THE LONG NIGHT'S GUIDE
Dream Signs and Spiritual Progress in Buddhist PracticeBy WILLIAM ALTIGLength1h 3m
About this audiobook
A practical spiritual guide for listeners who want to understand what dreams reveal about inner life, conduct, and awakening. In The Long Night’s Guide, William Altig combines Buddhist wisdom with clear, actionable practice to help you distinguish helpful dream signs from confusion, fear, and repetition. From auspicious visions to diagnostic patterns, from purification dreams to warning dreams, this audiobook offers a simple method: what to notice, what it may mean, and what to do within the next 24 hours. Rooted in classical Buddhist sources and adapted for modern listeners, it is not a dream dictionary or fortune system, but a disciplined manual for transformation. Each section includes prompts and integration steps you can apply immediately. If your dreams feel spiritually charged, morally urgent, or mysteriously recurring, this guide offers a grounded path forward: less superstition, more clarity, and practice that matures into compassionate action.
