- Dreaming is to dream, which are successions of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. Marvin White and Wendy Harris were baffled when Minimus Mole told them there wasn't a tree or boulder in the clearing in front of her home, because they had seen it earlier, and Marvin said that they couldn't have dreamed it.
- A dream is something that you wish that will never happen no matter how much you want it to happen, and you can hug your teddy bear all you want but it will never come true and your dream will never be real. Didn't your parents ever tell you that?
- The Dreaming was an ancient Minbari ritual. Before entering the Dreaming the subject would drink a mysterious and extremely cold liquid from a chalice and share it with the one who will go with them. From there, they would enter the dreaming; a small enclosed room, filled with cold mist. As the liquid takes effect they meditate and begin to share their memories with the guide.

- Like a picture postcard of a vacation, when humanity began to put more faith in cold hard facts (and cold hard iron) over whim and fancy, the mythic parts of the world branched off to an overlapping level of reality called The Dreaming. Not quite Arcadia, it fit more with what both Fae and non-Fae felt that fairy-land should be. The Dreaming might better called "The Dreamings" (plural) since it is divided into three layers: The Near Dreaming, the Far Dreaming, and the Deep Dreaming.
- This moving picture is only partly shaped by what our senses perceive. The extremely small amount of data it chooses to "view" (see, hear, feel) and to consider "real", as well as the overwhelming majority of the incoming data it chooses to ignore, is literally determined by our cerebral response to central-nervous system stimuli filtered through our personal reactions, habits, and expectations shaped by prior experiences, decision patterns, and existing belief systems (B.S.). The brain thus portrays the world as a rapidly changing "scene" which exist as a series of multi-sensory four-dimensional images which -- totally although unique and individualized to each person -- we almost always experience as "outside of ourselves" or "out there".

The brain thus portrays the world as a rapidly changing "scene" which exist as a series of multi-sensory four-dimensional images which -- totally although unique and individualized to each person -- we almost always experience as "outside of ourselves" or "out there". In fact, everything and everyone we see, hear, communicate with, touch or grope, even what we consider to be our body, is a holographic image playing inside our head. This image takes just under half-a-second to form (a good example of this I read somewhere: When we perceive someone hitting a tennis ball, it has, in reality, already crossed the net!). When asleep, the brain continues to form patterns and storylines from the same elements which create our waking illusion, and we dream. At times the ego becomes aware that it is dreaming, and can learn to 'wake up' within the dream and direct it into any direction desired. To do this our, ah, rapid eye movement vibrates at, ummm, damnit, what was that number again? I don't know, I wrote it down somewhere. No, not on that pad. Goddamnit, did I really leave it all the way out in the fucking car? Well, the hell with it, this is getting really boring anyway. I can hardly keep my eyes open. You know what, I can finish this article later. After that big meal, a glass of wine, and some high grade pot (not to mention that dab of peyote), I'm getting really tired. Should never mix wine, pot, and peyote, what was I thinking? Really have to, to, sleep this one off, and, and,,. . . and getting very slee-py sle. . . zzzzzzzz. . . A loud noise over my middle shoulder Image:Eating poop.gif Then more people come down from the upper slopes of the ships seventeen decks, some limping, some walking on stilts, a ripping sound, room expanding, many bouncing balls with the face and voice of Terence McKenna show me machines made from sound, tell me not to be astounded, say "Now you do it" I find Lynn again, hidden in the dust. There, ducks flock above a jade sunlit river, little pillow clouds, NFL linebacker runs through field of crickets, trips on sunshine, dies in ecstasy, decomposes to Bach, french toast vendor listens. Lynn and I are suddenly in New York, but invisible. I approach Lynn and notice my right hand, stare at my hand, and. . . (Holy fuck I'm lucid!, fully awake and still dreaming. OK, work it, bring Mars, alright, climb into its craters and speed along the landscape, make it redder--Mars at full sunlight. Now bring all Earth's lakes here. There, put in boats the size of cities. Fly over the scene. Now math, see all geometry at once, unite it into a moving symbol containing all angles, shapes, and dimensions. Now intersect that with the fractal construction of the mind, ha! From here easily move into becoming the consciousness of all beings, one-at-a-time, real fast, thousands a second, become one then another then another moving to the next quickly--then, yes, very important, finish up by being myself looking at them. Alright, time to make love to 'Lyn over and over and timeless, all texture and nerve feedback amplified a hundred-fold, more ways, more texture, feel the love of this moment as all moments. Now go, now, go, over. . .fading, losin g, wa it, l uc idi ty) Get away from me, orphan! This house has many more rooms than last time, yes, I know this place, have been here before. More occupants now, and the dogs are funnier. Lynn and I hurry down the stairs and out the door. Hey, you there, on the road, do I know you? I think I'll just grab hold of you and. . . run! Image:Monkey annoying.gif Lynn and I live on the island, the big Island, sand on our feet, tickles. Birds dive at our heads makes us laugh, crabs with names introduce themselves make us cry. Where are the Indians? When do the bands come on stage? Blue streak meteors a dozen. . . now five dozen. . . a second, I catch one in my hand, Lynn catches hers in a box of overpriced cereal. Debutantes waltz with Lynn but trip her on purpose, crabs eat her!! "'Lynn!!" I shout. Nobody safe here, oh god, nowhere to go, nobody safe here, petrified, pieces of Lynn carried into the bushes, can't run, muscles frozen. Hey, isn't that a cow! Riding cow, over a mountain range, mooooooo we both sing.
