabama, which is fundamentalist christian central. that means i have very few people in which to share my experiences (thinking outside the southern baptist box here can make you a bit unpopular). and when you have these experiences, you do want to share them with someone! i'm especially intrigued with david's description of an old lady wearing purple in his dream. i have dreamed (actually it was a lucid dream) where i walked up a spiral staircase and met with an old lady. i asked her a couple of questions and she left. she turned into what looked like a purple vapor that dissipated away. i'm wondering about the significance of the color purple. if you or anyone else reading this has also seen something similar to this please let me know. so yeah, the videos were a joy to watch. it's one thing to sit down and write about having experiences like that, but to sit in front of a camera with a group of people in the room that don't know you that well and say it and then stick it on the internet takes courage, and i'm glad david has that courage. lots of love to you lorenzo, krista
