Thread: Dream logic during WL... Is it possible?

You're right, drugs are not a good example to explain it due to they could lead to misinterpretations, I didn't mean to look for any drug or supplements or whatever external to the body in order to do that since we already have our own, true and safe chemicals (seratonin, melatonin, etc.) working inside. Drugs just infringe and possibly damage that system.

I was wondering about the mechanisms that the brain uses to produce such imagery combining both symbols and rational thinking in one single scene. I think it's called something like 'Abstract thinking' or so. When I said that everything had perfect sense to me about that imagery in my mind, I meant that i.e. 'the yellow square' at the beginning was something more rational, something like 'The man who always smile in the crowd' (It's the closest example I can find) and every element in the scene had its rational source when I went to sleep. Then, my thoughts stopped being translated into words and I started to think in an different but rational way, where a lot of things were said in just two or three alterations of the scene. I think it could be part of the basic structure how dreams are built. I'm still wondering how could it be possible to reach that level of thinking, without words and only with imagery, in a rational way during waking life.
