a dream before dawn
Syam and i awaken and move to the front room with large picture windows
overlooking a pastoralgarden like view with a river comingin the distance
and coming past the right of the house in the pre dusk murky hour as i open
the breezeway door a group of wild horses gallop by and leap across the river
Look! Syam, look! Now others are coming in also, including Rsabdev's
. daughters and girlfriends.They have mystical powers and fool around with them.
Syam suggests everyone do giatri now.i sit on a couch and Rsabdev joins me.
As i begin the daughter begins to move the skin around my cheeks with subtle
powers watched by Caroline,(who earlier offered me her respectful obeisances)
Attempting to continue my giatri however annoyed thinking ,"i'll deal with these
ladies when i'm through.When i was completed i reprimanded the daughter
saying you can't mess around when i'm doing gayatri.She replied sassily,"this
is my house." i replied , clutching her throat,"This is my body."She got it.Now it is
day break and out the window there is men opperating equipment to get a large boat
to head down the river from the house. i look to see how wide the river is by day
to see how far those horses jumped,
Sudar was in another room, and he threw me something(edible?) i don't remember
if i cared for it or not.i talked with Lekha about kid's behavior and how i deal with it.
Then going to a large open window with a wooden plank displaying wears are many tulsi strands.
The vedor looks at me and says,"how come you are so dark? I say from doing Gayatri
mantra in the sun.it becomes clear to me if i want to do Gayatri mantra undisterbed
by these mischievious little mtstical girls i need some black Tulasi strands to keep them
out of my domain..
