I had a very strange dream this night that I would like to talk about.
It all started with me trying to meditte to relax and fall asleep last night. I make the resolution to have fun and enjoy the present moment which helped me to stay in the moent and not wandering off to either the past or the future.
Then I fell asleep and started dreaming(not knowing how much I had slept before I started dreaming :)) that I was a buddhist monk in Bodhinyana Buddist Monastery in Western Austalia (near the big city Perth) and living beside the famous monk Ajahn Brahm who is currently the abbot of that monastery.
I also dreamt that it was some conflicts going on with the monks there and that we did some chanting which you do in Buddhist monasteries.
Then I suddenly woked up and thougt I had slept very long, but found that it was before 5 in the morning.
I was to relaxed and energetic to fall asleep again as I usually do, so I find only one opportunity to do and that was to get up and eat some breakfast. This was also strange because I usually feel very drowsy and tired in the mornings and have difficulty to get up and now it felt like the only opportunity I had.
Then I listened to a short dhamma talk and a guided meditation by Bhante Bodhidhaja which was published earlier today and he is currently staying in Bodhinyana Monastery which I dreamt I was a monk at.
Here is the link to the talk:

It was quite a good talk and maybe I will clearly and thoroughly think about becoming a monk one day :)
I think I will be a very happy monk then :)
