A study published in Current Biology titled “Real-time dialogue between experimenters and dreamers during REM sleep” has discovered that individuals who are asleep and experiencing a lucid dream, which is a dream where the individual knows that they are in the midst of a dream, can “perceive questions from an experimenter and provide answers using electrophysiological signals.” These answers are provided while they are dreaming. The fact that lucid dreamers were able to communicate with the researchers, who weren’t dreaming, is quite mind altering. Researchers used spoken words, beeping tones, flashing lights and other tactical stimuli like touching the dreamer’s hand and “tapping” to communicate with the dreamers. The “messages” and questions that the dreamers were “receiving” were answered and acknowledged by the dreamers in the form of eye movements, facial contractions etc. The dreamers used in the study provided some descriptions after they woke up of what they experienced in real time when the researchers began the stimuli process I was at a party with friends. Your voice was coming from the outside, just like a narrator of a movie…I decided to answer ‘no’ (with facial muscle contractions). When the lights started flickering. I recognized this as a (Morse-coded) signal from the outside and counted **** *** ***** and reported the answer ‘4’ with eye signals. During the finger tapping, I was fighting against goblins. I remember being surprised that I was able to do many things at the same time as the task. Lucid dreamers operate with gamma brainwaves, which are of the highest frequency. They range from 40 to 100 Hz, the fastest documented brainwave frequencies known to man, and suggest that some lucid dreamers are using more of their brain, and that the brain is functioning at a higher level as compared to when in the normal “waking” state. When it comes to brain waves, lucid dreamers’ brain waves can be compared to the brain waves of meditating monks. Repost @collective_evolution
