The existence of officials who can see into your dreams and judge them imposes a broader cultural sense of transparency. The whole character of the Gujaareh people is shaped by these networks of public obligation, and by the supreme importance of balance and peace in Gujaareh worship and life. Upon request, they also grant peace to aged and ailing faithful. Gatherers, the most elite branch of Hananja's servants, execute miscreants for the greater good, and in this capacity they are answerable to no higher authority than one another. Highly developed systems of justice, public health, defense, education, and legalized prostitution are administrated by her priests, who use dream magic collected from regular public tithes to discharge these offices. Civic life revolves around and is facilitated by her worship. ![]() In Gujaareh, Hananja is the sole goddess. ![]() Kisua resents Gujaareh's greater wealth and, more importantly, Gujaareh's very different way of honoring Hananjah, their mutually recognized goddess of dreams.

The “centred being” reaches out toward the outer circles called “past” and “future.” “So the ‘now’ is a giving and a receiving between the inner and outer reaches, but the enormous difficulty is to achieve refinement in reciprocity, because the wheel, the spiral, is balanced so exquisitely.” “It was a new discovery to find that these stories were, after all, about our own lives, were not distant,” says Roimata, “that there was no past or future, that all time is a now-time centred in the being.” ![]() |
