    So we can imagine anything, because the dream has passed through everything to us... this is the most beautiful story I’ve ever heard. Human beings are the keepers of the dream so we have the intellectual responsibility to protect Earth.

      Beyond romanticism, those last few words require more consideration. The earth doesn't need protection in the sense that a child does, because the earth is relatively omnipotent in comparison to people. Intellectual responsibility sounds great on the surface, though many with such assertions fall prey to self-deception and or hubris when they don't understand that the nature of dreaming implies a paradigm that's about sustaining or restoring harmony, not one of control by force, which intellectual ideas about what is correct, couple with distorted instinct, often lead to. The reliable responsibility is to the rituals and practices that enable balance in the ecology of consciousness (the real meaning of "keepers of the dream"). This way dreaming is not undermined in favour of abstract intellectualism and interventionism that lacks deeper resonance and understanding, which doesn't end well. What we need is polyphasic integration of the revitalizing power of dreaming/remembering, with responsible stewardship of the ecology that keeps inflationary power in balance and attunes to the unspeakable value of being and nature. So protection translates essentially to self-awareness and the principles of harmonious relationship, augmented by movement, ongoing dialogue, self-transcendence, and intellect.

      Thank you♾️♾️♾️🙏🙏🙏to our owners of Australia, our indigenous tribes. You have protected The Dreaming for 380,000years and we have not understood that since we white devil's came to steal your land. We must now understand our part in The dreaming and begin to protect this beautiful land Australia and its myriad natural treasures. We must stop harvesting our natural resources simply for profit and greed. That is the opposite intention of The Dreaming spirit. So this intention must be framed in a proper legal treaty with our indigenous guardian people's. Surely this is not too much to ask for the favours of living in this completely beloved land Australia?

    The idea of dreaming could also be connected with the idea that uncreated consciousness spawned a simulation . When the creative consciousness had ‘run the simulation’ (for want of a better term) individual units of consciousness (that would be us) were invited to download into the simulation and continue the process of creation.
    A bit like choosing an avatar in a multiplayer video game.

      Don’t agree with the use of the word simulation though I’m in agreement with many of Campbell’s ideas - Personally I feel ‘ manifestation’ captures more of what the material Universe represents- The Australian Aboriginal’s ‘ dreaming’ concept is terrific because in metaphysical terms it is closest of all the creation Myths that exist to what actually occurred billions of years ago - The Universe akin to the human mind dreamed or imagined as we do about various projects & for the Universe this was how could ‘consciousness’ be expressed in material form - As in pre construction stage of machines & building all the different components need to undergo testing by way of experimentation - I posit that we as human ‘ intelligent energy’ systems are at the forefront in the grand Cosmological experiment of Mind in Matter

      630 plus different language groups originally to my knowledge .. Now all that is left is approx. 230. Using the words "the dreaming" applied to these creation myths and lore was an English person's words. This transpired after stories she sent back to England in the 1800's. The ladies name was Frances Gillen. She worked in Alice Springs in the 1890's as a Telegraph Officer. Maybe you could read about it here. With the lies the English have told I often wonder why even the indigenous use this ENGLISH TERM now .. SMH

    Whose dreaming story is this? I'm very curious.
    Stories are super important to Aboriginal Peoples, ESPECIALLY Australians. They are hard-fucking-core when it comes to telling stories and learning their songlines. So much so that people today have essentially, a first hand account of things that happened thousands of years ago.
    The Aboriginal Australian culture is over 40,000 years old. They still tell stories of people living amongst mega fauna and its so accurate that they knew what certain animals were, and what they looked like before archeologists found bones and fossils. Look up the Diprotodon.
    I understand that this is more of a video essay, but combining stories from different lands would be like trying to combine the myths of Ancient Greece and Egypt.

    been coming back to this a few times and in more life experience i think i understand it now.
    imagine you are there at the start all you saw was the elements battling
    the soul judges its influencers based on its energy levels
    and then life learnt it could create its over energy to influence the system "dreamtime" (maybe)
    so the animals dreamed of new stuff
    but when humans came we understood how to do the rituals alike to aboriginals to generate energy to influence the dreamtime (which they say energize life in a new way)
    thats around when the dreamtime ended alot because we escaped the dream or nature and tried to create new dreams
    but now we don't understand the dream and got lost in the dream in modern time
    so by that logic we shoud re enter the dream and understand the beauty in it again before we choose to "wake up" and go our own way

      Hi MissKirin6, I can provide you the original pdf from Rowan Walking Wolf. When I say "adaptation" is because any expression of a myth, legend or tale is an adaptation from an original lost in the darkness of time. In this sense, as Lévi-Strauss suggested, any adaptation is one of the forms adopted by the story, creating all of them the real and deep story. That is, any adaptation, provided that it respects the main lines of the story, is as valid as any other adaptation. You can find me in Facebook as Grian A. Cutanda - Scotland, and I can send you the pdf from there. If this not work, we can exchange our emails in private. Thank you for valuing my work.

    There is difference between dreaming and memories and even when one wakes from either one finds oneself still dreaming! It is important to know this next point. We preceive, this a hard fact but what we preceive is not a hard fact of same kind! Native cultures around the world have held in high regard the dreamer and the dream, my own experience in dreaming and memories would have me agree with practices, but with that said. I have come to understand that this is no more absulute than reason both are malable at best. With all that can be said about dreaming or reason they are two different aspects of human cognition contraditions between the two is just an illusion / but there is even more to this story much more . We are all in our infancy when it comes understanding what it all means even the best of science of neuralogy and physics are at a lose to explain the puzzle of what it means to be. All I can say at this point is be happy be joyful for our great fortune for having Life!

    This puts context to the snake in the Dreaming narrative.
    I come from a narrative where the snake became representative of an evil appetite for a dichotomous knowledge of good and bad. And a loss of the life God intended as a result.
    I think a snake is a good representation of that, with eyes that do not close, and an appetite to consume what will fit its belly, sizing up prey, and striking when unexpected and taking advantage.
    To see it as part of another creation narrative, sometimes with, sometimes without, the emphasis on betrayal is interesting.
    Also I am pondering how much that informs evolution as an idea too. Thank you for this.

All the stories are connected with the different principles and fragments of the Earth Charter.

    Hi, I am an Aboriginal woman, a Pitjantjatjara Woman of the first nations people of Australia. I'd like to firstly say, the woman pictured in the first frame is not aboriginal and this could create a lot of confusion. Secondly on a scientific level, while a lot of people would consider this myth, it has recently been shown that my people, the oldest living race, co-existed alongside mega-fauna. Our stories or "myths" correlate with archaelogical evidence of these mega fauna. So our "myths" are infact not so mythological and closer to an ancient truth. Still a beautifully presented reading of the dreaming however it would have been better ready by an indigenous Australian, as any other culture cannot properly appreciate the story they are telling to tell it right. Also this isnt the total Aboriginal concept of creation, only one story, and not the creation story... And this story varies from tribe to tribe... which if you look up our language map.... its a lot of tribes. I am not really sure this is so accurately represented and would love to know where your research came from..

Even we know that they are true narratives in the collective unconscious, which is as real as the physical world. Please, read Joseph Campbell in any of his works. Thank you.
