DREAMS AND FANTASIES

We dream for the simple fact that we function like the Universe itself, and it couldn't be different, after all, we are made of the Universe.

We dream because the consciousness, which is the Universe itself, experiences being in different levels or layers of reality, because we exist simultaneously in dimensions that our body cannot reach, but since one of these dimensions is that of the physical body, what we dream becomes the claim to bring dreams closer to concrete reality, to be experienced through the use of all the senses, objective and subjective.

It is true, however, that we always dream much more than we manage to achieve, and it even happens that we are enchanted by dreams that are not dreams, but the product of fantasies to which we are attached, but which reveal what they are when we bring them closer to physical experience and we are disappointed with them, because they bring us suffering and cause us to produce suffering in the people with whom we relate.

But it is no less true that when we bring real dreams closer to physical experience, the joy produced is unmistakable, it wells up from the bottom of the heart and produces ardor and shivers that no other experience can even come close to.
