Famous Dream-Related Quote...

In that case I'd simply keep it as a memento.

How I'd feel, how my reality would change? I know I sure as hell wouldn't understand it. I'd be startled and confused, but highly interested. I'd look for any explanation possible to what caused it. Scientific presumably, though I might become a more spiritual person. If no explanation could be found, I'd probably live in blissful ignorance. Always wondering how or why, but being content with the fact that it just is.

I can gaurantee it would change my world view. How I cannot say.

I'd ask myself why I believed I was in "heaven". What is heaven to you may not be heaven to me. Sure, heaven has a literal interpretation in theology, but heaven might not even be a place to some, but a state of being. Like a dream.

Very interesting

Because I believe heaven is an invisible spiritual realm where no flowers literally grow, I would first assume I had been sleep walking. Then, if my kids were home, I would wonder if they were playing a practical joke on me. If none of those things were the answer, I would think even more deeply on dreams being doorways to parallel (sp) universes

I would say damn... Now I snore AND sleepwalk ?!

**Descensus** · 03-26-2009 10:05 PM

I would say I had been sleepwalking and picked a flower somewhere...Heh.

**Xox** · 03-26-2009 10:09 PM

Yeah honestly, I sleepwalk so I really would've assumed I picked it up somewhere.

If I didn't however, in that situation, well there's not much to do. I'd probably do something like, bury the flower. Or throw it off a mountain.

Now that is one of the smartest things I've ever heard on R/S.

a friend of mine who was agnostic as far as I can tell, dreamt of an anime character once. she said it was life like! like a real person sat on her bed. the anime character has black angel wings

when she woke up she swears she found a black feather

that thoroughly freaked her out!

but if something from a dream came out, then the first thing that comes to my mind is tulpa!

and why is this question just for atheists? it would be shocking for anyone

**Mes Tarrant** · 04-05-2009 05:20 AM

^^ Did she show you the black feather? Of course she didn't. Hence, she imagined it.

It's more for the atheists just because I'm an atheist myself and really skeptical about everything... and it's just really interesting for me to think about what would happen if the world kind of suddenly got turned upside down.

Imagine being fully conscious on a shroom trip and having the death of a friend unfold before your minds eye to have it happen two days later.
