So There I was....

REALIZATION : There's nothing quite like a horrifying nightmare to help wake you up. (I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer)

This morning: Horrifying nightmare. Have not had one of those for many years.

The dream... I have a small car, a Fiesta mini compact. I had driven into the opening of a large sewer. There was a cover over it but the cover had become loosened on two of the four bolts and swung open when I drove over it. The car went halfway into the opening and was hanging there with the back wheels slightly off the ground.

I managed to get out of the car and a young man stopped to help. As we were talking about what to do the back wheels of the car came down to touch the ground. I decided to get back in and back out. But when I got in, my weight changed the balance again and the car with me in it moved forward into the opening more than it had before. Now only a slight contact of the roof of car with the top of the opening kept everything from completely submerging into who knows what...

So there I was. It was dark and no way to get out....I was forced to wake up. End of dream?

The mind works in it's own way and loves imagery. I'm sure this is reflecting a situation I'm dealing with. The mind's way of showing what is happening. I was almost out of debt for some urgently needed expenses, electrical work, but then there were some surprise vehicle expenses, so back into debt. Yup. It's pretty clear this is the mind acting it out in imagery. Gotta love the mind...

I had heard my spiritual teacher, Srila Prabhupada, explain how we are infected with so many reactions from millions of lifetimes. It is like disease.

I visited an aura healer about 33 years aho and she saud as I left: what you have is worse than the worst disease.
I felt at peace and still do.

Dreams, the expression og the mind, soul mixed with experiences and the vibes we detect.

What I learned from this dream... How some dreams work. This was the mind creating a drama that captured my anxiety about a debt experience. The proverbial... "in the hole." I was almost out and then got hit with some emergency expenses... electrical wiring in the house... so there I was back in the hole....

But I also got from this dream how since in the dream there was no way to solve the problem. I couldn't get out of the car and the car was headed for unknown depths (of course someone could intervene and pull the car out) but in the dream that did not happen and I saw no way out under my own power... so the only thing to do was wake up!

This is the actual the situation. We are in illusion. Like a dream. Identifying with this temporary material body, it's pains fears pleasures, etc. but there will come a point at which the body will not find a solution.... what we refer to as death... At that time the only solution, if we have been avoiding it, is to wake up... I am not this body. I have been dreaming.
Cool dream..... But after all it is just a dream....
Stay safe...
