Celestial Phantasy

The Old God Xuan Wu was flying high on his daily route. Neither attached nor detached he felt just fine in his ethereal being free from the stratospheric charms. Why worry, he didn't even think about his own creation - the Xuan Wu Tian - Heaven of his own design. Beside him - two Dakinis, the Revealers of Manifestations - perfectly in tune with their ancient roles.


The Old God Xuan Wu had only one thought - how high he was. And he was indeed very high where only the highest of clouds can be seen - beyond is space.


Ahead, there was radiating some golden glitter - as though a golden fountain was erupting from some source. The Dakini Ai noticed first and the Dakini Shi Zhu was second one to notice - they will argue about that later over the cup of heavenly nectar pervaded only in the Xuan Wu Heaven.


As it turned out upon a closer examination - some 100 000 li away there was a magnificent being - the Golden Dragon of the Gate taking his monthly Chi Bath in the Spacial Chi Currents That Renew Life. The Golden Dragon of the Gate was so happy that his long golden mustache were all over the place as he was laughing out loud to himself about only what his Dragon mind knew what.


The Old God Xuan Wu had a compelling thought "He believes love is greater than power?"...
As if hearing his thoughts the Golden Dragon of the Gate approached and greeted a being equal - "Greetings! What brings you out of the esteemed heaven out into this space oh Old God Xuan Wu?"" And who are your beautiful consorts?" Xuan Wu laughed with pleasure as he viewed the eyes ever full of fire of the Dragon who was there for millions of years. "Oh the respected Golden Dragon, what can we discuss being as perfect as we are?" "My two lovely consorts are the Celestial Dakinis Ai and Shi Zhu who are known for their creative and martial prowess and know how to please the spacial mechanisms as well as the ethereal and terrestrial chthonic sources!" They are my great advisors and without them I don't like to travel!"


"That is a great news indeed!" exclaimed the Golden Dragon of the Gate. "As my Supracelestial vision has been improving I see more and more sense in just being!" "It is as though I have never been born - which I haven't! I perceive only what is and what isn't is unmanifested under the cover of space! Wonderful indeed!"


To that Old God Xuan Wu replied,


"Wondrous indeed! Although I have never been interested in viewing the perceived causes, to me it is fine that things are being what they are, as their manifestation is a fine design that is self-revealing  on a positive scale!"


"Oh well now the respected God!", have interjected the Golden Dragon of the Gate, "Are you saying that the destructive Lowly Ignorant Myths that have threatened to consume the Universe, which is impossible a long time ago are non-existent?"


With laughter, the Old God replied, "The Lowly Ignorant Myths my dear Celestial Colleague are as you know are a non-result of consumption that the Celestials have to face during their prolonged existence!" That simply means that we have to expect the Myths to be what they are, as our Hour of Zenith is non-existent. Ha ha ha ha!!"


As the Golden Dragon was choking with laughter, the two Dakinis were busy listening and discussing the already known facts. Ai said "Well, then if everything is in such a pervasive state of non-flux, why Xuan Wu hasn't retired yet? He is still as active as if the womb of the Nebula Tsa has manifested him only a million years ago? He is such a Child of his Ancestors!" To which Dakini Shi Zhu replied knowingly "The Non-Existent is in the constant non-flux, thus the Golden Dragon of the Gate is always dancing in his interaction with the Perfect Dragon Realm of the Interior Celestial Dance Hall."


This caused quite a stir, and for many thousands of years the group would be willing to admit that there is the Inner Dragon Realm, of which the Golden Dragon of the Gate is the Power Evolving and Promoting Host ....
