Is Dorthy everyman or everywoman? Are you in a strange place that dosn't feel like home? Were you sent to the wizards,only to be given words on paper, a metal medal, & a promise only to find he was a fake? Have you ever fallen asleep on the path? Why does the wicked witch use fire to keep you from advancing? What is in the nature of water to melt the illusion of wickedness? What was the only thing Dorthy needed to do to be home? Is this story history? Do you see any "truth" in this story? How is that possible? Could it be that the "Truth" is in you?

A modern myth. Where the story of everyone is told. And yet so few get it. Thank you all for your answers.

Oh yes, Dorothy, the Gift of God, following her animal nature, getting caught up in the cycle of birth and death. Seeking the Wizard, who cannot give us what is already ours. Killing the wicked witch of the east, signifying the last cycle of birth in Oz(3 dimensional reality) and finally killing the wicked witch of the west,which signifies conquering the fear of death. There is so much more, good question. Dorothy is everyone.

I see you have your eyes open :-)
And the more you open them the more you see the truth in all things created by man... he is trying to wake himself up isn't he? and you see it!
Inside you the light is surly growing. I hope you took Sunman’s advise and took a look at Thoth, the emerald tablets of!
I “believe” in NOTHING! I must know and understand everything... but remember the darkness is all around us and you need check everything against what is inside you. For in there is the only truth... but here is the catch of knowing yourself. Until you know yourself much of the world of men will mix truth with lies. This is where finding "a place of rest” becomes the first most important goal!" when you can "rest" your mind it will know the truth! So tools like meditation etc are very helpful to achieve this but know that resting the mind is your birth right... it is the world of men that has confuse it so you will continue to work for them!

Hi,Cosmicdrifter person,
Yes,the truth is in you.
It is your guiding light.
Accept the direction it is showing you with your heart and soul,and you will be true to yourself. That truth will consume you,envelope you,spill out of you and guide,by your example,other people to wherever your emerald city may be.
Love and peace,
Misterviv

You ask many interesting questions, Grasshopper. Do not look for answers, rather look inside your own heart, for there lies the true yellow brick road.
