What's the deal with Dreams?

Question

Do our dreams try to tell us something, im not sure but they are certainly very fascinating and i am really intrigued. I have had some crazy dreams that really shake me up, I keep a log book nowadays on me so as soon as i wake up i write down everything about that dream that I can remember. My dreams include things that happen in my life, but also include things that happen in my other dreams, effectively dreams remembering dreams, my dreams have fabricated words and people that dont even exist yet i swear i have seen or heard of them b4, scientists say we should look for the literal meaning of dreams such as if u dream of walking into work naked it means u r hiding something and u feel better telling ppl and that is what u really want to do. I have had some crazy dreams and i beleieve they try and tell u something, not predictions or anything but just helpong you out, What do u guys think?

Finally, I have been searching for this question for a while now.  I wrote you an answer Thurs. night and it wouldn't upload, traveled to another country Friday, came back Saturday.  Today is Sunday and I still want to get this to you.  Can you imagine somebody on the other side of the world has been thinking of you for 3 days and you don't even realize it.  Well here it goes.....

Welcome welcome to the world of dreams and the world of the spirit. Where have you been, busying yourself with those things in front of you?  It is a pleasure to introduce you to this world.  My delight in having met a person who is blessed, as it is a blessing for a person to seek knowledge.  You're lucky and perhaps I to meander a while into this place.  I'll give you as crash a course as I can into your quest.  I admire one who seeks as do you. To ask a question is the first step toward knowledge. Allow me to adorn you.

Now it all begins with sleep, sleep being as akin to death as we get.  Do you agree?  In fact, the spirit, the soul does leave the body in sleep and we go into spiritual mode.  You do believe in the spirit?  Don't You?  It comes upon us in the wombs of our mothers upon the passing of 120 days.  Our spirit is housed in our bodies until our written date of death when our spirit returns to whence it came. It's maker.  You do believe in a maker, a creator, don't you?  Now if you found a watch out on the beach, would you not look to see what kind it was, what make? The assumption that belies looking for the kind or make means it has a maker. (I won't go into the philosophical wanderings now, just for brevity's sake)

Likewise, here we are, you and I and lo and behold, the world of the spirits. Welcome again.

In sleep, I said, the soul can leave the body, that's what explains alot of the meetings the living have with the dead in dreams.  Many have dreams in which the dead come. Since our souls leave the body , we are able to greet the people who live now only in spirit.  There is a world of the dead and the world of the living.  The world we are in is a world of deceit, lies and trickery whereas the world of the dead is the world of truth.  That's why anything the dead speak in dreams should be heeded as they speak the truth. Beware the living, I say.

Let me tell you a story about a young man who slept in a cemetary and had a dream. He saw the graves open and all the dwellers withn come out and begin to pluck invisible things from the air and ground.  In one grave, there was a man reclined on a silk brocade couch, leisurely watching the others.  The young man approached the dweller on the couch and asked him what the people were doing . He replied that they were collecting the prayers, blessings and good deeds the living performed on their behalf.  He asked the grave dweller why he wasn't getting his share with them, didn't he have someone to pray and ask forgiveness, mercy and remember him among the living. The grave dweller replied he had, his son in the market place who read religious verses for him daily.  The man asked the name of the grave dweller and woke up.  Of course, bewildered by the dream, he went to the marketplace looking for the son of the grave dweller. He found him and asked about his father and the son told him that he was deceasd and that he prayed daily for his father.  The words in his dream were true. So....

Back to the world of the spirit.  You did agree that a spirit exists correct?  We are body and spirit. The two of which will blame each other for being the source of all actions, thoughts and words.  I have another story.  I need to give you some background here, a good foundation,  Bear with me.

A blind man came upon a lame man who had spotted a palm grove with ripe dates.  Being hungry the lame man asked the blind man to help him reach the dates. The blind man asked how it could be done as the lame couldn't walk or stand to reach them and the blind man couldn't  see them.  They finally decided that the blind man carry the lame man and direct the blind man toward the tree to reach the dates.  This parable being the relationship between body and spirit.  Which do you think is which? Guess before I tell you....

Anyhow, the owner of the palm grove came upo the men eating his dates and accused the men of stealing.  The lame blamed the blind man as he said how could he walk toward the grove and the blind accused the lame as how could he see where they were.  Ultimately who was to blame?

The body is the vehicle as you well know and the spirit is what directs it..  Thus the lame is the spirit, meaning it has no physical bodilly mobility, however, it is able to guide and direct the body.  A very powerful thing the spirit, as really that's what guides and directs us and ultimately who is to blame and taken into account.  

So there we are, the spirit again, busy at its work.  Many eerie spiritual  happenings occur during sleep, not only dreams of the dead but of the living and yesterday and today and tomorrow.  Dreams are only three:  the prophetic from God, foretelling or guiding, those from the self, a playing out of everyday events, feelings, sights, etc.., and those from the devil, the nightmares and paralysis, when those entities from the spirital world come to play with us.  Many see, hear and feel realities unlike anything that ever happens in a state of awareness.  Some leave their bodies and wander around, some float, some hear voices, whispers, some sense the presence of something malignant and evil nearby, something squatting in the corner of the room.  Some see costumed personages walking around their bed or houvering over them.  Some feel their bodies probed with hands, their bodies pulled, pressed upon.  Great anguish and great ecstacy can be felt, all while "dreaming".  There certainly is such a reality.  There certainly is such a world.  Welcome.  Dont follow the run of the mill web sites of ......dog is a symbol of loyal friend as a dog is loyal and to see a blank in your dream means blah blah blah. Dreams are much more complicated than that.  First, the dreamer must recite the dream honestly, not adding or taking away.  The interpretor sometimes needs to ask questions to verify certain things, unfortunately, being unable to ask questions limits interpretation to a degree.  First rule of dream telling.  NEVER, I repeat NEVER inform anyone of a bad dream you've had until 3 days have passed.  After that speak.  It is said, in a most whimsical way I know, dreams come on wings and if spoken may fall and occur.  Good dreams on he other hand, can be announced and should be told to many as they will occur.  Every dream has some meaning variable to different degrees depending the content.  Some dreams are actually boring, reruns of the tidbits of life.  Do pay attention to your dreams.  Keep the log, let me know.  Forget the scientists.  They don't deal with the world of the spirit.  

This is the world of the spirit.  Welcome again.

Answer 2

nobody really knows, scientists believe that they are events which we consider important being replayed in our head when we sleep, sometimes random sometimes to organise them.
