Vision: The Suitcases

 

Vision: The Suitcases

24^th February 2014

This vision was seen late December 2013.

I saw a large inter-city railway terminus. All the platforms looked three times longer than normal railway platforms; positioned in various places on the platform were four porters, waiting expectantly for the due train.

In a flash several trains arrived and vanished. There were no passengers in the trains, nor any waiting on any of the other railway platforms.

In the twinkling of an eye, these trains appeared, dumped a massive number of suitcases onto the platform and vanished.

All the suitcases strewn along the platform looked identical. They were large vintage tan leather suitcases with wooden trims. Strangely, not a single one had a handle or strap or any place where one could hold, or grip it, to carry it.

Trains arrived and vanished at great speed. Soon the platform was strewn with stacks of these vintage tan leather suitcases. The porters stood perplexed. They did not have enough luggage carts or trolleys to carry these many suitcases, and in the absence of handles or straps, or wheels, they did they know how they could lift such heavy bags and load them onto the few baggage carts that they did have. They could see that lifting even one such bag could break their backs.

The porters were puzzled. Carrying these many handle-less bags looked beyond their job description, so though they continued to stare at the suitcases, they stepped back and did not touch any of them.

I understood that each of these four porters was equipped to handle grave matters.

So why had these porters been waiting for these trains and the luggage, if they were not to touch any of these?
