The Illusion of Dreams

posted by Nothingislost @ Sunday, 8 November 2020

I love sleep, I love dozing, I love naps. I'm guided that sleep is all I'm good for. When we go into dreams we choose to be absorbed in illusion. There is no intrinsic meaning to the content of dreams, they are the self completely captivated. This is the self in dreams.

Birds - Pexels Now, there are things that happen with dreams that are seemingly just incredible. I've dreamt of a moment vividly only for that exact moment to happen some years later. There is no truth to it, there is no meaning to it. You're God so being able to see a moment before it happens is trivial. That you were choosing to dream of the moment as illusion makes all the difference - there is no truth to the content of the dream.

I've shared dream content and, once again, there is no meaning to sharing the content. You may be sharing content with other aspects of God many times without being immediately aware of it. You have to remember that though the self is God choosing to think in illusion it is still God, which Leaf - Unsplash means the self is connected with everything else through being an aspect of God. The words of the self are more immediately apparent in this connectedness but there is no meaning in the thoughts of the self, and this includes dreams.

Just those seemingly incredible aspects of dreams are simply because you're God, at which point they appear trifling; you shared a dream with someone... but, then, you're also God.

And as God you can choose to have visions. These are significantly different from dreams but sleep is one time that they can happen. The content of visions is not illusion, they are coming from you in love. You are choosing to have a vision - though in amnesia you have forgotten making the choice - and the vision will help you understand an aspect of love. You can tell the difference between a dream and a vision because... you're God and you're doing all of it.

Like the rest of life, you must necessarily be doing something to understand an aspect of love. With visions you could choose to be walking down the road and then have a vision... but given how much you have chosen to forget, it may seem a bit jarring to choose to bring on a vision out of nowhere like that. So visions in truth may occur in sleep when you're absorbed in a constantly shifting dreamscape anyway.
