Wow. This is very interesting. Thanks for the information. |

Everything requires your attention to exist in dreams. Unfortunately, attention is a limited resource. You can only focus your attention on so much, so that leaves blind spots, much like your blind spots when driving a car. |

I have returned, but I'm not the same
I'm a shadow, a shell, it's no longer a game
Peace is dead, peace is gone
All that remains is a chilling song
Wow Cusp, never thought about this before! but could you please explain a little more detailed and with some examples? I'm afraid that my oh-so-tired brain didn't manage to understand everything properly |

Yes, that's one of them. Practice using the blind spot behind you. Try moving it over stuff, see what happens. But the blind spot needn't be behind you, it could be in front of you in plain sight. I think once you get used to using the blind spot behind you, making one in front of you will make more sense. |

Dreams form through a process I call Archetpal Chaining. Everything in a dream is an archetype, the sum total of associations to any given topic. As you focus your attention on something in the dream, it begins to manifest it's varied association. For example, the beach could manifest life guards, bikinis, dogs catching frisbees, sharks. This will continue until one of those manifested items captures your attention, becomes your new focal point or seed, and then it begins to manifest it's associations. So from the beach example, two likely manifested attention traps (for me at least) would be the bikinis or the sharks. Changing focus from the beach to the shark will dramatically change the dream from a relaxing beach dream to a potential nightmare (depending on how you feel about sharks) |

Thanks a lot for the idea, it's a great base to work on. Dreams are just life without sensual input, so what you see is what you expect, from memories, imagination, etc. So for example when you imagine a lightsaber existing in the back side of the room you are in, it will form there. |

Very interesting, for sure gonna dwell in my thoughts for some time ^^ |
