The Reality of Dreams: Exploring Unconscious States
Every night in my dreams, I sometimes feel like I'm not in reality and that everything is under my control. Is this common? Surprisingly, the answer is yes. There is a part of you that always knows, and it's precisely why you finally start to remember your dreams.
A Natural Part of Sleep
It is natural to dream and you have always dreamed, you just didn't remember them. This might be because before, you were a heavy sleeper similar to a child, and something has happened to allow you to sleep less deeply. Dreaming occurs in a close-to-waking state, and dreams serve to keep us asleep. They can feel real but, rest assured, you always know when you are awake. Do you feel like you are dreaming as you read this? I am real; you are real, and our joint experience is real. Welcome to the real world.
Scientific Insights into Dreams
Science has conducted extensive studies on dreams. The conclusion drawn by scientists is that dreams have no relation to our reality. You are the creator of the dream. We do not receive or transmit anything while we are asleep. It might be beneficial to stop overthinking your dreams and letting them fade away, as is the common practice for most people.
Understanding Parasomnias
Your experiences may also indicate parasomnias. Parasomnias are sleep disorders that cause abnormal behavior while sleeping. These behaviors can occur during any stage of sleep, including the transition from wakefulness to sleep and vice versa. If you experience parasomnias, you might move around, talk, or do unusual things during sleep. These conditions can be disruptive sleep disorders and can result in undesirable physical or verbal behaviors, such as walking or talking during sleep.
Common Causes of Waking During the Night
There are several reasons why you might wake up once or twice during the night. These causes can include consumption of caffeine or alcohol later in the day, a poor sleep environment, a sleep disorder, or an underlying health condition. If you find it difficult to get back to sleep quickly, you might not get enough quality sleep to keep you refreshed and healthy. The findings in this area have been published in the journal Sleep, highlighting the importance of addressing these issues for better health and well-being.
Counterfeit Spirits and Spiritual Peace
Sometimes, the experiences you describe might be related to spiritual phenomena like the kundalini spirit, which can be considered a counterfeit to the Holy Spirit. When God lives in our hearts, we experience peace, and the Holy Spirit grants us this peace. It is important not to engage with counterfeit spirits and instead, seek the truth and comfort through God's Word and Spirit.
