imagine, *know* what you exactly & really want, strongly desire, strongly wish for, very strongly, while imagining places or faces or moments associated with that knowledge that is more embodied truth than factual statement. Which, again, reminds me of Michael Ende's The Neverending Story,
where AURYN's power comes from our capacity to imagine fruitfully -- 'do what you wish'; bring what you imagine into reality (simply wishing is not enough; you have to will that reality into existence through yourself). Of course, what we can imagine is the outcome of our memories
--> so the past is constantly being eaten by the future in an Ouroboric circle. That's the journey to rebirth, because you yourself must transform in the process of creating the reality you seek. The darker side of the deal being that what we imagine can equally destroy us.
