Q: What is the meaning of recurring dreams, especially fearful ones?
Hai: Well these recurring dreams sometimes reflect concerns within your mind, aspirations, hopes, wishes, fears, anxieties, depending upon the nature of the dream. You must think about the situation, think about thing which comes to you with fear. And if you take the image which comes to you, what you must do is rewrite the story. So you take image, which comes to you in dream, and you think of this image that comes to you regularly in dream with fearful associations and you create some positive thing, some happy thing, some hopeful thing. This will undermine the anxiety within your dream image. You must rewrite the story, rewrite the script.
Q: You mean change my way of thinking?
Hai: Well it more changing the way of automatic thinking in your subconscious mind and you can work upon it with your conscious mind by feeding in a positive image, a positive feeling, a positive hopeful message, yes. This is the way to defeat repetitive dreams which are troublesome.
Q: I used to sleep walk and talk when I was younger. Do you have any knowledge of the subject?
Hai: Well it is just because you are like in a dream, yes? You converse with those in your dream and your body may act out what you are thinking about, what you are conducting in your dream. It is like the physical senses have not shut off. Most times when you all dream you have your inner dialogue in you mind and you see all manner of strange things, all manner of colours, all manner of discussion. But yet your physical body to a point is disconnected from this; not totally by any means, but to a point and in your case your body is less disconnected. And so your mind, your brain, triggers these movements, these responses to what you experience within your mind. It is just a simple matter of connections being triggered or not triggered and the extent to which they are not triggered.
It’s like a dog you see. A dog lies in front of hearth, leg twitches, ears twitch, because it has a dream, but it does not start running around the room. But you are like the dog that does go running round the room, for your body's connections are not disassociated from the dream process as is the case for some of the time when you dream and as is the case for others who dream.
