Dreaming Within A Dream

June 16/2018

Is it possible to dream that you are dreaming? And if so, what does it mean? Recently I experienced a very unusual and interesting nighttime dream. Although my dream itself was nothing unusual, it did offer me a new and potentially educational scenario and inner learning potential.

Without going into unnecessary detail, my "weird" dream began with me asleep. As I was sleeping, I became aware that I also was dreaming that a couple of acquaintances had accidentally blown themselves up resulting in the death of one of them. As my dream progressed, I increasingly became aware of my "dream-within a dream", and attempted to prevent the activity and possible death of my friend. To make a long story short, I never succeeded in this attempt, and my"dream-within a dream" ended up actually occurring.

So what, you might ask? Is this psychic knowledge? Is this a warning? Or is this truly "nonsense". For me, none of these potential meanings resonated. But this dream turned out to be truly significant and educational. Dreaming is such a subjective and personal phenomenon, that this dream for me proved to be a means of both philosophical and spiritual insight, resulting in a much improved knowledge of my own personal beliefs about free will and control/influence of significant others, EVEN IF I MIGHT KNOW BETTER! My "dream-within a dream" was actually was actually teaching me that I have no moral right to enforce my beliefs and/or will on anybody but myself...

And I learned this valuable lesson not from any formal course, lesson, or expert, but simply from dreaming a "dream-within a dream" paying attention, and acting upon my new-found inner knowledge! Every time you remember a dream, regardless of how small,silly, or seemingly insignificant the dream might appear, the potential is also there for new, true and deep personal insight and growth.
