Deja Vu?

I had a deja vu incident happen earlier tonight actually at work. My manager came and asked me a question about something non-work related, as I was putting a new CD in the player... As soon as she asked me I got a wierd feeling of Deja Vu even about the CD that i was putting in at that exact moment. I kinda even knew what her response was gonna be to what I said as I was saying it. It's so wierd especially when the feeling lasts for a while or so rather than just a brief moment.

The dream theory seems very valid, as I once had an entire day that felt like Deja Vu, it was fucking trippy I knew how the day was going to progress, and it want a normal routine day either. I kept it to myself for a while making guesses on what was going to happen, and it kept going that way. After a while I mentioned it to my friends, I even made a few predictions of random run-ins we'd have with people we dont normally hang out with. Perhaps it was a day I'd spent in a dream previously?

i get dat shit all the time.
its sick when like when u try to guess whats gunna happen and u get it right for a long time. do u guys noe what i mean?

Maybe... who knows? In the few hours before my final M.Sc presentation, where i would have to give a small lecture about what has been my work to some professors, i slept and dreamed about my presentation... and dreamed that somewhat good, but rather unusual, had happened... when i awoke, i couldnt remember what it was, but was sure everything would be OK... then, during my real presentation, one of my answers to one professors question caused a general burst of laugh... i felt very elated, mainly cause i didnt meant to joke in such serious situation... and, like i had dreamed, everything ended OK.
There was several histories like this that happened with me... but this one was one of the most impressives for me.

One thing somewhat related to this is that whenever im high i can remember scenes, flashes of my dreams, which i usually cant when sober. Like... im there, stoned, and then suddenly i remember some scene from a dream i had... and the dream may be recent, or old... i can remember dreams that i had when was like 3 or 4... i can remember several places that i only remember to have been while dreaming... i can remember several dreams in which i dreamed the same dream... why does weed would make me remember better my dreams?
I think makes our mind to enter a state a bit dream-like... like somewhat between awake and dreaming... so, it would be easier to remember a dream when youre half dreaming than when youre awake, as the states of the mind (awake/dreaming) are more similar.
Or, in other words... maybe most my dreams are recollections of my consciousness when it is at the etheric body... and as i strongly suspect that weed can "shift" a bit our consciousness from the physical to the etheric, than i would simply be remembering caise i was in the same "level" of consciousness.
Ah... the deep thoughts that only the weed can give... :stoned::stoned::stoned::rastasmoke::jointsmile:

Once I was really blazed. It was like my fourth time smoking. I had deja vu for everything. My friend showed my artwork that he's done, and for every single one I was convinced I have seen it already like it was a famous painting.

Then we went to watch movies. I had never been to that movie theater, but I was convinced that I had been there before.



You'll know it when you have deja vu. It's just such a strong feeling. You are entirely convinced even when something seems impossible.

deja vu is the craziest stuff to ever happen, of the few dreams i can say i remember they are all deja vu, usually revolving around my workplaces, or the people i work with, but other than that i dont really have dreams that i can remember , which sucks, if i even have other dreams.

i think we should actually figure this out, because it seems like everyone experiences it. maybe if we can figure out how to control our dreams we could control the future! itd be like a stoner revolution!

I was at work a couple weeks ago and started playing a song in my head, mumbling out verses and such. I get into this work van and start it, while I'm mumbling the lyrics to this song. Radio turns on, the song that I was singing along in my head comes through the speakers, right in sync with the lyrics that I was mumbling. It was completely insane.

Man... it happened with me some times... or then like i would be listening to some station, than would get an "urge" to change the station, only to discover some of my favourite songs playing at the station i changed to... :eek:

Well... it is possible to control our dreams... its called "lucid dreaming"... i do it VERY frequently... (well i sleep TOO much... maybe thats why im so good at it :p)
But i still am not sure if we could use the dreams to control the waking life... i believe it would be possible, but still dont know how.
But it poses an interesting question... when we have a dream, and after it what weve dreamed becomes true, its because in the dream we did foresee the future OR because in the dream we choosed anyhow how the future would be, so when we were awake we just make what weve dreamed become true?

I agree completly! Our minds are FAR more complex that we even concieve... so our human possibilities are WAY greater than we imagine. :thumbsup:

I don't think that deja vu is deep and meaningful.

I believe that deja vu is just your brain playing a trick on you. The similarity between a déjÃ* vu-eliciting stimulus and an existing, but different, memory trace may lead to the sensation. Thus, encountering something which evokes the implicit associations of an experience or sensation that cannot be remembered may lead to déjÃ* vu.

or

In the late 20th and early 21st Centuries, it was widely believed that déjÃ* vu could be caused by the mis-timing of neuronal firing. This timing error was thought to lead the brain to believe that it was encountering a stimulus for the second time, when in fact, it was simply re-experiencing the same event from a slightly delayed source

I know all about this, I predict the future and it's always mundane.


I once had a dream, where I was in a house I was comfortable in but didn't really recognize. Sitting on a roll of carpet eating spaghettios, watching some show on TV.


I remembered the dream because it'd just felt so real, then a few years later THAT EXACT SCENARIO HAPPENED. I was in the same house, same room, same carpet, same tv show, same spaghettios. My family had just moved.


This further explains why I believe that the brain is a quantum device, which can help our conciousness fold, and travel through space and time instantly. It lets our conciousness travel at the speed of thought as pure perceptual energy.
