So our Dreams try to put us into the Practice of 'walking away' from the things we lose.
But you haven't been walking away, have you? The trick is to NEVER look back. ASSUME that once something is lost, or that you have separated from something or someone in a Dream, that you should simply say \"Screwit\" and move on. New Things to have; More People to meet.
Now, once this Wisdom is acquired, we find that that not all is lost. I remember in one dream, I lost my bearings when I had a business appointment. I looked around at a City full of Identical Buildings and just said to myself, after long experience, \"Screwit\". Then, almost instantly a young woman approached me and said, \"Oh, Mr. Volont, it is so nice to see you again, but aren't you almost late for your appointment\". And she pointed out the correct building. In another dream, I lost my sleeping bag, and began to look for it when I remembered my Resolution never to look for anything in a Dream, and, guess what, it was laying on the floor near the door as I was leaving.
Thank you for your reply. That does make more sense to me, but as i am dreaming wouldnt i find it difficult to just NOT look when my mind is telling me to do otherwise?
