Here he paints Tuwan, situated in the heart of traditional Spinifex Country and a site that holds the Yjulpu Tjuta Tjukurpa (Many Birds Creation Line). It is here at Tuwan where a group of Wati Nyii-Nyii (Zebra Finch Men) depart for the southern coast to save the world from the rising seas. They firstly have to deal with Wati Kurparu at Tuwan as he rips a ngalta (desert Kurrajong) from the ground and drinks the sacred water that is held in its root system. The Wati Nyii-Nyii chase him south to the site of Malakanu where he meets his fateful end. The Wati Nyii-Nyii then continue south to Eucla where they place their kuata in the ground to stop the rising sea water. This becomes the current day Nullarbor Cliffs.

Am I correct in my assumption that you never had any difficulties accessing that world?
It is not something you had to train or activate? Well maybe I should say you never lost it.
I think for many, the first adult experiences with fairies are fairly imprinting. especially when you get pushed out of childhood and you convinced yourself it was all your childish imagination.

So something that may be useful to the Shamen.
In the fairy lore, when folks visit fairyland there is the alterered consciousness. This is often so with the "alien encounter" as well. Many encounters have the altered consciousness quality.
This is common.
The psychdelic 'trips' of the mushroom and other plants are said to take us to a very similar realm of consciousness. People see things that other do not see, feel what others do not feel and gain insights into what is. The altered consciousness quality.
The poppy and the hemp create a dreamlike state. The altered consciousness state
We also have the "schizophrenia" and other so-called "mental illnesses" where the "hallucinations" manifest in the waking consciousness. The altered consciousness state.
And we have the dream. Another altered consciousness state . In a way we can say the organic body is conscious twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, fifty two weeks a year. Throughout our entire life our body is conscious. Our body can be said to be always awake at it's own 'level' od consciousness. The breathing does not stop when we go to sleep, nor does the heart stop beating, nor do our other organs stop doing what they do.
It is the waking consciousness that stops, everything else keeps working, everything else retains it's consciousness.
Dreams are said to arise between deep sleep and waking consciousness, That is where the blue spheres exist and are to be found in consciousness.
The blue spheres arise as an overlay upon the sympathetic nervous systems along the spine.
This is a simple view of they look like when I see them.
The base of the dream extends through the nervous system's consciousness and maybe considered an extension of consciousness.
So what creates the dream?
* Dreams happen when we fall asleep.
* The poppy.
* The mushroom.
What else can be considered the dream?
* States of stress.
* Schizophrenia.
* Mystical experiences.
To understand, one needs to consider the boundaries between the dream state and the ordinary conscious state. When the boundaries come down we dream when awake. The difficulty for us is to know the difference and people tend to panic when the boundaries blur.
Now, I have mentioned that dreams can be:
* Shared.
* Interactive.
* Persistant.
The problems for us is when dreams loose the boundaries and become persistant in our waking consciousness. The 'trip' for example, and the poppy. So too with the scizophrenia.
The religious and mystical states are generally socially acceptable and generally are adapted to.
The kundalini can cause havock.
There is another class of persistant shared interactive dreams. The '-ism'.
* The corporative mind. Corporatism.
* The religeous mind. Catholicism.
* The newage mind.
* The magician's lodge.
* and so on.
They can be considered constructed persistant shared interactive dreams.
Here we have a constructed primary dream that may be called the egregore. The primary dream is the sum of all the dreamer's dreams. It is also constructed according to a the relevant dogma.
One might ask; What happens to the primary dream when the last dreamer stops dreaming?
What's more is the body already knows this . . .
