I had a very bizzaro dream a couple of days back. In the dream I was in a place there were just temples everywhere and I was taking pictures of Gods inside of them. Polaroid pics. As I was taking those pictures I came across 3 kinds of people.
1. Those people who hated me taking pictures as they believed being a muslim I shouldn’t be taking pictures of Hindu gods.
2. Those people who believed that the pictures were Intellectual property of the temples and hence I should turn them in to them.
3. Those who sympathized with me but asked me to abandon the pictures taking project all together.
I remember that I refused to give pictures in and had a long fight with the temple people. And then I woke up. Couldn’t get the dream out of my head for the next 15 mins – felt almost real.
