Adishi Gocha Teaching Dream Work
Adishi
Gocha was fidgety and taciturn, Claudia’s presence disturbed her. She demurred that
she had in mind to initiate Alexandra into dream work, but she could not do that in presence of
the foreign doctor.
Alexandra did not translate this complaint. She asked Claudia to sit quietly on the side
and then tried to persuade Gocha to at least show them both how to quiet their minds and
empower their hands, as she had promised. Claudia, although she spoke no Georgian, was a
good person who needed Gocha’s power as much as she did to heal people in Germany.
Claudia sat in a corner on the floor with crossed legs and closed eyes, being very quiet.
Gocha squinted at Claudia and a cunning smile came to her wrinkled face. "She is trying
to vanish. I can still see her, but her mind has almost stopped sending out messages. Maybe
you are right that she could learn something."
"What is her name?" asked Gocha.
"Dia."
Suddenly Gocha shouted, "Dia come back! I want to teach you how to fly."
Alexandra raised her eyebrows. Flying? Claudia did not blink an eye, and that broke
Gocha’s last reserve.
"Go tell her that I think she is very good at vanishing."
Alexandra, in whose mind the word flying ran circles, very slowly went over to her friend.
