H'Esh etek vi-esh-torong sa'le-esh-tor quel sochya. Ha kashek svi'ma kae quel sochya. Ma ak'shem, ma sikrus quel sochya. Ma katra, ma ves quel sochya.
The breath we draw in and release is peace. The thoughts in our minds are peace. Our body, our limbs are peace. Our spirit, our essence is peace.

I have found that meditation has been a great help in handling the visions and dreams that have become common lately. It is unnatural for Vulcans to dream after meditating; that has not stopped whatever is causing these particular visitations, but it has made them bearable. It is my theory that such mental focus would aid others who find themselves unsettled by this. If I may be helpful in some way in this regard, I can be found on level six, room eight.

My apologies for our lack of interaction. [A short pause] If you are having difficulties, I will do what I can to help.

I suppose it's only similar in the sense that I clear my mind of these kind of thoughts by focusing on God. How much easier did it make it, though? I'm...sort of desperately trying to get this to work, and if it's not going to make a huge difference... I'd at least like to know. ~~I have to keep faith~~

I have increased to amount of time I spend in meditation, but that is a small price to pay in order to continue my life relatively uninterrupted by that which has been appearing. If it is something you would be interested in, I will instruct you in Vulcan disciplines; you may find them of some use when applied to prayer, if nothing else.

...Normally, I'd turn you down on the grounds I'm pretty well disciplined when it comes to prayer anyway but... right now, it sounds better than any of my other options, so I'll give it a go. Thank you for the offer.

It was not meant as an insult. I hope you find some use in it.

I didn't take it as one, honestly. Given the circumstances, it was a very generous offer.

It is everyone's best interests to remain calm. It is my routine to meditate at night, but I am finding that my schedule is increasing. Are you free at 1200 hours, tomorrow?

It most definitely is. I should be, bar massive uncontrollable incidents, yes.

Hopefully, none will arise.

With luck, yes. I'll see you then.
