Meditation and Delphi

Is there someone there?
Meditation rescues us from both the bad dreams but also the delicious feeling of slipping into more sleep.  Today, instead of climbing away from chaotic dream, I was just slipping back into the bliss of sleep when the alarm went off.  Slow obedience to it but obedience nonetheless and then out onto the quiet early morning balcony .  It is just 6.00 am and nothing has quite woken, no people, no cicadas, no birds, no motor bikes.  This is better bliss than the possible sleep scenario.  I am alert when the being rests between the night and the day, aware of the waking up world but totally detached.  This is worth breaking away from sleep for. Today we go to the Temple site at Delphi today and try the feel of the site so revered in antiquity for its potency.  Will the Gods still be there?
