@songoftheheart - i think it boils down to all that the subconscious has to deal with, maintaining the construct, reality. thats a lot to hold still. ive often thought of the brain(meat body self) as a shock absorber. there is so much input, all the variants of light,sound,gravity etc.ad infinitum. that we truly can not process it on a linear plane. frankly i dont believe that my head/brain holds an image, it helps me process it but the image is not in my head. an example, picture an airplane, where is it? my guess is that you looked up in to the sky of your memory, then you had a variety to choose from. each in different locations, some maybe on the ground near a hanger? i propose that the mind encircles us. and in fact it is created around us into a solid reality. that we can and do change at will.
@longshadow618 - I read about a woman who had a NDE, and while she was “dead” she was living out a completely different life in another dimension. Lived a full life there while she was only gone for a bit here. To think of alternate realities pushes my comfortably set boundaries. To say that we are the dream…you’re stretching me bit by bit, but I think ultimately you have a better grasp of possibilities than I do, simply because of your personal experiences. I have one personal experience of something more, and have read enough to believe things are not quite as they seem, and since our conversation the other day I tell myself each morning that there is more to everything than what I see in front of me, but still…you have to admit that I am a product of a society where everything is neat and in its place, and there is nothing out of the ordinary, nothing out of the box. Although I’m happy to see that science is now realizing that there are new frontiers they always used to say didn’t exist.

loving that first one. it says everything. thank you ed and albert.
Ok, I have to admit, I like the Tolle quote. And the first quote as well. And I am amazed at the amount of time our subconscious has our thoughts!
@songoftheheart - so, mayhaps we really are just the dream.
@longshadow618 - still can’t wrap my head around it…
