Dreams & Sufism

In Sufism, Les Hixon says, “Dreams are a helpful way to step around our limited self because the psyche is not operating at an ordinary conscious level.” He says, “a dream is a like a lock and the interpretation is a key and when they meet together correctly then something opens and a flash of recognition occurs on the part of the dreamer and everyone else who is present.” He states, “The spiritual path is the way we gradually emancipate ourselves.” Hixon talks about the Quran and Islam and he explains the important Sufi practice of zikr. The program includes chants from the Sufi tradition.
