Thread: Why dream experience is fundamental and so very important

Oh, come on, Occi, aren't you being a bit harsh?

Just that someone can't express their feelings doesn't mean they lack them.

Even the dullest of rocks can have sediments, you know.

Sediments? Surely. Sentiments. I think not.



Lo que quiero decir, no es que DiMeglio no tiene emociones pero que nosotros no sabemos cuales son.

If the only communication you have with another being is repetitive newspaper cut outs, you really don't know anything about them.

He has not truly shown himself. And for that reason, we can't physically empathize because to empathize, we must have a hint of knowledge as to what he might be experiencing.

I don't think it's like

he is stuck in an eternal thought loop, unable to grow, unable to change.

(Don't worry, I also said it too before). No sabemos nada sobre el.

¡Aaaah, ya veo! Había entendido otra cosa xD

Then I was empathizing with a projection I made myself, not with the true Frank...

Sorry about that, Frank

Lol. The bingo is there too xD

I also found his blog. It seems he touches other subjects I'm sincerely curious about, like the effects of sensory deprivation or the difference between TV and dreams.

That's so sweet and I totally agree n_n

I find it funny that you went back and crossed that part where you said you had empathy for Dimeglio's growth impediment.

And the wall. What great advertising for his book!

Hmm... I think this changes some of the things I said about us not knowing anything about him. I was wrong saying we knew nothing about him. This is the way he might actually be. That's why people are boggled by his behaviour and take it seriously. You might want to uncross that thing you said, Suvid!

I wish I could really get over this thread, but DreamyBear gave a good explanation of why we can't.

To Author Frank Martin Dimeglio, I know I have been disrespectful, but I have two important requests:
1. Can you talk about what inspired you. Tell us personal things about you, not about your theories. Just so we can get background.
2. Can you read our comments and give specific feedback for every person and how much they understand your theories?
(That is what everyone needs to hear so that they can respect you again. The people have spoken.)
