What if the brain is connected to a sort of infrastructure, by means of wavelengths unknown at the moment, in which it can communicate with other brains, sort of the way an internet connection works. Through previous brainstorming, I toyed with the idea that the subconscious is not controlled by our brain, but wavelengths emitted from ourselves in an alternate plane. These waves can travel between the planes and, what if, theoretically, these different planes of existence (which could be of any nature; thought, physical, etc.) are all interconnected, and are not separate.
What if, in these alternate planes, life as we know it is dramatically different, to the point of sheer awesomeness. When we dream, our brain might actually be picking up the brain patterns of our body in another plane, in real-time with the events in that plane.

That's a good point as it may explain strange experiences such as, knowing exactly what the person is going to say next, that happened to me once, I was talking to a guy and throughout the whole conversation I knew what he was going to say next several times.

Jung also felt that dreams presented many symbolic images based upon universal Archetypes. If you have not read about Jung's views on this, you may find him interesting.

I wake from a dream on occassions thinking,did i write that story?did i design those buildings?create those characters? without even trying:perplexed:

Yes, I understand what you mean, I have had different cases in which I have "normal" deja-vu, but there have been instances in which I have experienced and extremely brain-shaking event, where I know what is going to happen next, what that person will say next, EVERYTHING.



It just makes me wonder..

Hi Brandon,

Jung suggested the concept of the Collective Unconscious:

"Jung considered the collective unconscious a "reservoir of the experiences of our species." The collective unconscious goes beyond your personal subconscious memories and draws upon a more universal bank of information. In this way, it contains references that predate your own earthly existence and will continue on long after you're gone."

In terms of everyday affairs, most people have experienced some synchronicity at some point in their lives. Often in dreams. I had an extraordinary period filled with synchronistic experiences during the period of my divorce. Nothing like that has happened since or had occurred before that.

Rubert Sheldrake, likened the human nervous system (brain, spine, nerves) to a T.V. set, which does not create images and sound within itself, but instead is receiving (radio waves) and transmitting (sound) all of time.

Thanks Rich. I have highlighted the above words for your consideration in that perhaps we carry those with us in that we continue to "remain" further enhancing those "references" (experiences) though not consciously realizing it yet continually building on them "linking up" with those "like" experiences (references) with others that will be the glue that will combine the collective consciousness together creating a synchronicity of immeasurable proportions never known to humankind, but inevitable as we share in that diversity of those experiences enhancing and vitalizing that continuum. :)William

Im not sure about this so dont laugh at me ok, I read somewhere that animals share knowledge,eg, if you feed or harm a bird that knowledge will be shared amongst the whole species. I said dont laugh.

Hi Caroline,
I see all of life as a spiral going in and going out. The macro is revealed in the micro and the micro reveals itself in the macro. As I learn more, maybe I will understand better how the whole thing ticks.

Thanks for sharing your observations.

Rich

Hey Rich,
Me too.
You're welcome.

Yes, I think it might very well be that we are continually enhancing the collective unconscious. In fact, that may all that we are all doing. :detective:

I can only conjecture that he kept many of his personal beliefs to himself, so as not to cause any more commotion than he already did within his profession.....................

Gee, maybe I would like to think that way too. That spiral stuff sounds nifty. Could you tell me what it means?
