Section 3 - The Dream Theory
The Dream Theory
From out of the Nyall concepts discussed already
there arises its most profound theoretical ideal; the cornerstone of
which is the distinction between memory (Minne, cp. Odin’s raven
Munnin) and perception (thought- Hugr, cp. Odin’s raven Huginn). There
is a difference between reality and thought. All of our perceptions are
simply the recognition that new memories have originated through an
interplay with the events. They always arise by reactions to stimuli
and are never a part of an ‘imaginary’ process. As we have stated,
bioinduction is telepathy and when we dream we are taking place in the
bioinduction process with a being somewhere else. That person can be
anywhere in the universe, even, in some special cases (such as the one
shown above), here on earth. Our dream experiences are the real
experiences of the person we exchange energies with (it is interesting
to note the word ‘exchange’ because the phrase “vixla litum”
[exchanging of the litr, the inner essence of the gods placed within
humans] was considered a shamanistic practice among our ancestors).
Such ‘faring forth’ is in actuality lucid dreaming. The concept of
‘exchange’ implies interaction with two people, as is shown here). Thus
the person who is actually experiencing these events is ‘giving’ us our
experience and is therefore called a dreamgiver. When a dreamer does
not understand what the dreamgiver is doing this can cause erroneous
interpretation (memory substitution). This is why so many see the
“symbols” of their own life when they record a dream. People tend to
cover the real life instances of the dreamgiver with images from their
own life when they record the dream. Once you dispose of this type of
dream consideration the dreams themselves become clearer to you and the
loss of anxiety over figuring out dream symbology with confusing
psychoanalytical terms can strengthen your biofield.
It is important to understand the nature of dreams
because that in itself strengthens your dream energy. Strong dream
energy will allow you to have lucid dreams, positive dreams, and will
allow you to easily remember them. Sleep, the immediate corollary of
dreams, is a state of receiving an energy vital to man, in which dream
energy is included as a factor. Other factors which build up dream
energy are: a positive attitude, a healthy diet with plenty of dark
green vegetables and water, fresh air, listening to classical music
(which stimulates the mind) and an unstressful environment. Meditation
will definitely help as well, for it allows one to gain the focus
needed to perform the procedures required for obtaining lucid dreams,
which builds up dream energy.
Stephen LaBerge concluded in his expose on Lucid
Dreaming that the idea of the dream world being real is a good
possibility, though he does not quite go as far as we do:
“If early humans believed they had discovered in the
dream a second “real world” what might they have meant? Did they merely
mean that the dream world had a subjectively verifiable existence? That
dreams were only real while they lasted? Or that dreams existed
actually and objectively in some subtle plane(t) of existence every bit
as real as the physical world?”
“Is there any evidence suggesting that dreams can be
objectively real? Several enigmatic phenomena seem to raise the
possibility that, in some circumstances, the dream world may be at
least partially objective. One of these enigmas is the uncanny
experience in which a person feels he or she has somehow temporarily
left his or her body (or the feeling of falling one gets when drifting
between consciousness and sleep, which is catching the bioinduction
process while it is happening –ed.). Survey data indicate that a number
of people have had such out-of-body experiences (O.B.E.s) at least once
in their lives. Very frequently, those who have this experience becomes
unshakably convinced that they, or at least some part of themselves,
are capable of an existence independent of their bodies.”
On the latter note we have to say rightly so because
the process which deals with energy exchanges that cause dreams are the
same that deal with life force (bioradiation and memory-collection)
moving forward after death, that is, the bioinduction process. In fact,
we can attribute any exchange of bio-energies across space with this
concept. When we strengthen our own personal biofields the bioinduction
process builds up and a clearer channel of communication can take place
between you and your dreamgivern
Lucid dreaming is induced once you become aware that
you are dreaming while you are asleep – in the dream process. This
means that you have become aware of the dream-dreamgiver relationship,
as does the dreamgivern. You feel like you are in total control of
yourself, but only because the dreamgiver’s telepathic energies have
united more closely with yours through your awareness. Once you have
experienced this, if you have not, you will realize just how powerful
awareness is, for the dream will then seem more real than reality
itself. Sometimes you may even wake up and wonder if you are still
dreaming, and indeed there will be times when you actually will be.
There are guidelines one can use to help them
achieve the lucid dream state. Follow them carefully and with a strong
intent. They come from LaBerge’s book Lucid Dreaming:
1. Each night tell yourself a considerable amount of times that you are
dreaming so as to get it into your memory before sleep.
2. Each night tell yourself that you want to remember your dream when
you wake up.
3. When you wake up your first thought should be, ‘what was I
dreaming?’ Then recall your dream and write it down in a dream log. If
you can’t remember the dream, think of what you are feeling at the
present moment. This should help you remember.
4. During the day continuously tell yourself that your waking life
effects your dreaming life (for the memory-collection is always
conscious).
5. Before going to sleep you must invoke your mental energies to allow
yourself to fully understand the dream state. We must intend on
becoming lucid in order to actually do so. Remember – “I am”.
6. Always ask yourself- “Am I dreaming or not?” at least 5-10 times at
bedtime and while falling asleep is also favorable.
7.
a. Allow yourself to passively enter the dream scenery. Forcing will
cause the dream to fade.
b. While going to sleep, imagine that your body is somewhere else,
doing something other than lying in bed, though do not forget that you
are entering the dream state.
c. Concentrate on the idea, while you are falling asleep, that you will
no longer perceive your body.
As soon as you have fallen asleep it is possible to
float freely, as a point of awareness, in a space which seems to be
identical with the place in which you went to sleep.
8. Another method is to count to yourself (“One, I am dreaming; two, I
am dreaming; three, I am dreaming…”) while drifting off to sleep. The
result is that at say “fourty-eight, I am dreaming” you actually will
be.
9. You can also simply tell yourself before going to sleep “tonight, I
will have a lucid dream.” But you must truly intend to have one.
10. M.I.L.D. (Method of Inducing Lucid Dreams):
1. During the early morning, when you have awakened spontaneously from
a dream, go over the dream several times until you have memorized it.
2. Then while lying in bed and returning to sleep, say to yourself,
“Next time I am dreaming, I want to remember to recognize I am
dreaming.”
3. Visualize yourself as being back in the dream just rehearsed, only
this time, see yourself realizing that you are in fact, dreaming.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until your intention is truly fixed or you fall
asleep.
11. You can make a recording set to go off at a certain time that will
tell you in your own voice that you’re dreaming. There are devices that
aid in this, such as one that flashes red lights as soon as the eyes go
into R.E.M. stage.
Lucid dreams can definitely make a positive impact
in your life and put you on a new course of thinking. You may want to
watch out for some tricks the mind may play on you, such as false
awakenings, which can be stopped by causing yourself to spin around in
your dream. That’s right, when you are lucid you seemingly have control
of your dreams, for your awareness of the dream state raises your dream
energy to such a level that both you and the dreamgiver are aware of
what is going on and both minds become one.
There is an instance, thought it is very rare, when
the dreamgiver can be controlled by the dreamer, or vice-versa. This is
caused by what I call Telepathic Auto Suggestion (T.A.S.). It is the
act of using the bioinduction process to “hypnotize” the receiver of
the energies ina sort of way. When shamans or mediums allow
“spirits” to “enter” them and speak through them this is actually what
is happening. The medium has become the dreamgiver on a lucid level and
has allowed the dreamer (or one who has sent their bioradiation in one
way or another) to “take over” through T.A.S. This type of situation
can be dangerous, especially if there is a Helstefna being who may wish
to use T.A.S. by force, which we would call “possession”, but usually
this only happens to very vulnerable people with extremely weak energy
who cannot fend off such attacks.
Dream telepathy extends throughout the universe,
through all three planetary lines- Helstefna, Primigene, and Liftefna.
When nightmares occur they are almost always from a Helstefna world,
except for those cases when one is reaching out for help from a bad
situation on a primigene world or something similar to that. Most
ordinary dreams come from primigene worlds where things can be
pleasant, boring, dangerous, or even sometimes scary- like our world.
Most pleasant dreams, where all is beautiful and alluring, occur on
Lifstefna worlds where gods and regenerates live. Use nightmares to
build yourself up, trying to figure out what is causing your mind to
connect to such a horrible place until the nightmares stop. A
comparison of dreams from various observers might lead to a kind of
“cartography” of several planets, which might further facilitate
communication, for more and more people.
Here are four major forms of observing dreams:
1. Try to learn, from the context, if the dreamgiver is on a primigene
planet or a regenerate (“afterlife”) planet.
2. Observe if you find valid reasons for some mind contents proper to
you, the dreamer, entering the dreamgiver’s mind during the dream. This
is a ver delicate kind of observation, for you are he and he is you. If
this is the case, you may even try to help the dreamgiver, if he is in
a troublesome situation.
3. Astronomical dreams, from people either having good or just
elementary knowledge about the stellar system, could help us in
localizing in space in the planets we communicate with most frequently,
at least if there are some nearby solar systems involved.
4. In your waking hours, maybe you are sometimes a dreamgiver yourself.
This would be difficult to discover, but is nevertheless worth
remembering this possibility.
For many years scientists, historians and philosophers have believed
that the origins of metaphysics rests in the world(s) of dreams. Even
though they were intending them to be something imaginary their
overall conclusion was exactly right. The lore of our gods and
goddesses comes from a saga that represents events that actually
occurred in the divine realm, but is retold here using ancient forms of
interpretation and poetic imagery. The skalds were certainly inspired
by dreams, visions, materializations, and even possibly actual
visitations by deities such as Rig-Heimdall. When you believe that such
things are possible your mind becomes susceptible to the other
bioradiations and you will experience such phenomena. When people
believe that they will see a U.F.O. they give themselves the mental
state that does not oppose other life in the universe and so
unconsciously they support an advancing field, thereby boosting the
biodynamic process.
