Meaning of Guru/Saints in Dreams

SAT NAAM

 

QN: 

I once heard or read somewhere (may have been here) that if you dream of Yogi Bhajan while asleep, he is actually there to speak to you; to give you a message of some sort.

Has anyone heard of this?

If it is true, is the message supposed to be very clear?

Sat Nam!

QN:
Aloha.....

So odd that this would show up here today. I dreamt about Yogiji a few days
ago, he was comforting me. I felt comforted, very. He was holding me in a
very fatherly way.

The dream was very clear and lined up with my life which I am struggling
with at this point.

What it means? I don't know.

Sat Nam

Satnaam ji - dandauth bandhana ji (prostration greetings) at your holy feet.

 

Baba Ji explained to me that God has no form , that is why we call him Nirankar meaning Formless.

So to come to us he takes the form of His beloved one.  So whichever Guru/Baba Ji is loved by you, will be the form Nirankar takes to reach you, to comfort you and most importantly to encourage you that you are doing well and to keep on going.   They mostly appear dressed in white to show that they are from the pure God.   We normally get these kind of dreams/visions either when we are at a very low point in our life and hence are praying very sincerely from the bottom of our soul and that prayer is being answered.  Or as we progress on the spiritual path we encouter many blessed souls in astral form.  They all come to bless us.  Baba Ji explained when we see these blessed souls, just do dandauth bandhana (lying flat greeting) at their holy feet (kar dandauth pun vada ha...doing dadnauth to the saint is a virtuous deed ..Guru Granth Sahib).   If they ask us what we would like, NEVER EVER ask for any worldy desire to be fulfilled, just put palms together in namaskar and say, "We just ask for the gift of naam(god's Name), Seva( selfless service) and Bandagi (loving devotional worship)."

 

When we are given visions of the Guru/Baba Ji's it does not mean we have reached our spiritual destination, they are blessing us to continue all the way to the Realm of Truth (Sach Khand).  We normally are blessed with these kind of vision in the Realm of Grace (Karam Khand).   We only enter into the Realm of Grace when we are blessed by God who is fully manifest in the heart of a saint.   A saint can bless us through an initiation ceremony, or without even us realising it.  You may go to a holy place and come back feeling different, feeling more connected to God and feeling blessed.  It wasn't the place that blessed you though, it was probably a saint who you walked past without even realising.  A saint who picked up on your sincere prayers over a long period of time thirsting for the vision of God.  So God who is formless comes to us in dreams of the saints/Gurus to reassure us and then physically leads us to Himself in the heart of a saint who will bless us with gurprasad of naam.

 

This is what I have learned from Baba Ji and experienced in this life with God's grace.
