Thread: Impossible Ideas in Dreams, beyond the 5 senses

Sounds a lot like what you might experience on LSD, aka, the complete unleashing of your subconscience upon you. Never done LSD, but I've read accounts of people experiencing things very similar to what you describe. The brain is an incredible thing, so much of it we don't understand or experience in normal, waking life.

I recal a LD from junior high or early high school were I saw a "new color." It was not any color or combination of colors that exists, but I saw it very clearly. Now, when I remember I can't recall how it looked, can't imagine the color. It was such a cool experience.

That sounds brilliant! I'd love to get to see a completely new colour. I'd imagine that I'd be pretty emotionally overwhelmed if I saw one in my dreams.

i remeber in one of my dreams knowing what was the existence of god and knowing what was before time and the creation of existence, like having mind that comprehends everything, thinking thoughts beyond what a human would possibly ever know.

in the dream i felt like a genius but when i woke up i thought.. what a stupid dream!!

I've split myself into two consciousnesses before. It was like I was in two places at once, sensing two different environments at once. It was a very strange feeling that even now, I can't really imagine or describe

I'm not sure I've ever had a new sense/color experience, but every so often I will come up with some amazing idea in a dream, something absolutely reality shattering that, the moment I wake, vanishes. And I know it's not just some illusory idea, but that it was actually logical and just pure genius. It's like finding out there's some amazing treasure really out there, actually having the map, then losing it 5 minutes later.

I've always wondered what a new color would look like...

Yea, I get things like that too. When I wake up, my mind cannot comprehend the idea or something, so it throws it out.

I've sensed new colours as well. They may be from outside the visual spectrum, like near infrared or ultraviolet. Ultraviolet is especially plausible as there are mammals (cats) that can see UV.
