I had an enlightening philosophical discussion that I forgot >_>

It was with a bald man that kind of resembled Dr. Phil. All I remember is that it was about beauty, the concept of beauty and how beauty is perceived in society. What sucks, is that I remember it being enlightening at the time of the dream, but I couldn't remember it in the morning. Anyone else had problems like this? Is there a way to remember stuff like this?

Maybe your brain was just spewing random sentences that you found enlightening? I've had a dream once where some guy was talking about cheese, but I received it as the greatest wisdom It really feels stupid when you wake up.

I just had a dream like that where it seemed like the greatest information ever and I just stood there like wow. That was cool I really need to remember it, and I repeated whatever it was to myself a couple of times. Then When I woke up all I remembered was thinking that it was the greatest conversation ever.

siiigh... Until they invent dream recording technology, these peices of wisdom may be lost forever.

I'm siding with Mertruve here. The same way your brain generates images when you dream, it can also generate emotions or abstract thoughts, with no real cause. A few weeks ago I had a dream (not lucid, but I was getting close) where I was laughing; the 1st part was about T-shirt with "funny" pictures or words on them (I don't remember them, and I think there was nothing in fact); then it was about a "joke" that made me laugh even more. I woke up just after, so I remembered the exact words: It was about some musicians, and the guy talking to me said "the only good music they could do, is with the ropes around their numbered necks". (In French rope and guitare string are the same word) (I don't know what the "numbered" could be) So, OK, there was some pun here... but the hilarity I had in the dream was disproportionate. I was more like laughing like an idiot when drunk. I say don't worry about lost wisdom; it was probably just the feeling of wisdom activated in some brain center, not a real one.

Its still in your subcantious (If the conversation actuly happened, and you dint just have a false memory). I say this alot, but use self-Hypnosis, to find it
