From the moment we slip into sleep, our soul moves away from our physical body and goes to join the universal soul

Makes sense to me.

Interesting when I dream I just go back to childhood most of the time meeting people I played with in the Barrio or meeting cousins and family I haven't seen in years, weird...

Strange, all I ever dream about is some twat shouting: "Well ya stinkin drunkin bastard, why don't ya ever clear up?"

And all I can think of in my dreams is: "why don't ya just FUUUUUUUUUCK OF?"

All kidding aside... The OP has a interesting point.
Any further discussion?

I have always smoked a lot, but never in my dreams. What does something like that tell us?

That youre a fuckin creep?

No, for fuck sake. It just so happens that all the heavy smokers I have ever talked to have never smoked in their dreams, ya fuckin bastard

Ok. I was getting worried that's all... ya creep.

No problem, ya creepy bastard.

Could very well be. It's why we sometimes wake up with a jerking of our bodies. The soul has no body, and isn't restricted to stay with that mass. This means the bed, the floor, the ceiling, etc doesn't keep it from going through. When we're traveling from wake to sleep, I think sometimes the brain senses the movement right when we're about to go to sleep, (the transition) and sends a quick and abrupt panic signal to the body. Many have observed it, and some say it's why we call it "falling" asleep.

"At night, as you go to sleep, deliver yourself into the Lord’s hands, and say, ‘My God, I want to do your will. Do with me as you wish.’ And the next day check your thoughts, feelings and actions to see whether what you are doing really is the will of God and not the will of your lower nature. For it is not enough to say verbally that you give everything to God in the evening and then to give in to all your whims the following day.

We came to the earth to participate in the work of creation. Jesus said, ‘My Father is still working, and I also am working.’ This work with God, for God, is the final word of initiation. Everything we give to God we raise to the level where he himself is. Then God repeats our gesture; he reflects it like a mirror reflecting a ray of light: we have given him everything, and he gives us everything."

OP you often post very enlightening quotes. Often you get very little response. I do enjoy your posts. Thanks!

So how heavy are these smokers?

It's not about that or even about smokers, ya fuck, it's about what we surprisingly never dream about doing.

So what are all you other fuck ups surprised about never doing in your dreams?

"What we call life is in reality an alternation of life and death. Yes, when we wake up in the morning, we are born on the physical plane, but we die on the astral plane. When we go to sleep at night, we die on the physical plane, but are born on the astral plane. In the same way, when a human being comes to earth, he is born here, but he dies in the other world: he is received here with cries of joy and music, but on the other side they attend his burial. Conversely, when a man dies here, he is accompanied to his grave by funeral marches, tears, and mourning clothes, while on the other side he is welcomed joyfully, and those who receive him exclaim: 'At last, he has returned!' Obviously, the person who has led the life of a criminal on earth does not receive such a warm welcome there. In the same way, it sometimes happens that certain children are not happily welcomed here by their parents. But these are special cases. The law itself remains implacable: what is life in one realm is death in another. What disappears here, appears elsewhere, and vice-versa."

"When you go to sleep, a change takes place in your consciousness, and yet this sleep is only an extension of your day’s activities and preoccupations in a different form.

If you make efforts during the day to leave your prosaic, egocentric thoughts and feelings behind and rise to a more elevated, vaster plane, you will find favourable conditions for continuing this work in your sleep. When you go to sleep, your soul does not hover around your body but goes travelling through space to discover other worlds and their inhabitants. And when you awaken, even if you cannot recall everything you have seen and heard, these journeys leave profound traces in you which gradually transform your understanding."

Hey OP,

When you become a Skilled Hermetist you will be able to put your Spiritual Alchemy into Practical Application.

The 12 stages of the magnus opus you learned are actual procedures you are meant to carry out to create the Stone.

Thank you

Even someone like Jesus?

thanks for the writings!

He was a criminal according to Jewish and Roman law.

The Romans must have had some reason or another for writing "INRI", right?

Then let me sleep through the next 4 years.

Same Lie told over and over again.

Wednesday morning at five o'clock
As the day begins
Silently closing her bedroom door
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more

She goes downstairs to the kitchen
clutching her handkerchief
Quietly turning the back door key
Stepping outside she is free

She
(We gave her most of our lives)
Is leaving
(Sacrificed most of our lives)
Home
(We gave her everything money could buy)
She's leaving home after living alone for
(Bye bye)
So many years

Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
Picks up the letter that's lying there
Standing alone at the top of the stairs

She breaks down and cries to her husband
Daddy our baby's gone
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?
How could she do this to me?

She
(We never thought of ourselves)
Is leaving
(Never a thought for ourselves)
Home
(We struggled hard all our lives to get by)
She's leaving home after living alone for
(Bye bye)
So many years

Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
Meeting a man from the motor trade

She
(What did we do that was wrong?)
Is having
(We didn't know it was wrong)
Fun
(Fun is the one thing that money can't buy)
Something inside that was always denied for
(Bye bye)
So many years

She's leaving home
(Bye bye)

What. The. Fuck... Are you arguing with yourself?
