I am in my yoga class. I am not paying much attention to the postures rather I am reading a book. During a break in the class, the teacher says, I want you to grab the book, hit it on the edge of the table, and say PtahP I do this, and then I see a table at the far end of the room, on which stands a wooden box that looks like a tabernacle, the house of the deity. Someone puts a dove inside and closes the door.
