I think like in our life events, sometimes God has a sense of humor in our dreams. Listening to Sadhguru talk about being conscious in everything it reminded me of you when he said… be more conscious in; sex, dying, eating and…….’SLEEPING’. You have taken sleeping to a transcendental level.
There just seems to be so many lapses of awareness in life’s activities. It is a constant challenge to have our attention span on what we are doing and to do it consciously!
Thanks Steve. I still intend to watch the videos you posted. Presently I am in the living room and we have a movie blaring in the background. I just wanted to share that I think sometimes dreams can be warnings too.
Here's the dream as I recall,
amazing drum skills, cocainei don't play the drums...
but in last nights dream i was playing the drums in a very appealing way. it was an extremely creative rhythm.
by the end of the dream my first gf's "friend" art was there complimenting on my drumming and i smuggled a sock with cocaine the old fashion way... which excited everybody and we did cocaine before i woke up. the color of the sock and everyones clothes were black.
i went to bed really late(for me) just past midnight, and woke up just before 6. very little sleep.

And here's my interpretation later on...
This morning, I did a little research on my dream. Curious to potential meaning.
https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/omtalks/group-log-document-your-daily-dreams-log-only-t1618-s2445.html#p28582It started coming together later on. One, I almost had an episode at work and had to run and grab my black compression socks. The black socks have been a thing today, I thought about the dream again when I was holding my regular black socks after working out.
Two... Basically, I have to be carful with what I'm pulling out of my ass(Smuggling the drug out for others the old fashioned way. Not seeing reality as is but creating desire webs/wants).
It seems I am enjoying a different rhythm, or learning how to get used to one.
And the cocaine symbol is a dangerous element, suggesting to be cautious with my desires. I am energetically pushing my lesser desires(mostly sexual) out in my circles, including where I work and perhaps it is becoming noticeable by others. And even though it may seem exciting(humans being drawn to drama), it is not a healthy thing(a drug)... and considering the reality of the different situations it might even be a potential breach of moral conduct.
I don't pretend I am a saint, and I don't admit to having the answers.
But trying to form some meaning I think it might be wise to transmute the sexual desires in a more agreeable or creative manner. I hope I can create harmony and not chaos. Sometimes I struggle with wanting to appease the little self. Life is short... and all too often, the what ifs excite me.
However... I think this dream is a forewarning.
I've read a lot of wisdom from HIK(hazrat inayat khan) and I can hear his lessons on the spirituality of renunciation. There is a greater self we aren't always aware of, and the joy from that realization is often described by PY(paramahansa yogananda) as ever-new bliss. I don't think that realization is preoccupied with lesser, carnal desires. But I also remember reading that true renunciation comes when the soul is ready... If you renounce something not because you actually want to but think it will shortcut you to selfless awareness/Self Realization, it just won't happen.
Indeed I have strong carnal desires at times and even seek a little promiscuous activity from feeling bored or lonely with day to day routine. But... I actually enjoy structure and have since learned that often ideas are greater than the reality of a situation. Maybe I have to undo what I've already done... Or can change course while I'm at this fork in the road. Choice...
