Chapter 5
Shower of blessings of
God—First experience
on merging of
dream and reality – Realization of Vedanta
11) May 22, 1972.
Early morning I saw in a
dream that there was a heavy shower which continued for a long time. I woke up
for a moment and though that it was really raining outside and so I decided to
sleep again. After a while, when I woke up again saw with surprise that there
was no sign of rain outside. The dream was so vivid.
[(a) Here the shower
signifies the blessings of God which was showered upon the seer . (b) The seer experienced the merging of dream
and reality. This has a reference in Upanishads that both dream and reality are
identical.]
Realization as
per the book
‘Dharma-O-Anubhuti
12) 4th June, 1972, Sunday.
What was felt during my dream was realized after I
woke up. I felt that for the whole night God-the-Preceptor held my hand and
both roamed here and there.
[This realization was mentioned
by Sri Ramkrishna as, ‘God-the-Preceptor is as if a companion, holding the hand
of the devotee and roam’. This is also mentioned in the Bengali book’ Dharma-O-Anubhuti’
written by Diamond like this—God appears to the devotee as God-the-Preceptor
and roam with him holding hand (vide dream no 5) ]
Realization as
per the book
‘Dharma-O-Anubhuti’--
Dream and
Reality are identical – Realization of Vedanta
13) 12th June, 1972, Monday, Early morning dream: I
was dwelling on the top floor of a huge building .I was stepping down from the
top floor observing innumerable number of rooms, steps and lanes inside the House
which was beyond imagination. After stepping down for a while I felt that I
lost my track to get up. Suddenly I noticed that an unknown person standing
beside me, pointed out my way to the upstairs. I looked up and found that the
steps lead to my dwelling place in the top floor. I then returned to my own
room. Here the dream went off.
After a while, I again had a
dream and noticed a beautiful hilly town. People were seen walking on roads.
Suddenly a herd of cows was seen on the road. I stood on one side of the road
and surprisingly went on thinking that I was dreaming but everything seemed so
real! Then my dream went off.
[The revelation of the 1st
scene appeared thus : Large building signifies the huge capacity of the seer’s cerebrum.
Rooms are the brain cells, lanes signify channels from the root of spinal chord
to the cerebrum.
Loosing tracks means that
during upward movement of the life force towards the 7th plane of
the cerebrum sometimes gets out of the channel being diverted from the main
channel ‘Susumna’ nerve which is the main path towards Godhood within the body
. At this moment God as unknown person keeps the seer in the right track which
the seer experienced in this dream.
The 2nd scene
signifies that the seer had a realization of Vedanta where dream and reality
are described as identical. At the same time the seer experienced the same
realization as mentioned in the book ‘Dharma-O-Anubhuti’ No 881 : “ There is no
difference between dream and reality. The devotee who has got pure consciousness
realizes this”. (vide dream no 5 ]
