i still believe that sometimes my dreams are just 'more' than experiences in waking life....i go by how i feel. do you ever get those lucid (or non lucid) dreams where everything is just that little bit sharper, that little bit more coherent, that 'makes sense' more than regular dreams?

weirdly enough, last night i dreamt my dad had died. i was experiencing very real feelings of grief, and huge amounts of denial.

then my dream skipped a scene, that how i can describe it, but i never notice and go with it, i can have weird dreams and still act like it is normal.

anyway, i'm in some pub, and from what i'm thinking, i gather that it's a place where normal people 'think of' and end up...although i didnt think of this at the time, it clearly resembled people meditating and ending up in this higher consciousness place. i was saying that people from the u.k, australia, and america were here, but by that, i just meant that anyone in the world could access this place by thought.
i'm sat down on a table, with a few of my family, bar my dad. next thing i know my grandad strolls in with a smile - he has been dead for over 3 years, and i rarely see him in dreams. this is the clearest i have ever seen him. it was like reality. i was still in this dream flow, i said hi. how are you? etc. it came into my head that perhaps that this place is accessed by thought, that i could manipulate it somehow. i shouted 'stop', with intent, and everything fell silent, the jukebox stopped, people looked at me, as if i was breaking the rules. i then get a thought flash into my head saying 'c'mon now, none of us need to be that controlling in here'.

i sense around in this place, whilst talking to my grandad, which was amazing in itself. i was saying to him 'i really like it here, that energy i can sense, it's so inviting and warm'. i felt completely welcome.

the scene skips and i see my dad, who i believed was dead in my dream, and grandad. i was talking, i wanted proof that they were dead yet still capable of contact with me......i see my grandad in deep concentration. i start floating in the air, he is allowing me to float.....we are on a road and i see traffic coming towards me, i keep saying 'dont let me go', but i get a feeling that i should let go and trust him, i do, and the cars vanish, i then experienced the most amazing feeling in the world, whilst being in the air, it felt like everything, all traumas we experience in this life, were let go, i felt like this mass of humming energy. 

then i'm placed back down and see my dad and grandad walk away into this crowd, i think i can still see them, but then they're gone.


apologies if that was boring, but it was one of those dreams that you feel you must write down. i've never had one like it. i woke up with a headache.....

...interestingly, a program that i use for music shows you at the bottom of the screen what people are searching for, this refreshes about every 3 seconds....i get up this morning after the dream, open up the program, and what shows up on there for well over a minute? - 'all is love'  Grin how i chuckled inside! 

Interesting post Chris.

I just thought i'd share my experience that happened last night that really caught me off guard.

Lately i have been asking/praying whatever you like, for truth in the world, or something to that extend...(I've been reading/researching alot on the events of 9/11 that have kinda got me bummed out)

Anyway, for the past few nights, i've been having alot more dreams that i can remember. Most are nonsense, alot of subconscious related events.

But i was having one last night, after a extremely restless night ( i went to bed at 6 am this morning...). I was having a mundaneing dream about me planting C4 on a Anti-Aircraft gun...haha yes yes i know sounds wierd, but i've been playing alot of video games as of late...

Well, out of the blue, i heard a voice that simply said "Hi"...Now normally i never hear voices in my dreams, most everything is implied..But this was diffrent...It was the voice of a young woman, it was very friendly and inviting.

But as soon as i heard it I shot up in my bed, completely awake and on guard and aware...But i wasn't scared or anything, and actually a bit upset that i didn't try to converse.

This is the first time i can recall any voice in my dream being so vivid, and it seemed to happen right in the middle of that mundaneing dream that i was having almost like it interupted..It even felt to me like the sound came right through the wall, and it even looked like an audio wave.( you know that goes up and down when someone speaks/notes are played.)

It was very strange to me, just thought i'd share. It was really neat though, i'd hope it happens agian.
