Dreams are one of the most interesting of psychic subjects. In the Bible, they play an important role. Through dreams some of the highest truths of religion have been unfolded. Such revelations can be explained through modern psychology. Dreams are the pure product of the Sub-conscious mind. While the mind is at rest, the under-mind that never knows sleep is busy in projecting its fancies. In dreams, the Subconscious mind projects its own plans and purposes. These are colored by the personality, for dreams reflect the mental and moral nature of the individual. In this light we can understand the dreams of Joseph. He was a youth, filled with ambition, who felt the God-urge to self-fulfillment. He was fired with a real purpose in life. Joseph was psychically alive. From such a soul emanated the famous dreams. They reveal the desire for place and power. We are told that his brothers hated him for his dreams. When he came near them at Dothan, they exclaimed, "Behold, here comes the dreamer of dreams." This is the epithet that has been hurled at every progressive thinker. The men who leave the beaten tracks and reach out for the new are always called visionaries. Yet, these very dreamers have given the world more than myriads of so-called practical men, satisfied with things as they are.

Your dreams can reveal truths or the knowledge of events taking place elsewhere. This insight can be explained in the light of our knowledge of the Sub-conscious mind. For this is the mind that can telepath, sense or think through time and space. All thought-transference is affected through this mental medium. If your dreams appear to show events that have not yet taken place, they are simply the expression of the sub-conscious link to cosmic consciousness. Modern psychology accepts fully the theory of telepathy, and there is hardly a person who has not had experience of a telepathic nature. Dreams have played their important part in the intuition of truth, and can be utilized for spiritual benefit. The thoughts that we think while awake will work in our under-mind, and shape themselves into our dreams and visions. We can control our dreams by shaping our emotions and desires. This is what the Bible means in the saying: "I was asleep, but my heart was awake." You can be in sound sleep and yet be spiritually awake through your Sub-conscious Mind that will give forth dreams and visions. Your heart, the seat of your emotions, never sleeps, because the feelings are part and parcel of your under-mind.
