😳 WHY❓❓❓

Why we dream 🙄…?

The scientific study of dreams is called oneirology. Dreams mainly occur in the rapid-eye movement (REM) stage of sleep—when brain activity is high and resembles that of being awake. REM sleep is revealed by continuous movements of the eyes during sleep. … However, these dreams tend to be much less vivid or memorable.

Dreaming is a symbolic language designed to communicate your inner wisdom to you while you are asleep. The part of your subconscious that processes dreams — your dream self — sends messages as symbols and images, which in turn conveys ideas or situations in a visual language.

LEARN Sanskrit🙏🏻* 

मुंडे मुंडे मतिर्भिन्ना कुंडे कुंडे नवं पयः । 

There are as many human beings as there are thoughts; The taste of water from different wells inside the same village is different, different castes have different customs for the same rituals, and each person narrates the same event in his own way. . There is no need to wonder or feel bad about it. 

जितने मनुष्य हैं, उतने विचार हैं; एक ही गाँव के अंदर अलग-अलग कुऐं के पानी का स्वाद अलग-अलग होता है, एक ही संस्कार के लिए अलग-अलग जातियों में अलग-अलग रिवाज होता है तथा एक ही घटना का बयान हर व्यक्ति अपने-अपने तरीके से करता है । इसमें आश्चर्य करने या बुरा मानने की जरूरत नहीं है ।
