Thread: SilverBullet's Newly Revised Key to Lucid Dreaming

So as far as I believe, this technique has scientific merit.

I have to say that the ice cream was a bad example. Because if you are watching someone eat ice cream it isn't going to activate the sense of taste. So how will the same neurons fire?

Or am I just not getting what your saying?

The neurons in your brain that fire when you eat ice cream are the same ones that fire if you are watching someone eat it. The sense of taste itself never comes into the picture.

Basically, as far as your brain is concerned, you are eating the ice cream.

And its not just an example, its how one of the tests was actually done lol.
