While there is no truly standard belief about this among the different indigenous peoples, the "timeless time" was explained this way on Wikipedia's page:

"They believe that every person in an essential way exists eternally in the Dreaming. This eternal part existed before the life of the individual begins, and continues to exist when the life of the individual ends."

How important is the dreaming to aboriginal social organisation and culture?

The Dreaming is very significant to Aboriginal spirituality because envelopes the most essential aspects of their society such as creation, history, ancestry, folklore, laws, rituals, ceremonies, culture and philosophy. The Dreaming is a never ending aspect of Aboriginal life which looks at the past and the present to be able to foresee the future. The Dreaming is what makes the identity of an Aboriginal person. The land to which a person belongs to is what supplies the link with the people and The Dreaming. Dreaming stories contain a lot of meaning; the truth from a story is what sets the law for the present. Some dreaming stories portray what consequences a bad doing may bring onto a person and what the future may hold for all of us. Dreaming stories give meaning to human life. To Aboriginal people The Dreaming was and is a very significant part of their life because The Dreaming has molded them into who they as individuals and a society have become. All their rules, laws, way of life and humanitarian way of been is shaped by the stories and experiences that The Dreaming has provided to the Aboriginal people. By: carolina.s
