Beautiful journey through the higher vital worlds under the psychic influence as the pure water and the smooth flow indicates.

I have been having a lot of dreams lately. One of it was about a fire 🔥, coming towards me while I am going in car to USA for my career. I try to dodge it, but it grows and I have to take a U-turn and return home and after reaching there, the fire stops. Other than this, I had multiple dreams of me in Pondicherry in and around ashram, or near samadhi. I although haven’t been able to physically visit Pondicherry yet. I am battling with the marital issues and in USA as of now. Please help me understand the dreams.

The dream is very clear. It is an objectivisation of your problems and the guidance being provided by your soul through your inner being. It

Am I thinking too much I have inate fears of things and dying and ghosts and pain and overthink a lot about all this When dreams like this come, I get scared a lot😱

There is nothing to be scared of. Possibly the dream itself is a fear of losing things given by parents or grandparents. But I am

I want to know the meaning of a dream that I saw . In that dream I was climbing a mountain but there was a huge pit which was like a dark abyss. I had to cross that large pit and then climb the stairs to move forward. After seeing that huge pit i got scared to cross that so i chose another route that had easy stairs to climb the mountain⛰️. Mother and Sri Aurobindo writes a lot of thing about this abyss . Kindly explain some of their writing on this subject.

The pit is the abyss of doubts and fears that makes us feel that the difficulty in reaching the Divine is insurmountable. But the Mother

I had a dream in which I saw myself telling my wife that I will get married twice. She then pointed towards the window in the room, and there were two lines written on the glass. I don’t remember the upper one, but the lower one read: ‘Kabir, Dadu Dayal, had one wife.’ Do the lines seen in the dream have any meaning, and what is the meaning of this dream😐?

This kind of writing is definitely significant. It is an indication not to have a second marriage if ever such a suggestion …

The first dream indicates your coming in contact with the Mother through the mediation of devotees. The second dream indicates that the Mother is watching

Last night, I had a dream where I saw that my father and I were getting a tubewell installed, and at the end, when we inserted the pipe, a lot of water came out and it was sparkling. Then, Grandpa came and asked why we had the tubewell installed, saying that the water is salty. When we drank it, the taste was a bit salty, so I said at least the water would be useful. Later, I saw that my brother and I were checking the car’s headlight, but it didn’t light up. So, I said, doesn’t the light work? What’s the problem? He said it’s fine, and when I turned it on, the light was very dim. Then, we removed the mirror from the headlight and saw that it was giving off very little light. What could be the symbolic meaning of this dream🤔?

I don’t think it has any deeper symbolic meaning. Looks more like a dip into the subconscient where the water is not tasty and the

One night, I had a dream where some people were shooting at me, and the bullets were hitting me. I was crying a lot😭. Then a friend came, and I told him to take me to the hospital, but he was wasting time on the way. I was shouting to take me quickly. Then I called out to my Guru, asking him to take me into his refuge. From above, a voice came with his picture, saying that this is not the path of liberation but the path of transformation. Then my friend, while wasting time, took me to the hospital. The doctor said that there was no blood, only marks. Please explain this dream.

It means that though you were being attacked by the adverse forces trying to instill fear. Sri Aurobindo told you not to be afraid as

Today I had a dream that there were two cows, one brown and one white, which were eating plants at my uncle’s house. I saw this from my house and was going to drive them out. Just then, my other uncle’s son came and said it was very dangerous as they had harmed our grandmother when she tried to get them out. I suggested that we both try together. So, we went towards them and saw that the white cow transformed into a very bright and large man who was very tall and heavy. I told my uncle’s son to hit it on the head, but he couldn’t. He started to hit it, and when the man saw me, I had something in my hand, and I hit him with it. He started chasing me, and I ran away from there. What does this dream signify🤔?

Cows are always good. They are forces of light, the white is some aspect of Her Light while the grey is Light mixed with the

I had a dream of which I can’t fully understand the message. I dreamt I’m in my room which is well lit but due to some work going on there are some boxes piled up on my bed. The floors are bare and the room is bare. I think that I will have to sleep in my mother’s room in that case. I enter my mother’s room and see that it is semi dark. I can see the bed but it’s not a well lit room. I tell my mother I have to sleep in her room. Somehow a light catches my eye and falls on something above the bed. I can’t tell at first what it is but with more light it illuminates an alligator in silhouette above the bed. So the alligator is dark and I can’t see any details and it seems to be waiting for me. At this point I wake up🤨

The new well lit room are portions of your being touched by the higher Light. It is however yet to be organised for you to

I had a dream. I was in a weird tunnel of whitish light like a river 🌊and was underground in sort of a tunnel but I was not human but a ray of smth and I couldn’t be distinguished from the flow of that whitish river and there was another person in the form of me with me swimming ahead of me and I could communicate with the man without talking and I was going or more like swimming through that light and then a ball of light comes through an Opening from above the tunnel and turns into lady who is warning about the dangers ahead and that there will be rain of fire from all sides but I look at the man in front of me and go undettered swimming. That lady keeps the warning and stays there while I move ahead

Very interesting dream. The stream of white light and the ‘you’ which is a ray is your soul entering through a subconscient passage drawn by

Last night, I had another dream in which I saw some people attacking my girlfriend and trying to kill her. When she became weak and someone stepped forward to kill her, someone else intervened and killed all those negative people. However, my girlfriend was badly hurt. I was taking her away, and she was telling me that she was going to die. I was reassuring her that nothing would happen to her and that she would be fine. Then I saw a trolley full of sweets, and she was saying that she had died. But I was supporting her and telling her that everything was fine. Then she asked for water, and the dream ended. Can you please explain this dream🫨?

The girlfriend is some part or energy of Nature that you are most identified with. It is being attacked by certain adverse formations but in

First Dream: In the first dream, I am in a village, and a tiger appears, attacking people😫. Everyone runs away to escape the tiger. While running, we hide near the water tank’s outlet. Some people hide elsewhere. Then I look back and see a locked house and an empty temple nearby with no idol but with items for worship. I suggest to everyone that we should go into the house to be safe from the tiger. As soon as we enter the temple, instead of the tiger, a woman’s spirit (a witch) appears, flying in the air and killing everyone with her nails. We go inside the temple, but the witch follows us because there is no idol. I say we need to place an idol of Lord Ganesh there and perform the ritual. We leave the temple, find an idol, perform the ritual, and then the witch cannot enter the temple. But she stays outside, attacking those who remain there. The entire village comes to the temple for safety. I tell everyone to apply vermillion (sindoor) on their bodies, so the witch will not harm them. We should hide in the nearby house and sprinkle vermillion outside, so the witch cannot enter. Some of us will go and kill her. Can you please explain this?

The first dream indicates being chased by adverse vital forces which are probably moving around in the village environment. The solution is to grow in
