Sure, post away.
I bet there is even more our mind is capable of that we just do not train or even know is available.
Even more ontopic: How do you train yourself to have deja vu/any remembrance of a dream? I cannot remember the last time I had that feeling nor when
it was even that strong.
I guess I cannot dream while I dream.
You can dream within a dream within a dream. This is something you can observe through the act of consciously dreaming. Happens to me quite often in
fact.
I'll try to cover some techniques to increase precognitive dream recall but may have to come back as time is limited right now.
As to the theory as to why:
If it was simplified: Reality is the recursive feedback from a dreaming conscious Universe.
For this to be true, we would have to view the origin of reality as one based on Consciousness and not one based on materialism. Which is an argument
that has stemmed since the time of Plato and Democritus in 350BC.
We know that the dream precedes the actualizing reality; so the what came first “Reality or the Dream” is self-evident by the answer of a dream
originating first, and the reality actualizing second.
This implies that reality itself is organized by the process of dreaming; ergo this is a type of “dream” right now. A concept that completely
tears away at modern materialism and Occam's razor is used as an argument to rebuke the thought that “reality” stems from dreaming.
However, as being evident in our discussions right now, the dream / reality dyad as I call it, is as it always will be: self-evident.
If we can stomach that we don't know anything about reality short of our speculations and theories; then let's learn from what “reality” is
teaching us about itself in revelations that some (not all) of our dreams can come true in these waves of anomalous cognition.
According to this dream / reality dyad we are experiencing; dreams are part of some creative process by which probable reality originates. The
actualizing of these dreams is the process by which organized thought in the form of a data stream renders at the time of observation.
To understand this further, there are two books which are free online that help progress our thinking past a materialistic Universe and address both
through math and physics the concept of reality being “Virtual”
Mathematician: Brian Whitworth: "The Physical World as a Virtual Reality"
arxiv.org...
Physicist: Thomas Campbell: “My Big Toe”
books.google.com...
My theory suggests this reality is the product of "Dreaming" ergo the link to Déjà vu, (Already Seen) as actually being Déjà Rêvé (Already
Dreamed).
In a Virtual Reality model of the Universe, our dreaming is part of the programming and the actualization of these organized thoughts into reality is
part of the rendering of the program.
Take some time to read the above two books, and then draw from your own personal experiences to derive some conclusions as to how consciousness plays
a role in a recursive feedback interface in the form of a Virtual Dream / Reality.
I can't talk much further, out of time for a bit so will probably have to expand further on these concepts.
