In my dreams...
It was like anyone playing a paused video. All began from where we left our last dream. I was again at the marriage hall sobbing in grief of loosing my love and her marriage. Chameli and my friends tried to console me. But, I was too much broken heart.
"Leave me alone"...
..I said whiningly and turned back, but in my surprise our location been changed and we found us shifted from marriage hall to middle of a jungle having stone benches arranged in circular way.
She pointed us to sit on the benches.
She hold my shoulder by both her hands, turned me, towards her and said, listen to me carefully...
Maddy, whatever you're experiencing here, ..and is happening here is just an illusion. It is a dreamworld and you are inside it. It's a place, where a man experiences the reimbursement of their unfulfilled wishes, desires, eroticism, thoughts, defeatism, finesse, grief, excitements, exasperation, avidity, anxiety, frustrations, and all those mind waves and emotions in their brain. Which remains inactive when they are conscious but gets activated while their sleep, because of the activation of their subconscious mind.
You and your friends are here entrapped in this mysterious Puzzle World of Dreams.
"Will you please elaborate". Said Rohit annoyingly who was stood still till now with two other irritated friends.
As you know, the mind is a composite of information-processing processes and our brain has two mind phases, that is conscious mind and subconscious mind.
Whereas a conscious mind is the memory analyzer and storage house of all those physical states of action and activities that our brains records throughout the day.
But the Subconscious mind is the memory storage and analyzer of all those psychological thoughts of mental, spiritual, immaterial and physical connections within minds.
This Subconscious state of mind is responsible for the dreams we see during our sleep. Our conscious mind remain inactive during our sleep and the subconscious mind becomes active which acts vice versa when conscious mind is active.
So then, we live and experience the world of thoughts and desires of our subconscious mind during this time; with our physical body in resting state. That's what we call as dreams.
There's a nano microsecond time period taken by our mind during it changes its phases activation from conscious to the subconscious mind after we sleep and again subconscious to conscious when we wake up by.
Our conscious mind need to be a strong flow of hormones which acts as neurotransmitters such as dopamines, serotonin or the love hormone oxytocin results in romantic and erotic dreams.
Such neurotransmitters also acts as helping hand during our minds changes its phases. But in a Full Moon day of Lunar Lunacy effect, our body lacks its secretion and so the result is your body was unable support the changing phase of mind by your brain.
So is the reason why, you are stuck in a subconscious state of mind. That is why you are in a dreamworld now.
Okay, but why we four only? Rohit asked.
Remember? What you were doing just before you go for sleeping, after when you watched your first dream about me? Asked Chameli.
Yeah, I think we were all talking about you in a conference call. Rajesh said.
That's the reason why you are here. Said Chameli in a straight manner.
What rubbish, there is a millions and billions of people who might have talking about a same topic at a time, why don't they? Exclaimed Rohit.
Have patience. I'm gonna reveal everything to you. The point is... Isn't it a miracle or coincidence that only you four people having the same thoughts in a moment induced by the "Lunar lunacy effect, or Transylvania effect, in your brain." Chameli explained.
Woah... Wha..what effect? What's that? Asked Prince.
In short, that day was a very special in terms of astrology. A day of a Lunar Eclipse on a Full Moon day. As it is said in India, Chandra-Grahan in a day of Purnima. It's a rare situation in a hundreds of years to take place in such a day having an strong impact on a few selective human mind. Chameli explained.
Woah, I got it. Let me explain this friends. I said.
You sure? Chameli frowned. Of course, trust me. I nodded excitedly. Okay, go on... Chameli gestured.
I started...
"In "Othello", you might have read it, a tragedy; drama book by William Shakespeare, has also mentioned the lunar lunacy effect through the phrase that...
“It is the very error of the moon. She comes more near the earth than she was wont. And makes men mad.”
"Bro Maddy, you are creating it worse confusing now. Seems like a nerd is showing his library... huh. Rajesh taunted.
Don't call me nerd. Hmmm...I'm not finished yet. I frowned.
Ok, finish it first. Said Prince, who was calm and listening to me very attentively.
Shakespeare's phrase implies here, that the changes in Moon's position or conditions leaves an evil effects on a human brain when it comes as a result of wrong doings. That's the shortest reason of tragedy in Othello.
"Across the centuries, many a person has uttered the phrase...
“There must be a full moon-eclipse, out there,”...in an attempt to explain weird happenings at night.
Aristotle and Roman historian Pliny the Elder suggested that, ...the brain was the “moistest” organ in our body and thereby, it is most susceptible to the pernicious influences of the moon, which triggers the tides.
So they belief in the “lunar lunacy effect,” or “Transylvania effect,” which is responsible for high tides, erratic behaviors, psychiatric cases, suicides, homicides, natural disasters like tsunami, traffic accidents, fights and increase in crime rate and all manner of strange events.
As it is sometimes called, persisted in Europe through the Middle Ages, when humans were widely reputed to transmogrify into Werewolves or Vampires during a full moon day.
In short you can also call it "a day of negative energy, i.e., related to dark, evil, or spiritual powers or a day of Ghost, Vampires, or Werewolves."
One survey revealed that moonstruck humans are prone to unusual behaviors, as in 2007 several police departments in the U.K. even added officers on full-moon nights in an effort to cope with presumed higher crime rates." I explained it in a descriptive manner.
So, in this way, this transylvania effect has also affected in our mind that we have been trapped in the subconscious phase in this Dreamworld.
Am I right miss chameli? I said being proud in my wit after I finished explaining... Yes, you are. Replied Chameli, with a shine of appreciation in her eyes and also, there was an expression of astonishment in my friends faces.
...Wow, how are you so intelligent about this? Rajesh asked in astonishment.
Oh, thank you for complimenting me "intelligent". I might have read it in any article or fictional novel but don't remember the actual source other than google. I proudly said.
