Sacred Stories

She sent email sharing a funny experience:

While lying in a yoga pose listening to a friend/spiritual teacher’s (Barbara’s) instructions, recorded at retreat the previous day, almost falling asleep, the phone rang.

Strange.

It said the call was from Barbara.

How could she be calling while I am listening to her giving a talk? It was almost an out-of-body experience.

I answered the phone and indeed it was Barbara!

Duh!

I told her about it and she thought it was funny, too! (Sort of like dreams I wake up from, feeling they’re so real, that people are with me in the house, so I go to the back bathroom instead of the one I usually go to so that I don’t wake them up! And then I see that no one is there!)

The world of reality has its limits; the world of imagination is boundless.
~ Jean Jacques Rousseau
