The detail within my lucid dreams are incredible!

I need to share this experience with everyone because I find it almost unbelievable. Often when I lucid dream, I fly long distances and look down at the terrain on the ground. I fly over many cities, country side, etc. The thing that amazes me is that if I zoom in on these places, the detail is absolutely incredible. For example, if I fly over a neighborhood, the detail is so unique that I cannot believe that my mind is making it up. Each house or drive way or yard or city or whatever has so much specific unique characteristics that I feel like I am looking at a real place that I've never been to here on the Earth. I'm talking about details such as shadows on the ground caused by the sun in the back ground, streets and neighborhoods that look like were planned out by city planners or architects, children playing. Each house having their own unique characteristics such as different sized yards, swimming pools, etc. And it is all there instantly. My mind doesn't seem to have to work hard to render it like a slow computer would render a detailed picture. Either the mind is so incredibly powerful or I am actually remotely viewing these places in the real world. I wake up in amazement. One time I had a lucid dream that I was driving in a car down various streets through different towns. Each town and area was totally different and unique and it goes on for miles and miles. And nothing repeats like the detail in a video game would. I could zoom in on detail that was breath taking such as blades of grass, plants on the ground, individual bricks within the mortar of brick buildings, etc, etc. And the same with people that I might see within the terrain of these places, walking around, etc. The color and style of their clothes, a belt buckle, their shoes, etc. Extraordinary detail and all of it being rendered before my dreaming eyes instantly.

Has anyone else noticed this? If not, I encourage you to pay attention to the detail the next time you are in a lucid dream. Then report back here about your experience.

How can an entire world of detail be made up instantly by my mind?

i have had lucid dreams like that before, pretty amazing..

you ask how can our minds make something up that great... because its the power of the mind...

my dreams tend to not be very detailed until i actually pay closer attention.

Yeah totally

My favourite as an arstist is walking through an art gallery. Each picture being displayed in all its granduer. Hard to recall ... again recall becomes a problem, how do we remember all the detail of our dreams when they are som complex ??

FunK

yeah they are pretty amazing. there are theories regarding the vividness of a dream like yuri's theory of dream optimization of something where what you focus on suggests it is something until you focus on it. It pretty interesting. on the other hand, I would rather believe that its the power of the mind. your brain can do wonderful things.

actually, I remember a dream I had where I was on an island, and every blade of grass, the detail of the dirt was amazing. I wonder too how it's possible.

It's because the power of the mind is incredible. When you look down on the earth and expect to see details, you focus on seeing details, your mind creates them for you. This is why it's to important to stabilize lucid dreams right from the get-go, as I'm sure you've heard from so many tutorials. When you demand more from the dream, your dream gives you more.

And yes, your brain just creates it right on the spot, instantly. If you wanted to see certain kinds of details, your mind would start making those, too.
