I’ve had several dreams unfold in shocking detail over the course of the last seven years or so, so I’m no stranger to this. However, something lined up unexpectedly last weekend that might be the most unbelievable one to date. I feel I’m in the presence of something much, much greater than myself and I’ll admit to feeling, let’s say, humbled and a bit afraid. Like I’m not alone. I asked the AYP ai helper about dreams:
“In the yogic scriptures, precognitive dreams are considered siddhis—super-normal powers or spiritual gifts that naturally occur as by-products of nervous system purification. The sources point out that experiencing a dream that physically comes true serves an evolutionary purpose: it forces you to reevaluate your current perception of time (past, present, and future) and your connection to the universe. By showing you that physical reality is deeply interconnected with your inner awareness, these detailed dreams act as a profound prompt to nudge you away from identifying with your limited “false self” (the ego) so that you can begin to discover your true, universal Self”
This feels correct, but I’m still at a loss and a bit shaken. And this is all on the heels of running into my spiritual mother in the woods again on a recent trip. My instincts say to accept it all without much notice (too late, I’m noticing) and continue to act normally. The ordinary is now the test itself. Don’t make a big deal about it. Wake up, go to work, go to yoga, cook dinner, work on my art, love others. If I can pull off my daily life in the face of how compelling all this is (or without fretting too much), it’ll be alright. The task is to keep dancing and don’t let this “greater thing” make me lose my groove.
I hope this makes sense. I don’t feel insane, and nobody around me is concerned for me. In fact, quite the oposite: everybody close to me keeps saying how happy they are to see me doing so well. I’m just a bit dumfounded, and I guess maybe afraid. Have I been here before? Is my fate set in stone? What of my fears and desires during this process?
Always grateful to hear from others.
With love,
