Publisher Description: As is the case when we wander into remote wilderness areas, or practice Zen meditation, the simple act of making sense of a dream can bring about a fleeting encounter with that which is more real than we ourselves are and sees everything in a truer way than we do. We find ourselves freed from the limitations we've imagined ourselves bound by, and rendered more susceptible to the sensual, emotional, intuitive, spiritual, and creative. Our lives turn in a different direction. The way we approach dreams changes. No longer content to "incubate" the dream we think we want, or to "control" the lucid dream we try to make ourselves have, we begin to realize that ordinary dreams arising spontaneously bring what's of greater value to us by far. Not at all about answering our silly questions or affording us entertaining experiences, they devote themselves simply to revealing the reality of our present situation and delivering up to us the kinds of questions we'd best start asking ourselves. |
