KANAYAMA : Another futile metaphysical dialog IMAGE: Some times spheres floating between dimensions and interacting with one another. Bhäraté: Does everyone have a treasure within them? Chariya: (coyly) Yes and no. Bhäraté: What kind of answer is that? Chariya: (with a strangely detached voice) There are treasures all around us, but we "have" nothing.
