Dreams predict the future

Can Dreams predict the future?

I think..... all dreams come true, but not always as we see them in the dream. I have a standard answer for this question which I copy below. I notice that this question is getting more and more frequent on this site. It is encouraging to see that dreamers today come out freely with this mysterious happening. Not so long ago people were afraid of talking about it fearing that others will think they are mad. But they are not mad, they are very sharp observers and also very fortunate for it is a sign of waking up to the true meaning of life. Here is my lenghty answer to this mystery. If I made it shorter I would not do the dream proper justice.

Dreaming things ahead comes up quite often on this site; I am keeping count of it and process the results. The odds are in favour of dreams coming true. I have studied this matter for forty years and have learnt to read dreams the way you read your news paper. I see my dreams coming true every day and beyond.

Those who say dreams do not come true have not studied them. They speak off the cuff. If anyone says to you: “Dreams are not of the future, ask them this question: “How many dreams have you recorded and followed up?” And by following up I mean looking at what happens every day and beyond that might correspond with your dreams recorded.

Most people are aware of déjà vus. The sceptics will say that déjà vu is coincidence or a trick of the brain. Apart from one exception where there is a faulty neurological function, the déjà vu stems from a dream.

Those who have actually seen clearly that the déjà vu is based on a dream are very fortunate, for they can understand from EXPERIENCE that dreams do indeed come true and that those who speculate otherwise are speaking in ignorance.

When you have had this déjà vu experience and realised that it stemmed from a dream it is a sign of spiritual awakening. In time you will discover that dreams are the blue print for your life and that everything is planned for you and that there is really nothing else to be done but to enjoy the 'ride'. What I am about to reveal now is the most open secret of life which many fail to discover because they are engrained in the brain wash of western scientific prejudice.

I have made a lifelong study of the future factor of dreams and found that ALL dreams are about the FUTURE. At the beginning of our AWAKENING to this fact we can only see those dreams come true that manifest literally, those which are coming true as you have dreamt them, in short, those that manifest as DÉJÀ VUS.

As you focus more on this phenomenon, you will see that dreams are the basis of all PSYCHIC PERCEPTION. They are the cause not only of DÉJÀ VU, but also of PREMONITIONS, of INTUITION, INSTINCT and ALL PSYCHIC PHENOMENA as well. The difference between these and the DÉJÀ VU is that you have no recollection of the dream that told you what would happen or where an IDEA or INSPIRATION or PREMONITION etc. came from.

I said ALL dreams come true, but only few in the way we see it happen in the dream. Those we miss coming true have come true in a figurative or METAPHORICAL manner.

Example: you may dream that you are sailing on a cloud through the skies. When you wake up you won't of course fly up there, but instead you will FEEL AS IF you were up there sailing through the clouds. And if you were asked how you felt on the day of this dream, you would most likely say: "I AM ON CLOUD NINE!"

We are so used to metaphors in our daily speech that we don't even realise that we use them constantly. We take them for granted but when the dream uses them we find it 'weird'. Just look at some oft the daily metaphors we use in waking life such as: He stabbed me in the back, he is a pain in the neck, she is caught in a vice, he is weak kneed, he shot himself in the foot, you haven't got a leg to stand on, he has fallen in love... FALLEN?? Why do we say FALLEN? Do we mean this literally or metaphorically? The latter of course and so does the dream with all of its metaphors.

Once you learn the language of the dream you will realise that we are in the hands of a power that is much grater than our little selves. Once you have realised deeply that dreams are your PROMPTERS at the footlights of the THEATRE OF LIFE, you will learn to resign to that Power that knows all and IS all.

Indeed, you will understand that you are not separate from that Power. You will also see that TIME IS AN ILLUSION. You will comprehend then that when we are awake we are governed by that part of the brain that slows everything down to a step by step perception of reality, and you will also see that when we are asleep and dream that another part of the brain is at work; one that allows you to see some distance into the future, one in which the barriers of time have broken down to a certain extent.

One of the best pieces of evidence that time is illusory and has different speeds is the Near Death Experience during which many persons in the grips of dying see their whole life passing before their eyes on 'fast forward' at such a high speed that it only takes minutes to cover an entire life experience in the tiniest details.

With this in mind you realise that THE BRAIN HAS THREE BASIC ‘GEARS’: The first ‘gear’ being the waking gear where things move slowly moment by moment with the future remaining totally hidden.

The second ‘gear’ is the dream gear. There time and space are contracted like the information in a zip program for the computer. Once unscrambled on the ‘desktop’ it will reveal facts and events of the future.

The third gear is the ‘fast-forward’ gear that comes into action as you approach death.

There is also a fourth slot for your gears stick: ‘NEUTRAL’.

This neutral position is the most difficult to grasp. Only the mystical experience will open up the brain to that most incomprehensible of all ‘gears’. I called it ‘neutral’ because it is open to all directions simultaneously: you experience past, present and future in one instant. It is the supreme evidence that time is an illusion.

I am appending the most recent witness to this phenomenon; one who has taught the modern world all about dreams and psychology. He is Dr. Carl Jung. Here is what he said about this ‘neutral gear’: “We shy away from the word ‘eternal’, but I can describe the experience only as the ecstasy of a non-temporal state in which present, past and future are one…How can I imagine that I exist simultaneously the day before yesterday, today, and the day after tomorrow? … The only thing that feeling could grasp would be a sum, an iridescent whole, containing all at once expectation of a beginning, surprise at what is now happening, and satisfaction or disappointment with the result of what happened. One is interwoven into an indescribable whole and yet observes it with complete objectivity.”
(Page 327; C. G. Jung Memories, Dreams, Reflections; Collins, ‘The Fontana Library’.)

This experience shows that we, who have not had it, are simply split personalities, split into the dreamers and ‘wakers’. And the ultimate purpose of studying and interpreting dreams is to realise that we are split and that the dream is ultimately the rainbow bridge to total integration of the SELF.
