Page 37 - Knowing The Truth

Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar) 35

Now try to remember the details of the dream. For example, Ahmed, can
you distinguish the sounds, colors, smells - and the emotions you felt as
you drove the boat – such as fear, hunger and joy from what you
experience in a waking state?

AHMED: Probably not.

IBRAHIM: I also had a dream the other day I confused with real life.
That evening I wanted to go to bed early because the next day we were
going to go to the Islands to have a meal with my family. My sister went
to sleep in her own room. Since I was tired, I immediately fell asleep. In
my dream, I asked my sister to wash and iron my new shirt. I stood there
myself and watched her ironing my shirt. When I got up in the morning,
Asra had placed the shirt in the place I wanted, and I wasn't quite sure if
it was real or I was dreaming. Had my sister really ironed my shirt or was
it a dream? I thought for a minute and decided that it was real, then I went
to thank my sister. When my sister acted surprised, I realized that all this
had happened in my dream.

MURAD: Yes, sometimes dreams can be so vivid they're confused
with real life. Besides, I want to remind you again, there's no difference
between what we see while dreaming and what we see while awake. In
both states, we have the same reaction to the same stimuli. For example,
we sense the full taste while eating, we feel fear and flee from dangerous
situations, and feel joy in a happy situation. Although from time to time
we experience unusual things, our reactions are the same.

AHMED: I totally agree. Even that time in the sea when I was
swimming and trying to save myself I remember how cold the water felt.

MURAD: But even more interesting is how it is that we see the things
we experience in dreams. Ibrahim, can you tell us where we see our
dreams?
