To the best of my knowledge; it is all theory. However the study of dreams is, more or less, a theoretical science. There is simply (as of now) no way of proving many theories about the (non)physicality of dreams, based on our limited resources. |

Very true. I don't know alot about dream theory, but as far as representation in our actions, (like Onei said) i find that whenever I do something horrible in a dream, it fixes itself up rather quickly. Now, the real quiestion is, why do humans get so curious about the taboo? |

You do this every fucking time.
No sweat.
No tears.
No guilt.
You do this every fucking time.

First off thanks for the response! Guess I'm not that far off base! I really appreciated your input. Hope you don't mind more questions. |

I understand what you mean by that, and I didn't mean to come across as judgmental. If people want to go through the curiosity of that then that's great. That’s their choice. |

Specifically what makes you conclude that dreams are not just in one's own head? |

I have had a number of experiences \ interactions in my dreams that lead me to believe that it is more than just my own construct that I am viewing. |

Oh Ok. I understand now. Sorry my mind didn't read what you quoted from me. |

I read the whole thing. Don't patronize me. It was unclear weather it was a flase awakening. |

Wow I got distracted. I love how the mind can focus on something and then forget details. Like why I originally was inspired to ask the initial questions in the opening post. I meant to post this up much sooner. So yesterday morning I had the following dream; |

One time in a lucid dream I asked a DC if he was self aware. He said "yes". I asked "Well are you really truly intelligent and conscious or are you just the imitation of intelligence?" I don't remember his response but a different voice that just entered my head from nowhere said "Kevin, they are all self-aware as long as you continue their existence." |

I know what your problem is, your subconciousness is cleverer than you are. |

No offense taken. I really enjoy conversations of this nature. The examples I gave really aren't the best. I wasn't intending to be a spokesman for shared dreams. I haven't had any experience to prove those existences to myself, etc, nor do I believe the dream about my partner was a shared one. (and in the 7 years we've been together I can't say I've actually had a vivid, definite shared dream with him, only minor coincidences that line up between our dreams when we talk about them... so statistically I guess you can say that it is improbable) |

I've just read this thread through, and I have a lot of respect for you as a random internet person. You seem reasonable and good, I hope that you do continue posting here and that we can share our views. |

Very interested in this discussion. I do tend to hope that there is some kind of interconnectedness between beings that could be acheived in dreams. Maybe it's due to reading too much Carlos Castenada! (lol) |
