It does not seem to exist in various dimensions. It does in actuality so exist. If a dream object or event does so straddle what you call not only time but space, and if as I say dream objects and creations maintain some independence from the dreamer, then you must see that although the dreamer creates his dreams for his own purposes, selecting only those symbols which have meaning to him, he nevertheless projects them outward in a value fulfillment and psychic expansion.

At our next session I will continue with this, and continue into an interpretation of dreams as they affect the individual dreamer in the physical field, and connect them with the levels of the subconscious. However I wanted you to understand that the elements of the dream world, originating in energy, also continue in existence when the dreamer may have forgotten them; and that all energy or any energy, given or adopting any type of form, must then continue at least momentarily to adapt to the laws inherent therein.

For out of a seemingly endless number of possibilities, our individual dreamer actually discriminates with great care, choosing only those dream objects or symbols that have meaning to him; and those dream objects that can best serve his purposes. And even a simple dream that would seem to be concerned with trivial daily events is in reality concerned with much more.

Dreamer “A” for example may pick up telepathically a small but particular portion of a dream by dreamer “B”. Dreamer “A” need not necessarily have an emotional connection with dreamer “B”. However there will be at the very least an emotional connection between the event within dreamer “B’s” dream, that has strong meaning for dreamer “A”. [...] Not because he is necessarily connected with the dreamer, but because the experience will strike at him emotionally, and he will then attract the dream.

Definite electromagnetic actions will therefore occur between the two dreamers, and there may be a spilling over of data, or dream information, before the circuit is closed. [...]

[...] You realize that they also have an electromagnetic reality, so there is no difficulty in their transmission from one dreamer to another.

[...] They often appear to others in the dream condition, and they help dreamers in the manipulation of inner reality. They form images with which the dreamers can relate, images that can be used as bridges and then as gateways into kinds of consciousness more separated from your own.

[...] The dreamer may find himself then in a magnificent harem, or instead in a brilliantly illuminated field or sky. [...]

[...] Through the ages the Speakers have taught dreamers how to manipulate in these other environments. [...]

THE ANCIENT DREAMERS

Dictation, to begin: New chapter (four): “The Ancient Dreamers.”

[...] The need for language arose, however, as man became less a dreamer and more immersed in the specifics of space and time, for in the dream state his communications with his fellows and other species was instantaneous. [...]

(Pause at 8:43.) Their dreams would then be shared by the tribe in the morning, or at special meetings, when each dreamer would give a rendition of the dream or dreams that seemed to be involved. In the same way, other dreamers would simply check with the dreamers of other villages or tribes—perhaps a hundred or even more miles distant. Some such dreams were extremely direct, others were clothed in symbolism according to the style of the dreamer, but in any case the dream was understood to have a public significance as well as a private one.

[...] The various tribal members would have dreams in which the problem was considered, each dreamer tackling whatever aspect of the problem that best suited his or her abilities and personal intents. The dreamers would travel out-of-body in various directions to see the extent of drought conditions, and to ascertain the best direction for the tribe to take in any needed migration.

[...] The dreamer dreams and the dreamer within the dream dreams, and sometimes the dreamers are aware of each other. [...]

[...] Some people within the tribe specialized in such dreams, and again, dream content was and is directed by the individual intents, purposes and interests of the dreamer. [...] The person interested most in herbs and plant life would also find that nightly dreams mirrored that daytime preoccupation, so that nightly dream excursions might find the dreamer examining strange herbs in another location than the native one. [...]

[...] There is no craft that was not first conceived of by an individual dreamer, who later transferred it to the social world of activity.

[...] There is, at times, a dream within a dream where the dreamer dreams that he dreams. [...]

[...] The dreamer has, at his fingertips, a memory of his ‘previous’ dream experiences and carries within him the many inner purposes which are behind his dream actions. [...]

It is impossible to study dreams when an attempt is made to isolate the dreamer from his own personality, to treat dreams as if they were physical or mechanical. [...]

[...] It will in this case be seen as the dream’s basic form, but it will be used in the dream drama according to the makeup of the dreamer.

[...] The bull could come also to represent a person the dreamer considers bullheaded. [...]

Also, in a manner of speaking, you are yourselves the ancient dreamers who dreamed your world into being. You must understand that I am not saying that you are passive, fleeting dreamers, lost in some divine mind, but that you are the unique creative manifestations of a divine intelligence whose creativity is responsible for all realities, which are themselves endowed with creative abilities of their own, with the potential and desire for fulfillment—inheritors indeed of the divine processes themselves. [...]

[...] There is at times a dream within a dream, where the dreamer dreams that he dreams. [...]

The feeling of unreality is not felt when the dream experience is being participated in by the dreamer. [...]

[...] The dreamer is acquainted intimately, and has at his fingertips so to speak, a memory of his previous dream experiences, and carries within him the many inner individualistic purposes which are behind his dream actions.

It goes without saying that dream images certainly have form to the dreamer, even as physical objects have form. [...]

[...] The dreamer who dreams he was in Paris may well have been there.

[...] Another portion might come from a neighbor—but from the dreamer’s interpretation of the neighbor’s remark, that further brings home the dream message.”

Pretend that you have seven dreams at once and you the dreamer know that you are dreaming. Within each dream 100 earthly years may pass —but to you the dreamer no time has passed, and there is no time to pass, for you are free of the dimension in which time exists. [...]

[...] Your waking physical self is the dreamer, as far as your dreaming self is concerned: You are the dreamer it sends on its way. [...]

[...] The studies done on men and women dreamers are already prejudiced, however, both by the investigators and by the dreamers themselves. [...]

“Although the dreamer creates his dreams for his own purposes, selecting only those symbols which have meaning to him, he projects them outward in a value fulfillment and psychic expansion. [...] A contraction occurs as the dreamer is finished with the dream events, but energy cannot be taken back.”

[...] Therefore, when the dreamer contracts his multi-realistic objects backward, ending for himself the dream he has constructed, he ends it for himself only. [...]

“It is quite possible for a dreamer to visit other planetary systems, of the past, present, or future in your terms. [...]
