Does dreams make sense?

score:3

Yes and no.Dreams sometimes makes sense sometimes they don't.It's not an isolated event people sometimes experience dreams that do take place in the future.And it's getting harder to just dismiss it as mere coincidence (Precognitive Dreams).This is just a natural functioning of the mind.Whether dreams makes sense or not is not what releases us from suffering.

When we are in deep sleep our mind (chitt) doesn't get prana from self(soul, energy) and in result we do not remember anything, just nothingness.

But as soon as we are not in deep sleep, our chitt (which actually has the memory of each and every past lives), which in result gives us Dejavu.

The paradoxical point now is a blind man never saw dreams, a deaf being would never listen in dream(he will only see).

I think it also depends on our perception, i have seen a girl who can see with closed eyes.
