What is the significance of dream?
उत्तर
What is a dream? We have strange, funny and even frightening dreams as we sink into sleep. The brain can’t think or act consciously when we fell asleep. Some dreams are believable, and could happen when we are awake. But tnost of them are absurd. Dreams are important because they help us to sleep through noise even. Some doctors say that one’s dreams can suggest solutions to one’s problem or tell the future. But this is not wholly true.
