Namaste,
I have held on to this for awhile but now feel I must share. Last November I had a very troubling dream. I was near a river and there were dying animals, mostly goats all around me. Many goats were in pieces and they were all asking for my help. I felt very overwhelmed and wanted to help but could do nothing. When I awoke I could not shake the sadness of the dream for many hours, it seemed so real. When I went on with my day I checked the news and was shocked to see that the animal slaughter in Nepal had been happening as I slept. I was in shock!
I have tried very hard to understand why I was given this dream. I am very kind to animals and am an ardent vegetarian. Was I being told to do more to save animals? Was I feeling the karmic impact of this action all the way across the globe? After meditating on this I still have no answer so I am turning to you for possible explanations. Many thanks.
Om Shanti,
James
