The Answer is Buried Under The Ice of Antarctica

[peacefulvet]

I had a dream last night that in the future I was a part of a crew employed by the government to uncover a structure under the ice of Antarctica that would contain the answer, led by a recently discovered prophesy that led the government and policy.

There is prophesy if Isreal accepted Jesus and there is prophesy if Isreal did not accept Jesus and that was the key that led us to believe in this prophesy that took us to Antarctica.

The law required that you submit to the doctors treatment (I'm guessing we were ill from global warming).

The alarm went off before I could find out what the answer was we were trying to uncover.

Strange dream. Last meeting I had with the mormon missionarys, I was explaining that I felt that the church had cracks in it (one major crack was its silence on global warming).

Is this dream in response to that, or just a creation of my mind to find peace with this - don't really know. But because I remember this dream so vividly, it must be important.

some dreams do have hidden signs and predictions.. and from history we learn that some people actually have the gift of predicting dreams and explaining the hidden meanings..

a little off topic i have to say i am just one of those persons who is fascinated by nature and historic places.. i just wish to see all the mysterious places and observe the feeling firsthand by being there.. like the pyramids or the antarctic snow.. this just reminds me when i was recently flying to canada and the plane was flying over iceland snow covered seas and then it entered the snow covered mountains above canada.. that feeling of just looking at those big huge snow covered lands from the top and the smoke of cold winds rising from them.. was fascinating as well as some strange scary feeling by just looking at those huge snow piles.. just the same feeling you have when you are standing for example at the bottom of the himalaya range in pakistan and just looking at those huge big mountains all around you.. makes you feel you are just so small and powerless in front of nature..

It really is hard to say. According to one theory, all of your dreams are about the future.

The most common theory is that dreams are personal to that person. Because it didn't have any weird quarks in it, I could say it was about the future, but then agian, because it contained a lot of religion, I can easily determine that it was my mind being concerned about rejoining the Mormon church and I was being told that the answer is deep down in the center of my soul and recent events make it possible for me to uncover it.

By the way - I told the missionary's I wasn't rejoining and I can't say that I ever will. I believe that the true church had been taken up about 100 to 200 years after Jesus was crucified and what we have today are a lot of churches trying to be like that true church and that the Mormons were no different than anyone else, but that I was disturbed by the Mormon churches silence on global warming and the war. The Catholic Pope condemned the war, yet the Mormon prophet does not take a stand on even that. So we have parted ways, I think they're good people and I gave them a dozen free eggs (we have chickens - that's cool).

I understand the feeling - I felt the the same way the first time I out at sea. It inspired me to write a poem.

That poetry is excellent! Its in a strange "sailor" tone but I really liked it. Very nice work, Sir.

I also can understand the feelings you may be going through with the religion. When we accept a religion, we expect it to be our ultimate guide in everything. And when religion fails to comprehend something our minds are curious about, we start wondering if we have been on the right track. An important thing i learned from the West is that relgion and state are seperated in the culture and religion is considered different and not to interfere with state matters. Some religions however, do not have the concept of seperation of state and religion and they present an entire way of life in all affairs.

May be, and this is maybe as I am not an interpreter of dreams, but I am just wondering maybe the crack in the church is indicating that you are feeling the ways of religion failing to go parallel with your thoughts or maybe your mind is finding something missing somewhere, the gap thats growing for lack of answers. Water generally reflects depth in a dream and if its calm it shows thoughts converged to some point of thought. Ice may represent frigidity and snow filled calm waters can mean mysterious depths in thoughts about something that may be bothering the mind. You may have been thinking about global warming and melting of ice is interlinked with those thoughts. Plus the religious lack of answers could have resulted in that dream where thoughts intermingled.

Global warming is infact a very serious issue and I recently saw the ad on tv of Al Gore's movie on the subject. I would have to get hold of that movie as it seems to reveal some important points which we perhaps are avoiding to notice.

Hi im ben this is my first post

There is another reason you havent considerd. It is said that your dreams represent what is happend that day cand days before and your mind is trying to sort and make an understanding of what happend so dreams are just scrambled messages that are made while your brain is sorting things out.

So to put it baisically you could have been worried about you leaving the missonarys and had something really cold that gave you the chills. or you might have been talking about cold places and the rememberd about the mormans religeon part about antartica.

There could be thausands of possibilitys but i cant think of that much becasue I dont know what happend to you the day or week before you had that dream.

I've studied a little bit on dreams and there is this theory. Because we all must sleep, but not to rest, because we really don't rest when we sleep, we dream, and have 10 to 15 dreams a night, each dream only lasts a couple minutes even though it might seem to last forever.

If we remember our dream, it is the last dream we had before we wake. Theory is, all the days going ons must be filed away at night causing us to dream, things that make no sense at all. This must happen, if not then we start to see visions after long periods of time without sleep, being forced to file things away.

I know in the Navy we would go a long time without sleep. Haven't seen visions, but weird things would happen. The first thing that would go would be a sense of time. You could not tell the difference between 8 minutes or 8 hours - can't explain it except it was weird.

The Kahuna's however believed that you dreamed your future, and they had the power to change it. This is why when early settlers found Hawaii, the people of Hawaii expected them and greeted them with gifts. Their Kahanu had dreamt that white men would visit and bring with them things like sky scrapers, cars and planes. The kahuna who dreampt this it is said accepted it, so it happened.

In the bible God communicates with his people threw dreams.

So I think their are different kind of dreams, what I don't know for sure is how to tell the difference.

Its true that some dreams are just our brain shuffling through the daily memories.

But some dreams do have a meaning and they predict the future or explain the past. Those are the ones I belive that we remember vividly. As we mostly forget the ones that werent supposed to have a message.

The Quran also tells us that some dreams are signs or revelations from God to the prophets or people, while some dreams are predictions of future or past and its a gift given by God for being able to interpret a dream. Prophet Yousuf (known as Joseph in english.. peace be upon him) had been given the gift of interpretation of dreams. Quran: Chapter Joseph

A little off topic, your experience of timelessness also supports the theory that time is infact a relative entity and dependent on what we expect it to be. I also felt the same while living in upper parts of Sweden or Norway, where the sky stays same sometimes for days and weeks and months, and if you dont see your watch, you can't really feel time moving. You could see the sun shining brightly at 12 at night or total darkness at 12 noon. Hah was totally weird but a good exercise for the mind!
