The brain is complex and science has only just scratched the surface when it comes to understanding it. We’re not consciously aware of most of what are bodies are doing on a daily basis and it’s the same with the brain. I believe it’s all still connected and “one” even if we’re not aware of some of what’s happening in the background. I see dreaming as a little sneak peek behind that curtain. These processes aren’t just going on at night though, you can observe the random and spontaneous nature of the mind during day dreaming, whilst being creative and during meditation. You can see first hand how random thoughts and images seem to appear out of nowhere when you observe them like a spectator. When you really start thinking deeply about it you arrive at that big old question, “What actually is me? Who am I and am I really in control of the things I do?” It’s fascinating.
