Are we destined to become Creators?,
Who was the Serpent?,
How is the Dream Realm related to all of this?

So many questions, so few answers, but I find it fun thinking about this sort of stuff.

I finish the episode off, by reading a chapter from the book ‘The Impersonal Life by Joseph S. Benner’.

Hope you find this one thought provoking.
