No prob
It’s very good that you look at these stories from different angles. But Alexandra David-Neel was a highly respected mystic, not some ordinary wannabe-spiritual person. Some even called her “the most astonishing woman of our time”. She lived with shamans, hermits and other wise people, who learned her the secret teachings of Tibet (which include for instance materialization techniques, OBEing, telepathy and even tantric sex ). She was even the first woman to become a Tibetan lama, which says quite a lot I guess.
Here’s a short description of her life: mysteriouspeople.com/Alex_David-Neel.htm
The description of God as described in the Bible is indeed full of contradictions and such. This has probably to do with some major influences on the Bible’s authors (especially the ones of the first few books) by other civilizations and their Gods. More specifically, there are many Babylonian and Sumerian influences to be found in the first five books of the Bible, simply because those parts were written during the Babylonian Captivity. Thus you get a mixture of aspects of different Gods, now placed in a whole new culture, the Hebrew one. The original “man-like” Gods became alienated from their true origins, and after many centuries, only a picture of one single abstract God is all that remains left.
Yes you can argue about all this, but quite frankly this isn’t the point. As someone else already said, the existence of God, no matter how He is depicted, doesn’t rely on the Bible. Those are just books filled with words. If you truly want to know about God, you have to search for Him yourself. Search deep inside yourself and follow your intuition. Only your own experience is what really matters. Those holy books (and religious practices) such as the Bible are only guides. They can help you to understand some fundamental principles about humanity, but it’s always you who have to walk the Path in search for God, if you know what I mean.
Now, back on the topic. Bringing back objects from a dream is really not so different as psychokinesis for instance: in both cases you use your thoughts, concentration and perhaps visualization to inflict a physical effect. I think psychokinesis is a lower level of materialization: your thoughts influence the behaviour of air molecules in such way that they’re able to influence certain objects. Materialization is a further condensation of atoms in a certain way, given by your thoughts, thus resulting in an actually visible object. Lately there’s been some studies which show some slight evidence that psychokinesis might exist after all. IF this phenomenon should indeed exist, then the idea of bringing back objects from dreams doesn’t seem so fantastic anymore. It’s just psychokinesis on a stronger level and from a different perspective.
