Thread: Dreams forsee the future.

My dreams of the future happen like deja vu and they are the exact sequence of events (nothing grandiose, just interactions like those that occur everyday) that I dreamed of. For instance, I'm seated at a table set with food, somebody says something to the person across from them and the person next to him turns his head, and laughs. Exact sequence of events and I remember where and when I had the dream, last dream of the morning before getting up, sleeping in a friends room when he was away on a trip. This has happened to me since I was young, and I asked my mom about it when I was a child, and remember the short conversation we had. I'm not talking about day dreams about potheads or dreaming of clouds of ash, or a volcano and then a world event grounds the airplanes in England. I'm not talking about suggestive imagery in a dream, and then reading about something in the newspaper the next day. I'm saying that I have dreamed something that comes to pass in my life in exact detail and not once but since I can remember sporadically. If that is unacceptable in terms of modern physics and modern concepts of rationality and reality then I don't know. This humble member of the modern world says, "back to the drawing board." Which is the same drawing board that people have been going back to since they started saying "I know how something works." How do modern physicists tackle the concept of dreams in their field, anyway? Do they have a discreet branch of dream particles that they are in the process of studying? What do the scientists (besides maybe CG Jung) have to say about the Australian Aborigine's concept of "Dream Time"? So far a lot of what I read in this Forum is a bunch of people, no offense to the inquisitive and intelligent folks that participate, counting how many LDs they have like they can measure expertise in this phenomenon, (which maybe you can) and that that somehow matters. This, in my opinion, is a highly spiritual area of interest, and has a lot to say about the very nature of reality, the composition of the human being, etc. This DV thing has been a good tool, don't get me wrong, and I've experienced some interesting things in my dreams by utilizing the techniques and tutorials. But, the mentality of the threads are sometimes disconcerting. Any orthodoxy seems to have this effect on any raw unexplored territory. Double edged sword. Discover the new world--spead disease and murder the inhabitants, strip off the precious resources and leave it poor and beleaguered.

Nice rant! Must've woke up on the wrong side of the bed.
