Rajiv is my best friend. He lives in Pune. I got a job in a bank in Mumbai and settled there. My wife is a house maker. We have a two year old son, Sunil. Rajiv had been a brilliant person since childhood. Now, he is owner of a mobile application company. He still develops many innovative apps by himself.
I had been dreaming of becoming an astronaut since childhood. Of course the dream could not be fulfilled due to various reasons. But from time to time, I dream of being an astronaut, and my dream breaks when I'm about to take a ride in space. I mean, even in a dream, my dream is not fulfilled.
Once I had some work in Pune. With family I went to Rajiv's house. We were sitting in a room chatting at night after our families slept.
Rajiv suddenly remembered something and said, "Hey Vinit, you dreamed of becoming an astronaut? Right?"
"Yes," I said.
Remembering something, he got up and walked over to the laptop and said, "Give me your mobile phone. Is it Android phone having infrared?"
"Yes," I said.
Now I was happy that I would get some great app for free. Till today I had received many wonderful and useful free apps from Rajiv for testing purpose.
Rajiv installed an app in my mobile via USB cable from his laptop and gave it back to me and said, "Hey, thanks to you that I got you to test this app. Once this app comes in the market there will be a revolution! I don't get much dreams in night. So I'm choosing my dreamy friend! "
"Means? What's so special in this app?"
"I know you always wanted to become an astronaut. And in your real life the wish is not fulfilled and even in a dream it is not fulfilled? Correct? Then this app is for people like you, my friend!"
"What do you mean? Exactly how to use this app? Tell me! I am eager to know."
"Let me tell you. Turn on this app every night before you sleep and place your mobile on a table or chair near you in such a way that the direction of it's infrared LED is in straight line with your head. It does not record the dream like a VDO but it records waves. If these recorded wave patterns from mobile are projected back on the brain, the same dream can be seen again but not when you are awake but only when you are sleeping."
First I thought he is just joking but recalling his earlier apps, I shredded the thought and continued listening to him.
"When a dream starts and ends in your brain, a very high frequency spike signal called tetra wave is generated which is recognized by this app. If you don't want to wake up from your dream until you want, then you have to hold any favorite object in the dream. As long as you hold that object, your dream will not be broken! Here object means any living or non-living thing. This way you will be able to enjoy your full dream without interruptions!"
"But, How is this possible?"
"Yeah it is possible. I will explain you. When you catch a favorite object in dream, a signal comes out from your brain called rhymal wave. This wave is very intense and will be recognized by the app and the app will send a hexa vital signal from the mobile to your brain which will not let you wake up. Holding your favorite object, you can continue your dream. Once you fulfill all your wishes, you can discard the object. At that time, anti-rhymal signal will generate from your brain which will be recognised by mobile app as an indication that you want to end your dream. Then mobile will send a tatra wave to end your dream."
I was speechless and asked, "Oh, but what if the tetra wave isn't sent by app?"
"It's not going to happen. The brain can't dream more than a certain time. That time varies from person to person. However, a person with a higher imagination power has a higher brain capacity to dream. They can see a dream for longer time!"
Seeing the immense knowledge of my best friend, I couldn't speak further!
I couldn't sleep that night properly due to the thoughts of trying this app at my home. He warned me not to tell this to anyone in my family until the testing of the app becomes a success.
Later, I came back to my home in Mumbai with family.
When I came home from the bank in the evening next day, I was so eager to try the app at night that I ate my dinner but was lost in thoughts and excitement. I behaved as normal as possible not to let my wife doubt about anything.
At night, we both slept on bed with our son Sunil. Before that, I didn't forget to keep the app in mobile running. I placed mobile on a table near bed.
I didn't get any dream that night.
