My dream didn't seem to have any apparent connection with ancient
Persia.
The hanging basket, like the high, inaccesible ledges, seemed to me as
if
they might've been just another way that the meditators might've had
of 
isolating themselves from any rodents in the cave. The wrappings
seemed as 
if they might've been protection against insects. As for what the
dream 
might've meant symbolically, I don't know.
