																			Valley 
																			of 
																			Flower 
																			Path 
																			to 
																			Light 
																			
																			
																			
																			The 
																			collection 
																			is 
																			an 
																			interpretation 
																			of 
																			ten 
																			years’ 
																			worth 
																			of 
																			dreaming 
																			that 
																			heralded 
																			to 
																			Iman 
																			signs 
																			and 
																			dimensions 
																			of 
																			life 
																			after 
																			physical 
																			death; 
																			the 
																			last 
																			of 
																			such 
																			dreams 
																			containing 
																			clear 
																			definitions 
																			and 
																			proper 
																			placements 
																			of 
																			all 
																			preceding 
																			elements 
																			in a 
																			clear 
																			path 
																			pointing 
																			to 
																			Light. 
																			An 
																			image 
																			of a 
																			traveler 
																			setting 
																			foot 
																			unto 
																			the 
																			other 
																			world 
																			to 
																			join 
																			the 
																			Light 
																			or 
																			the 
																			truth 
																			of 
																			universe. 
																			In 
																			the 
																			beginning, 
																			he 
																			faces 
																			gates 
																			that 
																			for 
																			passing 
																			through 
																			them 
																			he 
																			has 
																			to 
																			let 
																			go 
																			of 
																			the 
																			actualities 
																			of 
																			today’s 
																			world 
																			together 
																			with 
																			all 
																			its 
																			attachments, 
																			to 
																			remove 
																			all 
																			material 
																			images 
																			of 
																			his 
																			mind 
																			until 
																			material 
																			bounds 
																			get 
																			smaller 
																			and 
																			eventually 
																			disappear 
																			so 
																			that 
																			he 
																			can 
																			pass 
																			through 
																			the 
																			corridor 
																			of 
																			time 
																			and 
																			make 
																			seconds 
																			meaningless; 
																			because 
																			eternal 
																			life 
																			will 
																			only 
																			be 
																			possible 
																			after 
																			such 
																			an 
																			act. 
																			Plenty 
																			is a 
																			quality 
																			of 
																			life 
																			in 
																			Paradise, 
																			where 
																			pomegranate 
																			orchards 
																			and 
																			hills 
																			small 
																			and 
																			large 
																			paint 
																			its 
																			vast 
																			plains 
																			in 
																			line 
																			with 
																			light. 
																			Yet 
																			the 
																			traveler 
																			wants 
																			more. 
																			He 
																			is 
																			thinking 
																			of 
																			the 
																			perfection 
																			of 
																			paradise 
																			to 
																			reach 
																			the 
																			Light; 
																			in 
																			his 
																			mind, 
																			paradise 
																			is 
																			to 
																			Light 
																			what 
																			earth 
																			is 
																			to 
																			the 
																			paradise. 
																			So 
																			he 
																			puts 
																			it 
																			behind 
																			too, 
																			to 
																			reach 
																			the 
																			valley 
																			of 
																			flower, 
																			where 
																			the 
																			drop, 
																			the 
																			rain 
																			and 
																			the 
																			cloud 
																			give 
																			life, 
																			and 
																			living 
																			is 
																			made 
																			on 
																			the 
																			Light 
																			coming 
																			from 
																			afar 
																			(although 
																			he 
																			does 
																			not 
																			belong 
																			to 
																			it 
																			either). 
																			He 
																			rises 
																			higher 
																			and 
																			higher 
																			into 
																			the 
																			Sky. 
																			His 
																			ultimate 
																			concern 
																			is 
																			to 
																			let 
																			go 
																			of 
																			his 
																			existence 
																			and 
																			the 
																			feeling 
																			of 
																			comfort 
																			gained 
																			in a 
																			safe 
																			and 
																			quiet 
																			place 
																			for 
																			the 
																			sake 
																			knowledge 
																			in 
																			order 
																			to 
																			become 
																			one 
																			with 
																			the 
																			Light.
