does anyone here believe that you can be shown the afterlife in a dream?

Ian,

Yes absolutely but not very often, these dreams are vivid memorial and usually in full color. I have had a few of these beautiful dreams over my protracted life

The reason i asked this question is that i have experienced a few amazing dreams over the years, in these dreams i have found myself in a place that is very vivid and breath takenly beautiful and very colourful. i can still recall these dreams in every detail.

Ian,

Your vivid dreams indicate that you are a "mind traveler" into other realities dimensions or simply seeing a beautiful place on earth. They mean something and could be prophetic in nature, so write them down. Some of your dreams might be of paradise or the first of three heavens from which you progress towards the light of god.

Try to direct your dreams you might be able to explore our physical universe or even beyond. Bruce Moen in one of his books explains this type of mind travel and I advise you to get them, as they will help you no end in developing this psychic gift to the full.

I hope this helps somewhat and may we have fruitful dialogue into the future.

regards

For me, I can say that it has happened before on a multitude of occasions.

Growing up, I always believed my parents were athiests and so I was one as well as a child. It turns out that my parents actually did have religions but they never forced them upon myself or my sister. I used to have a disdain for religion and think that all of it defied the laws of physics until I was 12 and I had a dream where I was falling down a long chasm and a booming voice was lecturing me on something I did and something about God not forgiving me. I couldn't place my finger on what it was though. Although I never saw what was on the other end of that chasm, I woke up sweaty and scared. I was just a kid at the time but this was a wake up call. In retrospect, I don't think this dream was about beliefs, but it WAS about how I treated everyone around me. It wasn't easy growing up as a child with autism. I wasn't very nice to people around me and mooched off of everyone without ever giving anything back and wanted everyone to be like me. In retrospect it was the worst possible way to be. I didn't even know what empathy was until I was in highschool! Thankfully I was able to start growing past this once I bonded with others and realize that we all have some good in us. Another thing that changed me was getting bullied in highschool, which was a bad thing and it made me depressed, but made me realize what it was like to feel pain and more importantly, how others felt when people take from them without giving back. For me personally, this helped develop empathy, even though for others, it actually made things worse and made them more aggressive. I think it also helped to have a therapist and supportive parents I could talk about my experiences with to help deal with the pain as well as an outlet writing songs and playing music. The combination taught me a lesson about empathy.

My spiritual beliefs started to change when I decided to test something out. After my mom and sister moved out and I visited my mom for the summer, my mom went to the pet store, shopping around for another cat to keep her existing ones company. One I fancied for because she meowed at me, so I prayed that my mom would choose that one. Low and behold that happened so aquiring that cat changed my life. Little did I know that this particular cat would turn out to be what I referred to at the time as "Satan's spawn." However, many years later when my mom remarried, my mom's new husband tamed this cat and turned her into a total sweetheart. I guess in a way I did see something in this cat, maybe the potential to change for the better, with my stepfather's help of course.

My other more recent, much moreso recent afterlife dreams were so recent that they were actually posted on this very forum, namely last year. I remember I was up one night, having chronic obsessive looping thoughts about premature death and was very scared. A google pointed me to Bruce Moen's site. I read about Focus 27 and belief system territories as well as ghosts and reincarnation, all on this site. The idea that everything happens and like attracts like seemed to make more sense than anything else I had read. However I was not sure of whether or not this was right or what the right answer was. I was chronically curious of whether or not there was a single right faith or not. I was very worried about possibilities. I prayed for guidance on this one, asking all of the above questions. Also used this as a guide as to whether or not I should start posting on this very forum. A few days later I had a dream where a bearded man in a burgundy robe, took me around this big white building which I presume was part of Focus 27 and proceeded to tell me about the afterlife. I don't remember what he said exactly but there was one part where he asked me not to enter a certain set of doors because I would interrupt what was going on inside. He then had to leave to take care of some business but let me explore the building on my own, and he left me with one piece of advice: "Remember, God does not look too kindly upon overinflated egos." I explored for a bit before pausing in a hallway and then waking up.

The most recent one was my worries about hell, as some fundamentalists I know just wouldn't let me be so I prayed for guidance about that and what was right, yet again. The dream I was met with shortly afterwards involved hanging out with this team of people who were trying to find hell, if it was real and how to get there. This one woman eventually found it but noted that it was really hard to get there, to even SEE it. She had to strap herself inside of a large gyrating machine that spun her around really fast and told me that even then, she had to think of some magic word and repeat it while visualising something. Basically it was really hard to get there. However the one thing she did not tell me was what was in there so I don't know just how bad it is. Also, it can be noted that it was really easy to get out since she came back and told me about it.

This is all the current afterlife revealing dreams I have had so far and can remember. How do I know how real they are? I'm not sure on that one but I can say that there is a mystic power of dreams to predict things because I have had it happen before. The first case of this was a guy I saw in a dream I had in middle school later turned out to be my highschool gym coach in Freshmen year, which was strange. The second one was in highschool or maybe shortly afterwards in which I saw this room in a dream, and then years later, saw a strikingly similar looking room in real life. I was so astonished by this that I had to get a picture of the room in question, which was doable since I had my camera on me at the time. This to me symbolizes the possible power of dreams and predictions. However, this is not always the case as I have had many a nightmare that didn't happen. In the case of bad dreams, that could be a sign that there is a problem in your life that needs to be fixed, such as facing a phobia that has been ignored for quite some time.

This is my two cents on the matter of afterlife dreams. Hope this was helpful. Peace.

 Hi David, thank you for sharing the above.   Seems like you have grown A LOT since you were younger, and here's to ever more growth.   I really like your self honesty, which i think is a crucial trait to have in growing spiritually.  

 Btw, i get a good vibe when looking at your pic.   Glad you put it up there, especially with that warm smile.  

 Yes, i agree, dreams are an avenue into the nonphysical and important to pay attention too.   For myself, i've realized that nightmares are usually caused by imbalanced body reactions, like eating too much or eating junk food (or otherwise hard to digest food), too shortly before going to bed.   I don't have nightmares anymore at all.   Occasionally i'll have emotionally upsetting dreams, but not outright nightmares wherein i feel terrified.  

I am in the process of realising that dreams are much more than the playing out of hallucinatory meaningless data accumulated by our subconsious throughout the day.  Now, I have always known this, what they were NOT, but was not exactly sure of what they WERE until recently.

I now see that dreams are actually the interpretation of our nightly journeys into other states of consiousness, places so far removed from anything like our physical universe that we can only gain glimpses into these areas by the symbols of which are dreams are made of.  It seems that some places visited during the night are more like our current physical system then others, judging by the level of lucidity during the experience and the level of bizarness of the dream.  

To answer your question, some of these focuses of consiousness in which we visit during the night are most definately areas where newly deceased personalities resonate in between physical existences or existences in other systems.  

one of the most amazing dreams ive every had was about five years ago, i found myself flying over a strange place and i was overcomed by shock. what is happening! i asked myself, have i died? then i felt no fear i felt excited, the scene was crystal clear. i went with the flow and i flew over a place by the sea, it was a bay. there were two giant stone twin towers just of the beach and behind me were green hills with white buidings in them. at will i flew out over the sea and it was green and crystal clear. at this time i did not question where i was, somehow i had accepted it. it's probably the best experience of my life it all seemed so real.i eyed some office type buidings on the sea front and out of curiosity at will i entered these buildings and there was a mirror in a corridor, i could see my own reflection in it and it shook me because i thought i would be invisible,what if someone sees me i thought. with that i woke up.

Dear Ian,

You were Out of Body visiting the Afterlife it seems!  :o The scene and buildings you describe are 'exactly' as Bruce Moen and his teacher Monroe have described them from their visits there!

Considering that you came to this site mainly with questions, now it seems you are actually more experienced than many of us here who have yet to see the shore and 'The Park.'

Now all you need is to stop that moment of fear from blocking your further progress. Have you read all the information listed at the top of this page (click on)? The surprises you can discover need not startle you when you've read that others find the same afterlife there. You can do a great deal of good for yourself and others by getting used to travelling between these states of being!

Congratulations!

Bets

hi bets

i am shocked to hear that is exactly how bruce and his teacher described it.
at the time i was practicing astral projection mental exercises and on the night
i had this experience my body jerked several times upon going to sleep
some people may doubt my experience because they might think ive copied
it from bruce and monroe. i swear it happened. it seems there was something
i had done to induce it but i can't isolate it.

ps. i mean i can't recall the method to induce it. maybe it just happened regardless?

thank you
