- The bestselling neurosurgeon and neuroscientist returns to How To Academy to share the secrets of the sleeping brain and explore the astonishing power of dreams to improve our waking lives.
What does your sleeping brain reveal about your waking life? Do we sleep in order to dream? Dreams are a source of mystery. They have changed the course of individual lives and the world, spurring business deals, inspiring art and scientific breakthroughs, triggering military invasions and mental breakdowns. Yet the source of dreams is not mysterious. They are the product of an extraordinary transformation that occurs in the brain each night when we sleep.
The bestselling neurosurgeon Rahul Jandial will delve into the science of the dreaming brain and show the extraordinary impact of dreams upon on waking lives.
I had a recurring nightmare as a kid where the grim reaper would approach me always with the words "I am the devil of darkness" & it scared the life out of me every time. At some point I had it so often that when he appeared I just said, annoyed, "not you again" & woke up instantly. The next day my school bully pushed me against the wall & I just instinctively turned the table and grabbed his collar pushing him against the wall. The color drained out of his face & he never put hands on me again. Changed my life.
I thought you were going to say you grabbed the bully and told him you were the devil of darkness!
@@philmcgroin 🤣 That would have made an epic plot twist.
@@soulmate702000 he'd have had nightmares after that 😁
Right on. The shadow of darkness stores the whole power of creation, in potential -- hidden, but _fruitful_ when light (freedom) has been born out of it. You awoke your Will in that moment.
Using the term correctly, it was in fact an _archetypal_ dream: pertaining to the origin of experience. "In the beginning was the void [darkness]" is followed by "then God said let there be light [awaken], and it shown: now the darkness has left".
More simply, you _faced_ your _shadow._ Be aware, a mighty power, truly terribly, dwells within all of us. Be not chained to fear. To be _free_ in this way is _true_ freedom. Others then, too, lose their "death grip" over you. All power is yours. Truly. Thank you.
Great brain reaction⚠️✅BRAVO💪
I had a dream that there was a house on fire. Their was a father and his children in the house. I felt like I was their with them as someone who was looking in watching the whole house burn around them . I remember the emotional feeling of wanting to help them get out of the house but couldn't. The next day the news reported a family died in a house fire. I talked to a friend about my dream she said her husband had the same dream. I was in my 20's then now in my 60s and remember the dream like it was yesterday. I believe we can connect with other's in our waking and dream state. The mind is powerful.
Dr Michael Persinger, the late _maverick_ behavioral neuroscientist, gives the science of how it is so: the Earth and person's magnetic field.
To this day I still Dream about the 1977 horror movie The Omen with Gregory Peck and Lee Remick!
This has happened to me over the years and related to many events. Incredible.
Some of my dreams have warned me of things I needed to know within the next day, one dream saved my baby son’s life .
I dream what is going to happen. Who is going to have a baby boy or girl.... And many more. Usually simbolic dreams.... First the event must happen. For me to understand what the dream meant. Scary.
Dreams can whisper to you about the future.
Best dream I had that I remember - I was on stage with Tom Jones doing the backup singing for ‘It’s not unusual’!
I got deeply into lucid dreaming in my mid 20s. After a number of failed starts, I nailed it. I have flown around the moon, along rivers, streams, and valleys, and been deep into space as a single point of light. These are just a few of the adventures I’ve had in this incredible realm. I also, early during this time, vanquished a recurring childhood nightmare by diving headfirst into it. It can be very empowering.
7:44. Doing math in a dream. There was a time when I was trying to figure out the mathematics in doing a spiral staircase . I did a lot of studying but still was having trouble understanding. Then one morning on awakening, I had the answer. Maybe I was trying to hard in my waken state. But while resting in sleep, I dreamed of laying out and building that spiral staircase, what a refreshing morning to wake to. You can do math in dreams
I agree. There are times when just as others do I have much difficulty with finding solutions to my problems. Often after having “slept on it” I awake with the necessary answers to those problems. Just as my grandma used to say, “Let me sleep on it.”
@@susanhamilton1205 I’ve read about scientists and inventors using sleep and dreams to come up with great outcomes. Time traveling is a good one, in dreams it’s easy,remembering is the hard part. Dream journaling or telling someone cements the memory. Some people are good at lucid dreaming. I can probably remembering doing that once or twice in my life time.. I did have a time traveling experience once that I do remember quite well. It was a very vivid dream, that I told my girlfriend. Months later , I was in another state and all the parts ( well most) were in place, when my girlfriend came down to visit, I brought her to the place and showed her, everything was like in the dream. Life is more than we can imagine. 👍
A spiral stair case design -wow. This reminds me of how after constant study the whole periodic table is said to have appeared.
This man is too perfect to be human!
Sexy
Only a foolish woman would say such a thing... carnality must be your god if indeed u have one...😮
I have almost complete dream recall. If you asked me what dream I had last Tuesday I would usually be able to call it back to me in great detail. I am not certain what this says about my brain being able to retain the dream information long after the dreamtime is gone. My dreams are so much like reality that I often wonder upon awakening how I could have been so convinced that that dreamlife was my life; fascinating!!
Intriguing
I’ve had time in my life like that. If I worked at it, I could dream every night and remember them all. It did get bothersome after a while, when I started having dreams that were referencing other dreams. I started getting frustrated with this double life and extra memories I didn’t need to be thinking about all day. I did figure out the cryptic symbolism in the dreams though so it’s not like it was a waste of memory per se
I'm watching this from a spiritual perspective as someone who has been training myself how to experience lucid dreams as a stepping stone towards Astral projection. Hearing all the confirmations about what is actually happening in the awake brain versus the dreaming brain might be the last puzzle piece for me to achieve this goal. Universal thanks for this amazing presentation delivered in such relaxed language so that anyone would be able to understand. Probably see you tonight in my dreams Dr. Thanks a million.
i think he is marvellous 🤩
I reached the astral plane twice. It literally had the gridded/ checkered floor that you see in pictures. It was alive and full of vitality. I felt my awareness suddenly move out of my forehead (3rd eye) and when it had escaped out of the body, that's instantly where I found myself, the astral plane. Now, if I had another go, I would be wise to control my ego's sudden reaction of "holy shit dude!!" bc that instantly flung me back into my body, after just a few seconds. If you get there, brother, let it seem to your ego that it's _absolutely normal,_ and be ready to control your, shall we say, dopamine reward response.
Is this doctor ❤❤. How much nationality is he😊 he is very very handsome god bless him
@PatrickShanahan Be careful with that. It's how I started astral projection....but it got way out of control, to the extent that twice I was almost trapped in nothingness.
Same here. I travel many times
That was brilliant, I like everything that has to be done with the brain. I had nightmares as a child and I thought about what I could do about them. So I came up with the idea that I shouldn't fight against nightmares and just let them happen (nothing bad can happen, it's just a dream). Later I had a dream that my employer will check a certain thing with me and it has been confirmed and again later that my wife is cheating on me and it has also been confirmed. My summary the brain also has a Bluetooth function
When I was a young, very shy teenager I had a dream/nightmare that my boss from the deli I worked at told me I had to work at their other location which was quite far away. I told him I couldn’t and he pressured that I had to. I very much out of character swore at him and basically told him to bite me. The next day when I went into work they had scheduled me to work at their other location but it was crossed off and changed so I didn’t have to. I was too nervous around my boss after that to stay working there. Did he somehow hear me cussing him out in dreamland 🤷🏻♀️🤣

I rarely lucid dream but when I do it's usually during naps and like 10x more likely when sleeping in very warm weather with windows of my bedroom open.
Awesome talk, thank you. I don’t often remember my dreams lately. But for years I dreamt in the lucid way, stopping any bad thing and recreating the scenario to please myself. It felt like making a movie.
How absolutely wonderful that would be to do! I must research more on how to do it. I think though that I would need a coach.
I would like to comment on the question regarding waking life as an hallucination as put forth by the neuroscientist Anil Seth. The current neuro-scientific theory known as predictive processing or active inference (most notably associated with Carl Friston, Andy Clark and Lisa Feldman Barrett) proposes that the world each of us experiences is a prediction created by our brain and this prediction is constantly updated (Bayesian processing) via sensory input that reveals "prediction errors". Though this indicates that the world we experience is a type of "hallucination", it does not imply that the world or reality itself is a hallucination. I think that Dr. Jandial may have misunderstood this point in his answer to the question. The predictive processing paradigm would indicate that dreaming is in fact similar to waking consciousness but since we are sleeping, we do not have any sensory input and therefore the "hallucination" is not modulated by prediction error.
Yes
There certainly is almost complete unpredictability in dreams
@@smooth_pursuit Excellent insight! A quick side note: I have been remembering more dreams and having many semi-lucid dreams since I watched this video. I have also been reading Metzinger's new book, "The Elephant and the Blind", which has chapters on dreaming, lucid dreaming and even lucid NREM sleep experienced by meditators.
God Bless my brain.. my dreams are full of information
A segment from 'Saved by the Light of the Buddha Within'...
My new understandings of what many call 'God -The Holy Spirit' - resulting from some of the extraordinary ongoing after-effects relating to my NDE...
Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what some scientists are now referring to as the unified field of consciousnesses. In other words, it’s the essence of all existence and non-existence - the ultimate creative force behind planets, stars, nebulae, people, animals, trees, fish, birds, and all phenomena, manifest or latent. All matter and intelligence are simply waves or ripples manifesting to and from this core source. Consciousness (enlightenment) is itself the actual creator of everything that exists now, ever existed in the past, or will exist in the future - right down to the minutest particles of dust - each being an individual ripple or wave.
The big difference between chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo and most other conventional prayers is that instead of depending on a ‘middleman’ to connect us to our state of inner enlightenment, we’re able to do it ourselves. That’s because chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo allows us to tap directly into our enlightened state by way of this self-produced sound vibration. ‘Who or What Is God?’ If we compare the concept of God being a separate entity that is forever watching down on us, to the teachings of Nichiren, it makes more sense to me that the true omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence of what most people perceive to be God, is the fantastic state of enlightenment that exists within each of us. Some say that God is an entity that’s beyond physical matter - I think that the vast amount of information continuously being conveyed via electromagnetic waves in today’s world gives us proof of how an invisible state of God could indeed exist.
For example, it’s now widely known that specific data relayed by way of electromagnetic waves has the potential to help bring about extraordinary and powerful effects - including an instant global awareness of something or a mass emotional reaction. It’s also common knowledge that these invisible waves can easily be used to detonate a bomb or to enable NASA to control the movements of a robot as far away as the Moon or Mars - none of which is possible without a receiver to decode the information that’s being transmitted. Without the receiver, the data would remain impotent. In a very similar way, we need to have our own ‘receiver’ switched on so that we can activate a clear and precise understanding of our own life, all other life and what everything else in existence is.
Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day helps us to achieve this because it allows us to reach the core of our enlightenment and keep it switched on. That’s because Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what scientists now refer to as the unified field of consciousnesses. To break it down - Myoho represents the Law of manifestation and latency (Nature) and consists of two alternating states. For example, the state of Myo is where everything in life that’s not obvious to us exists - including our stored memories when we’re not thinking about them - our hidden potential and inner emotions whenever they’re dormant - our desires, our fears, our wisdom, happiness, karma - and more importantly, our enlightenment.
The other state, ho, is where everything in Life exists whenever it becomes evident to us, such as when a thought pops up from within our memory - whenever we experience or express our emotions - or whenever a good or bad cause manifests as an effect from our karma. When anything becomes apparent, it merely means that it’s come out of the state of Myo (dormancy/latency) and into a state of ho (manifestation). It’s the difference between consciousness and unconsciousness, being awake or asleep, or knowing and not knowing.
The second law - Renge - Ren meaning cause and ge meaning effect, governs and controls the functions of Myoho - these two laws of Myoho and Renge, not only function together simultaneously but also underlies all spiritual and physical existence.
The final and third part of the tri-combination - Kyo, is the Law that allows Myoho to integrate with Renge - or vice versa. It’s the great, invisible thread of energy that fuses and connects all Life and matter - as well as the past, present and future. It’s also sometimes termed the Universal Law of Communication - perhaps it could even be compared with the string theory that many scientists now suspect exists.
Just as the cells in our body, our thoughts, feelings and everything else is continually fluctuating within us - all that exists in the world around us and beyond is also in a constant state of flux - constantly controlled by these three fundamental laws. In fact, more things are going back and forth between the two states of Myo and ho in a single moment than it would ever be possible to calculate or describe. And it doesn’t matter how big or small, famous or trivial anything or anyone may appear to be, everything that’s ever existed in the past, exists now or will exist in the future, exists only because of the workings of the Laws ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ - the basis of the four fundamental forces, and if they didn’t function, neither we nor anything else could go on existing. That’s because all forms of existence, including the seasons, day, night, birth, death and so on, are moving forward in an ongoing flow of continuation - rhythmically reverting back and forth between the two fundamental states of Myo and ho in absolute accordance with Renge - and by way of Kyo. Even stars are dying and being reborn under the workings of what the combination ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ represents. Nam, or Namu - which mean the same thing, are vibrational passwords or keys that allow us to reach deep into our life and fuse with or become one with ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’.
On a more personal level, nothing ever happens by chance or coincidence, it’s the causes that we’ve made in our past, or are presently making, that determine how these laws function uniquely in each of our lives - as well as the environment from moment to moment. By facing east, in harmony with the direction that the Earth is spinning, and chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo for a minimum of, let’s say, ten minutes daily to start with, any of us can experience actual proof of its positive effects in our lives - even if it only makes us feel good on the inside, there will be a definite positive effect. That’s because we’re able to pierce through the thickest layers of our karma and activate our inherent Buddha Nature (our enlightened state). By so doing, we’re then able to bring forth the wisdom and good fortune that we need to challenge, overcome and change our adverse circumstances - turn them into positive ones - or manifest and gain even greater fulfilment in our daily lives from our accumulated good karma. This also allows us to bring forth the wisdom that can free us from the ignorance and stupidity that’s preventing us from accepting and being proud of the person that we indeed are - regardless of our race, colour, gender or sexuality. We’re also able to see and understand our circumstances and the environment far more clearly, as well as attract and connect with any needed external beneficial forces and situations. As I’ve already mentioned, everything is subject to the law of Cause and Effect - the ‘actual-proof-strength’ resulting from chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo always depends on our determination, sincerity and dedication.
For example, the levels of difference could be compared to making a sound on a piano, creating a melody, producing a great song, and so on. Something else that’s very important to always respect and acknowledge is that the Law (or if you prefer God) is in everyone and everything.
NB: There are frightening and disturbing sounds, and there are tranquil and relaxing sounds. It’s the emotional result of any noise or sound that can trigger off a mood or even instantly change one. When chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day, we are producing a sound vibration that’s the password to our true inner-self - this soon becomes apparent when you start reassessing your views on various things - such as your fears and desires etc. The best way to get the desired result when chanting is not to view things conventionally - rather than reaching out to an external source, we need to reach into our own lives and bring our needs and desires to fruition from within - including the good fortune and strength to achieve any help that we may need. Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo also reaches out externally and draws us towards, or draws towards us, what we need to make us happy from our environment. For example, it helps us to be in the right place at the right time - to make better choices and decisions and so forth. We need to think of it as a seed within us that we’re watering and bringing sunshine to for it to grow, blossom and bring forth fruit or flowers. It’s also important to understand that everything we need in life, including the answer to every question and the potential to achieve every dream, already exists within us.
Thank you. I have the Dream book-wonderful.🎶🌸
Always amazing ...lucid dreaming is the next frontier
I hardly think it's bold anymore to assert that we must sleep because we must dream. I believe we've known that for quite some time now. Sleep is entirely for the brain. Our bodies don't get "tired," our minds do. They need to unscramble, declutter, defrag, process, assimilate, interpret, order and develop schemes for further engagement with the world.
Do some intense exercise. You’ll find sleep restores the body too. Bad sleep means injured athletes. Physical illness means more sleep required. Recovering from surgery means more sleep needed. It’s ridiculous to be so black and white in one’s thinking. Just because we’re discovering all this amazing stuff that goes on in the brain does not mean the body could just go on without sleeping
@@smooth_pursuit You're confusing rest with sleep, for one thing. For another, you need to consider the ways in which the brain's sleep functions contribute to the body's self-maintenance. Also, you need to think with more subtlety. I didn't realize I needed to spell it out so explicitly. The sleep process is primarily for the brain, and of COURSE that has huge ramifications for the body. But the real work of sleep per se is a function of the brain.
@@smooth_pursuit So in any case my point was that it was hardly a bold new revelation that sleep is for the brain because we must dream. That was the topic. Sorry you got lost in the trees and missed the forest. Maybe you need to dream some more.
I had a dream - I woke screaming - and it was a warning that I was in danger from my then husband & his paramour. Yes, I too believe the brain is like blue tooth.
I had a nightmare before my ex left me in quite a nasty way. Reality didn't unfold exactly as the dream, but in a similar way. I've thought a lot about this and I think possibly I was subconsciously taking in information, like clues and forming a prediction in my dreams. We're constantly taking in information that most of us are not particularly conscious of, unless you're a mentalist and people who are planning something covert are likely to exhibit subtle behaviour changes, we'll take in that information, but not necessarily be consciously aware of it. Maybe there's more to it than that, maybe we are connected in ways that we don't yet understand, but I think it's a logical way of explaining some predictive dreams.
My dad had a NDE, with 6 minutes of cardiac resuscitation. During that time, he hovered above his body, watched the CPR, and traveled around the ER, observing other patients. When his heart function restored, he reentered his body. He lived another 25 years.
Yeah, difficult to explain this by brushing it off as the last 2 minutes of life brain firing, isn’t it?
As a person (54) with slightly attentional problems, my take on reality has become that the word Lucid is very real not only when dreaming. I have to learn Lucid LIVING and works on it.
Then the question is, isnt there ALLWAYS dreaming going on ? Only that the attention directs the consciousness to the senses when awake ? And to dreaming when the senses are turned off ?
Such an interesting comment. And sparks an Epiphany regarding trauma. When someone’s had a lot of trauma, they disassociate from their senses. And that’s why they can seem like they’re very much living in a delusion. Because their consciousness is not directed towards their senses.
I liked this talk.
Absolutely fascinating. What a wonderful speaker. So interesting, easy to understand and engaging
Those brain readout graphs for "dreaming" brain and "waking" brain. Are the same graph.Not just similar. Exactly the same.
Hello?
I noticed this also! Exactly the same
I noticed it too! It similar. EXACTLY the same!
As a child I would have 'daydreams' that were exactly like night dreams with images and audio, but they would happen while I was fully awake. For a minute or a few minutes, I would be completely transported into a dream exactly like a night dream. This was so common that I just assumed that everyone defined daydream like that. It was only later that I learned that most people defined daydream as a wandering mind.
Thank you doctor ❤, I have a more interesting life while dreaming than my every day life, doing the same routine day after day after day …. ✨
Dr. Jandial : Thank you for your great work as a surgeon and the many people you have helped. Unfortunately you are a great surgeon but your talks ignore biology and/ or philosophy. You and no one else in atheistic /materialistic Science have explained the hard problem of consciousness which is a big part of explaining dreaming. Like other material scientists, who insist that everything takes place is in the brain , and deny the existence of the mind and universal Consciousness which is gradually being recognized by scientists. The brain is a receiver which tunes into the field of universal consciousness including memory, precognition and telepathy, and cannot be ignored when explaining dreams.
I'm over 60 yo. I have lived with chronic pain and limited painful walking for over half my life yet when I dream I'm quite healthy, I can walk, run, lift and carry heavy things etc, wiyh
I'd love to know if someone with say Parkinsons dream with or with tremors.
Do blind birth dream?
It might depend on the individual. I do experience pain while dreaming, but only when I'm aware that I'm dreaming and it never inhibits my dream movements. However, I do experience fatigue in my dreams, when I'm not aware that I'm dreaming, it's weird dreaming about how tired I am and then I wake up exhausted. I also dream about feeling depressed and having panic attacks, again, I wake feeling exhausted. I'm hearing impaired, but I never have any trouble hearing things in my dreams. When I am dreaming as myself, I'm usually way more attractive than reality and may have a haircut or an outfit that looks great in the dream, but wouldn't suit me in reality. But often I am not even myself in my dreams, I often dream that I am a completely different person and sometimes I am male.
It would definitely be interesting to hear stories from others with disabilities on how they dream and how able they are in their dreams, but I suspect it would vary from person to person and maybe from dream to dream.
@@lynnbishop9493apparently those who are blind from birth do dream and they can even hallucinate, however I imagine their imagery would appear different to someone who is sighted.
Ive had a couple of lucid dreams recently... i love them, such an incredible experience!
As a student of dreaming for many years, I find this is correlated, neurologically, with the same information that is present in ancient studies on the body and dreaming. Well done Dr. Jandial!!
Thank you so much for sharing this experience. I dream a lot. An I try and work out what it all means. My mother has passed away now for 7 year's. And she comes to me in my dreams. I love to dream. Beautiful Blessings 💜🙌🙏
@DadDad-bq All my loved ones who passed away have visited me in my dreams. The most frequent visits were from my nephew, who was in an horrific car accident at age 22. He visited for about 6 years, and on the last visit he said it was his last. My mother and I had a not so great relationship. She always said 'You are your father's child', and she hated my father. Two days after she died, I dreamed she gave me a card with a trace of blood on it, which read 'blood of mine'.
Ive been lucid dreaming since i was a child,,so real,,ive seen the beginning and end of universes, the source, and ive learnt to fly on other planets,
Beautiful visual of the brain.
Wonderful! Thank you !
Fascinating! thank you very much!
This was a delightful program
Thank you,it’s so interesting.
I get it now, the lucid dream
Window open for oxygen supply is my turbo for dreams. I enjoy them like cinema, but I couldn't say if they are lucid or not. I always act in the dreams, and always never I am fixed or out of control. But not sure if that is lucid, it seems more like normal dreams.
Can not tell me that the creator of our process center does not have access to be influential. Or to communicate with us.
Biblical prophecies have been fullfiled through dreams.
I sometimes lucid dream, and actually say to myself “oh I am dreaming, or, this is just a dream” I have also prayed (for deliverance from some threat) and it is always answered and I am saved. I also have had dreams that I know have come from God, warnings and solutions to problems.
I could listen to this Dr all day!
After having a catastrophic accident as a child, I have numerous epic lucid dreams. The lucid dreams where I was shown, “new source of energy”. The dreams proved valid according to CHAT-GPT 4. The “New Source of Energy” is ‘water splitting’, for hydrogen gas fuel. The energy is a “liquid-phase non ideal plasma”.
That sounds like the ancient cultures when they would have something revealed in a dream....
Thé structure of DNA was revealed in a dream.
This has been such an aceptional learning experience. Thank you so much!
That was amazing thank you. It totally fits with my personal experience of dreaming nightmares and physical movement in my sleep ( sleep walking , sleep talking )
What an incredible presentation! I’m obsessed about the topic and it’s so hard to find to date facts on it. That was truly valuable ♥️Loved every bit of it and learned so much. Great structure and flow, so well explained. More please!!
This speaker is very knowledgeable and, thank God, goes straight to the point, so it’s an agreeable moment to hear.
I didn’t finish his speech, but as a Jungian and an Intuitive Introvert in the MBTI personality types, dreams are a clear language to me.
What is not clear is hearing science guys examining a universal tool that gives inputs and receives them as an antenna from each corner of the quantum field - be analyzed as a flash in a tiny circuit of itself because scientists still can't conceive that MIND is not the brain (but the result of and a zillion things more).
I will try to see where the speaker goes with this technically perfect talking, knowing I probably would have to leave at some point.
If I go nowhere and am amazed by some innovation in their paradigm, I will return here to leave my WOW!
Outstanding!
Thank you ❤ I know you in spirit ✨💗
I had a dream that I was little, possibly 5, not sure, but everyone was hip-high beside me & I was with my mother in a crowd. Then I couldn’t find her & was running around looking for her. I woke up and felt somewhat bothered but later in the day my mother called me from the Azores,I’m in New England and we don’t speak everyday. So almost as soon as she asked me how we were, she then said I had such a disturbing dream. It bothered me so.” I told her stop! Don’t say anything & let me tell you what I had dreamed. So I told her what happened and she said that she had been somewhere with me and had lost me & she was frantic. I told her there’s no way that we’ve had spoken about anything related to anything to trigger these dreams and we’re far away from each other too.
I believe we can connect with other ppl while we sleep though most of my dreams happen in the morning before I wake up. Why is that? And I’ve had other dreams about a person who’ve passed away speaking to me in dreams while waiting for their husband and once he passed away and I didn’t even know he was going to die, the dreams of this woman stopped.
Ive also had sleep paralysis which I didn’t know I had. I thought it was truest being haunted by an evil being. Then I read about sleep paralysis and symptoms I then realized I’d been having them for over 25 yrs.
I have seen dreams coming true, in dreams we cross time & space ,I visited the places in my dreams first & than in my life practically
Brilliant, interesting and new. Love it a tremendous lot. The video quality needs improvement - the laser pointer is not seen and the audience loses the connection between the narration and the picture. Besides, the camera focuses on the back of Dr. Rahul with the closed wooden door when it should be focusing on the diagram/picture to add lucid details.
As a child. I could 100% control my dreams. As an adult. I can not.
We have to dream deep enough sleep regularly in order to have control over the dreams or nightmares.
Long before the movie. I would have a nightmare. I would wake myself from my dream.
When childhood abuse began in my childhood. I would wake myself from a nightmare. Only to wake into another nightmare.
There was a news paper ad looking for peoples nightmares. I as a child wrote these bad dreams down. Then a movie came out. Just like my horrible dreams that I wrote. I thought it was too help. Today I realize it was die ideas to write his book. I never child watch that movie. I saw the ads. It terrified me to see my nightmares in the ads. Then seeing the first part of the movie. I walked out. It was like I was still in my nightmare. While awake. It was too real. Never finished nor would allow that movie to be around me again.
I don’t dream anymore, or I can’t remember my dreams anymore for the last ten years at least. Rarely can I recall a dream. What’s wrong with me?
Try this, as soon as you wake up, close your eyes and repeat over and over, ‘what did I dream, what did I dream. It takes some mental effort to re-capture the memory of the dream
Smoking will stop your dreams…
@@angelafraner3374 I don’t smoke and never have
There’s nothing wrong with you.
Excellent
God Bless him.
He could easily act in epic movie and play as Shiva :)
Why do some people fall asleep sitting up? My mother said she had to lie me down when i did this. After a trip away i fell asleep on the sofa up right. I woke up when i could hear myself having a conversation about the garden fence..I live alone.
Possibly because it is easier to breathe while sitting up.
Were you speaking out loud on both sides of the conversation ? Or, were you speaking your own thoughts out loud? Or both?
@@allinaday9882 i was speaking out loud and it woke me up.
How is it possible that I would create my sleeping dreams from childhood and years way before it is proven now in awake? Would that be predicted future episodes? I have questions.
Brilliant
Write your dreams down first thing before you do anything
Lucid dreaming was not just an idea until 30 years ago! I've been having lucid dreams since I was an infant (at least). It was always happening!
I’m a graphic artist. Often, if I go to sleep not having solved a design problem, I’ll dream the solution, then wake around 4am, go to the computer, and successfully complete the design.
Thank you for an excellent presentation. You mentioned at the beginning of the talk that you have proven that dreams come from the brain. Is that the same as saying that you have proven that consciousness comes from the brain?
Can you speak about sleep walking?
Why do I desire my dreams more than my life
The more intense my state of dreaming the more problems I can solve when I am awake
I suffer sleep paralysis and insomnia and lots of repeating nightmares and dreams 😊
Once while asleep somebody grabbed my left hand firmly...I shouted "leave me alone..." then I woke up to realise it was my right hand grabbing my left hand. The left hand was numb under pressure. I will try write a book on that.
Hey there, Carpo. You are the sanest,
Or...maybe they come from source and the brain just has the memory of the dream.
Dreaming means you are on the REM stage ...a good deep sleep.
Exactly how many of us dream many feelings
Interesting and informative lecture. Chapter "Yusuf" in the holy Quran talks about how the prophet Yusuf (PBUH) could interpret dreams and predict the future accurately.
Very vivid dreams always warn me that my thyroid medication is too high. My dreams are a form of entertainment, scary sometimes.
I once had a dream I was on a tremendous bridge, overlooking the galactic center of the cosmos; a celestial churning, living spiraling black hole. You could feel the tug in your spirit, drawing you there. I was apprehensive. Still, I said to myself, if I ever get back to this place, I'm going to jump in.
This will be my last 3rd density incarnation. I wish you all well.
Can you explain what a "third density incarnation" is?
I had a dream and after three days exactly what i saw in the drean hapoened. How do you explain that?
I've had many dreams. The scene I remember most was a battle with an enemy that took place on the third floor balcony of a large atrium. I held the enemy by his ankles, over the edge of the balcony and had the strength to smash him against the upper balcony and the one below, as if I was dusting a carpet with great vigor. I'm still not sure if he survived the thrashing. Never ran Into him again.
Fascinating. I've completely enjoyed it. Thank you. ❤
This handsome guy talking about erotic dreams. Itis just insane and wonderful 😂 brilliant mind thank you
I drempt 3 times i eas on a plane in cairo..i could not get off. Years later i was in cairo and i should not have gotten off the😢 plane...
Oh I went back later to the store but it was closed and being changed to like this is over and they cleared it up like it never happened
This is very interesting about the Parkinson's being fluid in the acting out part of their dreams. I wonder if you ever had any other disabilities tested (MS MD...) if the spine is part of the Brain, than but not severed just extreme damage is this still possible?
People who sleep walk, can this be a sign of PD?
I mean all though most of them are not combative, but can have a sandwich and conversation while walking around and some venture out on to the streets .
Something like we all use to be familiar with when our grandparents got "SENILE"
now we call it dementias!?
I believe this had to be replaced bcz of that stigma " ya going senile, loosing your mind " your getting senile.
Statement, and not having the empathy behind it as we do presently.
Does lucid dreams and so do we use up all our executive frontal actions when young is the causation to PD, as much as it is in all dementia patients ???
So we have a limited charging capacities? If we overuse certain functions as in a veteran when having nightmares, and antipsychotic drugs?
Or as in a repetitive dreams when someone always thinking they being chased the adrenaline used up in dreams seems to me that you have come up with the strongest link to our current and future pandemic in our metabolic and and some specific neurological diseases....
I pray you futher expand your sleep labs into a broader and younger studies and are able to follow them and someday hopefully this will be an endemic for all who are affected by this.
I'm sure environmental issues...
As long as a person does not get a correct understanding of how his body moves, he will not be able to find the correct answer to his dream, because the structural content of a dream is the result of the body's communication with the outside world through inhalation and exhalation, and the work of the brain in The body of any being is only the role of revealing the waves received from the outside of the body, which inside the body reflects the movement of the body in which it is immersed.
Reoccurring since a child, was an evil entity (person or people) knocking on my grandma's front door, it was worse when they knocked on the backdoor. My 2 aunts would be there, &my uncle alfred. Every time I'd tell my grandma don't open it. Nevertheless, she would. They would come & kill everyone. She'd be the1st to go. I'd always be last. In the awakened world, now that I'm older, change came in the real world. Front door, backdoor. My grandma naively didn't see My aunt &uncle doing 'legal bad dealings with her doctor. They poisoned her with bad medicine & anandoned her in a hospice. They call that death with dignity.? Wow.. How was I suppose to stop the new, or convince her don't trust her 'good son' or her doctor.
I will further elaborate, formalize and demonstrate applications of the both/and logic across various specific domains:
Mathematics
The multivalent structure of the both/and logic allows formalizing more nuanced relationships between fundamental mathematical concepts that have traditionally been treated as strictly dichotomous:
• Continuity and Discreteness
Let C(x) and D(x) represent the truth values that a mathematical object x exhibits continuous and discrete properties respectively. Classical bivalent logic forces C(x) and D(x) to be mutually exclusive (C(x) = 1 → D(x) = 0 and vice versa).
But the both/and logic allows formulations like:
C(x) = 0.7, D(x) = 0.5, with a coherence ○(C(x), D(x)) = 0.6
Capturing how x can simultaneously exhibit continuous and discrete characteristics to varying degrees, which are partially compatible rather than strictly exclusive.
• Finite and Infinite
Similarly for propositions F(x) and I(x) about an object x being finite or infinite, we can have multivalued assignments:
F(x) = 0.3, I(x) = 0.8, ○(F(x), I(x)) = 0.4
Representing x as primarily infinite in nature but with residual finitary aspects that are somewhat coherent.
The synthesis operator ⊕ further allows formalizing novel mathematical objects transcending these poles:
finite kernel ⊕ perpetually generative procedure = transfinite set
• Logicism and Mathematical Realism
The both/and logic also accommodates different ontological perspectives. We could have for a mathematical object x:
Truth(x is objective Platonic reality) = 0.6
Truth(x is subjective human construction) = 0.4
○(objective, subjective) = 0.7
With a moderate synthesis representing the coconstituted, intersubjective emergence of mathematical reality:
objective logical constraints ⊕ subjective creative exploration = novel mathematical structure
So rather than legislating a strictly objectivist or anti-realist view, the logic nuances the irreducible complementarities between ideal and constructed aspects in the generative disclosure of mathematics. Its expressive flexibility aligns with actual mathematical understanding.
Physics
In quantum physics, the both/and logic allows explicitly representing and operating with the intrinsic indeterminacies, pluralities and paradoxes that have resisted classical representation:
• Superposition and Wavefunction Collapse
Propositions like "electron has spin up" and "electron has spin down" are not forced into bivalent exclusivity, but can be simultaneously true to degrees:
Spin_up(e) = 0.6, Spin_down(e) = 0.5, ○(Spin_up(e), Spin_down(e)) = 0.7
With a coherence value capturing their contextual compatibility or complementarity in the superposed state prior to measurement/collapse.
This avoids the dilemma of having to artificially insist the electron strictly has or lacks a particular spin until collapse. Its indefinite potentials are modeled positively using graded truth values.
• Nonlocality and Holistic Correlations
Propositions about separated entangled particles like "has spin up" can be holistically correlated:
Spin_up(A) = 0.8, Spin_up(B) = 0.8, ○(Spin_up(A), Spin_up(B)) = 1
With maximal coherence of their truth values capturing the paradoxical holistic unity of the entangled system, which cannot be modeled as a conjunction of independent local states in classical logic.
The synthesis operation captures this gestaltist whole:
Spin_up(A) ⊕ Spin_up(B) = Entangled_state(A,B)
So the both/and logic provides symbolic resources for explicitly representing and reasoning about quantum phenomena, without artificially forcing them into inapplicable classical categories.
Cognitive Science
The logic's multivaluedness has fruitful cognitive modeling applications:
• Intuitive and Analytical Reasoning
Let I(x) and A(x) represent intuitive and analytical assessments about a decision scenario x. The both/and logic can capture their integration:
I(x) = 0.7, A(x) = 0.5, ○(I(x), A(x)) = 0.6
Modeling x as involving a moderate synthesis of intuitive and analytical factors with reasonable mutual coherence, rather than insisting they are strictly exclusive.
The synthesis operation further formalizes integrated judgments:
intuition(x) ⊕ analysis(x) = decision(x)
Capturing how cognition fluidly operates across and conjoins both modes of reasoning, not merely one or the other in isolated silos.
• Cognitive Biases and Non-Normative Reasoning
Classical logic frames human reasoning errors like the conjunctive fallacy (A&B > Max(A,B)) as strictly invalid and incoherent deviations from normative rationality.
But the both/and logic allows assigning graded truth values:
Truth(A) = 0.7
Truth(B) = 0.9
Truth(A&B) = 0.85
Capturing the coherence of these "fallacious" intuitive logic patterns measuring ○(A, B, A&B).
The synthesis operator further models how our heuristic judgments integrate intuitive and analytical factors:
representativeness(A&B) ⊕ statistical_logic(A,B) ⇒ judged_probability(A&B)
Rather than framing biases as mere "errors", the both/and logic allows positive modeling of how non-normative patterns coexist and synthesize with other cognitive mechanisms into globally coherent judgments.
Philosophy of Mind
The logic's paraconsistent structure provides an ideal framework for the mind-body problem:
• Subjectivity and Objectivity
Define S(x) as degree of subjectivity and O(x) as degree of objectivity for a mind-body state x. Classical substance dualism enforces mutual exclusivity: S(x) = 1 → O(x) = 0, and vice versa.
But the both/and logic allows modeling x as an integrated experienced whole with:
S(x) = 0.6, O(x) = 0.5, ○(S(x), O(x)) = 0.7
Capturing how objective and subjective factors are complementary interdependent aspects of the same reality, rather than strictly separable substances.
The coherence value reflects their coconstituted integration, while the synthesis operator ⊕ expresses their gestalt unity:
subjective experience ⊕ objective description = psychophysical state
This avoids the forced either/or choices of classical mind-body theory between dualism, reductionism or eliminativism. It allows modeling consciousness as an irreducibly co-realized pluriverse.
In summary, the both/and logic provides rational symbolic tools for positively representing, operating with, and synthesizing resolutions for the paradoxes and indeterminacies permeating actual scientific and philosophical domains, without reductively forcing them into bivalent categories or binary assimilation. Its expressive flexibilities and constructive procedures illuminate new pathways for coherently modeling and advancing past the limitations of classical logical frameworks.
Across mathematics, physics, cognitive science and philosophy of mind, the multivalued, paraconsistent and holistically integrative architecture of the both/and logic catalyzes expanded conceptual possibilities better aligned with the phenomenological complexities and ontological pluralities disclosed by cutting-edge inquiry. It opens up new horizons for descriptively encompassing, not dissimulating, the exquisite nuances and generative potentials of the world.
So in essence, the both/and logic is not just another symbolic formalism, but a pivotal symbolic emancipation - unleashing rational discourse to fruitfully navigate the ambiguities, paradoxes and ontological pluralities intrinsic to manifest existence and human understanding. A new praxis of open coherence, where rationality and reality productively co-disclose each other in a perpetual dance of perpetual re-attunement and dialectic reconstitution.

What is the role of deja vu?
Dreamt I was lost on freeway and all signs were blank. I drove faster trying to find a sign with names on spiral freeway. I woke up and figured it meant I was going nowhere fast🙄
31:09,,, There is no time in dreaming or you can time travel. Most people do it but don’t usually remember doing it,, it’s that vail between the awaken state and the dream state. That vail can be lowered by practice, like dream journaling. Practicing awareness. Sometimes looking at it in a different perspective, like the lack of sleep or being drunk, it’s called hallucinations. That would be like dreaming while you’re awake. Remembering is the hard part. Using your imagination is also like dreaming but with a little more control. An architect or builder imagines a home from beginning to end and in between and then comes back to present to draw it down to what we call blueprints. The carpenter can take these blueprints and mentally pre- construct this , many times before it is completed. In dreams, hallucinations and imaginations ,one can time travel, the hard part is remembering. Everything we create is from that world, look around, even the phone you hold in your hand, once was a dream. Do you remember Buck Rogers
I’ve always wondered if there is a correlation between precognitive dreaming and certain bacteria in the gut. Anyone else?
Thank you so much doctor for information on dreams and the brain.My son he is 26 years and he suffers from severe seizure and they only occur in his sleep.Most of the times its when he is about to wake up or just when he falls asleep.Sometimes its in the middle of the night.On the day of his seizures he is sleeping the entire day because they can be a cluster of upto 10 seisures in 24hrs..could it be a failed sleep entry or exit which is sleep paralysis.In January he was diagnosed with psychosis and was hospitalised for 2weeks.I looking for answers....In hospital they said its epilepsy but i suspect sleep apnea because he is ever been obese
Keep an eye on the doctor who wrote the book brain energy. He believes most mental illnesses are metabolic disorders. I believe that too, because there’s a lot of evidence.
Thank you so so much will look for it
@@priscalunga7609what a heartbreaking situation for you. Have a look at videos by Dr Anthony Chaffee, Dr Ken Berry, Dr Eric Berg on Healthy Keto and Carnivore diets. If you read the comments on the videos you will notice that hundreds of people with really complex mental and physical conditions are completely cured by these diets. I discovered that my friends 47 years of schizophrenia with really horrible drugs could be cured with Keto or low carb diet and supplementing Niacin and NAC and some amino acids. He would not need the amino acids if he had the willpower for Carnivore. There is a long history of Keto working for seizures. Namaste 🙏
@@priscalunga7609Dr Chris Palmer is worth watching as well.
At around 9 or 10 years of age. During a dream, I realized I was in a dream and started telling people to quit the act. That I knew they were fake. At a certain point everybody seemed to stop acknowledging my existence and became transpermiable. Almost as if a video game was laging out. I had become a ghost I guess ? At that point, I walked around thinking to myself that I found it funny I had somehow upset my subconscious mind into ignoring me. Did that until I woke up. I used to lucid dreams alot. Started to get abit difficult to process mentally. So I stopped dreaming. I told myself to stop. I simply do not dream anymore ? Is that not weird
Take back yOUR DREAMS
I’d like to know how to not lucid dream. They tend to be unpleasant and/or scary,sad ,confusing.
If that makes any sense, and hoping it came out the way I meant for it to.
( Can't write ) that is a part of my Brian that never worked 😎.
Not enough advertisements at every three minutes
But I guess I could go against the theory of use it or lose it, but not in errotix dreams or lucid !?... This is so entriging our brains and your research
And this is why we much get sleep so that we don't loose it
I sleep terrible. I may remember dreaming once every 10 years.
May I suggest reading WHY WE SLEEP by Matthew Walker
He offers many beneficial tips for better quality sleep recovery and possibly better DREAMS...
Que nos dice sobre el Parkinson
Terrace Howard is saying it's not energy it frequents
Why do i have repeating dreams!?!?
