13 What was the Dream About?

The knock at the door made Tania come out of her dream state.

Sanya had been talking to her in her dream and had just left.

Still with closed eyes, Tania became aware of her surroundings. She was in Moscow, in her own house, actually, in her own room. She remembered taking an afternoon nap and having a pleasant dream. It was as if she met herself as a princess who lived in a past life.

As she opened her eyes, she saw that it was almost 4.45 p.m. The elders would be waiting for their tea in another 15 minutes or so. One of them must have come looking for her. Hence, the knocking at the door.

She swung her legs off the bed, got up and walked to open the door. Her paternal grandparents were at the door.

"Yes, Dada ji and Dadi ji?" she asked. (Dada ji- paternal grandfather and Dadi ji Paternal grandmother, Ji is added as respect for people elder to you or even otherwise. You can say Renu ji to me).

"Sorry to disturb you, we did not realize that you had slept," Her Dada ji responded.

"We were proceeding to your kitchen to make tea, but thought we would ask you first as we are not aware were the tea leaves, sugar and milk etc are kept," her Dadi ji voiced her thoughts.

"By the look on your face something happened to you. Let us go downstairs and talk about it before we call the others to come down for tea," her Dada ji said with a concerned expression on his face.

"Ok, Give me two minutes to make myself presentable. You please proceed slowly, I will join you."

Saying this Tania sent her paternal grandparents downstairs while she went to the washroom to tidy up. She looked in the mirror and found that she did look terrible. Her hair was as if she had been pulled through the bushes. She quickly washed her face and combed her hair then headed downstairs.

Her Dada ji and Dadi ji were standing in the library and again were looking at her books, the ones on Past Life Regression.

"I'll just put the kettle for boiling water to make tea and come back in a jiffy," she told them as she rushed into the kitchen.

Within five minutes she was back.

"Come lets sit down and talk a little, said her Dada ji. We have 15-20 minutes."

Placing one arm around her shoulder and his other arm around her Dadi ji's shoulder, her Dada ji led them to the armchairs placed nearby.

They all sat down and then her Dada ji started to speak, looking at her with a piercing gaze.

"You had a dream?"

"It scared you?"

"It relates to your past life?"

" You have been having dreams like this in the past also?"

Tania wondered how they knew.

Her Dada ji seemed to have caught her thoughts and said, "You must be wondering how I know. Well, I used to get such dreams too."

"Now can you tell me what you saw."

.

Tania told him that since her childhood she had been seeing temples and forts in her dreams. They were not so vivid but after her parents passed away, these dreams were becoming more and more clear. She had been afraid, at first she thought that her mind was playing tricks on her as she was alone in the house.

Then when she started seeing these dreams in succession practically every night, she had gone to doctors, and they had told her that there was nothing wrong with her. She had even visited a psychiatrist.

The psychiatrist found her words amusing and told her that she was imaginative, otherwise there was nothing wrong with her. When she had tried to argue, the doctor told her that he was the doctor, and he said there was no problem with her.

To understand why she was having recurring dreams, she had searched the net but could not find anything substantive. She had then bought a book from the nearby book store, regarding interpretation of dreams. She had learned that dreams were connected to the things you had done during the day with some random thoughts in the mind. All dreams could be interpreted.

But when the dreams became recurrent and the dreams were the same every time, then the dreams had a meaning maybe a warning, or a connection of a past life.

Thereafter, she started to search the net for past life and got to know about 'Past Life Regression'. She was impressed with the work done by Dr. Brain L Weiss on his patient and how he got to know about Past Life Regression via hypnotism. She also explained that she became so impressed that she went to the bookshop and found all his books to help her understand her condition. She had read all of them.

"OK, What happened this afternoon, you looked dazed?" her Dada ji inquired.

"I met my previous self from a previous life."

"My previous self came to me in a dream to warn me. She said my life was in danger."

"Her name is Sanya, and she said that she belonged to Kalibangan from the Indus Valley Civilization. She was a princess and was dressed in a Sari."

"She told me that my uncle in this life had been her enemy in her life also."

"He was planning to kill her and had probably got rid of her brother and father also."

"To convince me she told me what all the grew and traded with other cities as well as abroad especially Mesopotamia and Egypt.Their cities flourished, and they had a high standard of living."

"They knew how to till the soil, to grow crops, harvest the crops. The cotton they grew was made into cloth. Another work was making beads. They made utensils on the potters wheel."

"They made metallic pots and pans, huge jars to store cereals. They also made weapons. These things were also traded by transporting them via bullock carts to the cities near the coast."

"They made stealite seals which depict a single animal like a unicorn, bull, elephant, rhinoceros etc. but some seals also depict trees, semi-human, and human figurine. Some of these seals contain the image of a ship or mother earth or the ruler of the animals. These seals are used for trade."

"I asked her how she knew that my uncle and her uncle were the same?"

"Sanya told me that while she was looking for me, she had entered Igor's room by mistake and saw him. He looked the same as her uncle possessing the same calculating mean face."

"She told me that he behaves as if he is the best person on earth, being very considerate, talking with all sweetness etc but still advise me to be very careful as he is no good."
