Hey everyone, |

Last time I was on dreamviews in a dream I got super pissed and yelled, "why am I sitting here wasting my time on the internet when I could be out having a lucid dream!" And became lucid at once. Then I picked up my monitor and decided I was gonna throw it through a cars windshield. |

157 is a prime number. The next prime is 163 and the previous prime is 151, which with 157 form a sexy prime triplet. Taking the arithmetic mean of those primes yields 157, thus it is a balanced prime.

Dream world isn't the same as the real world |

This is based on the theory that this world is a dream as well, that they are both the same, it just seems different to us when we sleep. I dont believe in this, I just want to try it out and see if it actually works. Cant laugh at this or simply say it wont work without actually trying it. |

Why not? Can't use reasoning to tell you that flying off a building in this world till you try it, right? |

Even if this is a dream world the messsage would not show up. How would the message show up in this reality (weather it is actualy "real" or not) from the dream. I am trying to think of a good analogy but you will realize that it doesn't make any sense if you think about it. |

I sometimes have false awakenings in which I write down the dream that I just had. When I actually wake up, there is nothing written there. Why would the forum be any different? |

Yeah, you gotta stick a USB cable up your butt, not all that comfortable. |

Actually I'm asleep right now. |

Let's try to keep the derision to a minimum...shall we? |

I don't think its rediculous just this is a dumb way of testing it. No matter what results you get on any test you wont ever be able to prove that this world is not real. Just different than you thought it was before maby. |

Come on! There's no way that this could actually work. What would keep other things that you do in dreams, from happening in real life if this was true. If you kill a bunch of people, you would have the risk of it happening in real life. You could wake up and find that you've killed a bunch of people and are now going to prison. You could have sex with your math teacher just to find the next day that it really happened! None of this stuff happens in the real world, so why would it be different just because it's on the internet? Before looking at all the stuff that happens to come true in a dream, look at all the stuff that doesn't. There are such things as coincidence. |

There seems to me an important difference between Aquanina's experience and the original post's proposed experiment. In Aquanina's case, information from the waking world possibly crossed over into a dream. In the experiment, information created in a dream would have to cross over into the waking world. |
|
Why does it matter which way it came from? If we're proposing that information can travel from waking life to dream life, why wouldn't it be able to go both directions? I don't see one direction being any more logical than the other. She didn't say that she had seen the text or email before she went to sleep, so it wasn't all in her mind, because her mind hadn't seen it yet. |

I believe it could be posible for things from the waking world to effect out dream worlds and I think it is theoreticly posible for it to go the other way but not like this. |
|
But that's different. While it seems unlikely, and more like those things are just coincidences, there are feasible reasons why that could happen. Like some kind of psychic link between people. If shared dreaming is possible(I'm a doubter, but I keep an open mind about it) then I think those things would be possible because of the same mechanisms. |

I agree that if the dreaming mind can pick up on certain things from the waking world, then the dreaming mind could potentially effect certain things in the waking world. But I think it would be very limited, simply because of the way the physical world operates. A dream could not effect the waking world in the way the OP suggests because computers and the internet are set up to work through specific actions in the waking reality. |
|
What is an example of knowing something in the real world, entering the dream world with that knowledge and then having it effect the real world? |
|
I don't know of any examples either. I am skeptical of dreams being anything other than created by and existing in the human brain. |

Well there have been research studies that support the hypothesis that a person who is having an OBE can affect certain electronic equipment. There were cases where they would set up these meters, similar to the kind they use with ghost hunting I think, and have them completely isolated in a room with nothing to cause interference with the reading. Then the person a completely separate room would try to project into the room with the electronic equipment and cause it to give a reading. It worked numerous times that this equipment would pick up on their presence. Again, this is a research study that I read about while researching authentic evidence for OBEs and I will try to provide a link if I can find it again. I think it was a really long pdf file that I've got bookmarked somewhere. |
