《Guru’s Talk》
The Dreams of a Coma Patient

(From Book 177: Stories About Seeing Deities and Ghosts)

(Continued from issue 534)

In his dream, the coma patient became the Advisory Counsellor at the Presidential Palace. At the Presidential Palace, he was presented with a certificate proclaiming him to be the Advisory Counsellor. On that day, the comatose man dressed neatly, in a freshly-pressed business suit, his shoes brightly polished. The comatose man shook hands with the president.

The title of Presidential Advisor, even though it was not the title of a powerful official, brought the comatose man much glory in his hometown and much honour to his family. That was quite okay with him.

When the dreaming comatose man pulled out his business cards from his pocket and saw his name with the title of “Advisory Counsellor to the Presidential Palace,” he chuckled to himself. It certainly made him feel like the celebrity of celebrities!

In his dream, I could see the comatose man smiling, his mouth moving and lifting a little to form the smile. It could be said that this was a smile in a sorrowful state.

The fourth scene:

Another two ghosts appeared, transformed into the comatose man’s creditors. They represented all of his creditors. They entered the man’s crown chakra. These ghosts intended to collect the debt owed by the comatose man.

The comatose man had once managed a company, very poorly; he lost all the company’s money. The company’s creditors had seen very unhappy. The man’s assets were more than sufficient to pay off all of the debts, with money left over. But he had refused to pay the debts and so did not.

The two creditor ghosts discussed the matter with each other but could reach no resolution. They were very angry.

The comatose man was also very angry. He said, “You scoundrels want my money! Don’t you know that I am the Advisory Counsellor at the Presidential Palace?! I’m going to pound you!”

Then the three men were fighting, all tangled together.

Both sides were injured. The dream ended.

I also saw animal spirits entering the comatose man’s crown chakra. These dreams were much more strange, upside down and downside up. And there were even more confusing, more weird dreams. They can never be described in detail...

At this moment, I discovered that the truth was that the comatose man had apparently been lying there like a vegetable, yet in the narrow space of his brain, all of his emotions were active, at any moment. The worldly people never know about this. They always consider the coma patient to be in a silent world, with no awareness, with no senses. Someone in a coma is thought to be apart from the rushing, busy-ness of the competitive world.
