This thread was going great. I want to keep it alive. So I am reposting it. And no other Dream thread compares to this one either.
U know how people talk about Dream lands and how we also hear about Astral Projection (Traveling)? Well what if we actually leave our bodies during our sleep and dreams and go to the "dream land" and actually live a whole nother life? What if when we're awake we r dreaming in "dream land"? Does ur dreams come true?
If we had another life outside of our conscience such as a dream land, why would it vary so much? Even day to day life doesn't vary as much as dreams do.
i think i had asked this question in one of my posts. but mine probally was a little twisted up lol i think its possible i mean theres that 1 big question that no one really knows about which is ....
( how everything became )
my answer is its possible.. this whole life thing is probally a dream that some other type of life is dreaming i dont know and the funny thing is since ive joined v.r. my thought on things/life has changed totally from what i sort of life being..
I do not think that we are going into 'dream land' when we dream. I think dreams are a portrayal of our subconscious thoughts if that makes any sense. So in answer to your question, no I do not think that it is possible.
I think it is possible because no one truly knows if we are truly here or there.. There are a few souls who would rather live in their dreams than when they are awake..
It is an escape from everyday I say...
I believe its possible cause I have dreamed of things alot and they happen . It's freaky . My mom says they are premonitions .
dreams simply express what we are too pent up, or anxious about to tell ourselves in daily life.
Dream Land is just a word used to say where u go in ur dreams. Dream Land could be a place in ur mind or it could be a parallel world that u visit while dreaming. And to answer the first post...the reason ur dreams may vary is because ur mind could travel to a parallel world therefore ur gettin' a glimpse of "another" life that u could have been living instead of the one that u r living. There is a thread that discusses parallel worlds. It's simply called Parallel Worlds Continued.
I've been to Dreamland... got me a lovely firm mattress from there... discounted too! The real question is are we dreaming we're awake or awake when we're dreaming? I think dreams are the world as we really see it whereas awake we are only responding on a cellular level...
I dont believe it is a dreamland as such but subconscious. It is an area were we have never really knew to much about but now they are looking into it one day we might find out the secert and open our minds to a bigger better world. PPL have all different thourys about dreams and where we go or what happens until we really delve deep into it guess we can only guess.
ok
maybe someone in here, can tell me what this means..lol someone told me that if u dream of something, tis the total opposite...welll here goes...
i would dream the same dream 2 nights in a row, every week for a month, then it stops for a while n starts up again
the dream is that...
im wakin out of the bank and my friend in the dream keeps tellin me u got 3 mill in ur account, what u gonna do...then ex shows up n causes trouble, me n my friend leave...n still askin me...so what u gonna do with that 3 mill...
Maybe it means that one day u will stumble onto some reallly big Cash.
MalkavianMime: what about those of us who are not repressed at all? I still dream.
The life it`s a game.
The true self conduct the character that we are.Sometimes we call him "subcounscious".
Sometimes through our dreams we have a glimpse of this REAL realm.
The masters of magick can enter consciously in this other world.But it`s a must that they live a guardian to watch over thair bodies.
This life it`s a game.A very important one.
So bad you can`t save your character
for reload...
I think anything about the mind is possible .. We have barely touched the surface of understanding how the mind work's . We dont even use it to the fullest yet .. So going to "Dream Land" and living a different life, possibly
Maybe,some dream are just dreams,some dreams may be things of the past or future that someone is projecting to you.
maybe dreams land can only be enterd by and engery flow of the mind..maybe its a real place..and only you can get it by sleeping.
To me..Whats real..is when I'm awake.
but,then I think..am I realyy awake?...Or am I still
dreaming..and dreaming is when I'm awake.
Sometimes...u may not even be dreaming of ur own life. U could be dreaming of another's life. Has anyone had someone say their name in their dreams? I can't recall a dream yet from when my name was called. So could I be dreaming of other's lives?
I think' it's very possible. Who is to say? Until proven not I will believe yes.
That is a great way to look at it. Don't be close minded...Believe until we r proven wrong. And honestly I don't think we will ever be proven wrong.
i'm not sure i want a life in my dreams. some are not that good.
It has come that I am actually inspired to post something here.
For me the dream state is merely an astral projection of my consciousness. When I am between the waking world and sleep world, I am in the perfect twilight of my mind, when I can work the best of my magick between the living and the dead. Dreams I have tend to come to pass as the world that i see when i enter between consciousness can cross over. Be them my intent, spells, demons or spirits that I call. It matters not. The waking dream, or twilight realm is perfect for this. Thus dream states can have so much effect on the physical.
People keep saying that they have horrible dreams and such. Well each life has horrible situations. If u just keep dreaming horrible things ur only dreaming of the situations in that life.
I for one..dreamt that I killed a girl and wrote about it. And I actually disliked the girl at the time in my "real" life.
i dont think we go to dream world.. but would be nice...
Again I am going to explain the Dream Land.
It is a place in ur mind that images r stored. Or it could be a place...like a parallel world. It's where u go when u dream. Not a land in itself.
Well once again lets not mix things up……………
Dreams are caused by chemicals released in REM state, the effect is some crazy event as it clears your memories like rebooting your PC when the memory if full, we do this so we can function the next day.
Vivid dreams …. Your in control of this all events and after you remember it after so no random chemical release to clean and you remember after the whole event thus showing it was not a random activation as your brain gets ready for new day, like a day dream on something you want to happen, this leads us to the next event
Astral projection should be done in mediation not bed … bed your trained to sleep so guess what… you start off right and then fall asleep…. And say things like astral projection just dreams lol
I often visit a special place with a special someone, hoping to no day astro myself there.
When I have dreams like that, I t is like I was there before, and it is like a lucid dream almost, places i go in real it looks famuliar after u drempt it, There are some dreams I have I feel I get stuck in them and feel like in adaze for days
I am a Dream warrior and I Walk in the Dream world. I know what its like to walk in the Astrial and dream world . It takes time and practice to walk within the other realms. You have to beleve and understand the other worlds as well as you need to know where your going. You may end up in a place where You don't want to be. I find myself going there constantly and I tend to help others when I do. Practice makes perfect. If you want to understand the Dream and Astrial world just ask me. And I will explain what I know and I would be happy to teach and help others learn about the Dream and Astrial world..I have been in it for over 4 years and can help as best as I can..
Very interesting concepts. I never dream of what I'm thinking before I go to bed.
Astro projection is diffrent than walking in the Dream World...Astro projection is more of a Out of body exprence than walking in the Dream world. They are both difrent but at the same time the same..Its very intrsting I can sit here on the computer and Astrial Project myself to my Friends and watch over them. Its fun but at the same time you have to be carefull. Things can happen to you in the Astrial and affect you in the Real world.
Awsome. I don't doubt that astral projection is dangerous.
Astral projection is very hard to master, at least for me; I never manged to fully do it.
Dreams mean little to nothing, in my mind. They rarely come true, and are worthless.
Its taken me about two years to really Master Astrial projection and I still sometimes end up in the wrong House or with the wrong person. I have ended up some place while talking to friends and I am like What the hell..Sometimes I am drawn to a certain place ..Just like in my dreams..
I would love to know how to Astral Project but I never actually learned or experienced it.
The dream world is another dimension,its always there,we access it when we rest,but it is always there.warriors who were captured by there enemieswere able to mentally and spiritually place themselves on this plane during torture.
Mine have both have and haven't come true. I am basing this off of another person that said I would travel to her...astral project to her physical self on the other side of the country. So some things were definitely fulfilled. But I know not everything has been...or might be happier right now.
It could be an astral plane also could be past lives experiences
when I lay down I go to my happy place so I dont have bad dreams but I usually dont remember my dreams any way....
My belief has always been that dreams are something that occur during REM sleep. I Do believe that some people hold the abilites to perform Astral Projection. When I first read the topic it reminded me of childhood and something a parent would tell a child, ‘Its time to go to Dream Land.’ Which would refer to simply going to sleep to dream. What I know wonder is this: I was in very sick once and was in a Coma for 5 days. When I woke up I had the feeling that I had been somewhere else. I could not remember any details but the feeling was overwhelming. When I saw my family again after I awoke from the coma I had the feeling I had been totally away from them and was glad to see them. I also had the feeling I had not seen them in many years and not just five days. What if this ‘other place’ was Dream Land? Another plan of existence between life and death. Not sure I would borrow the theory of it being Dream Land but the feelings were differently some place else deeper then a dream state of REM sleep. Just a thought…guess I shall ponder on this, eh?
Ur post about u being in a coma is very mind opening. What if "dream land" is faster than the "real world"?
If there is such a thing as a "Dream Land" I guess that makes me the ruler... *rubs finger nails on chest* Haha Ok seriously now.
I dont think there is a dream land. I mean I dont dream anymore, my body's not able to reach REM sleep and hasnt for the past 4 years.
The other night I havent drempt in awhile, but I drempt of this place and unfamilur place stage and seats and there was a musical people singing and playing instruments, I went to go to the bathroom in my dream and these people kept pointing to me that i cant sit there I said to them i was going to the bathroom and they kept pointing then when i walked out of the theater i woke up
Ok. Last night I had a part in my dream where I fell...The thing I hate about falling in my dreams is that I jerk myself awake all the time. Who else jerks everytime they fall?
When I dream, it's mostly vague and when I wake up I forget most dreams, unless they hurt me in some way. Like the night I dreampt of my ex--I awoke and cried. I believe that I have premonitions in my sleep. Like small unimportant things. But when I get to that point it feels kind of like de ja vu
I wish. Some of my dreams are way better than real life, lol.
The Things I dream about I guess are my Subconsious (sp), But Some of them I am not so Sure of. I don't think we leave our Bodies to Visit the "DreamLand" I think its our mind replaying or Creating what we think about Subconsciously(sp).
It's kinda weird to think about leaving ur mind or body during a dream. The other night I jerked back into my body. Sucked.
I think it's a very... interesting thought, but quite unlikely. Life is here and now, and though I believe in astral projection I don't think that your soul can just wander off and live a whole other life while you dream. In my belief that's not the purpose of dreaming... When you dream, it's your inner self exposing emotions and images that you've seen in your awakened life...
in my dreams i have felt myself leave and just wander off, it is a very scary thing, the mind is a very scary thing to think what it can do when we aren't physcially awake.
dreams are just a place in our minds at least thats what ive been told.........
I don't mean you "live" another life. You experience it. You watching it being played out in another world. Maybe our dreams are a portal to a parallel world.
It's all subjective. Dreams and wakefulness are just two sides of the same coin. Who's to say which is heads and which is tails?
dreams are the consciense minds way of talkin gt the subconscience...most of the images are Arcatypes...our subconscience minds way of making us understand what we need to grow...They are all part of the whole, two sides of the same coin...333
I find if i dream of black and white they dont seem to happen but if they are in if full color they do seem to happen maybe not right away but within a week or so it freaks me out sometimes..and I dont know why it happens..
I have never dreamed in Black and White. Mine are always in color.
Sometimes when I'm dreaming it seems so real that when I'm awake I think that sometimes there is another world I just came out of. But not all the time. So I dont know for sure.
Same here. I feel like that a lot. Or I feel like I've been half asleep and half awake all night.
i have always had the thought run through my mind about how do we know that life isnt a dream?
I think it is possible well I do now anyways.
I had a pretty weird dream last night that would make me bleive anything at this point
Oh. I see what Stabb was talking about. Well, I see alot of peoples interpretations on how to interpret dreams and I know that their are more ways to interpret.
I honestly think dreams are all what our mind wants to see and do...that it's just a place to get away
Personally I would encourage experimentation in this, There is something I have come across recently, it is called Huna, it is a "thoughts create your reality" system, there is a running podcast from a guy who Calls himself pohaku, And he addresses things like this, I would suggest keeping a dream journal also and finding out where this possible dream double of yourself goes, I have always thought of dreams as a place where you can live out the things you want in reality that you can't always have, money, the ability to fly, the love of another, what ever it may be in that state of conciousness you can find it, Dreams are what I believe to be your unconscious mind telling your conscious mind what you want. Of coarse my perceptions may be flawed, but I would still encourage experimentation.
It seems that my nightmares are what takes place a bitto often. Dreams are hard to catch.
Nightmares are easily gotten rid of by Balancing out your life, And facing fears, you can also just channel the direction of a dream away from a nightmare, but not always, if you are aware that you are dreaming you can start to control them, the Yeah thats what I thought of but even that might be enough to distract you from what you have to face the next day, your dreams are for you to enjoy, you shouldn't have to worry about the content of them.
if you left your body to go to a dream land to live another im not sure if anything would different then a real life sure u might not get hurt or snything but im sure the problems that follow everyone in their lives would be doing the same thing in your dream land life as well and nothing would be able to change that at all.
Complicated issue...I guess we'll never know when we are really awaken or asleep...Just make sure that you are having fun in both worlds ;-)
if we do leave our bodies and go to 'dream land' wouldn't it be possible for us to lose our 'soul' in that way? to never be truly yourself again? or for someone else's 'soul' inside of you?
cherryblossom-
Maybe, when you're sleeping you put natural shields up that protect you.
I believe that dreams are premonitions as well. I just had a dream the other night that my bf was cheating on me. Turned out he did cheat on me at the beginning of our relationship. Finally told me today though.
ok when i sleep before i go to sleep i think happy thoughts and i have happy dreams yay
I never dream what I think. If that was the case I'd never have nightmares.
Dreams only be a nightmare when the dream give you fear. Dreams can try to tell something that will happen or that have happen.
I know the premonition part. It's happened a couple times. The alst was the worst.
*bump* Just bumping so some of the one's who haven't had a chance to read...can.
I feel that dreams are the doorway to things to come or things that have happened to us in a pst life and we dream them to help us be aware of future and past mistakes . just how I feel is all.
No because is your own dreams it is scientifically proven that it is impossible for you to die. In your dreams you can perform impossible feats such as fight many people at once and make numbers count for nothing; and since death is an inevitability in life, then there can be no such "dream land."
But how do we know that the scientifically proven is actually true? People die in their sleep all the time. So they are dreaming before they die.
i dont know what goes on when i am asleep ... but anything is possible time will tell for aLL
Why is that some people are scared of what their dreams are telling them? My dreams usually comfort me. The other day I had a comforting dream and sometimes I have disturbing dreams. Our dreams are always trying to tell us something. Sometimes we dream just to smile that way we can rest easier.
yes i agree -- the greatest of those dreamers was Pharoh.....but it takes a Joseph to explain the going ons.
RE: hisdarkestdream
I jerk myself awake a lot. not when im falling like off of a cliff or something, but more so if I'm walking in a dream or going down some stairs, my legs will jerk me awake if I trip. I find it quite amusing and yet annoying at the same time.
I guess I am open to the idea of a dream land. My dreams are most of the time hypnogogic, and I am dreaming at the same time my body is physically atuned to its surroundings.
But then there are the dreams my mind can control...those are the ones that I feel could be possibly taking place in this "dream land" that you suggested.
Yea, I know what you mean. I jerk myself awake all the time as well. And I hate it. I'll be doing the same as you...walking or something...and either my legs or my arms will jerk me awake. Sometimes I wake to whispers that are in my dreams.
I jerk awake in some dreams but someone i love is getting hurt i think some dreams come true and some will happen if your not careful
Some dreams do come true. I've had it happen A LOT! Sometimes it's scary.
A lot of times im jerked awake right before something really bad happens to me.
I've had a few dreams that came true. But they only focused on one person in my life. I still feel to this day he was my soulmate. The worst dream I will ever have to come true.....the one that predicted his death. Its embedded in my mind forever.
well if dreams come true im gonna have a very violent life ahead of me. I dream about people getting killed or me slaying zombie clones. lol. yeah kinda weird.
I get dreams that come true a lot- but not anything major- I'll see a scene from my dreams in real life sometimes- something really dull, like in a classroom or something- and the exact scene will happoen. That happens almost everytime I have a dream (I don't dream more than about once a week though)
i some times go to sleep angry at a friend and in my dream im attacking this person really bad, hopefully these dreams dont come true..
Well some dreams that seem stupid are just made to make you laugh. Some dreams aren't mean to fortell things.
