Jessica’s character in The Merchant of Venice starts out as an unfortunate one; however, she experiences a different position at the end of the play. Jessica is the daughter of a Jew, named Shylock. He is a money-lender in the area. Jessica lives with her father in a neighborhood that is not so great. The area is a Jewish slum, so to speak. Her freedom is also limiting at best.

Jessica lives under the rules of her Shylock her father, which she does not like. He reminds her to lock the doors and windows whenever he leaves home. As a result, she does not achieve permission to venture into the neighborhood because of the existing hostility towards Jews in such an era. Her father is the subject of harassment most of the time by Christians whenever he ventures outside the home to conduct business.

Jessica is not happy and she lives in frustration with her father, Shylock. She develops a relationship with a Christian male friend, Lorenzo. She plans to escape from her father’s home with Lorenzo, her boyfriend. She eventually escapes with a portion of her father’s money. She spends the money like the prodigal son. As such, she achieves some form a psychological independence in her soul. She is now free to do as she likes; wherever she wants. She develops the ethos of free spending and is enjoying the process without any complaints or restrictions, especially in an emerging capitalist society.

The significance of Jessica’s position is one of transformation. She transitions from an underdog living with restrictions to one of freedom and independence. Shylock, her father is a rich Jew. He is a wealthy money-lender who makes a profit. During a court trial, the judge orders that Jessica receives a percentage of his wealth. This occurs after he lost his case to collect on his bond against Antonio, The Merchant of Venice, while trying to get his pound of flesh from Antonia in court with a knife. Jessica eventually marries Lorenzo, her boyfriend, a Christian, and she a Jew. She converts to Christianity thorough her marriage to Lorenzo.

Jessica symbolizes the stereotypical rebelling female who dislikes her father’s rule. She is also similar to some females in this era rebelling against the rules of their parents. In essence, there exist no difference between the intent of children from the 17th century, and now, who are rebellious against their parents.

The overarching question is this: is the possible that Jessica be better off living with her father? According to the morals and theme of the play she probably would have. For example, especially when she is held in comparison with Portia, the main character of the play, who follows the rules of her father, who is not alive, and who establishes restrictions against Portia in his will. The moral of the story reveals one may achieve more by following instruction and obeying their parents, as in relation to not following instructions and rebelling against their parents.

The 2010 American Federal Census showed 15 million children being raised without a father and 5 million more children being raised without a mother. Twenty million children! To the detriment of our country and its children, we are seeing the results of so many fatherless children on the nightly news.

As previous owners of a number one rated restaurant, we’ve seen these results first hand; children without manners, children making the decisions for the adults at the table, public temper tantrums, and the list goes on.

An article from Fox News showed that without the benefit of a stable father in the home, the daughters of these families were sadly missing a paternal influence which showed them how to grow into decent young women. Further, their research showed that fatherless girls were highly susceptible to:

• Lack of self control.
• Outward displays of anger and belligerence.
• Looking for emotional connection, they ted to become sexually promiscuous.
• Becoming vulnerable to sexual exploitation from predators pretending to fill their emotional needs. Girls whose biological fathers are missing often go looking for the unconditional love and words of encouragement their fathers could have given them.
• Multiple marriages.

Sigmund Freud said, “I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father’s protection.”

Without a loving father’s influence an abandoned girl is also more likely to:

• Participate in school and neighborhood violence.
• Be prone to suicide.
• Drinking
• Drugging
• Drop our of school.

Yes, there are plenty of courageous single moms raising wonderful, contributing daughters to society, but the odds are not good.

Fatherless daughters suffer terribly from low self-esteem. Without her father’s reassurance, she experiences far-reaching consequences to her abandonment. She begins looking for that “OK” signal from boys, who may not have her best interest at heart.

“The human father has to be confronted and recognized as human, as a man who created a child and then, by his absence, left the child fatherless and then Godless.” Anais Nin.

The best thing we can teach our daughters is found in the bible. It is the father’s God-given responsibility to give wisdom and guidance to his beloved little girl. Proverbs 22:6 “Teach a child to choose the right path, and when he (she) is older he (she) will remain upon it.”

Normally a caring father would teach his daughter how to recognize a good man and ignore men who would be her downfall. By doing this, the father strengthens the family bonds and prevents family dysfunction. A father’s role in the family is vital.

In describing what a good man is, 1 Timothy 3: 2-5 A good man is one whose life cannot be spoken against. He must have only one wife, and he must be hard working and thoughtful, orderly, and full of good deeds. He must enjoy having guests in his home, and must be a good Bible teacher. He must not be a drinker or quarrelsome, but he must be gentle and kind, and not be one who loves money (to the exclusion of all else). He must have a well-behaved family, with children who obey quickly and quietly.”

In a fatherless home it now becomes the appointment of the mother to hold down a job, raise her daughter with good values, teach her about God and give her sound advice and direction. This is difficult at best. America needs its fathers to step up and be accountable.

Family dysfunction often begins with a missing biological father. I had one, my mom had one and her mother had one. The actions of all these father relatives of mine have harmed the women of my family. You can see that family dysfunction run wild for generations. Whether it was a father’s alcoholism or infidelity, these missing dads produced daughter in pain.

Let me leave these uplifting prescriptions for healing with you.

• Proverbs 31:30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain. (Meaning there’s more to a good life than a woman’s charm & beauty)
• Psalm 46: 5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God will help her when the morning dawns. (whether dad is present or missing, a woman always has a loving God to turn to)
• 1Timothy 4:12 Let no one despise you for your youth but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
• A mother’s treasure is her daughter. Catherine Pulsifer
• Good daughters make good mothers. Abagail G. Whittlesey
• A busy mother makes slothful daughters. Portuguese Proverb

God loves you and will help you heal your fatherless daughter.

Happy Father’s Day – You Deserve It

That’s right, you are entitled to celebrate and be celebrated on father’s day. You tried to do your best to provide your children with a decent life and now you are entitled to celebrate the fact that you are a father.

You did participate in bringing your children into the world, didn’t you?

You did try and give them the best education you could afford, didn’t you?

You did love and help care for them, didn’t you?

Now it’s your turn to be recognized for your efforts.

I think too often that us fathers are taken for granted. It is assumed that we will care for our children. It is assumed that we will pay attention to their needs and wants. But this isn’t true in all societies, and it certainly isn’t true in all species.

It makes sense to me that we do what we do as fathers because we want to. I think its part of an ingrained gene that God gave us to help make up part of the human family. I think it’s a special characteristic that we have been blessed with.

So lets celebrate the way we are on father’s day. And while we are doing so lets not forget our wonderful children who are the product of our efforts. And let’s not forget God who has given us the capacity to care about our family and our children.

Maybe if we are very lucky, our children won’t forget us either. Maybe they will help us celebrate being who we are. Maybe they will remember what we do for them, and how much we care.

It’s true I guess that some of us may be forgotten or even not truly appreciated for who we are and what we have done. But it really doesn’t matter because the proof of our efforts is in our children. It is undeniable. They are wonderful. We helped make them this way. God the father of us all has played a major part in this celebration of human life and renewal. Let’s not forget our Faith in Him who has made our day of celebration possible.

Have A Happy Father’s Day.

I picked this book up for two reasons. One, Jim is a billionaire investor who started the Quantum Fund with George Soros and two; he is an older father of two daughters. Jim has traveled the world and I was curious to see what advice he would leave his daughters.

Why is this important to me?

I am not doing this summary to waste your time. It is my vision to provide concise action steps that you can adopt right now to enhance your life. I am a big believer of OPE (Other People’s Expertize). If I can learn one thing to arrive at my goals faster, it is worth reading a book.

I want my money to work harder than I do. Jim has done this since he retired at 37 years old. He is a billionaire investor who knows how to maximize his time and he does not trade his hours for dollars. One way to truly understand his success is to understand the advice he gives to his kids.

There is really good advice through this book. For the sake of time, I am going to chat about three of the most important.

1. Rely on your own intelligence – Half of the knowledge that we know today will be proven wrong in the future. The path for knowledge looks like this, one, it is ridiculed, two, vehemently opposed and three, understood as pure truth. When somebody laughs at your idea then don’t despair because you may on to something great.

2. On investing: Attention to detail and do the work – If you are going to invest in a stock then read all the financial reports and examine the notes thoroughly. Call the company and talk with management, customers, competitors and employees. The more you know the better your chances of success. Doing the work is critical and this is where 90% of the people fail. It is very easy to simply slam money into an account and buy mutual funds based on a financial planner’s advice. The problem with doing this is the herd mentality. Sheep get slaughtered. As George S. Patton said, if everyone is thinking the same thing, somebody is not thinking.

3. Change always happens – One thing that is constant is change. Be a student of history because nothing is really new. It has happened before and you can craft the outcome by being a student of history. The great Tulip bubble is know different than the Internet boom and the housing bust. People got caught up in the hysteria and raw emotion / greed took over. This is the way all bubbles end. Really study change and understand that the more certain something is the less profitable it will be.

A Gift to My Children is a quick read with good advice. Jim Rogers is an interesting person. He has traveled the world and typically does his radio interviews on his tread mill. He understands that the most precious commodity is time and he does not waste it.

I hope you have found this short summary useful. The key to any new idea is to work it into your daily routine until it becomes habit. Habits form in as little as 21 days. One thing you can take away from this book is leverage OPE. I stress this in several of my book summaries because it is vitally important. Jim was retired at the age of 37 because he leveraged expertize as well. Tony Robins became a multimillionaire in his twenties because he leveraged his associations and the expertise of highly successful people who have attained the goals that he wanted.

This is a very well acted, drama with Isaiah Washington (Dr. Preston Burke in Grey’s Anatomy) as a catholic priest Father Andre James, who has come to a new school with some hidden secrets.

It turns out his predecessor has gone missing without any explanation for quite some time, hence the principal of the school Father William Jennings played by the gravely voiced Robert Loggia (Funny Money) has asked his old friend, Father Andre James to step in and fulfil the previous priest’s duties. Father James on the other hand has to impress the priests already there, notably Father Thomas Peters played by the stalwart Bob Gunton (Warden Norden in the Shawshank Redemption), and Father Alfred McKavee played by John Billingsley (Dr. Phlox in Star Trek: Enterprise).

There are the usual antics going on in an all male boarding school, or indeed any school for that matter, bullying, disrespect for their teachers, and looking at indecent magazines. Father James has to run the gauntlet of impressing not just the boys in the school but also his fellow clergymen, and in the midst of this tries to reach out to help one particular boy Parker Remy, played by Jordan Garrett who is a little cut-off from the rest of the boys, and is on medication. Father James would like to know the issues behind this, and would like to help the boy in any way he can. There is a lovely scene where the new priest tries to gain come camaraderie with Parker and the boys in general, he sits at Parker’s table during lunch, and asks if the food is any good, Parker replies that it is not, Father James then says food this bad is only good for one thing, and soon afterwards a food fight erupts, with Father James in the midst of it, much to his embarrassment when the other priests walk in on the scene.

There is also a scene that elaborates the problems the boys are going through, with Father James joining in a basketball match where Jason Boyd (played by Andrew Lawrence), the local bully is leading the team, in their jostle for the ball Father James is knocked down, whereupon Jason says they are all fighting to get into the same schools, and to get the same grades, and if anyone is in their way, they get pushed aside.

Isaiah Washington’s performance is mesmerising, and he goes deep into the character, blending effortlessly with the prayer rituals, and trying to help the boys at the school, and at the same time trying to defend his actions in front of his superiors and fellow priests.

There is a particularly poignant scene where Father James stays in the room of Parker after Parker asks him to; on account of being scared, on leaving the room the next morning, he is spotted by Father Peters, and brought in front of the Principal, where he is made aware that such actions could be deemed reckless if the press ever got hold of it, and its implied connotations could easily ruin a lifetime’s work.

This is one of the first movie of its kind that deals with the difficult and painful subjects of abuse from the point of view of the priests, it is handled respectfully all through.

I often hear from people who want to know if family history plays a role in the gender of their baby. For example, I might hear from a woman who will tell me something like: “I am one of five girls. There were not any boys in my family. So, does this mean that I will definitely have a girl also?” (The answer to this question is no, but I find it very interesting that very few people even factor in how the father-to-be and his own family might play a role.)

Or, I might have a mom-to-be ask me something like: “My husband’s family consists of nothing but boys. Does this mean that my odds aren’t good to get a girl?” Like the scenario above, this question doesn’t take the baby’s mother’s family into account. (And the answer is also no.)

Actually, both the mother and the father-to-be will be contributing to the sex or gender of their baby. And, frankly, these are the only two people who will really contribute to the outcome. Extended family members play little (if any) part in this scenario. I will discuss this more in the following article.

The Parents Of The Baby In Question Determine That Baby’s Sex Or Gender. The Baby’s Grandparents Don’t: I do understand that if you’re one of a family of one gender over the other, then it’s very tempting to assume that boy or girl babies just run in your family. Many people confess to me that they think that there are just some unknown genetic factors that go into play in the determination of baby gender. But, let’s place this assumption aside for just a second and try to look at it from a scientific point of view.

In a nutshell, here’s how a baby’s gender is determined. If the baby’s chromosomes are XY, then that baby will be a boy. If the baby’s chromosomes are XX, then that baby is going to be a girl. The mother-to-be is always going to give an X to this equation. So, who is left to contribute? Yes, the father is now left with contributing either an Y or an X. And studies have indicated that even men who have a certain genders running in their family have equal amounts of both X and Y sperm chromosomes.

So, when the couple in question have intercourse on or around the woman’s ovulation time period, the man’s sperm will work to fertilize her egg. These little sperm (and both X’s and Y’s are represented here) will race to the egg and only one is going to be the one who fertilizes it. So, whichever chromosome completes the mission first is actually what determines the baby’s gender.

But this is really only the end of a story that has more variables. See, we know that the man contributes similar amounts of X and Y. And we know the woman is limited to an X. So, it might seem that this is a game of chance, but that’s not entirely accurate either. As the sperm make their way to the egg, they will face many challenges. And these challenges can, believe it or not, affect the outcome and can help determine your baby’s gender or sex.

Also, the boy and girl producing sperm have different attributes and have different strengths and weaknesses. The girls can survive for a much longer period of time and can outlast the boys in even harsh conditions. Likewise, the boys live for only a short period of time and are vulnerable in an acidic environment. But, to balance this, the Y’s are the faster of the two.

And, this is where the woman comes into play. If she has intercourse early in her fertility cycle and couples this with an acidic reproductive tract, then she has a better chance of conceiving a girl baby. But, if she has sex late in her fertility cycle and has an alkaline reproductive tract, then she has a better chance of getting a son. Sometimes, when women swear to me that there family never produces one gender over another, I suspect that this may have to do with the PH levels of the women in the family. Some women even tell me that they have tested a few women in their family and have proven that the PH levels are very similar.

This is a debatable point, but you can easily check it yourself by testing your own PH and to see if this appears to be true for you. For example, if the women in your family always seem to produce girls, I would suspect that you would tend to be more acidic. If the women in your family always seem to get boy babies, I would suspect that you might be alkaline.

The good news is that if you don’t want the gender that runs in your family, you can make some changes in your diet and in your conception regimen to change this. PH is just one factor in gender selection, but it’s an important one, especially if you think that one gender seems to run in your family and you want to over come this.

Brief life history:

Ghalib is one of the most famous poets of the subcontinent. He had the most unique form of poetry in Urdu. The poet was famous for his heartrending, moving, poignant, sad, and tragic poetry in the history of Urdu., Mirza Asadullah Beg Khan was born in Agra on 27th December 1797. His ancestors belonged to a noble Turkish family.

Appearance:

He was not only a commendable poet but also had an impressive and strong personality. He was a tall and handsome man. This light skinned man had the appearance of Turks as his forefathers belonged to soldiers. Due to this reason as well he had a build of soldiers.

Interests:

The call of poetry from Ghalib was instinctive. He was a man to follow his own free will. If he had anything inherited he would have formed out to be a soldier like his ancestors. I rather call it intuitive ability that he perceived and responded with his intellect. He was a peaceful man and had nothing in common with his ancestors in interests. He liked to be on the literary side even as a child. He had interest in Arabic, Persian and Urdu languages. Yet we cannot find an evidence of his formal education.

Father of Urdu prose:

“Main koshish karta hoon ke koi aisi baat likhoon, jo padhay khush ho jaaye”

[I try to write in such a way that whoever reads should enjoy it…]

Mirza asad ullah khan Ghalib was known to be the ‘Father of Urdu Prose’. He was a great thinker and observer. His intellect was full of philosophical, ethical, literary, theoretic and theological in nature. This was all due to his observation and thinking that he attained a high level in expression of prose in Urdu. These verses show how observant and philosifical he wrote:

“Na tha kuchh toh Khuda tha, kuchh na hota toh Khuda hota

Duboya Mujhko hone ne, na hota Main toh kya hota?”

“When there was nothing, there was God

If nothing had been, God would have been

My very being has been my downfall

If I hadn’t been, what would it have mattered?”

Today’s prose that we read in urdu is quite influenced by the conversational letters used by this poet. This is what he says about it:

“Sau kos say ba-zabaan-e-qalam baatein kiya karo aur hijr mein visaal kay ma-zay liya karo”

[From hundreds of miles, talk with the tongue of the pen and enjoy the joy of meeting even in separation…]

He had an informal rather I would call it a comfortable way to communicate from long distances as well. Most of his letters were written to his admirers, friends and family member. History is evident for letters that he even wrote to himself.

Work of Ghalib:

One of his works includes divan e Ghalib. During his life time he wrote 235 Ghazals and about 1818 verses. We can find his work both on Urdu and Persian. His poetry was not only romantic but also included subject related to the correction f society and British conquest. His first divan was published in 1841.

Marital life of Ghalib:

Ghalib got married at the age of 13. His wife belonged to a noble family. He had seven children. He never seemed to be satisfied with his married life and considered it as an imprisonment.

Death of Ghalib:

After the long struggle the life of Ghalib came to an end in 1969. Thus the long journey poetry and literature came to an end. He was the one laying the first brick of modern poetry. We might not know much about him yet we use his verses every now and then in our daily lives.

There are times that I dream deep dreams. As if I were going back in time, these dreams transcend beyond the normal dream state into a subconscious arena where all my senses are activated. Tonight was one of those dreams where I returned to a special place in time, a time that I hold dear in my heart… popcorn conversations.

There I am sitting at the dining room table with my yellow bowl of homemade popcorn (the kind that came from shaking a pot over the stove), sitting across the room from my father. In these philosophical moments, I had the pleasure of having the undivided attention of one of the greatest men ever to live. You see some men talk about conversations they had with Andrew Carnegie, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the President of the United States, or a famous celebrity. For me, I had something greater because despite the conversations with such great men, very rarely could one say that he was loved as only a father could love a son.

The popcorn conversations were highly serious in nature. These conversations were not focused on world affairs or military strategy, but on more important topics like why my brother keeps hitting me, big words, how I’m doing in elementary school, and most importantly, who is God. These were the moments that I could ask anything without reservation and asking “why” multiple times was welcomed. These were the moments I learned more about life and being a man than ever before. These were the moments that I cherish and happily await the opportunity to use these timeless templates with my future children.

The significance of the popcorn conversations began with a simple gesture of a father who worked long hours sharing his food with his little boy at 2 am in the morning. It was a sacred time that a good man understood that it would be wrong to be gone all day working hard, and not take the opportunity to just talk with his son. Instead of telling his son to go back to bed, he welcomed the opportunity to listen. This demonstration of love made these moments personal and memorable. There were nights where there was no conversation, just father and son watching a movie together. But there were nights where tears were shed and comfort was given, or even moments when instruction was needed to redirect, but in love.

Tonight’s dream took me back to a popcorn conversation. But this time around I felt myself at the table not talking, but thanking God that I have a father who loves me. One who loves me enough to be there even to this day when I travel home to have popcorn conversations. I am honored to have such a great father (and mother) who lent an ear to his son and always has a word that means so much. A father who not only talks about the love of Christ, but lives and demonstrates it as well.

I write this to honor the fathers who have popcorn conversations with their sons and daughters. To the ones who make it a point to demonstrate love through listening and just being there. It cost $2 for a bag of popcorn and 1 hour of time, but the investment lasts a lifetime and the return value is priceless. Thanks Dad for our popcorn conversations. You defied all odds by not having a father around to have those conversations with you, but you made a point to make a difference in your sons’ lives. We love you for it and thank God each day for you… a real man!

Celtic artwork is intricate and rarely makes use of straight lines, instead its lines are flowing and intertwining which often emulates weaving.

The best recognized of all Celtic symbols is the knot which has today become and iconic way to define the beauty of Celtic knot art. This motif is used in the design and construction of not only jewelry and tattoo work, but can also be seen adorning metal and stone work, in Christian manuscripts and in architecture. Wherever this nomadic culture went they left their mark which was often the knot.

Endless Weaving

Celtic knot symbols are characterized by the endless weaving which has no discernable beginning and no ending. There are many designs and styles of Celtic knots dating back to ancient times and these knots were so revered that they were adopted by Christians to adorn their manuscripts and Gospels. These knots are delicate and show twisting and beautiful forms of symmetry. In fact they appear as far back as the 8th century in the Book of Kells. The interweaving of these knots are referred to as plaits.

Religious beliefs

Historians believe that the Celtic knots have religious significance that shows in their detail and form and which are said to reflect the intricacy of all things natural. They are also believed to have symbolic protection and were heralded with being able to ward off evil spirits. Even today they are used as charms and modern day Wicca’s believe that they have magical properties. There are however, no written reports that exist to tell us what they were originally created for.

Celtic knots are not only beautiful they are ornate and intricate so it is not surprising that this ancient form of art work has survived, becoming one of the worlds most identifiable art forms that still hold deep historical and religious symbolism.

Father daughter Celtic knots

One Celtic knot that stands out because it is so unusual is the Father Daughter knot. Legend tells the story of a mythical woman called Bridget and her father. Bridget sat close to her father as he was dying; as she mediated she began weaving a Celtic knot out of the rushes near the river. As she was weaving her father noticed that she was making knots and asked her to explain what she was doing. She told him about the significance of the knots and as a result he was moved to accept Christianity before he died.

Meaning of Knots

The meaning of these knots lies in the eyes of those who create them while their symbolic meaning point to the relationship we have with the universe and life. The endless strands tie us together as each generation passes and tells how we are interwoven with those around us as we continue into eternity. They remind us of how we are all interconnected to that in life and to those in the after life. Each knot cannot be separated from the whole just as the relationship we have with each other cannot be separated.

Celtic Trinity

The Celtic Trinity knot represents unending love whether it be between lovers, spouses, family or friends as well as the love that exists between father and daughter or parent and child.

Varieties

The Celtic knot has many varieties which are all symbolized by endless knots and stylized graphical representations. The interlacing patterns first appeared in about the 4th century AD. The spirals, step patterns and key patterns are dominant in the designs found before this time. There are eight elementary knots forming the basis of almost all interlacing patterns.

Triquetra

The original meaning was triangle and this type of knot is used to symbolize things and people that are threefold such Mother, Daughter and Grandmother – Past, Present and Future -or the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They are found on many ancient rune stones and on early Germanic coins. Triquetras are also depicted in the Book of Kells, on metal work, stone etchings and in Christian manuscripts.

They are widely recognized as being Celtic symbols and in Neo-paganism are used to depict cosmology and in theology while modern day Wicca’s use it to symbolize their connection to the existence of mind, body and soul.

A symbol expresses much more than words because it has a background. It is composed by a certain story, and it shows to the dreamer this entire story in only one image.

A symbol is a collection of meanings, like a sentence is a collection of words.

When for example you see your mother in a dream, this means that the dream is showing you first of all that you are being influenced by the wild side of your conscience, which is violent, immoral and sneaky. This is your other self, your primitive self, which you ignore. I named it anti-conscience because it works against the human side of our conscience, trying to destroy it through craziness. The anti-conscience provokes all existent mental illnesses to the human side of the human conscience.

It is an independent conscience that works like a wild animal, trying to kill our human side. The anti-conscience is very dangerous and powerful. This is why it predominates in the human brain, and behavior.

We see dreams exactly because the wise unconscious mind, another independent brain which is inside our own brain and sees everything, teaches us the truth about our psychical formation, showing us everything that happens with the anti-conscience, and how much it influences us.

This means that when you start studying the meaning of dreams you discover what exists inside your own brain and how to control your behavior, develop your intelligence and much more, by following the guidance of the unconscious mind, reflected in the dream symbols.

Your mother in dreams is your worst enemy. She represents the roots of absurdity and evil. You have to be very careful when she appears in your dreams and try to find out in which points the anti-conscience is influencing you.

You are making serious mistakes influenced by this dangerous part of your brain. Be careful and keep writing down your dreams, translate them according to the scientific method and follow the guidance of the unconscious mind, so that you may stop doing what is destroying your human side and giving more power to the anti-conscience, which is trying to control completely your behavior.

It is a beast that thinks rationally but has no human feelings. The anti-conscience is totally selfish and cruel.

Don’t let your worst side win, but be you, the human being, the hero who will control your behavior, after eliminating this monster from your brain. You have to transform this beast into a human being. You cannot kill it, because it is a part of your brain, even though it works independently of the control of the human side of your conscience, which you can see.

Your father in dreams represents your idiot and one-sided human conscience, which is selfish and ignorant. If you see your father in a dream, this means that you are a slave of your psychological type. In other words: you are simply repeating the mistakes of your psychological type by repeating the wrong reactions that predetermine your behavior.

Be very careful when you see your parents in dreams! Their symbolic meaning is very bad.

Of course, their symbolic meaning is totally different from their literary meaning. In our daily lives our parents are good for us and we love them – at least this is the most frequent image they have.

However, the language of the unconscious mind is a language that you must learn, the same way you learn any foreign language made with words.

You’ll discover that the unconscious mind defines, in a totally different way, the things that your human conscience defines, following other structures.
