There are some truths that cannot be known or learned by the mind or the emotions, but only through the body. Indeed, our bodies have their own wisdom, and it is to our pleasure and happiness that we embrace it. So we have tai chi, massage, aikido, fasting, shiatsu, dance, nudism, individual and team sports, mountain climbing, and numerous other body-based paths. Vaughan Dreams can be valuable guides on most spiritual paths. They reveal truths about ourselves, and our relationships to those around us, that we may ignore or deny in our daily lives.
Dreams also can be profound sources of creative inspiration.
Dreams teach us through a language of symbols and myths. When first working with dreams they can seem impenetrable, impossible to understand, but those who learn their puzzling ways are rewarded with meaningful personal insight. There are several excellent guides available. The books of Jeremy Taylor are especially helpful. A Guide to Finding Spiritual Fulfillment in Everyday Life, by Rich Fields and Peggy Taylor are two of the best introductory books available.
