RELIGIOUS DREAMS & TESTS
5-17-87 - DREAM - I was digging two graves on the side of a cliff about 10 feet up above a beach. One was for a woman I cared about and one was for me.
A woman was on the rocks by the ocean about 50 feet from me. She was crying and said that we would be gone forever.
I dropped the shovel and started running toward her. I grabbed her by the shoulders and yelled loudly in her face with great emotion, "That's just it! You are eternal and always have been! You live forever! Just remember that the loves ones that you grieve about still live and you will see them again when you meed in Paradise!"

6-24-89 - Meditation: I went to the 12th level to find out the end date of the Silver Energy Ray. First, I sensed I was surrounded by people. Then, I began to see people around me. I could only see them from the neck down, like their heads were in a heavy fog. They deliberately showed me their feet, so I would know I could trust them. All these people were men, it seemed. I senses a number 20 something. I was thinking it might be 29, but I was guessing because that what I was trying to confirm. All these people backed away from me then and formed a line and walked single file through a door into an auditorium. I followed them up to the door but I was reluctant to go in, so I stood in the doorway. The doorway had an exit sign over it. The auditorium seemed to be both an inside room and an outside room. I sensed both, but I could see bushes or potted plants farther away. The auditorium was full of people all facing one direction. They may have been sitting on chairs but I wasn't sure because of the foggy nature of the scene. There were both men and women there. In front of the people was a group of men numbering seven sitting cross legged but not lotus style on a low platform facing the people. Then, all the women got up and began to file out past me. They went through a hall where I was, which looked like my front lobby vaguely and they filed outside single file. They all turned to look at me and smiled and waved as they went out the door. I stayed in the hallway.

7-28-89 - Dream: I was in an auto on National Ave. I was worried that I was going too slow, then concerned I was going too fast and would get a ticket. I stopped at an auto repair shop on National Ave. I watched a fat woman (This was Teri Hofmann, my spiritual teachers, spiritual teacher ) - swearing and kicking at her motorcycle because it wouldn't go anymore and couldn't be repaired. I was having trouble with mine because I didn't know how to start it. It didn't have a comfortable seat either. The owner came over and gave me a lesson and I repositioned the bike at the top of the hill so it could take off evenly balanced and not have to go up hill from a dead stop. He told me to point my right toe firmly straight and to point my left foot right to go right and to point it left to go left, because it would give me more speed and power.

Around 1991 I had a dream of a bottling machine that was out of control. The glass bottles were breaking all over. The operators were frantic and did not know what to do. I looked at the control panel and saw a selector switch on the side, labeled "Parent Switch." Suddenly, a voice said, "They shouted at their parents in a Tabernacle Factory!"
I had heard of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, but I did not know the meaning of the word. The dictionary said it was a portable tent used by the Hebrews in their wanderings from Egypt to Palestine. The other meaning given was - "The human body as the dwelling place of the soul." ~~~~~~~~~~~~

10-2-93 - DREAM - I was renting out apartments and came to put the final touches on one. The walls were to be painted two tone...pink and yellow with a thin stripe of white between them. I put one item of housekeeping equipment in each closet as a free gift for the new tenant. I then opened the closet in the bedroom which was going to be for a little girl. I realized that I was in my 16th St. house and this was the room I had spent my own childhood in.
T.M. came in to do some rewiring in the apartment. I discovered that he person who had moved out hadn't removed any of the closet contents. It would be my job to sort it all out and dump it.
I started with the books. On one shelf were all children's books, "The Bobbsey Twins" and other child's books. I decided to leave those in place as a gift to the new little girl.
I pulled out a lot of men's things. I saw some envelopes that were pre-addressed. I cannot remember the name. It was Russian or foreign I didn't recognize. I kept the 1993 diaries which were nearly empty and a ledger of finance that was so lightly and sparsely written, I thought I could use it by writing in darker pen over the man's writing. There were some boy's toys like long steel carrier that was empty that I removed and all the rest of the men's and boy's things.
When the shelves were empty I saw that if I walked to the back of the closet, I was out in the country on a farm. It was harvest time and the mountains were on the horizon. I said to myself, "If the little girl uses her imagination, all this could be hers."
I went back to the closet proper. There was one last book way up in the air on a shelf of its own. On the shelf in a wire basket was a book titled, "DIAMONDS IN THE BIBLE".
I had to reach and stretch as far as I could to bring that book down as I knew it was the best treasure of the closet and I wanted it. At my highest reach, I finally managed to get my hans on the book and as I did, a woman began speaking and at the same time I saw quotations come down printed like a 'crawl' on a TV screen. They were rules of conduct for people. They were not the 10 Commandments but still on that order about things people shouldn't do towards each other.
I came out of the closet with the book and looked at the clock. It was 6:30 a.m. I knew I had to get home and go to work. I looked at the man's desk and saw that he had worked for Allis-Chalmers when t was merged with another company and was located in the city on the south side (Not 70th St.)
Two huge men who worked at A-C came in. The were both about 8 feet tall. They did maintenance and clean up. I was used to seeing them around but didn't work with them. The one in bib overalls came over to me, put his arm around my shoulder and hugged me. He said, "I see you've dyed your hair white." I grinned and said, "Yes! I did." knowing that the color was more natural than dyed.
I then left to go home and woke up.

c8-19-99 - DREAM - I headed for home which was a tall church on top of a high hill.
When I entered the building, my son Bill was polishing the wooden pews just as fast as he could. It was beautiful. He had started at the back, working his way forward. He hadn't done the area around the altar yet, so I told him I would do that part. The polish was in a little gold round container and was golden brown.
I found an old kitchen towel to use for a rag and began to work.
There was another area which needed polishing and it was very difficult to do.There was a narrow board that separated the walls from the ceiling and someone had painted it white. All the doors and woodwork were painted white as well. But, we wanted them all to be golden brown like the pews and the altar area. The strip by the ceiling had been made so narrow by my Father that it was difficult to polish without getting polish on the white ceiling, but we managed to wipe the brown polish off of the white ceiling tiles and made it look respectable.
There was a woman there with a sore in her eye. It looked like a bad sty but it was actually on her eyeball. I told her she needed to put medicine on it. She showed me that she had. She had gauze webbing on the sore place in her eye.
So, she went to the pharmacy and brought back a bag of tropical fish and white worms which we put into a big fish tank. The worms ate the virus and then the fish ate the worms and the virus would be gone.
The tropical fish were beautiful. She said she had picked out the prettiest ones. They grew very fast.
All of a sudden, I saw a huge rainbow trout sucking on her daughter's eyeball. The fish was larger than her daughter's face so I brushed it away. I couldn't have the rainbow trout suck out her child's eyeball. The fish just swam away through the air.
Then we noticed that my Father or my son Bill had constructed a perpetual wood polisher and the gadget was shaped like a belt sander and all by itself it went around the room polishing the narrow strip between the ceiling and the walls. It was pretty cool to watch.
*****************
Dream Fragment 11/15 by Mary - I have gone in search of something. This is important to me, but I am a bit hesitant as well. What I am looking for isn't tangible. I am driven to the mountain by my parents. They look younger than they really are, but I seem so too. I seem to be in my early 20s. The car is loaded down with things, both inside and on the roof. There are bundles and suitcases, etc.
We are at a service area on a corner. There is a phone and store and gas available. We park at the corner of the building and I can see the mountain behind the building. They are trying to discourage me, but I tell them I really want to go. I have to. It's my only chance to do this.
Shift to myself standing with another woman. Her age is indeterminate. I trust her, but harbor doubts. She says I have to climb up this rickety scaffolding like thing, not disturb the wise man at the top cuz he is very cranky, but talk to him if I can. I must get over the scaffolding in order to get to the other side and climb the mountain.
This scaffolding is built of small sticks. They seem about two to three inches in diameter and have a dark bark still on them. It is built in two stories, and two parts, an L shape. The problem is that the sticks aren't put together well. It's like a stool I have at home, the cross bar is supposed to be in the recess on the leg but isn't so the stool is weak. It shifts under your weight. I start to climb and keep turning to look at the other woman who tells me to keep going it will be all right.
I get close to the joining of the two parts of the L after many attempts to support my weight at the center and failing. Here close to the bottom of the L (the outside portion) I am finally able to climb to the first layer. Now I have to get to the second, but there is no support at all for my feet. My sneakers keep slipping and the crossbar is hanging. I know if I step on it I will break the structure and already the old man at the top is beginning to look down at me and frown cuz I keep shaking the structure.
The old man is somewhat withered and weathered looking. He has long white hair and is missing some teeth. I can see that he is holding a book and appears to be reading from it as his lips keep moving. When he looks at me he appears quite annoyed. He is wearing a loin cloth in dingy white.
I keep trying and trying to get up to the next level, looking back for advice or hints from the bottom and am only told you can do this, but it won't be easy. Finally I realize that I must grip the edge of the next platform and pull myself up with my own upper body strength (I am not very strong in this area so I doubt very much I can do this.) I make many attempts, each time shaking the structure more and more and now the old man is muttering about why people won't leave him alone and keep disturbing him. Because I see how annoyed he is and am feeling guilty for being the cause I tell myself that I will make it this time. I grip and pull. It takes me a long time but I am finally able to begin to pull myself up on the platform , throw one hand to the other side of it and begin to pull a bit further. Now i realize that the platform isn't very wide as well as being quite precarious. I lay my head down and look at the old man and his book. Just laying part way across the platform and trying not to move much.
His book is large and old. I can see writing in another language. But the book has pages on one side and a recess on the other. In the recess are five stones with markings on them. They are wrapped in a parchment like paper that both hides the markings and shows the markings. I am fascinated and want to know about them. I begin to shift my body slowly and carefully toward him, still laying across the platform. The structure keeps shaking anyway. He has one finger on a page in the book, then moves his other hand to one of the stones which he picks up and begins to rub. He is muttering. I think I am on his left side, and this is the side with the stones. I ask him to forgive me and let him know that I didn't mean to disturb him. Then I ask something else, not sure if it is about the stones or the book or the stories themselves. He looks at me and says something that I finally understand, but I cannot remember it now.
I decide it is time to stand on the platform and begin to shift my weight. As I do I see two other people just climbing down the back side of the scaffolding- a man and a woman, young like myself. But my shifting shakes the whole structure and suddenly it begins to fall down. The two other people must be rushed to the hospital. Neither myself nor the old man is hurt, in fact I don't remember him falling. I think he is still up there.
More on the stones: The stones are of different sizes, three being larger and two smaller. They are all flat on both sides and have relatively smooth edges. They seem to be about a half to three quarters inches thick. The markings are on one side only and the other side seems a bit concave. They are roughly circular or oblong, but have their own character in the edges. One has a protrusion from the top toward the right side. Somehow they seem to fit perfectly into the book, though the book would appear to be larger than the sum of the stones laying in there. They do not appear to be precious or semiprecious stones. There is no crystalline sense. Just simple, solid stones. Something of the weight and size an adult might choose to skip across the water. I see brown in color, but I am unsure if this is the parchment or the stones.
Interestingly I put the scene with my parents and the car first as that makes the most sense. However, I think it belongs here, at the end. I remember going to look at the couple in the hospital and leaving a note that I am sorry they fell. There was definitely more to this dream. The five stones still have me fascinated. And that they were in a recess in the old book. It is one of the most vivid yet elusive memories I have of the dream. I know I saw more detail and wonder if I didn't touch either the book or stones. I could see the writing, but not understand it.
