I have been here before in a dream

I knew I had to come in Seoul because my Soul needed that and I knew was important and I couldn’t postpone it anymore, I bought a ticket few months ago and wanted to be here being part of the local community and searched for some volunteer work in exchange for accomodation, initially got a two weeks for an association that helps locals that want to practice English but for the first month I wanted to know more about Buddhism and got in touch with local Temples but none of them would host foreigners till I found a Buddhist temple called Justbe temple in Hongdae and offered some help with daily chores in exchange of accomodation and time to spent meditate, I never knew was possible till last year when in Bangkok I went with my Thai brother to a vegan market and walking inside a local temple we come across a man that told us he stayed for free while helping the monks, that’s when I begun to think about this opportunity.

As soon I arrived in Seoul and stepped inside the building I felt at ease and meeting people this strong feeling that I met them before, after few days while talking to a Nun I had a strong dejavu and felt so sure that I already been here but was gone after few minutes but I knew that something was happening and I was on the right path ……

Two nights ago it happened …… I couldn’t sleep and turning around in the bed and in need to go to the bathroom I removed a curtain that give some privacy to the space where I’m sleeping that is a sort of capsule like those capsule hotels in Japan and I was about to get out when again a strong dejavu but this time was different …. This time I knew that all of that, that moment, the tea room …. I dreamed it months ago, it wasn’t just a dejavu but an actual memory of a dream, I was exactly in the same place doing the same thing I dreamed, it was powerful, it was a bless.

I come in search of my Soul, I come to close the circle or maybe to reopen it but I don’t care because I’m here for a reason and I’m happy, I was supposed to be here.
