So this morning I had a dream with my deceased great grandfather.  We were having a conversation.  From what I can remember, we were talking about the afterlife.  I said that we live eternally.  His reply to that ( to the best of my memory ) was... "yeah, but thats a difficult program to get into."

What did he mean by that?  I woke up, trying to figure it out.  I slipped back into a light dream state, and found myself reading a journal with notes from the dream.  This journal was in my mind, of course.  There was something in it that I don't remember in the dream.  It was a note, saying something about fear stunting the growth of flourishment in the afterlife.    

Perhaps this experience was telling me that my great grandfather is possibly in need of a retrieval- although I've had past experiences which suggest the contrary.  Besides my many dreams I've had of him in focus 27 type areas, I once had a meditation-induced vision of him as an evolved, angelic, almost nonhuman being.  So perhaps this was just a general message.  Of course, I really don't feel it was something I needed.. this is not news to me.  So maybe it's something else?  Any ideas?

Hello Dude:

I'm kind of late on this, I haven't looked at the dream forum for a while.

Perhaps you were being told that becoming one with the light isn't easy, because fear prevents souls from doing so.
