It's not often that I don't realy know how to explain something in my dream, or that something even bothers me, but this experience was pretty weird, even distrubing to a certain extent.
Since this forum has a lot going about (lucid) dreams, astral projection, and spirituality in general, and how those topics seem to be intertwined, I thought I'd ask here.
I'm would be very gratefull for any suggestions, since i'm a bit in the woods here.
Oh, and sorry if this is a enormous block of text, I try to construct it a bit so it's at least readable.
Well, here goes.
The majority of the dream was pretty insignificant, slightly adventurous, had it all before in one kind or another.
There was a building, it felt familiar, that I had to infiltrate. Trying not to be seen or caught, I used platforms, gantry's, beams and the like to stay above ground and not be noticed.
Most of the dream went like that, until I entered a multi level room.
In this room, someone was waiting for me, someone who noticed me even though I was realy good at not being seen. This person was a villain, in the hollywood cliche sense.
He walked up to me, and even though I could run away, I didn't.
I noticed he had a knife in his hand, and when he came close, he slashed the knife toward me.
I tried to stop him, and we struggled. I felt very overpowerd, and couldn't keep it up.
At that moment, I realised nothing realy made sense, that this must be a dream, that I didn't have to fight this person.
Now here is the part that confuses me.
When the thought hit me, everything disapeard, and I found myself looking in a third person perspective at myself lying in bed.
I knew that the person lying there was me. Usualy when I dream in third person perspective, I am distached from myself. Not now. This time, I was this person, yet, I was watching from above.
That moment, I twitched, I saw myself ten times at once.
I'm at a loss of words to describe this, but if you've ever seen the Matrix, where they are dodging bullets and you can see that person almost several times on the same place, that was how it looked.
There were dozen's of me lying on the same place, twitching and moving very fast, most of my faces looking very painfull, almost screaming silently, all very blurred and indistinct from each other, yet at the same tame all different.
Then, everything became calm again. All the different 'versions' faded, and only one remained. Not just any kind of 'me', but myself, as a baby, looking me in the eyes and smiling. A very warm smile with an intense, almost understanding stare.
After that, I woke up.
