Decipher my dream?
    #21049920 - 12/31/14 07:08 PM (9 years, 4 months ago)

Posted this in the official dream thread in the pub but will post here also:



Ok I have a dream for you guys. It would also be really great if one of you can tell me what you get out of it also. I have my opinion but would also like different perspectives...

So...

The sky is dark and ominous and I see this huge building. It looks like a huge pyramid almost. There's an entrance to this structure. It's bright and really stands out. It almost looks as if it was a whirlpool or vortex. I glance at it for a short period and want to look away but it's hard and next thing you know I'm sucked in.

So inside... I realized how fucked I was. It seems like we're in a Colosseum. There were literally huge monsters/demons running a muck. Killing each other in the worst way you can imagine. What's worst is that these monsters, after being killed, keep getting revived only to repeat the whole process again instantaneously. I'm just a human and was scared shitless of what's about to happen to me. I knew there was no chance of me ever getting out alive and I was going to die a horrible painful death.  So I sit there and totally give up. To my surprise... the demons didn't do anything to me.

So yeah that was it. Let me know what you think please :smile:

Wow, that's a great depiction of what is going on here.
It's either impressions your subconscious has woven together under the influence of all the spiritual material you've been feeding it,
or it's your higher self contacting you and showing you how it is, in a way you would understand.
There's no telling which tho :laugh: ain't it fun?

Exactly... I can never tell which it is. But one thing I do know is that it plays out all to perfectly for me to believe my mind could come up with something like that. And the fact that sometimes my dreams can predict the future.... Where the hell does that come from?

Anyway... Still waiting for someone to try to take a shot at what this dream is actually trying to tell me

Something like
"You're a something out in the vastness that entered this limited existence through a one-way portal. Here you are faced with an experience of struggle and fear (suffering) and the way you avoid it is to give up the struggle."
Yet another way of saying what mystics have been saying since the dawn of civilization.

So let me ask you this.... what does your analysis remind you of? What does it represent? What does it symbolize?

i dunno, to me personally pyramids kinda represent progressed knowledge or the opportunity for progression. like you start at this big wide huge base with lots of bricks or 'parts', and as you understand each level and go up you have less to deal with, then when you reach the top you've gone through it all and can look down on it all at once and see it all together and 'get it'. but represents 'limited' or specific/contained knowledge, as still just one measly pyramind in a big huge universe : P

ithink the terrible endlessly reviving monsters and just giving up and letting go is representative of the same thing in reality, how tehre's endless chains of bad or even good that keep themselves going. basically a 'you did this so i did that so you did that so i did this' on and on forever until someone decides to go 'you know waht fuck it'. maybe also a sign to not judge by appearances which is always useful. for example ive often thought even if aliens came to earth with great intentions theyd prolly destroy us anyway just cause when they landed if they looked anything scary to us (they likely will as thats just another word often for unfamiliar) most of us will probably start screaming and running about in a panic or attacking them, and how else are they gonna respond : P, how would you feel if you were a giant monster stuck in a labyrinth and everyone just screamed when they saw you? not very good i imagine and likely to eventually get fed up with it :P

That actually sounds a bit like Valhalla, which was supposed to be the Viking heaven.

These demons could be aspects of you, that could symbolize attachments that you are not willing to let go. So consider that this pyramid is mystical part of your persona, or your whole self.
And human part of you is a observer of this whole playground which is your concussions mind.
These demons battle as you battle with certain things in your life, if I may say that, like that. :smile:
You gave up on trying to do anything about it, and demons just do their thing.. over and over again. Maybe you should take more control of your "demons"... just a thought. :pipesmoke:

Do you have any form of recurring anxiety/phobias? Cause that dream sounds to me like you might be resuscitating a load of fears and obsessive thoughts only to "kill" them off again, but never resolve them.

Viktor - If that is supposed to be some kind of heaven I do NOT want to go there LOL

Pope and Ivander - Extremely appreciate your feedback. I agree with some points yall are saying and have learned a thing or 2 from your perspectives. This reinforcement is just what I needed.

Mushroomtrip - I do have recurring anxieties and phobias and agree on what you're saying about the reason why I'm dreaming this is because they are never resolved. My anxiety and phobias stem from not knowing which path is the correct or wrong one. Which is heaven and which is hell. Whether to participate in the festivities or not. Kudos for pointing that out I almost missed that.

Then may I suggest something that has helped me a lot in dealing with my own anxieties? Accepting that it isn't the end of the world if I make mistakes, understanding the simple reality that one can't know from before all the consequences of a choice, and embracing the reality that what we all strive for is happiness and pleasure - this last bit might sound like a no-brainer, but how many times do you judge yourself for doing or wanting to do things that would feel good to you? Try to take a look at the education you received from your parents, other relatives and meaningful friends and sort out through these beliefs. Maybe some of them aren't even yours, maybe you never wanted them but still follow their rules because of your fear of mistakes, but this is just another facet of anxiety; in order to alleviate your anxiety, you must let yourself make mistakes. There's no room for judgment, only lessons to be learned. :smile:

So I'll explain what it all means to me:

Quote:

It almost looks as if it was a whirlpool or vortex. I glance at it for a short period and want to look away but it's hard and next thing you know I'm sucked in.




The dark and ominous sky represents just that... the darkness. The pyramid represents the lamp. The bright vortex that sucks you in is none other than the flame. I was an insect that was drawn into the light of this pyramid. And like an insect to the flame I was entering none other than hell.

Quote:


So inside... I realized how fucked I was. It seems like we're in a Colosseum. There were literally huge monsters/demons running a muck. Killing each other in the worst way you can imagine. What's worst is that these monsters, after being killed, keep getting revived only to repeat the whole process again instantaneously. I'm just a human and was scared shitless of what's about to happen to me. I knew there was no chance of me ever getting out alive and I was going to die a horrible painful death.  So I sit there and totally give up. To my surprise... the demons didn't do anything to me.




So inside this flame aka the pyramid, the monsters represent none other than us. The Colosseum vibe I got from it is that we're being watched in hell for someone or somethings entertainment. The pyramid is a game. We start from the bottom.... such as me being human.... and as the players compete against each other in the pyramid they rise higher and higher to the top, as they get higher they turn into even scarier looking shits but at the same time getting more skilled at killing each other.

The reason why I think the pyramid represents hell also is because the monsters keep fighting and competing against one another and ultimately causing each other pain. But the thing is.... they keep getting revived only to experience everything all over again.

I found it insane so I sat down and was thrown out of the vortex for not being a good source of entertainment.......


So knowing all this.... Would you rather keep playing in hell or would you want to opt out of this insanity game? Back into the abyss away from the flame?

The infinity of where we're all One has nothing but itself. There is no outside outside in the experience of One, because the totality of itself everything is within. And that's what it always is, everything is inside even now when you are this human experiencing all of this. The outside that you see is within that which you really are. That's where it gets so tricky. So the omniscent infinite darkness makes sense as such, because in the infinite One within which everything happens there is no experience of anything, except of the 'I am' or in other words 'I exist'. Everything else that happens is the imagination or illusion which this 'I am' creates. It feels wrong talking of it as 'other' when in reality it is only you and you alone.
Another word for 'I am' or 'existence' is also 'life' and another one 'consciousness'. All 4 words are pointing at exactly the same thing. You know that this is you. There is nobody else. You are the only one and you are alone. You didn't come to be, you just are.
The human is a concept inside of a concept, inside of imagination of that which you are. So it's like you set boundaries - made space, which is representative of a pyramid you entered, in order to have this experience. Are you with me?
You made up concepts such as time and space and within them duality of love and entropy, love and fear, love and hate. The light always a constant, the darkness always a hiding shadow. The 'you' and the 'lack of you'.
This does not mean that there are not other realities you created, or the other 'pyramids' as in your dream. You just happen to be within this particular one this time around. There is a strong case for egyptians to have used the pyramids as portals to afterlife, which makes perfect sense in what your dream showed you.
It also showed you the rules of the games within this round of experience - within this 'pyramid'. Letting go and acceptance is the rule here. Nobody that tried it can deny that it really seems to be what being human on planet Earth seems to be all about.

I see your dream as an awesome, understandable simplification of this concept. It'sw in line with all of what the great teachers such as buddha, jesus and haile selasse were saying :smile:

Nice write up. I follow ya!  Dreams are so crazy. I've yet to decide whether this was ingrained into my subconscious somehow or a message from a higher power. Either way dreams imo are not to be taken lightly. They're there for a reason

I am so infinitely glad and relieved I found and joined this place. :]

SilentKnight.  I am glad you shared your dream. . . I really have so much to share with the world. .

Dreams are not real - they're things the mind creates and imagines while we're sleeping.  And isn't the proof of that when we wake up?

When it's a nightmare we wake up from - isn't that a total relief?  That it wasn't real?

So - there are many things you could think about dreams, but the fact is, they're simply illusions.  They're not real.

My life - dreams have always been an indicator of things that are going on in my life. . . so - a bad dream would only occur when something was bad in my life. . . and during the most joyful and peaceful times of my life. . .the dreams of those periods were intensely blissful, and peaceful. . . to the point that I felt I was on the very edge of another world, a spiritual world.  I've always felt they were intimately connected, and I've always been glad when I can find the peacefulness in my life which results in these blissful, spiritual dreams.

I think all of the times I have had a nightmare, I can trace it directly to an experience in my waking life, usually the same day, or very recently before, that was a similar feeling.

The way you are approaching dreams, I would say, it seems to be the symbols and this sort of thing which are important.  I can understand this, but to me it's very different; it has very little, almost nothing at all to do with symbols, and almost entirely to do with feeling. . .

I do understand and believe that symbols can be important, but I believe they are more important as far as causes go, than as to results. .  In other words, the causes of a feeling in your life might be the symbol of something good or bad, something that causes liberation or pain..  The actual meaning of the dream is only the feeling of it. . .

In other words, dreams which have the nightmare aspect - the fear, pain or what have you - these are there because we have those same feelings in our life. . . and if you wish to be free of them, it's very possible. . .

It's also possible that you can "catch"  these things from other people. Sometimes a single word from someone can have a very large effect.

My last thought -  or also, my first thought - is that you say it's not to be taken lightly - I actually believe the opposite - take everything lightly.  I mean - act in the best way - if something needs you to take a stand, then do so with completely courage and alacrity - but as for things in life, in the words of Alan Watts - 'Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.'

Hope this helps :]

Hi and welcome! Glad you're able to appreciate the post.

So - there are many things you could think about dreams, but the fact is, they're simply illusions.  They're not real.




I believe in this 2pac quote buddy: "Reality is wrong. Dreams are for real."

The reason why I believe this is because dreaming exists in this reality of ours. Being apart of the reality makes it very real. This reality can be in fact an illusion though it's pretty subjective. The real world and the dream world are not that far off. Let me explain why:

You ever have one of those dreams where you're sleeping with the tv on? Sometimes the background music actually incorporates into your dream and paints a picture of what's going on. VICE VERSA TOO BUT I WON'T GET INTO THAT (CLASSIFIED INFORMATION).

The thing about dreaming too is when you're in it.... You have no concept of what's real or what's not because you feel it is actually REAL. Usually when people realize they're in a dream is when they wake up... but let me tell you... sometimes people realize they're in a dream but they DON'T wake up. This is when you've become lucid and can explore a whole mystical dream world which is pretty much like heaven on earth but I'm not even going to get into all that.

Quote:

'Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.'




Though true what Alan Watts is trying to say and although I would want to take this world lightly you and me both know we can't in this current state. There are people dying left and right. People blinded by illusions to the point of being sheep. I guess what I'm trying to say is I've never really cared for Alan Watts :shrug:

I dream lucid dreams nightly now, very interesting, fulfilling and sometimes just petrifying. The petrifying ones come about when I don't drink enough water before sleep / am dehydrated. Do you drink plenty of fluids?

The other aspects of the dream... you know, the psyche is one hell of a mystery, don't be surprised if you never get to the bottom of it. Once you start having dreams like this all night in succession you sorta give up on understanding and just try to have the experience.

I dont drink but I do smoke the cannibis also which hinders the dreams a great deal. Just quit today though bcuz I want to get back into lucid dreams.

Lucky man!! Some of my coolest experiences on this earth were in lucid dreams. Do you have a trick to stay in it for long without waking up?

What are the petrifying ones like if I may ask?
