All dream characters are part of ourselves, so at least the dream part of me recognizes that I have more than just my limited brain and senses to navigate. We are being guided in our path, right now, by Divine Intuition and Knowing, which is beyond logic and our senses.
Buddhist teacher Frank Ostaseki in The Five Invitations, writes "The transformation of consciousness, which is possible for each of us in our day-to-day lives requires our active engagement. We cannot think our way through it. It is not a strategic plan that we execute. Transformation requires an open-ended willingness to be fully vulnerable to the experience of the unknown."
