[Torres tries to bring Chakotay back with his people's medicine wheel]
Lieutenant B'Elanna Torres : The wheel represents both the universe outside and the universe inside our minds as well. They believe each is a reflection of the other. When a person is sleeping or, or on a vision quest, it's said that his soul is walking the wheel. But if he's in a coma or near death, it means that he's gotten lost. These stones are signposts... to help point the way back.
[she places one stone on the wheel; the Doctor sighs]
Lieutenant B'Elanna Torres : Not exactly standard medical procedure, I know, but...
The Doctor : You've placed the coyote stone at the crossroads of the fifth and sixth realms, which would divert Commander Chakotay's soul, that is his consciousness, into the mountains of the antelope women - according to his tradition an extremely attractive locale. He might not want to leave.
