She is beyond good and evil



I had a really freaking weird dream last night. It was so weird that when I woke up my body felt like jelly and I had the strangest feeling that other people had just had the same dream.

In my dream I had gone to visit this new wave religious leader that everyone was really into. I was fairly confident that it was going to be a load of rubbish so when I got there and it was in a really average looking office block I was not that impressed. I was met by a dark haired woman in her thirties, dressed in a power suit. She looked a little like Miss Silk my GCSE Chemistry teacher who had really hated my guts and kept me in detention more than most other teachers at school. The woman was supposed to be some sort of medium; she sat me down and started to go into a trance. Within seconds I could feel that she had taken possession of my entire body and was controlling my actions and thought. I could hear her voice in my head and she was saying "I am beyond good and evil, I am become god" over and over again. I was fitting violently and the chairs and other furniture in the room had risen up of the floor and were circling around me, shaking and fitting to the same rhythm as myself. I knew instinctively that this woman who was controlling me had completely lost her mind and that she was going to have me kill everyone I knew and eventually kill myself. As I was looking at her she would sometimes appear as a woman and sometimes as a mannequin with a deranged blurred grin.

I woke up and my wife was grinding her teeth in the dark.

What she said reminded me of a quote I once heard from Robert Oppenheimer about the awful power that he felt on the testing the atomic bomb. He recalled the Bhagavad-Gita: "If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one." and "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."
