Dreams are
wrapped up in imaginative
speculation.
Certain
characteristics of dreams are similar, no matter who is dreaming.
Dreamtime is when waking
consciousness flees and you have a dream.
Dreaming relates to
personal obstacles within
general social problems
initiated into every culture when the
culture was founded.
Everyone has to pass over the threshold of
personal self-limitation.
Dreamtime talks about
permanent conditions within your own psyche as they relate to the physical
conditions of your life now, at this moment.
Concern about overcoming an
obstacle becomes a dream about
failure.
Failure will be associated
with other failures in your subconscious so the images may not relate to
the current obstacle but rather
reference it.
The dream is
an inexhaustible source of
spiritual information.
A personal
dream carries a basic mythological
theme.
To understand your dream
all you have to do is remember.
Take one or two images or ideas and
associate them.
The
dream will be based on experiences with significance in your life that well
up from your subconscious that you have not consciously resolved.
Soon
the next dream will come along, and your
interpretation will go
further.
Dream
interpretations have existed for millennium.
People of all cultures have
succumbed to superstitious notions about dreams.
A dream, arising
from the subconscious
mind, is a personal experience of that
deep ground that is the
support of our conscious lives.
A myth is a
cultural dream and a dream is a private
myth.
If your
private myth, your dream, is not in
accord with the culture, you are out of sync with your social culture.
Those out of sync are in for an
adventure in the
deep dark forest.
Visionaries have moved out of social cultural
protection and into a
reality broken down into basic elements,
a reality of first hand
experience.
Original
experiences must be translated into cultural recognized symbols.
Forged in the fire of a
new interpretation of reality you either see things anew or
you become lost and
must return to the known social
interpretation.
Leave the culture's
garden path and you find culturally difficult situations.
To embark
on the Hero's Journey takes the courage to face
cultural trials.
There is
another, deeper understanding of dream time - which is of a time that is
outside of time which is simply just
an enduring state of
being.
Alchera
The Dreaming is a sacred time
outside living memory when
ancestral heroes traveled
across a formless land
creating sacred sites and
all the living
things.
"Yingarna, the
Earth Mother, came from the east.
She was carrying many string bags
with lots of children inside.
She went to the floodplain on the other
side of the East Alligator River.
She travelled all over scattering
children everywhere.
Yingarna went back to the floodplain and
circumcised the children.
They died afterwards.
So Western Arnhem Land tribes became
non-circumcising peoples.
She went back to the east and circumcised the
children she had left there.
They didn't die, so today those children
are still circumcised.
Yingarna kept traveling around everywhere until
all the children had been parceled out of her string bags.
String bags
represent different tribes and languages." - Alison Nawirridj
All life is part of a vast and
complex single network of relationships.
In this Dreaming lies the sacredness of
the Earth.
The life
spirit of a human being is connected with ancestors and the Earth.
Each human being is an
incarnation of an original
ancestral spirit.
This
eternal spirit existed before the life of the individual begins, and
continues to exist when the life of the
individual ends.
Both before and after life
an ancestral spirit exists in
the Dreaming and is only initiated
into life by being born through a mother.
At
death, the disembodied
ancestral spirit returns to the Dreaming to commune with the other
disembodied ancestral
spirits.
Every individual
in an essential way exists eternally in the Dreaming.
When a mother feels a child
move in the womb for the first time, it is the work of the ancestral spirit
of the land in which the mother currently stood.
Upon birth the child
is considered to be a special custodian, an axis mundi guardian, of this land
and is taught the stories and songlines of that place.
Songlines travel across Australia, through up to
ten different dialects.
Songlines are kept alive and frequently
performed at large gatherings.
The expression 'Dreamtime' refers to the 'time before time', 'time
outside of time' or 'the time of the creation of all things', as if this time
was in the past.
But Dreaming in a real sense is also of the present
and of the future.
Aboriginal people call
Dreaming the all-at-once time
because they experience it as the past, present, and future existing
at the same time.
The everywhen of the Dreaming is considered to be
objective, while linear time is
considered a subjective creation of rational consciousness.
The
Dreaming is often used to refer to spirituality.
The Dreaming
stories are stories about creation of sacred places, landforms, people, animals
and plants, law and tradition.
The
Dreaming includes a complex network of knowledge, faith and practices derived
from stories of creation dominating
all aspects of Aboriginal life.
The Dreaming sets the structures of
society, the rules for social
behavior and the ceremonies
performed in order to maintain the life of the land.
For the Hebrews the
Dreamtime occurred in the
Garden of Eden.
For
the Persians the Dreamtime occurred in
Paradise.
For the
Greeks the Dreamtime occurred on
Mount Olympus.
For
nearly all cultures the Dreamtime happened a very long time ago.
Events
occurring a very long time ago in the Dreamtime will remain deeply shrouded in
a mysteriously hazy cloak of mist
and fog throughout eternity.
Ngalyod
To the Gunwinggu, the Rainbow Serpent is
Ngalyod, the great creation mother from whom the first people were born.
She is the great creator, ever since the Dreamtime, because she brings
the Wet Season after the long Dry, which rejuvenates the land with plants and
animals flourishing.
After
rain she stands on her tail
to reach high into the sky.
Ngalyod is a harsh mother, punishing
severely those breaking her taboos or failing to observe the rituals associated
with her Dreaming sites.
Borlung
Borlung is always male, and sometimes he is referred to as the son of
Ngalyod.
As with Ngalyod, he is seen as a rainbow in the sky, sometimes
over water, and even in the spray from a waterfall.
The Dalabon believe there are many Borlung, and they
believe the Borlung are strongly linked to fertility.
The borlung snakes are
common in waterholes, and one must enter a woman is she is to conceive.
When a person dies, the spirit will change back to a Borlung and return
to the waterhole to await another woman it can enter as the spirit of the baby.
At the beginning of time, there was Jingana, the Mother.
Jingana grew 2 large eggs in her belly, one becoming the male serpent
Borlung, the other a female, Ngalkunburriyaymi, had an appearance more like
that of a fish.
When represented in paintings, Ngalyod and Borlung are
usually given snake forms, Jingana usually has a composite hermaphroditic
appearance, having a head ornament of
white cockatoo feathers, a
beard, a serrated back like a crocodile, and her chest has a prominent bulge
like a brisket bone.

This website defines a
new perspective with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its author adheres. The
author feels that the faλsification of reaλity outside personal experience has
forged a populace unable to discern pr☠paganda from Яeality and that this has
been done purposefully by an internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel through their
agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reaλity on the human race.
Religi☯us int☯lerance ☯ccurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious
practices, religi☸us beliefs or persons due to their religi⚛us ide⚛l⚛gy. This
web site marks the founding of a system of philºsºphy nªmed The Truth of the
Way of the Lumière Infinie - a ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery re☦igion based
on reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme
leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is
encouraged to develop a pers∞nal relati∞n with Ć∞n
through the pursuit of the knowλedge of reaλity in the hope of curing the
spiritual c✡rrupti✡n that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of The
Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on
this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against individuals due to their
religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a "hate ˘rime."
This web site
in no way c☬nd☬nes vi☬lence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the
violence that is already occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartels
desire to c✡ntr✡l the human race. The internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel already
controls the w☸rld ec☸n☸mic system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the global
indus✈rial mili✈ary en✈er✈ainmen✈ complex and is responsible for the collapse
of morals, the eg● w●rship and the destruction of
gl☭bal ec☭systems. Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation
with bi☣hazards of a gun.
American social mores and values
have declined precipitously over the last century as the corrupt international
cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests in the ability to
deceive the p☠pulace in general through c✡rp✡rate media by pressing emotional
buttons which have been πreπrogrammed into the πoπulation through prior
c☢rp☢rate media psych☢l☢gical ☢perati☢ns. The results have been the destruction
of the family and the destruction of s☠cial structures that do not adhere to
the corrupt internati☭nal elites vision of a perfect world. Through distra˘tion
and coercion the dir⇼ction of th✡ught of the bulk of the p☠pulati☠n has been
direc⇶ed ⇶oward s↺luti↻ns proposed by the corrupt internati☭nal elite that
further con$olidate$ their p☣wer and which further their purposes.
