3 Causes of Dreams

3 Causes of Dreams

According to the Meng Lin Xuan Jie (《梦林玄解》) in the Ming dynasty 

Dreams come from 3 origins:

1. Physiological causes:, "overeating leads to dreams of falling; fasting leads to dreams of rising."

2. Psychological causes: "fear breeds nightmares; joy induces fantasies and day dreaming."

3. Time of year and stage of life:"spring dreams reflect growth; winter dreams reflect contraction."

These dreams can be gateways to internal cultivation. Want to discover more? Share this and stay tuned.
