Spirituality, for me, is everyone’s natural connection with the wonder and energy of life...and the instinct to explore that experience and its meaning.

Dreams
After my mother died I had been feeling guilty and blamed myself for a few things. One night I was wide awake in my bed. I saw my mother! She looked incredibly well and told me that she was fine and that I shouldn’t worry. I went to wake my wife up to tell her that my mother had entered the room, but as soon as I did this she vanished.
Peter, 70

Introduction to Sigmund Freud’s Theory on dreams
Freud believed the dream to be composed of two parts - the manifest and the latent content. The manifest content can be thought of as what a person would remember as soon as they wake – what they would consciously describe to someone else when recalling the dream. Freud suggested that the manifest content possessed no meaning whatsoever because it was a disguised representation of the true thought underlying the dream. A fascinating website with lots of information.

The philosophy of dreams - by Sri Swami Sivananda
The analysis of dreams and their cause by psychoanalysts are defective. They maintain that the cause of dream creation lies in the suppressed desires of the dreamer. Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj is an Advaita Vedantin of Sri Sankara’s School, he is unique in that in his life and teachings he synthesises the highest idealism and dynamic practical life. His “Divine Life” is ideal life, ideal and divine only because it is possible to live it here and now.
