He was a philosophy student, when his own belief system was tested.
‘Tested’ may not be the correct word for it, but for him, something happened that challenged his way of looking at life. As a philosophy student, he had no time for the concept of past lives. Of course, this was only his personal belief, and would play no part in his studies. The fact that ancient philosophers like Socrates, Plato and Pythagoras all expressed a belief in reincarnation, carried no weight for him. His father had always maintained a strong case for majoring in philosophy. That was enough for him. However, the strange happening he experienced was brought about by three quite separate things, a bad head cold, an old remedy, and a metronome in a shop window.
His head cold had caused him to take a break from his studies for several days. He was recovering slowly when he had a call from his grandmother, one of his favourite relatives, to pay a quick visit, provided he wear a face mask. A short bus ride was all it took to end up in her kitchen, with mask on, discussing his health. She explained how a particular ancient remedy had always worked for her. That was good enough for him. She had prepared it before his arrival, saying that it was a compound of several herbs, the juice from berries and two kinds of mushrooms. These she had mashed into a purée on her blender. He drank this before he left.
The music shop that he would often visit was only two doors away from his stop. On this occasion, he was looking at the window display, while keeping an eye out for his bus. The latest feature was a large metronome in a wooden case, ticking away as a central feature. He was mentally trying to calculate how many beats-per-minute it had been set at, when the bus came.
At home, in his bedroom, he lay on the bed exhausted. It had been a tiring exercise making the trip out, for someone getting over a cold. It was then that he heard the occasional ticking. He sat up and found himself staring at a metronome, ticking very slowly on his small study desk. As he watched, the room seemed to fade away, being replaced by the sense that he was flying a light aircraft! It was so real! The vibration and drone in the cockpit, the panel of instruments in front of him, the surrounding clouds… Then, after two more clicks from the instrument, the environment snapped into something else.
He was in a field, using a hoe to mound up soil around rows of green plants of some kind. He barely had time to take in his surroundings or to gauge how hot the weather was, before it all changed again.
Now, leaning over someone in a bed, he was instantly aware of the smell of disinfectant and the sounds of noises commonly heard in a hospital… It occurred to him that he had no idea how he was being presented in any of these scenarios; how he was dressed, his age or even what sex he was. He only knew he was there for those few brief moments. He was distracted by these thoughts when the scene changed again.
He was standing on a platform, high up on the outside of a tall building, fitting a window frame. He was aware of the wind moving the boards beneath his feet and the sound of traffic coming from below… but, there was another noise, quite different. It was faster than the tick of the metronome and more immediate somehow. He heard his mother’s voice, asking if he was all right. In that moment, he looked back at the empty desk and fell back onto his pillow.
He called out, “I’m OK.”
She opened the door, saying, “I didn’t want to disturb you, if you were asleep.” She approached the bed. Looking down at him, she said, “Are you sure you’re OK?”
He nodded. “Yes, just had a weird dream, that’s all.
She pulled a face. “I’m not surprised. A head cold can do that. Visiting your grandma may have been a bit much for you. What you need is rest.”
He did his best to smile. “Thanks mum.”
As she left, closing the door gently behind her, he wondered whether it really was just a dream.
