Savior Of Mankind

I have a dream. The savior of mankind said to me “Let the world know I’m coming.”

A true story about the collection:

In late 2018, I stumbled upon a captivating case study discussing the concept that plants and trees possess a form of consciousness and can potentially sense human thoughts. Initially, I approached this idea with skepticism and decided to conduct a lighthearted experiment for curiosity's sake. On a particular evening, just before I retired to sleep, I engaged in a silent prayer to the natural world and the universe, uttering the words, 'If you can hear me,' I said, 'make me a believer and send me a message in my dream regarding what to paint.'

That night, my dream transported me to a mythical forest, where I encountered an elderly Renaissance figure who greeted me with a gentle smile. He extended his left hand to reveal a gleaming golden key, inviting me to follow him. As we approached a cave, the vine-covered rock walls transformed into a towering golden gate, approximately twenty feet in height. With the golden key, the old man unlocked the gate and encouraged me to enter, despite my initial hesitation. Inside, I found darkness and emptiness, but the old man's unwavering sincerity compelled me to trust him. Crossing over, I suddenly found myself in a radiant forest adorned with golden trees and leaves, exuding an aura of tranquility and safety.

However, my sense of serenity was disrupted when I noticed a shadowy, colossal rock mountain in the shape of an imposing alpha figure, gazing down at me disapprovingly. The rock mountain figure raised its head, a halo emerged from behind, and the cloudy sky underwent a dynamic time-lapse transformation. It exuded an aura of immense power, divinity, and benevolence. With translucent hands, the figure made a gesture and declared, 'Let the world know I'm coming.'

Upon waking, I promptly retrieved my sketchbook and documented this extraordinary dream. Later that day, I shared this remarkable story with my wife, who informed me that Saint Peter is often associated with holding the golden key to the kingdom of heaven. This revelation left me astounded, prompting me to embark on a quest for deeper understanding. This experience led me to ponder the possibility that if everything is energy, could nature and the universe indeed possess the capacity to sense our thoughts?
