DLP,
This dream seems particularly meaningful to me personally as I continue toward the degree I'm pursuing. I already 'know' that mind, particularly the collective mind, has a sort of sentience to it. So many philosophers and scientists and esotericists have written about it. I guess the take away for me is this: "Crazies" which may not be a fair term to use here, are also part of that sentient Mind. Therefore, as we continue drugging the hell of people who don't appear to be "normal" (yeah, another word I can't stand at all), the more zombie-oriented and dumbed down our society is. In other words, the psychiatric desire to treat INDIVIDUALS with antipsychotics have a definitive side effect beyond the individual atrocities. That is, the collective mind also shrinks toward nothingness. Creativity is thwarted; emotional responses are deadened.
Thanks for the dream, because this seems to be speaking legions to me. I expect more insights later also.
