Thread: Why don't we realize that we are dreaming when miracles seems normal :)

Hello

all of us noticed that we can't realize that we are dreaming, even when we do miracles and found ridicolous things in dreams.

for example you can fly in your NON-LUCID dream. and it seems very normal for you (in the dream). why you don't think, "OMG I can Fly Naturally? That's For sure A Dream."

you can also kill someone very easily for nothing maybe for your shoes lol. why don't think, "I Became a murderer for nothing?.." and realize that you're dreaming?

you can find dancing fruits, talking animals...

SO WHY WE DON'T THINK CRITICALLY IN OUR DREAM?.

WHY we accept anything that our subconsciouncess show us?

Where is the BRAIN ( Awakening brain ) When we are Asleep?

Thanks for reading. and sorry for the grammar/vocabulary Mistakes.

Its difficult to realize we are dreaming when all of these things happen because in a dream nearly all of your brain is active, except the logic center. Because there is no logic to control our dreams many crazy unrealistic things can happen. Without logic anything makes sense.

What sugar said. The logic center of your brain shuts off therefore you don't think logical.

There's also a statistic that 90% of all behavior is habit. Since we are usually even less aware in dreams, maybe that's an explanation too.

well said sugarglider11

The logic center shutting down makes sense. Could it also be that we see so many bizarre things in movies that when we see bizarre things in our dreams, we don't question them?

I wonder if lucid dreaming was more common in societies 1000 years ago when there wasn't so much imagery available.

Wait.

if our Logic center shuts off, why we know our names, what to say and what to do and what don't. why we remember our friends, family.. and why we talk and think logically .. etc?

it's about how aware on real life and how you live it.
if you live real life being manipulated by your emotions, thinkings.... then you will do the same in dreams.
if you are not aware in real life, then you will not aware on dreams, doesn't care how bizarre it is...

hey i found the link to the video i was thinking of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RRnGbn9QZo its a discovery channel series called The Human Body: Pushing the Limits, pretty cool. anyway, if our logic center shuts off when we sleep why isn't there a way or medicine to turn it on? like use some chemical or electricity or something to wake it up?

Knowing names isn't logic.

And We don't actually think logically at all. It may sometimes seem like it if you have for example something memorised in you head which makes you do something like maths, that's just an example, it works the same sort of way for talking to someone. But I can't be bothered explaining that one.

I'm very interested! I would love to find out more.
me too, I need more detailed info
