      I have no direct answer to your question, but what you say about imagination and sensory perception is interesting. While I also see these two phenomena on two different planes of experience, I did not know that the physical representation of them is the same in the brain.

      Digging further into it, I believe that there is no such thing as 'outside of the mind', everything is mind. Would this universe be, if it were not perceived? Mind or consciousness is the foundation of all within existence ('I am is the name of God' (and everyone/thing is 'I', the same one actually)), so whether it is visualization, sensory perception or even dream state is irrelevant, because they are (equivalent) results of you existing.

      What I'm saying is that there are no things 'stored' outside ourselves to choose from to experience, but you are the direct and self sustaining cause of all experience, invoking the universe out of nothing in every now that you create. But I have no clue on the actual mechanics of this, which is what you are asking about . So perhaps this is off topic, but somehow the OP made me wanna write this
      It doesn't matter whether this is a dream or not.
      It's a beautiful gift anyways!

      I read a quote which is, "There is nothing which can come into human experience, Which does not come as thought." In other words, All things come into a person's life as a thought. I thought my way here, I thought my way to a gas station, I thought my way to having a garden, Etc.

      Though I get the feeling I'm repeating something in this topic, Perhaps the quote will be helpful to someone.
