If you're continuously meditating throughout the day, even during daily activities (being actively calm and calmly active) you may note that during unpleasant dreams, old karmas might just be taken from us, or falling away...
Just a thought, Steve.
It is nice to know that some of your thoughts coincide with my own and my dreams as well. They could point to a deeper meaning toward such dreams. As an example ; I have heard reports for years now about Amish people who live in our area being hit by cars and killed or have been in critical condition as a result of drivers apparently being careless by texting or not driving slow enough when seeing these people in buggies or riding bicycles. Consider for a moment what conversations would be taking place in their communities because of our technology being so destructive or the dangerous nature of those who operate it. The emotions I associate with accidentally hitting someone and having to live with that for the rest of my life seems terrifying.
I was just thinking about how are daily events cross over into our nightlife so that it is difficult to determine and untangle dreams that are more of a supernatural nature from those dreams that are a result of daily life and emotions. Especially since last nite I had a dream in which someone-not me- was being accused of homicide. Yet in the dream I was also questioning whether I myself could have committed homicide or been accused of it.
There can also be, as you mentioned UWE, the element of having committed such a crime in one of countless past lives, that may be why I’m in an area where such things are more common place at the moment. Some of these ‘accidents’ could also be attributable to bad lighting or no lighting on carriages or bicycles. But even if that we’re so, these accidents could be avoided by being extremely cautious at dawn and dusk as well as dark.
I remember driving long distances to see for instance Amma in many of her tours of our country and she said at many of these gatherings that ‘we do not know how many times and at any moment of the journey, that some unforeseen accident can take place and how much are safety and the safety of others is determined by divine grace.’
I often think 🤔 what would some alien race think of the chaotic method we have of driving in such close quarters with others (Much of which is a direct result of population density and growth.) and the chance we have of being distracted or preoccupied causing accidents in our travels. So usually I attempt to remember to ask for divine protection before leaving and upon a return from such trips as well as short ventures in the area. And, at times during the outing remember the presence of the divine as a protection.
