RE: Psychology: Exploring the Strange and Occasionally Mysterious Messages in Dreams

in The LIFESTYLE LOUNGE5 years ago

Awesome essay! Maybe everything is happening at once, and we who are stuck in only these four dimensions (including time) can't access everything. Sounds like you sure can, at least in your dreams. This is very cool stuff you have going on.

Just because science can't measure or detect something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It just means that we can't measure it yet.

I believe that it all starting going downhill when we started measuring things. With measurement comes judgment, separation, envy and the like.

Sort:  

One of the things that worries me a little about science in our day and age is that it seems to have become less flexible; as I learned it in school, science was about discovery and exploration of possibilities and nowadays it feels more and more like the purpose of science has shifted towards establishing inflexible rules against which — as you suggest — judgment happens. Which has an unfortunately subtext of religious dogma to it.

Exploration and discovery requires us to be able to read between the lines. And to be more open to possibilities.
