It means memories have associations with dreams. "Remember", I believe, is your discrepancy here, but I'm not certain if one can remember while dreaming.

Descartes is said to be one of the colossal mind that ever walked the earth.

Am I am? , if I think I am?

I believe in the interconnectivity of all fundamental particles in the universe

Or cosmic mindful that matter

Hi,

I read the article that you linked to. It seemed like it was all speculation. The kind that I do. That's OK with me.

None of the research, however, broaches the subject of how the mind switches states.

Rich

The basic forms found in cubist paintings are found elsewhere. I might find the hues of the painting in the paint used to paint them or maybe I see a rock that has the color pattern of a patch of the painting made in Picasso's blue period. I might see a geometric form found in Matisse in nature, or I might see the pattern of the dress one of the figures is wearing on a piece of cloth in a store window. We abstract visual attributes, rearrange them and produce a painting. It still all comes from experience.

My point is that if an object can be conceivably constructed out of an amalgamation of sense quanta, then it is necessarily a waking object. So the claim that some object is present in a dream that has no waking analog is essentially this:'There are objects in dreams that have a form that cannot be related in any way to the logical possibilities that come out of waking experience', so that essentially you are telling me that the logical forms found in dreams could in no way relate to physical or logically possible waking reality. This implies some sort of very strange dualism.

I am saying that the evidence that dream images are just complexes of waking experience is a speculation, which does not have enough evidence to support it. It may be true. But it is, until we have some way of confirming it, merely a speculation. I am still not clear what this all has to do with remembering waking life. I still doubt that we remember anything when we are asleep and unconscious. Suppose that instead of being asleep, I am in a coma. Am I still remembering things?

I am not talking about whether circles and lines are formed in nature - though in my dreams there aren't necessarily forms that I can describe. However, where in nature do you find this form?

There has never once been a time in my life that I didn't know who I was in a dream. I might be in the most fantastical and alien circumstance -- but it's always been me. And if I had parents in the dream, it's always been my parents and I've known them to be my parents.

Well, that is fine. What does that show about other people?

So I ask a very simple, but maybe too subtle, question. Why these different states if it is exactly the same MIND?

All it takes is one positive example to disprove a negative assertion, right?

We have different states even when we're awake, too. Ever have that dissociative state when you're driving, and you sort of come into yourself and realize that you've been completely zoning since god-knows-when? And you I'm sure know people who are labile and nasty when they're tired and stressed but kind and congenial when things are going smooth. What's up with that? How is it that their interface with others is so capricious, if not for a different state of mind?

Rich you and I seem to be on the same wave band don't we?

Our bodies are just condensed vibrating energy fields?

Peace and light
