This was one of my strangest dream.. it happened around 3 weeks ago.

In my dream,I was hanging out with 3 of my friends in my old high school. Three of us were looking at the pond, the water was calm and clean with some flowers floating.
I saw a big thing moving at an enormous speed, it was a huge snake... we were terrified and ran away. The reptile chased us ... just like in 'anaconda' if u have seen the movie
 :P
One of my friend died straight away. We were shocked and dont know what to do. We ran through the playing yard.. to the class room hoping that the snake would not follow...
But it didn't stop. Then I jumped through the glass windows pass the basketball court.. I am totally exhausted. The serpent spit a poisonous acid at me, I couldnt move and paralysed. However, I can sit in meditation position and closed my eyes. I was confused, and chant Maha Karuna
Dharani hoping for miracle. I was aware that it is moving towards me.. (slightly open my eye).
The snake open the mouth and swallowed me. I felt my whole body was sucked, and pressed heavily. I was still chanting.. Namo ratnatrayaya..namo aryaavalokitesvaraya...

Then i suddenly awake. Just like my soul has left the body.
I realized it was a dream, but my ribs was a bit hurt and my breathing wasnt normal.

Can anyone explain what this means?

dunno whether u should care about dreams unless they are recurring.....

i once had a dream about a gigantic spider ....but then i killed many spiders before...

have you killed any snakes before? maybe you should consult a master if the dream is recurring

I had a similar dream before. The dream was so real, it didnt feel like a dream. Actually, I was half-dreaming and half-awakening. I had that dream when I was in Seattle, the day before I had to ask GM a life-threatening question...I woke up and realized that was an omen...... Next day, GM confirmed. I hate it...I really did.... I hate snake!

**sigh**, are you wishing for something now? Are you praying for it? if you are, I think that the result may not been too auspicious, so try to burn some paper money to change the fate okay?

The only dream I have ever had with a snake in it turned out to be a very bad omen.  
If you have a local Master please tell them about this dream A.S.A.P.

One time I had a dream about a snake. I forgot what it was about but that it was really scary because I am scared of snakes. After telling a master, he told me that the snake had actually come to thank me because I had some snake soup in Hong Kong and performed the deliverance mudra and mantra and the snake was able to be delivered.

In your case though, the snake ate you up...perhaps that is an omen or a warning. I agree, a Master would know best than us.

Hey everyone,
    do you think that the snake is purposely trying to scare you? or is it you who is scarying yourself? let me try to explain what i mean by this...
    when i was younger i use to torture bees ever since i was first stung by them i hated them and i guess the torturing was a way of seeking revenge... later i realized that i was only creating more problems for myself and decided to just let them be (no pun intended) but every time i heard one buzzing near by i would instantly tense up worried that it has come to sting me... and not matter what i was doing it would instantly change my mood into uneasyness... this could of shot me back into my old habit of wanting to get rid of them but i didnt take that course... i decided to bite the bullet and said to myself if i deserve to be stung i must acept my fate because i still owe a debt to many bees who i tortured in the past... when they buzz near me now i dont change anything other than knowing one is near by... they sometimes land on me and if other people are around they will get histerical trying to tell me a bee is on me, but i just keep doing what im doing... thinking if it stings me, i deserve it and if it flys away then that bee had compassion for me...
   when it all comes down to our fears it is karma that tortures us... fear can cause health problems, this is a retribution for past mis-deeds... if you cant accept what you owe then it will for surely come some day to collect the dept and youll go kicking and screaming to not pay...
   i dont want to insult anyone by saying this but i see fear as selfish... but this is a good thing because it gives us a way to practice selflessness for one moment! just one more run in the ladder towards enlightenment... are you going to take that next step or are you afraid of heights?
