This is a state that you are in where you are not quite in deep sleep but you aren’t fully awake either. It is a place between the unconscious and consciousness. It is a state where you can be taught great and marvelous things if you go to bed with a desire and question in your mind. When you pray and ask these questions, you will be shown and taught things may be in dreams. There are many different type of spiritual gifts, and dreams is one of them.
