Dreams

Dr. A.J.A. Peter, in so many words, once suggested that we ought to remember our dreams. The likelihood was that once we woke up during the night or in the morning, we would not remember much of the dreams we had during our sleeptime…at our Alpha, Theta or even at our Delta Level of our mind. He even suggested to do what one would not dream of doing, and that was, to get a pen and a dream notebook ready, placing them within arm-length… easy reach … from our bed. As and when we were blessed with a dream or two sometimes, we should write them down so that we would not forget them. We could then make use of dreams, analysing them to guide us through life everyday...during the Beta Level of our mind. He mentioned, during his Mind Control lectures in 1978, that dream control is a formula-type technique in three steps that one can use to practise remembering dreams. He conducted a Mind Control Course in 1978. I was previledged to get sponsored to attend the Course.

Dreams were very biblical … there was no RC religious barring from believing in dreams. The bible, the Old Testament in special reference, was loaded with narratives of dreams, dreams dreamt by influential individuals implaced by God as His instruments during the course of the passage of time and space in history. Those dreams which carried God’s warnings rather than mere messages to mankind, depicting God’s thoughts which He said differred from men’s, were allowed by God to be known to men through God’s wisdom-gifted interpreters especially enlightened by God to do His will. Do we still remember Joseph, the youngest of the brothers, who interpreted the Pharoe’s dreams? God rewarded him for his God-given wisdom making the Pharoes as the rewarding instruments. Prophet Daniel in another time, space and place in history interpreted dreams. Dreams were God’s strange ways to communicate his thoughts to men. He, in all eternity, says that His ways are not men’s ways.

One’s certain segments of experience, it is said, enter one’s dream life. It is said, too, that these segments have some sort of “pluses” attached to them so that they become used by the brain for materials of dreams. All these were said by that referred to Dr. in his Mind Control Course. He further said that dreams reflect one’s own experience, attitude, and concern, and perhaps the best interpreter of one’s dreams is the dreamer himself or herself.

But, without referring to known academic concerns, uncertified philosophical expoundments and world-knowledge or other theories, what do our typical immediate nieghbours say when we dream of departed loved ones? I narrated a dream of a departed loved one, only a short vedioclip-length like dream, and in unision, as if hand-conducted, they simultaneously entoned, “offer her a Holy Mass”. That expoundment, it sounded, came straight from the hearts. I often dream of this old lady I was so familiar with, but now long gone. I have never come around with the Holy Mass offer yet. Is a dream also used as a medium of communication by the spirit of the departed to the spirit of the still-living mortals? Was the disappointment of non-compliance to beliefs of offering a Holy Mass so great that the spirit tried to reach other members of the family? And, was it too much a feeling of a lose to part with RM5.00 or so per Holy Mass offer? What could be the hindering factor to a simple single compliance to the simultaneous entonement heard, “offer her a Holy Mass” ?

Many other dreams were the like of snapshots or short vedioclips but rarely the like of a full length vedio plays. They were only of objects, half-bodied individuals seemed seen in a social setting without scienic backgrounds. If the dreamt individuals were seen or witnessed to be in speech act, then they could not be audible heard but yet the dreamer sometimes understood clearly as to what they had actually said, ..for it was theorized that communication was from spirit-to-spirit. Dreams could be short actions, like throwing, driving a car or flying a plane, sometimes of conditions, like deaths, but sometimes, only sometimes and very rarely, a short play … a storylike. Some were socially good while others shameful. Others were frigthening while some the dreamer would not want the dream to end. Some were even blessed with a continuation of a beautiful dream which had been interupted with a sudden wake. Some dream only in black and white while others dream in colours. But, like life itself which James 4:17 likened to a “puff of smoke”, dreams conveniently escaped memories before they could even be recalled. A real dream, not the day-dreaming one, could not be willed to take place in whatever basic level of the mind the sleep was, … be it only at the Alpha level or at the deeper Theta level or the ultimate unconscious Delta level. The vast, unfamiliar and unchartered land, the dreamland, seemed the spirits’ domains, ... a heavenly park they go for a spirit-walk, … the good spirits and maybe the not so good ones too.

But, some of the early mothers, those rural mothers in the 1950s and around those years, were commonly heard warning their children not to eat too much at dinner time for fear of getting bad dreams. The warnings, perhaps, could only be the caring mothers’ loving discouragements to their children not to unhealthly overeat.

Believe me you…it happened to this one country icon sometime long ago… His short vedioclip dream was the like of being ‘involved in the joy of drinking some sweet first-class rice wine’, lihing. What followed the next day or so was that this bloke had an acute case of flue, fever and running nose. It struck him as strange to note later that the colour of the mucuse of his running nose was similar to the colour of the rice wine which he had dreamt-drank.

On the night of 290309 there was this bloke who dreamt of two elderly departed individuals who were engaged in a short dialogue … one informing and the other listening. The one listening had an unlighted white cigarette in between his lips. When he parted his lips in awe as if not able to believe what he had just heard, the cigarette did not drop down! Analysing such a scene seen in a dream, what could it be remotely connected to in the Beta Level living situation?

There was this man who dreamt that he was in church but that he had no pants on … in public and as if in real life situation, he was very embarrassed.

But, watch out for dreams of seeing other people naked … for Tai’ 4D says that it could be a fantastically great 4D luck coming around at your particular time and age! Just simply buy any number-set … loads of it if one was mindful with katan… and be prepared to get a real positive surprise of a life time.

Be wary of dreams! Beware of these thoughts, they are human’s narratives. Ignore the immediate afore-said tips .. do not be deceived!
