Yaad piya ki aaye

Passing through the dreams is a song from Akram Ul Haq’s debut album. The song is inspired by this grandmother’s support for other’s dreams and the strength in unconditional love. It captures the power of collective dreaming that helps change societies. The song came to him during the grieving process of his Grandmother’s death. 

After writing the song, Akram came across this idea in Niel Gaiman’s series the Sandman. Vol 2 #18 “A Dream of a Thousand Cats”, is largely about how dreams construct reality and if enough people believe in an idea it manifests into reality. Constructs like equality, justice, fairness essentially exist because people believe in them. 

Akram is fascinated by the idea that humans are connected through the collective unconsciousness and we can travel through each other’s dreams.
