Any Good Dreams Lately?

In the Silva training program, you are taught how to trigger a dream. It’s called the Glass of Water technique. Over the forty years that I have been using it, I have had some excellent results.

Example: Several months ago, I needed a handyman to cut down some of the dead tree branches and do a general cleanup on the four acres where I live. I placed an ad in the local paper for help. I had three responses. They all came out to bid on the job. They all quoted almost the same figure for their services. As I interviewed them, I found them to be honest people, and they all had references. NOW… which one should I choose to do the job? That night, I asked for a dream to help me choose which one to hire. I wanted to remember the dream, and I wanted to understand the dream.

The next morning, after drinking the remainder of the water at my bedside, my mind drew a blank. After I got up, turned on the coffee maker, and was in the bathroom washing my face and combing my hair, I was startled because in the mirror was the face of the third man that I had interviewed. He was short in stature, with a pleasant, genuine smile. When we talked the day before, he was shy, serious, and didn’t make eye contact. “I’ll do a good job; I need the work,” he seemed to be pleading. I hired him that morning. And what a find; his wife, too, was looking for a job to clean houses. I hired her after we talked on the phone. She came out the next day and was, as the phrase goes, ‘a God send’. At last I got all the work done around here.

Lately, I have used my dream state for something different. When I go to bed and am not sleepy, I ask that I be taken to an interesting place where I can experience something – a place that I am not consciously aware of. It’s opened a window to places that, even I, with all the research I’ve done, amazes me.

Example: Last night, I asked, “Take me to a place where I have never been before and let me remember it when I wake up. EUREKA! It is a place that is so different, and I awoke wanting to know more. The scene was a room with an old woman sitting at the table reading from a book. When I entered the room, she looked up, smiled, and said that she had been waiting for me. “I have a treat for you, a cookie that is not from your dimension,” she explained. “Come have tea with me,” she invited. I sat down, and she poured a cup of tea that smelled and tasted like Jasmine.
She handed me a cookie. Actually, it looked more like a muffin. I took a bite, expecting it to have a marshmallow center, but it was golden foam that melted in my mouth. It was like something that I had never tasted before.

“Can I have the recipe,” I asked as I was munching on it. She smiled and said, “The ingredients are not in your dimension, but I will tell you that it has a number of vitamins and minerals that your body is lacking. You will feel energized and physically balanced in the morning.” Suddenly, she stood up, glided across the floor, and handed me a patch quilt with the most unique squares of material. I examined it closer, trying to figure out the patterns that were on the material. “Each stitch has been programmed to heal the person that uses it to keep warm,” she explained. “What a fantastic idea,” I said. “You are overlooking so many ways to make your physical existence more comfortable. I have a book filled with ideas that you should pass along. You are invited to come back, and I will continue to share the knowledge.”

The next thing that happened was that I awoke with the taste of Jasmine tea, and I couldn’t describe the taste of the cookie. I must go back to that place to obtain more wisdom and
knowledge and share it with you.

But you don’t need me. Do your own dreaming. I promise you it will offer you some insights that you have never consciously given thought to.
