I just awoke from a dream that took me straight to the revelations of the Conversations with God series and made me wonder; is it true?
Dreams simply must be classified as one of the most intriguing and downright strange mysteries of the human experience. We’ve all chuckled to ourselves in amazement about the bizarre mish-mash of people, situations and locations that often seem to bounce around our head as we sleep. I still haven’t figured out why Wild Bill Hickok and Michelle Obama once joined me on a dream-journey as we all rode tigers, bareback and peacefully, through the jungle of Costa Rica. Do they even have tigers in Costa Rica?
The message in Conversations with God presents us with the most-compelling explanation I’ve ever encountered of the dream process. Simply put, sleep is a demand of the soul as it seeks a respite from the constraints of the human body and must experience its’ true self; an entity that is able to visit other realities and dimensions amid the time-space continuum. (Before you scoff too much at the idea of the existence of “other dimensions”, take a few minutes and examine the thoughts of well-respected scientists concerning quantum physics and the dozen dimensions possibly correlated with string theory).
CWG suggests that, courtesy of physics, every moment in time that has, or will, take place exists simultaneously in the wonder of the Universe and space. Beyond that, a non-stop stream of alternative reality coincides with your life. In other words, in another dimension, you and Michelle Obama may be best buds. In yet another spot, or another life, perhaps you knew Wild Bill Hickok. As the soul makes its’ way throughout this wide range of realities, it brings back little snippets of these visits which converge in your mind and make for a collage of crazy experiences that pop up in dreams.
There is nothing that makes more sense than when the edges of spirituality and science overlap, explaining each other. For if quantum physics is correct, and multiple dimensions and realities exist, why is it difficult to contemplate the ability of our life-presence and subconscious, and our “soul,” to be aware of these alternative realities with parts of them slipping into our most peaceful, relaxed and open-minded time…sleep?
I’d love to hear your thoughts on this. Post your comments below or forward this post to your friends for their comments. And, if you’re unfamiliar with the sections of Conversations with God that covers this topic, read it. It’s fascinating, mind-blowing stuff.
Peace,
