No one really knows what dreams are mate... I think they are an alternate reality that we are able to visit when we are asleep.. When we are "awake",we are locked to the reality we are assigned.........

Dreams are just how our brains detox. All the junk you think about and worry about gets played out by your mind when you sleep.

I've even had the same dream more than once, about 8 years apart.

Wrong....... When our physical self passes,our spirit is free to move about...... Alot of spirits do not goto the light so they can stick around......

Got any evidence of that?

Re: Have you ever been visited by the spirit of a loved one in your dreams?

Some people think that we have a material body and a separate soul/psyche and others believe that we are matter alone.

However, there is a third theory that is gaining traction called panpsychism:

Quote:

A discussion about the idea that some kind of consciousness is present not just in our human brains but throughout the universe, right down to cells or even electrons. This is panpsychism and its proponents argue it offers a compelling alternative to those who say we are nothing but matter, like machines, and to those who say we are both matter and something else we might call soul. It is a third way. Critics argue panpsychism is implausible, an example of how not to approach this problem, yet interest has been growing widely in recent decades partly for the idea itself and partly in the broader context of understanding how consciousness arises.

I've watched and read a lot of sci-fi and fantasy and that sound like something you'd find in them. Sorry but load of waffle to me.

No I can’t, I’ve lost close family, and in the aftermath of their passing I’ve had other family members telling me of strange occurrences. I’ve never witnessed anything paranormal.

You’d think in this age of CCTV everywhere and everybody carrying HD cameras in their pockets that we’d have some decent evidence of ghosts, paranormal activity, UFOs, crypto-zoology etc. but we don’t and what’s on You Tube etc is clearly staged.

They’re maybe a handful of true unexplainable videos but they don’t amount to compelling evidence.

After someone dies, those left behind are desperate to witness something, and they’ll latch onto anything for meaning.

Re: Have you ever been visited by the spirit of a loved one in your dreams?

I am at a disadvantage because I have to consider that a brain injury that I have and the multitude of medication that I take fir various things might affect me in a dream state. However, the friend who had a similar dream on the same night the other day has no such injury and doesn't have to take any medication.

I can fully understand those who haven't had proof disbelieving this because it sounds out of this world because it is!
