I had a terrible dream.
And then I woke up just as I was going to be violently killed, but still was dreaming, knowing it was a dream I changed it so it was what I wanted in the dream, no fear or hate but full of love and compassion, it was so simple, all I had to do was to make it so. Life IS a dream. I think we've all heard that life is what we make of it, but we haven't the power to change the world, to make it a better place for ourselves, so we struggle to live, fight for a better tomorrow for ourselves, and our love ones. In the dream I had only to change my world view in order to change the reality, knowing it was only a dream. That John lennon song comes to mind now, and I think I will lay down and try to remember it before I sleep. Good nite all.Peace.

4. Every person has the power to positively change self in profound ways.
And in so doing, to collectively change the world.

Dream well.

5. It's like Shakespeare said
"Life is but a dream"... I wonder if it really is. That's intriguing, that life would be just a dream and when we die we wake up into our immortal lives or something... I'll have to meditate on that.

6. Wonder without limitations in your meditation
Edited on Thu Jul-21-05 10:03 PM by bonito
there is no death as it is widely perceived here, god is immortal, and you are of god, or as I call what is , because I am. I meditate on my breath at nite because it's really out of my control, closer to my essence without my input. knowing the air I breath in, is god, and breathing out is god as well. And the death is nothing but leaving one place of comfort(not relay) in my mind, too another place closer to what is. Life's a journey I hope my experiences only help others along there's, no, its more selfish than that, it is because I know we are one. I had to add this god, life, love, all the same thing to me, and if you try what I do in meditation you have to keep love in you heart and not fear, because your in for a ride. Peace.
