I often have a dream about a lion, in my dream, I am being stalked by a lion and as the lion stalks me he is getting closer and closer to me. When my back is turned the lion takes the opportunity to spring up and attack me. I see it from the corner of my eye and turn quickly killing it with a knife.
I often have wondered what this dream meant. I was reading the Gospel according to Thomas and read, Jesus said, Blessed is the lion which becomes man when consumed by man, and cursed is the man whom the lion consumes and the lion becomes man.
After reading this in Thomas, I think my dream means the lion is representative of the nature of the beast and worldliness. The dream demonstrates how worldly affairs can sneak up on us and if we are not careful consume us taking us away from the Truth. Seeing the lion and killing it with a knife means to be ever watchful and aware that evil lurks everywhere and be ever ready to ward it off with the Truth when the moment comes.
