Or you may be trying very hard to find "patterns" in your life, and that way you are much more likely to notice 22, 222, and 2222 appearing, than to notice 0, 239, 4938, or 239819. |

Yes, because I have experienced it.
Yes, because of others' experience.
Maybe, but I have to experience it for myself.
Maybe, but it has to be scientifically proven.
No, it's impossible.
I think you don't study, what telepathy really is if you think "to leave your mind to enter someone elses subconscious" is considering impossible. Actually being in someones mind is possible. Do this in dreams and it can lead to shared dreaming. One thing leads to the next like a chain reaction. And never say never, because scientists proved lucid dreaming, and i think shared dreaming is next, now that i am seeing more experiments going on at the internet and promoting it, also needing people to volunteer. Google "shared dreaming experiments" and you'll see. |

Hi Jacob, |
|
Unfortunately that would be extremely ineffective as we would have no idea ass to how both dreamers will interpret the dream and the password. Here is a more appropriate test |
|
I think the real reason is that here on dreamviews when someone new pops in they decide to express their heart and soul as to how they believe that dream sharing is impossible. Over time they realise that denying its existence is just as ingnorant as stating its existence without evidence. Therefore unlike in the spirituality section we have all come to a general agreement. We are rarely trying to convince others here that their views on the subject are wrong. On the other hand go the the R/S section and the debates will never stop because no one wants to admit they are wrong. |
|
This is nonsense. There is nothing to "interpret" if one is given a simple assignment to remember a word and write it down after waking up. |
|
Oh please. It is on the shared dreamers to prove their case and show evidence for it's existence. A simple "me and my friend did it a million times" or "we gave passwords to one another" isn't good enough. The fact of the matter is: There is no study in the world, not by Celia Green, or Stephen LaBerge, or any other respected dream/lucid dream researcher, which has shown evidence for the existence of shared dreaming. |
|
Your knowledge on the subject is obviously minute, firstly by stating that both dreamers will interpret the dream exactly the same you are stating that you as a disbeliever know exactly how the brain forms dreams and how it would go about sharing. If two people in a room both hear a sound they will probably interpret it differently in their dream. Who or what is telling you that this is different in a dream. How do you know how much control we would have in a shared dream. You act like your some kind of scholar on the subject but you really have no opinion on why or why not this could even work. Were here to assess different ways in which dream sharing could be possible not to listen to some ignorant idiot who has no idea about the complexity of neuroscience. |
|
This is ridiculous. People on an internet forum claiming they exchanged "passwords" in a dream is not the same as a controlled study. I can't believe you are making this comparison. |
|
I had to laugh after reading this. Really. If Subject A is unable to pass one single word to Subject B in a dream, then it is very unlikely that they are sharing one and the same dream. They are most likely simply dreaming of one another. I am able to recall clear conversations I have with dream characters, sometimes even word for word, and I'm not the only one, yet you are telling me it would be difficult for the shared dreamers to remember one single password? What an excuse, oh my God. |
|
And yet you completely fail to see the point being made. Wether it is unlikely or not we have no idea of how dream sharing could possibly work. We don't know if the dreamers can communicate, wether they interpret the dream the same, where the shared dream is held etc etc. |
|
First we need to know if it is possible at all, and then worry about the "how". My study would actually show evidence for it beyond a reasonable doubt. A study in which two people, separated from one another with no physical means of communication, recall the same dream, and recall a password. This would confirm the existence of shared dreaming, if not the existence of extraordinary telepathic ability. |
|
Let me ask you this, why are you here?. What difference does it make discussing if it is real or not. You came here to justify your own idea and not to discuss at all. Currently we are on an internet forum discussing a phenonemon that is hardly going to be proved due to our opinions. With that in mind, knowing that you have made no contribution to the topic surely you can see that these threads are never about discussing if its true or not ( because we just don't know) but about discussing the how. Indeed these threads are essentially useless, what is more useless is your posts trying to convince people it should be easy to prove while you or I know nothing about it. |

Very well, but this type of scenario is something entirely different from the descriptions of shared dreams that DreamViews members are putting out. When I am reading about shared dreaming adventures on this forum, they are supposedly "shared" in the true sense of the word. |
|
BTW, "Nafterschlipot" is an awesome word, I swear. |
|
Yes, the actual condition of the shared dream, including perception, is often left out of the DV formula. Also getting little play are ideas like the possibility that we could all be sharing dreams all the time, but simply cannot recognize each other (and by extension shared dreaming becomes a much simpler act of paying attention, rather than a special mystical power), I've grown used to it, though I (and a few others, like Shadowofwind) will insert this stuff when I get a chance. I'm not sure if anyone notices, but what the hell, I tried! |
|
I have been sharing dreams with family members since I was a little girl! It usually involved my dad, but my mom and brother were sometimes there, too. As I grew older these shared dreams diminished, although I do have some precognitive dreams every now and then. |
