Whirling Dervish?
« on: October 27, 2013, 01:00:56 AM »
I see myself dressed in a long white dress spinning in a blur in a white room.  I feel pretty calm in and about the dream.

Chris – While practising LifeStream I often found myself spinning spontaneously till I fell over. It was a way to get rid of the intellect and thinking mind so the non-rational unconscious had more room to breathe. Jalaluddin Rumi used it for the same purpose. Dreams arise from the non-rational self and cannot properly be understood by thinking about them. So you are going the way of the mystics into the great mystery.

Thank you Tony!  Can you reply with more information about Life Stream?  I remember you referencing it previously, but I have not researched it yet.
