I wrote this on another UB BBS. I am transferring it here for review and possibly stimulating and provoking thought.
The power of autosuggestion and the human mind…
Last night I fell asleep with the radio playing, still; the discussion on the radio program at the time was the adaptation of polar bears –their white fur and black skin– to the snowy environment. When my sleep initiated, a dream voice explains how Pallbearers are black underneath their sleeves. Then I woke up.
It is quite remarkable how the mind, in its deep recesses, will associate words passing to the eardrum, based on phonetics: in the dream, my mind adjusted the pronunciation polar bears for Pallbearers.
What did I learn from this dream? For starters, be alert and on guard against what flows into the mind while asleep, literally and figuratively, as those ideas cannot be filtered, readily, with an arrested conscious. Interestingly, there is a degree of truth, within the context of symbology, that blackness represents death; hence, the black skin under the sleeve.
I sometimes wonder how words, words put together to form sentences, and sentences forming paragraphs and books are treated by premind, mind and supermind. Do grammar rules and syntax change from mind to mind?
