Hi MJS

I have often wondered the same thing because to me dreams are a communication from the divine.

But I have a suspicion where George Ohsawa and others get their point of view about dreams.

I suspect that it is important to differentiate between dreams that I would call a communication from God and those dreams that are just the result of a diet using foods that are basically at the yin and yang extremes.

To give an example, I would use the idea of a writer or a creative person who needs to eat something sugary or to have a drink before the creative flow kicks in. When I went to college my roommates often spoke of having to have a beer when writing their papers. At the time, I assumed that the beer had some sort of magical properties. My Son In Law is a computer programer and I have never see so many people addicated to soda and candy.

Much of some of the so called creativity we see on TV and in books are the result of the body balancing out a diet that has far too much emphasis on the two yin and yang extremes imho.

I suspect this holds true for some dreams also.

I hope this added something to this topic.

Best,

Dave
