A dream about my grandson. Is there a meaning to it?

Question

Some days ago I had the following dream about my five-year old grandson Aidan.

I dreamt that I was on my death bed with my grandson holding my hand and begging his poppa not to go. I told him that I would always be with him and never leave his side. I died and went to heaven. After being there for what seem eternity God asked me why I was always so sad. I explained to him that I missed my grandson and wished I could be with him. God said if I really missed him so much, he would let me go back to earth in spirit form, but that only my grandson would be able to see and communicate with me. The catch was that I would have to stay on the earth until the end of time. I said okay. As the dream progressed I saw my grandson age from a five year old child to an aged man. During all those years we spoke constantly. My grandson grew to be a kind and gracious person. But like all things the day came when he became gravely ill and passed away. At his grave site I mourned for him but I knew he was now in a better place. As I walked away from the grave I knew that until the end of time I would be so alone. Then I felt a small hand in my and a small voice say “I’ll never leave you poppa.”

Answer 1

Well it probably was just a dream that was caused by something you watched on t.v. or just a thought you were thinking about. I know it probably sounds stupid but whatever you were thinking about right before you go to sleep is usually what you dream about. So you were probably just thinking about your grandson right before you feel asleep.

Answer 2

Sometimes the conditioned soul imagines that his father or grandfather has again come in the form of his son or grandson. In this way he feels the happiness one sometimes feels in a dream, and the conditioned soul sometimes takes pleasure in such mental concoctions.

PURPORT

Due to ignorance of the real existence of the Lord, the conditioned soul imagines many things. Influenced by fruitive activity, he comes together with his relatives, fathers, sons and grandfathers, exactly as straws gather together in a moving stream. In a moment the straws are thrown everywhere, and they lose contact. In conditional life, the living entity is temporarily with many other conditioned souls. They gather together as family members, and the material affection is so strong that even after a father or grandfather passes away, one takes pleasure in thinking that they return to the family in different forms. Sometimes this may happen. but in any case the conditioned soul likes to take pleasure in such concocted thoughts.
