where should posts about dreams go?
« on: April 18, 2011, 10:03:56 AM »
Not too long ago i deleted the category dreaming and the unconscious mind as we were not getting enough activity in the category.

however we are still getting posts about dreams, dream content and dream interpretation.


currently dream topics are being posted in general psychology forum.
but i was considering moving any dream topics to the parapsychology forum.

do members think that parapsychology is an appropriate forum for dreams or is general psychology okay?
The so-called miraculous powers of a great master are a natural accompaniment to his exact understanding of subtle laws that operate in the inner cosmos of consciousness.

As you ask for what members think, I think dreams DO NOT belong is parapsychology.
This because dreams are a part of psychology.

Why would you think they are 'para'... they are very real, however if people interpret them as 'parapsycology' ie: dreaming the future, dreaming an angel visited them, this is not 'dreaming' but 'believing false images are real'... haha couldn't resist that one.

Dreams are real and psychology, if people interpret them to be psychic, a visit from a dead person etc.. that's subjective and only applies to the minority.. most people are rational and realise dreams are dreams - a reality, a fact. Parapsychology is not.
