Thread: If you resolve a conflict while dreaming, do you resolve it in RL?

This is the part I sometimes have a problem with. Isn't that a soliptic way of looking at things? When I think about that I feel lonely. I know I'm probably mistaken but that's just the general impression I get from it.

What you said definitely rings true in my mind. Loving everyone and everything unconditionally sounds like the right way... but damn it's hard. It's hard to put your guard down like that and give up all that pride you've worked up over the years.

It's so much easier in dreams though! I wonder why that is?

If reality is only one very concrete lucid dream and I discovered this truth without any doubt for myself, I imagine after a while I'd probably just want to forget everything again and go back into the animal kingdom as some clueless animal.

Is it wrong that I hope it's something more?

It is hard. . .its much easier said than done. I think its easier to work things out in your dreams because you're in a pure meditative state.
its not wrong to hope for something more, that's human nature. It is everyone's birthright to use their lives as a chance to reach Oneness.
The good part of all this is that you won't begin your path to oneness until you are mentally and spiritually prepared; that means shedding all your "onion peels" which is a very intense experience. But, judging by your response and philosophy on the matter, I would say you have already begun on your path.
At this point, look at everything that happens to you as a learning experience. Everything that goes wrong, every conflict you get in, its all energetically pre-determined;your life and all the experiences that come with it are manifested by you to help you. You must face each episode with an open heart. Whenever you hit a snag in life, step back and look at it and ask yourself, what can I learn from this? Believe it or not, if it seems the world is against you then that means you're well on your way to getting rid of these built-up layers of emotion and such.

It is a very personal process. But it doesn't have to be a lonely process. There will always be people in your life.
Just thinking about all this, you're already setting a new vibration rate, as your vibration rate and energy changes, people will leave and new people will come into your life. Each person you come in contact with, each relationship you have is set up for a reason, its your job to learn why these people are in your life and to learn from them, and to learn from these relationships.

I don't think you will go back to being a clueless animal. . .unless you really wanted to be. . .I wouldn't mind being a cat. . .

Hey great response HonorableMouse! I wouldn't mind being a cat either

haha.
glad i could help.

Clueless animal? Animals aren't clueless. My fish have their own social hierarchy. Think of how complex cats must be!

Back on topic. If you decide to go for lucid dreaming as a remedy to an anxiety or phobia (better than any therapist's cure!), BE PATIENT. Chances are, that anxiety/phobia developed over a long period of time (or, in the case of instant phobias, it festered for a long period of time). Miracles don't happen in a night. You might have to lucid dream on it for over a week before the effects show.

yeah. cats know whats up. They have full control over the household.
whats even more frightening is watching apes. . .seriously, they're so much like humans its eerie...
