Dreams - 4.

My dad and myself are walking on a road that looked remarkably similar to marine drive in Bombay. I was walking in front of my dad, both us are carrying something in plastic bags. Waves were hitting the walls at full force but the sea was generally calm. I shouted to my dad to walk quickly as it was getting dark. We not step on a long, narrow bridge on the river ganga that has no side walls. We both start walking casually, not at all afraid of the water, that stretched till horizon. The bridge was at a good height and i look down once and look at my father who has picked up his pace and gaining on me. The moment he approaches me dolphins suddenly start jumping all around us moving towards the end of the bridge from which we started. The sudden frenzy caught both us unawares and i get scared out of my wits. I cling to one of the poles and my dad shouts at me, "what the heck have you done?", for which i answer, "I didn't do anything!". Now there is rain, torrential rain, and more dolphins. A tiny dolphin jumps on the bridge near me and i push it back into the water. Now something incredible happened, a weird dolphin, that had a pig-like snout, stops mid-air and looks at me. The frame is freezed and i see the scene of the dolphin observing me as a third person, above both of them. The dolphin jumps back into the river and again the dream is a first-person experience. My dad and myself decide to head back to the start of the bridge but as we approach it see water from the sea flooding the entire place and now coming towards us in full force. My dad who's ahead of me starts running towards me. The End.

Explanation: My dad never walks slower than me, he's always in front me shouting at me to walk fast. So in my dream my subconscious mind got back at him, made him slower.
In the current book that I'm reading, the red queen, the author writes about a certain kind of bottlenose dolphins, from the pacific, which have three times as big a brain as those of dolphins found in the river ganga. When i read that i wondered that ganga has dolphins in it. That's how in my dream i saw dolphins jumping in the river ganga and the one particular one which stares at me has a weird nose!
Can't explain the storm. Large water bodies always bring the images of thunder storms; may be. I've never been to marine drive by the way.

I'm a part of the NFS game and riding a porsche cayenne. In fact when i think of it I was actually riding a boxster but in the dream i was referring to the car as a cayenne. I was playing a double role - i was the driver as well as the guy playing the game on his xbox. I was switching between both the point of views. G was also in the car along with me. I was driving along dangerous curves on a ghat road and in one particular stunt i jump from one mountain to another. While in the air G keeps shouting, "We won't make it" while i keep re-assuring, "Yes we would!". I make a perfect landing but find out i've reached an illegal part of the map and my car's transported to the start of the race. This time i reach a playground and my porsche is atop a swing. By this time i no longer am the driver but just the player playing the game. I keep moving the joystick but the car is stuck. G is nowhere to be seen.

1. Three of my schollmates with whom i regularily hang out on saturdays are in a park, with lush green grass and gigantic coniferous trees. I zoom into the park on a motorcycle disturbing the conversation my friends were having. I keep going at max speed in the park and go over a small hill on the grass land, the impact of which hurls me into space - I see the dream as a third person - and i am way above all the trees. After a moment of unparalleled thrill, i come crashing down to earth and i woke up.

2. A schoolmate of mine whom i haven't called in many days rings me up and asks for an explanation. She was angry and sounded highly disappointed.

Dreams - 1.

Obviously one must hold oneself responsible for the evil impulses of one's dreams. In what other way can one deal with them? Unless the content of the dream rightly understood is inspired by alien spirits, it is part of my own being. - Sigmund Freud

Thanks to the book 'The Interpretation of Murder' my interest in psychoanalysis and freudian theories got renewed. The wannabe freud in me wants to interpret my own dreams and would be happy if anybody else interprets them for me. So from today onwards i would describe my (printable) dreams in my blog space. Here are few of the dreams i dreamt in the past couple of days -

1. A giant board based tile game with numbers written on the tiles. I wasn't particularly keen on solving the puzzle but was just thinking there should be many 2's on the tiles.
2. I hear a non-telugu speaking labmate of mine speaking fluent telugu and i wonder what personal stuff i might have talked in front of him assuming he doesn't understand my language.
