    The Human has a Big Problem with the Interpretation errors and a big Problem with many Projection errors and a Super Big Problem with to many Transfer errors ,and that and more makes a Big Problem with a Mass Psychosis Visible. The Human belive it to Quickly that Hus own Person no Problem with the Reality or with the Mass Psychosis Visible makes. The Human makes in the most Times a very worse work with his Analysis Visible. The Human has a Super Big Problem and that makes the Crowd Around the World ,with his Messages ,very Quickly Visilble ,but that can't the Affected People see.

Mit den Träumen ,da Messen wir uns durch die Welt oder das Leben und dass was man als das es Bezeichnen kann. Das es zeigt also eine Bewegung an oder viele ,und davon sind wir nur ein Kleiner Teil . Es macht viel mehr Sinn ,viel mehr Perspektiven heran zu ziehen um den Wert oder um die Bedeutung ,der Träume ,besser Kentlich zu machen. Sei vorsichtig ,denn die Menschen sind wie in einem Delirium ,sie merken es aber alle nicht ,wie schlecht sie ,mit der Umwelt Arbeiten. Die eigenen Fehler zu sehen ,dass ist gar nicht so einfach ,wenn man es nicht sehen kann ,wo ein Möglicher Ausweg sichtbar ist. Die Träume führen auch zu vielen Täuschungen und zu vielen Illusionen. Mit der Interpretation hat der Mensch sehr viele Probleme ,die hier die meisten Menschen ,nicht sehen. Wohlmöglich bekommst du dass irgendwie Übersetzt und dann verstehst du es vieleicht ,wie viele Fehler sich ,mit dem Thema zeigen.

    Doris Lessing channeled both the deep past innocence and the present degeration of humankind in her Shikasta series. Her literary brilliance was masterfully applied to deep dives into the collective unconscious, which gave her lucid dreams of how humans evolved the validity of cosmic truth.

    There is much in the subconscious of what we want, and also of what we don''t want, if one is prone to cancelling parts of self one thinks one should not want, then the unveiling of subconscious can be more difficult. The subconscious is always available, allow for it, and be wary of shutting it off by censoring the flow

    I've been using the dream technique Doris described for many years, so I know it works. It was in my dream that I was told I was to make films, and now I'm an award-winning filmmaker. It was in my dreams I shown that I would receive two offers on my house and which one to accept. Before my fur-baby transitioned, I had two dreams about him getting into a white truck and van with other dogs coming to great him. I told my best friend about the dreams and she said that a "white" vehicle is a symbol of a coffin. Therefore, I knew I was having a premonition about his death. He was so happy in the dreams and running with other dogs. He didn't play with dogs in his living life, but he did across the rainbow bridge. I was so happy for him. I love the wisdom and healing power of dreams.

    My sort of natural follow up question to this is where else do you think your ideas come from if not from the sub-conscious? Aren't all ideas formed "awake" also just "appearing"? Wakeful thinking is focused awareness on a problem as well, and the solution finds itself after enough sustained attention.

    You are a Nobel Laureate but still you not understood what dreams are. They are not only the projections of mind but also far deeper meaning. some dreams are not thoughts. they are either the soul experiencing a multiverse or some past life. some say they are astral in nature. all I am saying a string is attached to your soul when it travels to other planes. one day I was very angry with God and asked God am I being used by you that you keep throwing me into such parallel Universe. Then I got a complete answer it was a flat no. also, I have started to sense dark elements that might influence your dreams. you can see how dark many who rule us have become. they are literally demonic. these demonic rulers will destroy our civilization. this void is not empty it is full of dark souls that will never go to the light. this earth is only place they can have power. you may think I am literally insane. if you ever connect with the light, you will know it all. i believe this is how aliens think, they don't use heavy math to prove things they just see it.

Whether one is protected/secure or of unfortunate circumstances, the greatest thing that can happen to them I believe is the realisation that they needn't be victims of the happenings of their own lives.

    Very cool theory, Indeed. However, its not that exact visual representation that comes on & off, rather it’s different brain to brain. Also time is a important matter & also is the dots (indications). And mostly, its a heavy weight dream that requires huge amount of energy on mind that also requires some balanced sleep & very correct information. She is indeed very correct about explaining her thoughts🫶
