Dear questioner, Master Ali Saei
Tracking code: #Q-3518

Peace be upon you, respected teacher. In my dream, I saw myself entering a place to do something. I didn’t like it there, and I particularly noticed that the glass in its door was broken. I then thought, “Well, it’s a good thing I made that excuse and went looking for somewhere better.” I even saw a woman sitting in front of a house, and I was about to ask if I could use her home, but she wouldn’t let me in either. Could this be connected to a moral failing such as pride, vanity, or thinking myself superior to others? I’ve been thinking about this for several days, but I can’t make sense of the dream. Thank you.

The essence and first answer at a glance (60-word summary)

To understand a dream and free oneself from moral failings, one must seek God’s pleasure and turn to Him with one’s needs. A profound inner transformation—giving up hope in oneself and in anyone besides God, and placing one’s hope in Him alone—is the way forward.

We must move towards the door to which we are summoned—a door that is always open to us. We must set aside our own desires and make His good pleasure our own, content with whatever He wills. A fundamental transformation must take place: we must lose hope in ourselves and all else, and make Him alone our hope and our longing.
