[@GoddessGaiaOracle]

Yes.! Thank you. I’ve experienced almost every type of dream discussed. I was surprised to learn that most people don’t realize they dream every night is this normal?.i ask because I am fully aware and able to alter my dreams in real time since childhood (traumatic, prophetic, fear based) to protect myself or even solve issues from my awake time. Are there categories of dreamers? And I’m also curious are the dreams and spiritual levels altered after pineal gland removal? Again thank you 😊

[@richardhart2291]

Michael Singer has talked about this. Dr. Rahul Jandial is using the western approach to understand that the symptom is by being analytical using the mind to explain something that is created by the mind. There is no scientific evidence. Joseph Campbell wrote the book The Power of Myth that describes the archetypal images that are in every culture, because the mind operates the same in all humans. It is the energy of past experience, everything stored in the subconscious from past experiences that is released to form the images experienced by the brain. It is not something external to the brain, it is from within. Consciousness is the witness of what is observed in the present moment. There is not past or future in consciousness. It is not a creator, it is an observer of what is happening as what we observe through our five senses. Michael Singer describes this, it is the knowledge perfect past masters have taught for centuries. That is what quantum physics is discovering. The question is not what our experience of energy means, it is to be aware of what is watching this energy unfolding in front of us, the pure consciousness that has no thoughts and no feelings.

I had a miscarriage last month. I had the most vivid dream a couple weeks later, that I walked in to pick up my baby from the daycare I used to work at. I didn’t see a face but was called to my baby because I instantly spotted the onesie I had bought when I found out about the pregnancy. I see a baby wearing that onesie tucked into leggings and I and go to pick them up, I felt their weight in my arms, smelled the newborn smell of their precious skin. As soon as that happened, I woke up. It was so vivid and It felt so magical and SO REAL. The peace I felt was indescribable like my entire life aligned at once. Like I was looking at a completely finished, beautiful puzzle.

In my early 20s, I decided to go to therapy. She was the most amazing therapist I ever encountered, and one of the first things she taught me was how to remember to my dreams. Since then I have experienced lucid, vivid, epic, brief, recurrent, realistic, and surreal while able to recall many of them! I wish more therapists would incorporate dream analysis into their practices. Dreams are the windows to your soul and taught me much about myself ❤

[@SinisterSpatula]

What's the trick to remembering them? I lost the ability to remember my dreams for decades now.

[@Samco234]

Can you share your knowledge plz

[@itsalluphl]

I was taught was to have something to write with and low but ample lighting at your bedside. When you wake from a dream don’t allow anything to distract you. Be slow and methodical when you grab your paper and pencil. Write down everything that comes to mind without trying to form sentences and don’t try to analyze the dream as you write your thoughts. After you feel you’ve written down all your thoughts read them to see if any additional memories of the dream come to mind and write them down. Read it again to form images of what you dreamt, and then read it again out loud. The more you repeat it the more likely you are to remember it and you’ll begin to form a perspective around what you dreamed. If you have a recording device that would make it easier. The more you practice doing this the better you’ll get with your recall. When you’re able to remember your dreams, you can return to that dream at a later time and create a new ending. If you’re having a bad dream, you’ll know you’re in a dream and tell yourself to wake up. Some dreams will represent a slice of life while others will be surreal. It’s the surreal ones that have the deepest meaning and are more challenging to analyze. The more you get into your dreams, the more you will discover about yourself.

When I am awake, I have a very hard time being able to recall my native tongue, but when I dream, it's like I never learned English. I wake up upset that I can't speak German in my waking life. It's a weird feeling. I was five when I was adopted by my American parents. I knew zero English then.

@@nqobileshongwe923I would try to force myself awake to write down a part of the dream so that I would remember the dream. But most times I swore that I would remember my dream-hardly ever remembered those dreams. I recall saying to myself that I’m getting up to write this one down but fell back asleep. The premonitions I had within dreams occurred 2-20 plus years later. The only reason I remembered them was because they were so intense and real or frightening that I shared them with my friend Timmy. 20 plus years later was when he called me and told me that I was prolific. One I drew on a napkin, the other was about Katrina-I saw what was happening and even said everyone is running to the dome. They were pushing and climbing up fences getting to the dome. I stated the flood and saw cars going up on medians. What struck me was that I mentioned that they were going to the dome. This to me was the key point that solidified that this was truly a dream premonition.

Here's something weird I'm hoping someone can provide some explanation for. I had a horrible dream that the city of Austin Texas was completely destroyed. In this dream, I'm aware that it is mid day, but it's like the middle of night because no sun light is shining through. There is a thick black dust in the atmosphere. All of Austin's massive spaghetti loop fly-overs had fallen, which then caused gas explosions. And there were no people anywhere. It was horrifying. One of the most vivid dreams I've had. But here is the weird part. When I awoke, I went downstairs. One of my tenants and his 13 year old son, who was visiting for the weekend, were sitting in the living room. Suddenly, the 13 year old turned to his dad and said.. "DAD! DAD! I forgot to tell you. Last night I had a terrible nightmare that the city of Austin Texas was totally destroyed!" Well, I can tell you that I froze in place when I heard him say that. I couldn't believe my ears. I hadn't told anyone about my dream. I'd only been awake a few minutes. So the boy could not have been copy catting me. How is this possible? That we had the exact same dream, in the same house, on the same night. And a most bizarre dream at that. We compared details and determined we had the exact same dream. Again, how is this possible? I posted this on various dream interpretation sites, and got no response.

[@Saer-s9u]

I've had shared dreams...often and always with someone in the family. Some will wake me, I will phone the person I'm sharing the dream with to confirm. Always it's an imminent warning a 3rd family member is in direct line for a catastrophic death within the next hour. Sometimes the shared dream tells us one has had a sudden,tramatic death...we note the time. Ten days before my husband passed because of a negligent Dr., we shared the same dream 3 nights in a row. We were holding hands, flying about 3 feet off the dirt road near his family's farm. We flew past it to the local cemetery were his family has their resting place. I dreampt our daughter had cancer in her neck. When she woke up,there it was!!Her sweet neck swollen like oranges on both sides. That was 2 years of constant,focused dreaming. Thank heaven the dr.s would listen and change tactics. I could write a book ..... I live to dream. This waking state is a distraction on the real journey. 😢

I can usually remember the dreams in detail, and sometimes write them down. I sometimes dream so vividly that I carry the emotions of a dream foward into waking for part of the day.

Do a whole series with this man!!! I've read 2 of his books so far and look forward to reading this one. "Life on a knifes edge", changed my life!..... interested to hear his thoughts on what HYPNOSIS is. I feel it's opening a dangerous kind of window to "rewriting" possibly, one's memory.

[@leanne123]

Not your memory. Hypnosis can change your SUB conscious beliefs. Beliefs drive your behaviour. Like if you BELIEVE a bug is dangerous then you won't go where they are. Sometimes your subconscious beliefs can drive dysfunctional behaviour in your life. Consciousness can manage behaviours but your fundamental beliefs will take over if you are not vigilant.

[@rishmapoeran403]

My dreams have always told me what's going on with my children or my ex or the people around me and even people I don't know, but then meet. And it always tells me what's going to happen or has happened. It's really strange but true.

[@samex8275]

Me too! I dream about people that I have not met before, and then I meet them in the future. Have you had deja vu dreams?

[@beboundless7897]

Hey, yes I have had deja vu dreams too! So many times in my life. I often have dreams of my future, events and people before it happens or before I meet them. It still floors me to this day

[@leoonthego474]

Very true. While billions of people have experienced guiding and DejaVu dreams is more than enough proof that dreams are not created by the brain and are captured/transformed by our mind (our spiritual entity). The deeper subject is the time concept. As Einstein stumbled on his special relativity theory where time is relative and passes depending on your frame (body) reference, the explanation therefore is, if your frame of reference (speed) is greater than time then time becomes obsolete. So in other words the past and future all becomes the present. If our spirit is pure energy and the speed it moves is much greater than light than while we dream we move out of our time frame and capture information from the future and past. Hence why while dreaming for seconds in our body frame captivated by time, can be a days lived in dream matter.

Every question he was asked he answered with: “So, that’s a big question, and what I want to do is answer your question so you can know the answer. But I can’t answer it without answering it first. So, I’m going to answer your question with this answer. The question is really big. So the answer will be a big answer.

Seemed more con-man like than neuroscientist, imho.

[@Liciablyth]

Good question. In my experience, dreams follow the same guidelines. On a very basic level they show what we want or what we do not want. Then we look at what the symbol in the dream means to that individual. But even this is complex. for example, A snake for some people symbolizes change. For others it symbolizes the hideen becoming visible. But the same type of dream can mean something completely different. For example, "I wanted to walk out the open door to the grass outside but a snake lay on step" One person might see this as a sign to be cautious in moving ahead with their plans. Another person might see it as an indicator that their pathway ahead has strength and power. addiction recovery dreams might simply be symbolizing the stressful physical experiences and psycho-social experiences of withdrawal. There are more complications about how the brain might have been damaged for the duration of their addiction and why the person has the dreams that they experience.

[@Liciablyth]

@@ThingsWorseThanDeath As an academic I admire his refusal to appear to know it all. The more we learn the more we realise we know very little. This is what he is indicating in the way he talks. It is very difficult in a talk show like this to teach the listener some of the basics of how the brain works, let alone more complex understandings. So the task is then to try to limit answers to the very minimum. However, one often has to answer a question by first providing some background so that the answer makes better sense. This type of discussion though, is not to everyone's liking so I understand your frustration.

For whatever reason, i seem to be able to remember my dreams every morning, and have done so since i was a teenager. I have noticed that my dreams have become more advanced in colors, conversations, meeting people from the bible, and even hugging a friend who had passed away. The most amazing thing that a lot of people don't believe, is that in dreams you can still feel pain, taste foods, smell odours, just like you do when you are awake. One time i woken up from sleep and it was cold, but i didn’t want get out of bed to grab an extra blanket, so i just tried to go back to sleep. When i did manage to fall back to sleep, the temperature changed, and a lady was looking at me with a smile. It was like a guide or gardian angle who read my mind and fixed the situation. My first sleep paralysis happened because i herd an old ladies voice telling me to get out of her caravan. I guess she use to live in that caravan i was living in at the time, but obviously she had passed on, and maybe came back for a visit. I can go on forever about dreams, and the crazy things i have experienced, but this comment is already getting too long. 😅

Only twice in my life I had a dream in which I was loved. It was a love that I never felt and never experienced while awake. I think our body knows. Every cell and neuron in us knows. And this translates into dreams. The body shows us things through dreams that we don't know how to translate.

[@fossmountainfilm]

Wow! Lewis and team, I love where you are taking the School of Greatness! It is getting better and better every year. Thank you for having Dr. Rahul on your show. I remember years ago reading about experiments with mice and memories. Researchers wanted to find out where memories, that helped the mice run a maze, were being stored in the brain. They repeatedly removed greater sections of the mice's brains and yet the mice still could navigate their way through the maze. After much research , the researchers came to the conclusion that some memories are stored externally to the brain. It is as if our brains are invisibly all connected to one master network. Sorry I don't have any sources for this research. Throughout my life I have had several dreams in the sleeping state come true in the waking state. Some hours after waking up, days and even months later. I have met others who have had premonition dreams as well. So, it is my belief that not all dreams manifest from the meatball on our shoulders. We are spiritual beings having a human experience and not the other way around. Life is magical!

[@mrlasttimer]

Michael Singer talks about this as how energy that comes in through the 5 senses and how this energy is stored in the body as stress. Our mind stores energy from past and current experiences in our subconscious and dreaming is the releasing of this energy. This has been understood for centuries by yogic spiritual teachers. We can only dream from what we have experienced from our past experiences. Imagine if the part of our brain called the mind is trying to understand the produce of the mind. That people have similar dreams does not validate that there is meaning in dreams. It might just mean that we all have thoughts of the mind and feelings of the heart that are stored in the subconscious as stress and that need to be released.
