I feel like my dreams are parallel/alternate realities. Whenever I dream, its usually just a normal day but im in a place ive never been to before. Im with people i know and and we just go along a normal day comfortable in the place were at. I can also feel touch sometimes more than others but i even remember the feeling the following day. I’ve never lucid dreamed at all and this past month, my dreams have felt like a normal day that just wouldn’t happen in “this reality”. anybody else?

What if we didnt randomly wake up from our dreams but we “failed” it. Failed as in we didnt complete a specific task or you died in your dream. Also when we die in a dream it sends you back out of it and you no longer remember what happened. Almost like a puzzle of dreams and and when we complete our final dream you die, and remember all of our dreams and put the pieces together.

I'm not a great writer and a little childish sounding for a almost middle aged lady but Im a bit on the Spectrum, have some mental issues and kinda thwarted much of my growth with drugs which I've been clean from now six years next month. Hear me out though cause I've been thinking on this alot ever since I have started to Lucid dream. Slots been in my mind there awhile but pieces seem to come together somehow now.

Once upon a time I used to love doing acid. Then one day I got some triple dipped stuff and took like 7 hits of it, that's like 21 hits I think. I ended up losing like 700 dollars, my pants, my pride, my dignity and my complete sense of self. This was back in my early twenties, I'm 40 now. I was in Waukegan in IL at some friends at their rather delapitated apartment complex but it had this pond in the middle and these geese. So I chased the geese almost straight into the pond and that's when it happened... I heard God speak.

Basically he told me that nothing is real but that which is going on right now. Our loved ones? Our possessions? They don't exist. All that matters and is real are the moments and the memories that are made. Also something about triangles and my cousin Leandras name in relation, lol.

Anyways the point that I'm coming to is that I've had an epiphany. I used to believe that God created us in order to feel such things as pleasure and pain, lust and hate. He created us to suffer and to learn and he created us because he was lonely.

What if there is no universe at all? What if all there is, is this being we call God? What if he is the only of his kind and so expansive that he takes up all of reality as could possibly be known? Without others he wouldn't be able to feel grief or love or pain or hate. So the bible says he created the earth. But it doesn't really go into how. It just says that first God created The Word I think which I heard is the Bible but have also heard is Magic since Magic is something that is vocally passed on from one to the next. If you can't tell, I'm not exactly Christian. I was raised as such but am what I believe is called Ignostic? Wait, I just looked that up and it's definitely not right, I guess it's closer it Ietism but not really quite? I believe that all Religions worship the same Diety or Energy in different ways under different names. Like I believe that all Religion is true in it's way and also incorrect and maared by Mens views but I do believe that people like Jesus and Buddah existed/exist. Is there even a name for that?

Anyways... What could this Being possibly do to create a universe as expansive as this? If he took up everything and where than where would we go? He wouldn't be in Heaven above like they say, we would have to be inside of him for us to have a place to somehow fit.

Which then led me to this hypothathas. What if God have none and nothing, knowing and being all yet nothing at all as well simply in it's own way laid down to sleep? What if our exsistance as we know it is nothing other than some Ultimite all mighty Powers Lucid dream? I have heard that we are one collective soul, that each of us is a part of God itself. Jesus says himself in the Bible that we can do as he does and manifestation of our desires has already been proven as real. I've also heard that we all have the capability to tap into all of the knowledge that exists if we only knew how and that their are some wise guru'swho do. Other dimensions have been found outside our own or so they say and all time is a circle, constantly turning in on itself that exists all at once rather than in a straight line.

How could any of this be true other then inside of a dream? This doesn't mean as I first thought when I was tripping, that I alone am real and it's all in my mind. That scared me so much that I was sobbing for hours. I don't get along with people much as they drain me but I have a deep love for others and care about them alot. If everyone I knew and loved was my own figments it would devastate me. But no, we ALL are a collective dream of the same energy or being which is why so many religions and myths carry the same stories and why science and magic both can be done. We are ALL a part of God because we exist within his mind!

I call our Father the Dreamer now. I still believe in reincarnation and getting closer to One with the Dreamer again as our spirit perfects but I am not as scared to die anymore, especially since in my family we sometimes die rather young. I think of it now as simply awakening again from this dream. I also deal better with grief as well because even though I'd heard people say that we live on in others memories I believe that some of our own dreams are further dimensions and when we dream of our loved ones passed they are just as alive as they were with us once before just now somewhere upon another dimension or plane.

The only thing that frightens me though is when I think a little to deep on it. What would happen if the Dreamer Awoke? Is that the Big Bang? Is it as simple as a fading back into his own reality that could be the ending blink of us all?

Please don't make to much fun of my idea, I honestly believe this may be true! I'm a rather introverted sort of person and spend alot of time dreaming myself. Any serious idea's or queries would be welcome, I'd love to hear your points of view! If you think I'm just batshit crazy, that's fine as well, lol. I know this may not be a theory that fits very well with a whole lotta people out there in the world.

What if dreams are a coping mechanism for your emotions in which you unravel emotional chemical reactions from a certain time frame and discover underlined details about emotion based thoughts or actions not conceptualized on the forefront of your central consciousness?

Looking for opinions and insight to revise and make this theory possibly more plausible.

"I'm starting to improve my skills in having OBEs, and Lucid Dreams, however I am also able to enter multiverses of my city, friends, and technology, it's crazy. There's a whole plot in my dreams. I reached a Universe that astonished me, somehow I thought Morden one of my previous incarnations took place in Universe 1, but there is a Universe before him, and that incarnation is named Midiri. My subconscious connected that to Atari, I saw a list of incarnations. 1. Midiri 2.Morden 3.Murunta 4.Maruti 5. Mares and so on, I still have cuts in between my memory but yes, I went to the first world, and it was a flat earth disk, a bridge leading to it, and weird thing was my Father was there, and he said he was going to give them the knowledge of all Universes, and even a Book of Augustus was there, that I picked up. Crazy... Just wondering if any of you could try to meditate or Lucid Dream to see if there is a Universe before Midiri, because I am creating the conceptual character Oavum! I am trying to draw these characters. Turns out in the dreamscape I am Multiverses away from those dimensions. More than an Omniverse maybe. However these old dimensions rub against the new ones to generate new realities. THIS IS AMAZING! This could describe timeline leakages like Mandela Effects."

Our experiences are like a Boltzman Brain, creating a past and future, every life significance be it emotional, from low to high depth, and big points in our life, there are snapshots. We undulate through a Universe that has a time-lag, and time dilation but we don't notice until we get extremely Lucid. Our dreams project a story far more interesting than The Heroes Journey or any psychological archetypal journey. If you Lucid Dream and compare the timelines, compare The Multiverses... from my experience I learn things at younger ages do things the previous self did at an older age. In Primer there was a huge paradox in their adventures. But this is different, it's a hallucination within a hallucination, but each is different in its own way, and can depersonalize the true person who is awake. Trying to be like an old version of yourself creates huge confusion and personality dilation. The acts in you are the leaks of the past, but also the strength to move forward. It's like the episode in Doctor Who where the Twelfth Doctor kept coming back after dying to break the wall to the other side. So there it is, a Boltzman within a Boltzman within a Boltzman, forever! And the fun part is, you get to find the trails/trials that led you here and now!

In my dream I was myself, only much wealthier. I was touring an asylum for some reason and everything was fine. There were guards that maintained order, but for the most part all of the patients/inmates of the asylum seemed calm or hidden in their rooms. The building itself looked very metallic and was candle lit. During my dream there was suddenly a rapid change in the atmosphere of the dream. Suddenly all of the guards were urging me to leave saying that "he's" loose. The clean building was rapidly dissolving into a run down asylum as if it had always been run down/ forgotten looking. I climbed through the air ducts trying to escape only to be knocked down as the vent collapsed. I tried to scamble away only to be grabbed by a patient and forced to face them. When I looked at the patient I saw myself looking down at me with a large grin as the other me stabbed myself. After that the dream ended. Does anyone know what the dream likely meant?
