LONG PAUSE And as you lavish in the covers, feel your body melting in relaxation. LONG PAUSE And as you feel your body relax, let your mind open to visions and dreams. LONG PAUSE Take a moment and find yourself in an art gallery, with magnificently high ceilings, and hundreds of paintings adorning the walls. PAUSE It’s the middle of the night and you can see  thousands of glistening stars through the glass ceiling. PAUSE You’re standing in the center of a large hall, next to marble statue of a discus thrower, a young Grecian man, bathed in soft moonlight. PAUSE The statue is milky smooth on the surface, with fine, pristine details  of the face and body, and muscles sculpted  with perfection. PAUSE The discus thrower looks as if he’s coiled up and  ready to release all of human kind’s potential in a single throw. PAUSE You close your eyes and imagine the discus player coming to life  and releasing his discus. PAUSE The discus is unleashed  into the night sky, flying higher and higher until it’s out of sight. PAUSE As you gaze the discus thrower, the milky smooth marble softens into skin, and the discus thrower takes your hand and pulls you onto the platform. PAUSE He smiles, brushes a tuft  of chestnut hair  from his brow and raises his arm. PAUSE With his arms in the air, figures from the paintings gingerly step out and onto the floor. Sculptures unwind and walk about. PAUSE The air is perfumed with the fragrance  of sweet wildflowers and freshly baked bread  as well as dusting powder and cologne,  all from the figures  in the artwork. PAUSE A barmaid stops by the platform sharing goblets of wine with you and the discus thrower. She moves about the gallery offering her elixir to all. PAUSE You sip the wine enjoying its taste  and the warm feeling of relaxation it brings. PAUSE Then, a woman  with resplendent honey-color hair trots a dapple gray mare through the hall, proud and stately. PAUSE The women smiles  and pauses to  tap goblets  with the discus player, then with you, before trotting off to somewhere else. PAUSE Around the hallway, you notice that  figures from the art, are now real people, that stop and chat  with one another, embrace and laugh just like dear friends. PAUSE Two fishermen walk by with a casting net in their arms and the discus thrower asks where their boat is. PAUSE  The fishers laugh and point to a wall where a brown wooden boat with sails like canopies sits in the middle  of a painting. PAUSE In the distance, you notice a man with  a gray bowler hat  and pinstripe suit waltzes with a woman with pink ribbons  in her hair and dress. It’s so beautiful. PAUSE And while watching  the figures from the art come together, there’s an understanding of community of how everyone contributes– how everyone gives something back. PAUSE After a moment, you notice the discus thrower standing up on the platform, and his discus slowly returning  to his hand. PAUSE The discus thrower gently leads you off the platform then repositions himself just as he was when you first saw him. PAUSE Gradually, then,  the other pieces of art quietly reassemble themselves, blending back into paintings, and recreating their poses  as sculptures.
