There is a very important aspect of our lives that occupies a great portion of our time.
And they are our dreams.
The act of going to sleep at night.
About a third of our life is through dreams.
This experience that is our dreams.
And we're going to refer to this experience in a natural way.
What is the natural purpose of the Creator in our life through our dreams?
Our being is designed to restore itself by itself.
And for our being to be restored,
It first goes through a cleansing.
Our being,
Our body,
Always releases what it doesn't need.
That's why we go to the bathroom,
We sweat,
Sometimes we cry,
And through our tears we cleanse emotions.
In the same way,
Our body is releasing,
Is taking out what it doesn't need.
We're not saying that it's bad.
Simply that we don't need it anymore.
Because everything that happens within us is there with a purpose.
And also our being,
Through our dreams,
Goes through a process of cleansing emotions,
Sensations,
Things that have accumulated in our being through time.
And that's why many ancient civilizations like the Toltecs and Olmecs,
The Mayans,
Ancestral ancient civilizations,
They learned to pay a lot of attention to observing their dreams and to recognize a natural purpose in this experience.
And they learned to enter consciously in their dreams.
In order to enter consciously in our dreams,
There is a practice that is very ancient.
And it is the act of observing our breath before we fall asleep.
And if it's difficult or challenging for us to focus on our breath,
We can focus on the sounds of nature,
Or the rain,
Or listen to soothing music.
In order to make silence in our mind.
And to turn this into a habit.
Every night.
Before we fall asleep.
We focus on something that silences,
That calms our mind.
And there is the first powerful purpose for our life.
The act of quieting the mind.
Gives us a lot of energy.
Because in life everything functions with energy.
And when we quiet our mind,
We stop making an interference before the natural process of restoration of our being.
Because our whole being knows how to put everything in order by itself.
But we have so much interference through our thinking that we delay that process,
That natural process of healing.
And so to quiet our minds is the first contribution that we make to aid our process of healing,
Of restoration,
Of expansion of consciousness.
And then when we fall asleep,
After we quiet our mind,
It's possible that we enter consciously in our dreams.
And so within the dream,
We become aware that we are dreaming.
We become spectators of that experience that we have as we sleep.
And this act of being conscious within our dreams gives us energy.
And that is what our ancestors were seeking through their dreams.
To gain and gather a lot of energy towards this vessel that is our body.
When we have a lot of energy,
We experience a lot of well-being.
We move through our days in our daily life and we don't know why we feel so good,
So much well-being and happiness.
And so it's very important to be able to remember our dreams.
It doesn't matter if they are pleasant or unpleasant dreams.
What it's about is simply to remember them.
That act of remembering them is the one that gives us energy.
There may even be occasions where we have lucid dreams,
But they are dense.
They are like nightmares.
An elder would always say,
If you have a nightmare,
Get happy.
Porque es algo que está saliendo.
Because it is something that is coming out.
Cuando soñamos con densidades,
Con persecuciones,
Son miedos que están acumulados y están saliendo a través de los sueños.
When we dream with density or chasing or intense dreams,
These are fears that are coming out and because they're coming out we can see them.
And here comes the magical key for our dreams.
The golden rule of our ancestors is to not interpret your dreams.
Our elders would say that when we interpret our dreams,
We open a very huge window to uncertainty.
And so we drain our energy.
And that's why it's very important to simply let them flow,
Let them go,
Let them pass through.
And this also applies to our daily life.
Sometimes in our daily life,
We also have sensations of fear or sadness.
They are simply emotions that are coming out.
And we are experiencing a cleansing.
Because something needs to fall into place to be placed in order in our life.
The elders say that when Spirit wants to reveal something to us,
It doesn't need to be interpreted.
Because when a revelation comes directly from Spirit,
It comes with all of the clarity.
And we identify a revelation from Spirit because we feel peace,
We feel well-being.
If we dream with a tragedy,
It doesn't mean that something bad is going to happen.
It is simply showing us that there is something within us that is deeply inside,
That we carry it,
Hold it,
That has been draining our energy.
And that's why it comes out through our dreams.
So we let it go.
We don't trap it.
We simply observe it,
But we let it go.
It's like when we release something from our body.
I don't have to stay there looking at,
Looking through what came out.
I simply know that I don't need it.
In this way we learn to save our energy,
To take care of our energy,
And to hold the energy that is naturally being produced within us.
We take care of that energy.
When we begin to interpret,
To make sense of a dream,
A nightmare,
Something dense,
We are simply draining our energy.
And in life,
Everything functions with energy.
Everything.
When I don't have energy.
In my life,
I experience a stagnation.
I become trapped in the same cycles,
Repeating the same experiences.
And our elders say that it's very important to place humility first.
So that any experience that I have through my dreams or through my daily life,
I can humbly put it in the hands of a greater power.
And Spirit in its infinite love knows where to place that experience.
Knows what to do with that.
We simply take charge of living one day at a time,
Thinking beautifully.
Enjoying life.
And in this way,
Our being starts to transform into a great container of energy.
And when I am very good with my energy,
When I have a good amount of energy,
I begin to experience how everything starts to fall into place by itself.
My relationships flow.
My economy flows.
And I begin to feel peace,
Happiness,
Well-being.
I begin to become full of trust.
But everything is thanks to the energy that I am saving.
I am no longer draining my energy.
And so we are always praying and wishing for everyone to be able to make peace with all of the experiences that we have in our life.
And may we remember what is the nature of our being.
May we remember and recognize that our being is always cleansing,
Releasing what it doesn't need anymore.
Through our body,
And also through our dreams,
It is cleansing and releasing emotions and psychological aspects that don't let us be well in our life.
Lighter and more fluid through our life.
This is a wonderful practice to observe our dreams,
To quiet our minds before we fall asleep.
And we simply maintain the intention to do so every night.
And with time,
We will see ourselves observing our thoughts,
Observing our emotions.
And we will be able to direct them in the manner in which we give them to the creator of life.
And this is how we empower ourselves.
