– Elder, I am troubled by some bad dreams...
– When you see a bad dream, never examine what you
saw, how you saw it, if you are guilty, how much you are to blame. The evil
one, because he could not tempt you during the day, comes at night. Sometimes
God also allows us to tempt us in sleep, so that we may see that the old man
has not yet died. Other times, the enemy approaches a person in his sleep and
presents him with various dreams, so that he may be distressed when he wakes
up. Therefore, do not pay any attention to it; make your cross, cross your
pillow, put the cross and a couple of icons on the pillow and say the prayer
until you fall asleep. The more you pay attention, the more the enemy will come
to bother you!!!
