Helping Out At Meditation Retreat.

 Dreamed that I was a helper at a meditation center. There were a few yellow brahmacharis there leading the programs. One of my jobs was to lay out the zabutons (cushions) and to understand how many were needed. I wrote the details on a blackboard. Then I would go and meditate with everyone. I was experiencing some nice meditations, very quiet and peaceful mind. And I was looking forward to doing more meditations. At one time one of the brahmacharis told me to put out 16 zabutons, but we actually needed 21. We were happy that more people were coming to meditate. One of the young Indian brahmacharis was kind of my boss. Then he asked me, "Hey Advait, do you need a cover for your drum?" I said, "No, no, no cover for me, I like to keep it simple." I was joking around and I tapped his head and said, "We can use your head for a drum." He seemed a little annoyed at that and I felt a little guilty. It was a nice open space with lots of light and I was in a good mood.
