We’re witnessing an awesome occurrence: the ability of the mind to turn pure information into a dynamic multidimensional reality.

We’re in bed, asleep-yet our minds are able to flawlessly create new people and settings and have them all interact effortlessly in four dimensions. How is it possible for the brain to do this? How are all the components of the experience fabricated from scratch? While dreaming, we’re not observing events and perceiving stimuli. How could this tapestry of enormously complex interactions and scenarios be the result of nothing but random electrical discharges? In dreams, we’re not just watching an “external world” and passively imprinting memories in our neural circuitry. If you think of dreaming as associated with a higher sense of awareness it is not uncommon that dreams actually can predict the future. A dream is an instantaneous, nonstop narrative that often seems as real as real life itself. Dreaming about the future and it comes true Dreaming about future events and psychic dreams Dreaming about the future is connected to our own subconscious mind. True, dreams often contain a mix of emotions and things we have previously experienced, but in dreams, there are often people, faces, and interactions that the dreamer has never experienced before. They must likewise be far more than the activation of random memories already contained in the brain’s neurocircuitry. Turning information into a multidimensional tapestryĭreams are far more than the spontaneous, random firing of neurons that some insist they are. The result of this magnificent orchestration is our never-ending ability to experience sensations in a four-dimensional world. While there is a popular myth that if you hit the ground in your dream you will die in real life, it simply is not true. During both dreams and waking hours, our minds collapse probability waves to generate a physical reality that comes complete with a functioning body. 1 Dreams About Falling Dreams about falling from great heights are very common. 3) Lucid Dreams Lucid dreams occur when you realize you are dreaming. 2) False Awakening Dreams I know this has happened to me several times in the morning.

Whether awake or dreaming, we are experiencing the same process even if it produces qualitatively different realities. 1) Daydream Daydreaming is classified as a level of consciousness between sleep and wakefulness. But there are interesting commonalities that give us clues as to how our consciousness operates. Since the realms of dreams and wakeful perception are usually classified separately-with only one of them regarded as “real”-they’re rarely part of the same discussion. But you might not have suspected that this same process of fashioning a seemingly external 3-D reality is the one underlying dreams. Dreams and everyday reality are the same processĪs we go about our lives, we take for granted the way our minds put everything together because the process is effortless, and its underlying mechanisms are baked-in, hidden, and automatic.
