I began to think of how real a lucid dream could be and how some say that you can never be too sure what is real and what is not. I also tried to fanthom how I could possibly have the mindset in a dream that my physical body is lying in bed, so I practiced---imagining a greater, perhaps more real, being that is resting while I am just floating around in his/her mind made me think a lot of religion.

It got me thinking to the fictional characters that exist in a dream. What if they were able to have a mind of their own, but were restricted to the limits that the dreamer's mind had set up. For example, if I truly think it is impossible to walk on water in a dream, I, and no one else in my dream, will do so.

So it's pretty crazy to wrap your head around the abstract idea that we could all be in a dream of someone. We can all be the fictional characters of a dreamer that some may refer to as "God", and that the laws that govern what we are able to do and not do (such as flying, breathing under water, ect.) are merely this dreamer's doubt that it is possible.

Even crazier to think: What if this dreamer became lucid? Would he be considered Jesus? Has he/she ever been lucid before. Time is relative, so this "dream" could keep going on for decades in our "time".

Or what about the characters in our dreams? Could we be the "God" of our dreams?

Don't take me for some "looney" who lives by this theory, as I just thought of it last night, and its most likely been posted on the boards as its not that much of a stretch to think of. I just thought it was interesting, and my mind is definitely open to any theory. (My belief in something will never be absolute, so why not?)
