Human Dreams

After reading these quotes from Seth, it’s no wonder that A Course In Miracles describes physical existence as a dream!

“Now many of the characteristics you consider human – in fact, most of them – appear to one extent or another in all other species.  It was the nature of man’s dreams, however, that was largely responsible for what you like to think of as the evolution of your species.  You learned to dream differently than other creatures.

“You dreamed you spoke languages before their physical invention, of course.  It was the nature of your dreams, and your dreams’ creativity, that made you what you are .

“The creativity of the species is also the result of your particular kind of dream specialization.  It amounts to a unique state of existence by itself, in which you combine the elements of physical and nonphysical reality.  It is almost a threshold between the two realities, and you learned to hold your physical intent long enough at that threshold so that you have a kind of brief attention span there, and use it to draw from nonphysical reality precisely those creative elements that you need.”
