Session 55: Dreams
When the consciousnesses is subdued, the next level is the dream state. When one
goes into the first level of sleep it is the aspects that are speaking to you, they express
themselves to the awareness in this dream state in the form of energies. In the next
level, in the form of non-verbal communication. We have converted some of the
energies and verbalization for your understanding.
There are many cases where the aspects are able to verbalize. In the dream state, the
aspects have full range of capabilities to verbalize and manifest themselves in images,
in the form of memories, or other inter-reactions that are taking place within the daily
existence of the individual. The dream is part of the reality of the physical world. Yet, it
is a step beyond the physical reality; it is the energies expressing themselves in
different areas. There are dreams that come from the aspects and there are dreams
from other states where one can get in touch with another reality. There are also
dreams where one can experience the past and the future. There are many levels of
consciousness and it depends upon the ability of the individual as to whether they have
control of their awareness. If one has control of their awareness, then one can use
dreams to enrich their knowledge. If one has dreams of aspects, they can identify where
their problems are occurring. One must not confuse the dream states. One must
understand the dream states and use them much like one walks through the physical
and takes the various experiences and uses them. When one can reach levels – the
aspects – the past and present – one can then penetrate other areas of consciousness.
When one has this type of an experience and then comes back into the physical and
attempts to interpret and relay the experience, it will be like a dream. One can recognize
dreams, bring back certain kinds of memories, depth of color, and perception. This is
like when one tries to remember the past. The dreams as they are being experienced
are in a sense real. They become a reality of the individual, much as your physical
memories exist.
