ABSTRACT

Well, we began to discuss this dream and did not finish it. It is a pretty involved situation. You remember we spoke of the fact that after the dream before, one could expect something to happen, and one assumed that now things were ready, now the machine could function. But instead comes an entirely new situation. Evidently the dreamer has begun to function more or less, and then an obstacle-an obstacle in the church to which he went as a little boy. He has gone back from the present moment to his eleventh or twelfth year, so we may expect that there is a reason why he cannot move on, why the machine, despite the fact that it is ready, will not function yet; there seems to be something in his path which prevents it. Sure enough, there is a certain attitude which probably originated in about his eleventh or twelfth year.
