I thought I was somewhat following you until that last sentence or two then you completely lost me and made me utterly confused. Could you make what you said simpler? |

Well I start from the premise that our dreams are the manifestation of our subconscious. |

Let's see yeah some people also have the idea that the Dreams are the manifestation of the subconscious so I am following you with that. Now lets see |

That is true |

Saying quantum physics explains cognitive processes is just like saying geology explains jurisprudence.
If we assume that the people we meet in dreams are really just our brain's models of the behavioral patterns of those people in real life, this sort of makes sense. If any of you read the Scientific American article "I Am a Strange Loop" a while back, the author (I forget his name) theorized that people actually have functional models of THEMSELVES, as well as everyone else, in their brains. In your dream, you could be 'running' your model of yourself, thus giving you the impression that 'you' are making independent decisions just like all the other dream characters. In that sense, it's actually backwards from what you would think - your SUBconscious is 'running' the program down there, while you sit above and watch it happen. Your input, which seems to act as your subconscious normally would, is probably simply your will vaguely affecting the course of the dream. |
