Have you ever dreamed that you were naked in front of a crowd and you felt exposed?
Or you had a dream that you were going down a hill,
And you were pumping the break and you couldn't stop and you were out of control?
Or another dream is that you are being chased by a malevolent pursuer
And they're chasing you along the mountain top and you can't get away.
What do these dreams mean? Are they meant to torment you or are they meant to help you?
My view is that these dreams are meant to help you in terms of dealing with the terror in yourself so you can become clear.
It's one thing to say I had a nightmare and I was upset by it and thank God it was only a dream.
It's another thing to say "Okay, I had this nightmare,
And I've been chased by a dark man in a dark mask."
To be able to turn around and say, "Who is this man?"
To look back in your life and say, "Who is this man? Is this my father? Is this my uncle? Is this a teacher? Who is this?"
So that you can stop running from them.
That's the purpose of dreams,
In order to use them as intuitive prompts,
So that you're not running away from yourself all the time and leading a life
That's driven by fear. ~BOTDF
