    I don't remember a lot of the details of my dream, but something happened where this small elephant (I think) statue needed "Avatar" to hug it and it would become one object. The Avatar thing I can explain- last night, I was reading about a movie where one of the character's name was Avatar and looked up the traditional meaning of the word (in that case, it meant a human incarnation of Vishnu). And then someone said something about how in Hell your entire body, including your organs, start twitching. But the thing was that in the dream, it was a given that people reincarnated. So where did Hell come from?

    The odd thing is that I don't really have a strong opinion about where you go after you die, I just live under the assumption that there's probably something. It's something I think about, but it's not as huge a part of my life as it is for some, if not most, people. So I don't know how it came into my dream.

    where does anything come form? everything comes from forever. it is good there are trippy things in dreams. it is good to thank all things that there are. especialy diversity and straingeness itself.

    many say god is love. yet i wonder if maybe this is close but no cegar, and what god really is is straingeness.

    straingeness is also love in a way only that's just not the whole focus of what it is.

    I am not sure what the message of your dream was for you, but it is encouraging that you are thinking about it more deeply. Sometimes that's all you need to do, and it helps.

    Hell is the waystation one waits in before being re-incarnated. Think of it as a prison where you serve your time until you're rehabilitated, then you're released back into the general population.

    only the bardo isn't any more or less of a hell then your own inner perspectives make of it. in a sense that is the reward and punishment aspect of it. not that we are judged but rather that our own approaches, our ways of thinking and acting and looking at things, make, and ultimately are, our own 'heaven and hell'.

    I like to tell myself that trippy dreams are the result of a rich waking life and a fertile imagination. My dreams are often very trippy. So if you get any helpful answers, please share them because I'm curious about this myself.

    i think the most helpful answer is that people expect way too much, and often the wrong things at that, from almost everything.

    what is our fortune to enjoy; enjoy. the chance you have to do so is the chance you have when you do.

    though also the odds are mutable and we CAN make them worse or better.
