There are all kinds of doors in the mythical worlds, some never work on the conventions of the logic of science, and such physical laws work as if magic was real. Who built these doors? Engineers of the mind design things made in mind with intangible materials and physical ones. The doors of various forms are to keep enemies out of reach or guard against weather extremes like storms. Doors are a symbol of security, life, honor, mythical world. In a fictional world that only exists in mind, that world has doors that open everywhere, to another part of the world, another planet, other dimensions, to about the person wishes to open the door to; it’s their mind that tells the door where they will travel to. Doors are everywhere in the world. They could be in places they never expected. Doors exist deep in the forest, in the sky, as part of a landscape; they can suddenly appear, some of the doors are high up in the trees, and others are part of a body of water. Doors exist everywhere, and very few people are allowed to go through the doors, and like many doors, there are keys. The keys are physical; one has a glowing light at the end. Only when the light is in a particular state can the door be opened. One type is a chain of complicated water into a basin; the water reacts in a certain way and opens the door. These are only a few of the descriptions of keys. Doors are essential because people live everywhere in the mythical world. Not all homes are in structural communities; people live where they wish to be.

Near a forest, there are walls not very significant; the round doors that are part of the wall seem to have decorative elements, not knowing what they represent. Some of the doors have a slight bow shaped with relief, they curve with the flow of plant forms, and the other entries are decorated with forms of color as if crafted of lacquer and covered with tinted glass. Another type of door is made out of solid light, a common design element, and material seen in the mythical world. The wall is thin, and there is a forest in the back with red soil. Could they be doors to get through the wall to the other side? That is not true; the doors lead somewhere else to people’s homes; there is a difference, the rounded doors are small, and they are opened with a combination. Once it’s open, the homeowner has to crawl through a tunnel. Was this a way of going home? It wasn’t the only way to get into a home but the most secure. The homes entered through these places contain an entire world where the homeowner can sleep outside in the moonlight without fearing weather changes, animals, or enemies. It was a unique place for the owner.

A door made of sunlight is a secure, tall thin rectangular shape that opens only through the command of the owner or creator of the door. The entry appears in the middle of a scene; when it opens, what is seen inside are great hanging lamps of power with bright light; it’s an interior of some sort. Some of these types of doors continue a presence for years; others disappear to reappear at certain times, and the tall permanent doors of light continue to glow day and night. During the night, the light from the gates is so beautiful, and gradually, they show designs; each night, they are different and never occur again in the same format. Each night is a type never to be seen again. People used image recorders similar to cameras to record each design.

Now some doors appear at the entrance of a building or home; it only seems to the owner. Otherwise, it’s just a solid wall of material of wood, stone, metals, or light. They have the door. There is a need for a chant in mind, never with a voice and words. Once they appear, what do these doors look like? They can be made of ceramic, wood, metal, stone, plastic, light, or any combination of materials; there is no limit.
