The monks have probably coming much closer to the core-theories or answears about all these so called "supernatural" stuff about life. Dont you agree with me that science at least need take a much bigger step in to the spiriual teachings, and maybe therefore have to start rely more on the counts of peoples experiences?

Well back to the main topic then There is probably no kind of scientific evidences in the world acording to the name of science, that either shared dreaming works or ever have worked, or if dreams always occur from the brain itself. But that just why this question arises I believe, at least it is for me. So I would absolute not claim that either shared dreaming or whether dreams could occur from some where else is true in any way. BUT, I get curious when I read those personal experiences people have when it comes to shared dreaming or that they claim that they have seen the future in dreams etc. What if sharing dreams really is possible then? So what do YOU, think about these gathered storys you probably heard of?? I dont know if a real scientist would find it interesting even if he would be told about 50 unlikely events like these. but that's my impression.
Actually there have been a lot of studies into telepathy and shared dreaming. Nothing has ever been exclusively proved, but there have been studies that have returned values that cannot be explained through chance alone. The scientific world is on these things more than you can imagine. A large reason why a lot of these studies never get started or come to light is because generally studies on esoteric concepts aren't well received (mainly by ignorant other scientists) and can shed bad light onto the authors. It's shame that it is this way but at least there are people trying, because every time some controversial study does produce good results it makes the rest of the scientific community more lenient towards them and we can get a step closer to pure science and a more accurate theory.
