The robbers seemed to have been coming at an angle from the left. When asked if they came in front of him, he said no they were behind him.

Analyses We analyzed the data from the literature and the data from our own SEEG database separately, as we have the full verbatim report and interview, the technique used, the different EBS parameters and the electrode location in our patients. Results We collected 7 experiential phenomena related to dreams out of 45 different types of reminiscences for details about these other types see [ 4 ] in 6 patients Table 1 from our database.

Andrea Lopez. I've had these types of dreams for years. Sometimes they happen in real life within days sometimes even months. Today I had one happen jn real life while I was at work. I work at hospital and we have those mobile computer stations that you can wheel around and up and down. In my dream I was standing next to a patient's room on one of those computers, i was standing and looking at the screen.

On the screen there's a map with a black background and a lot of red. That map that I dreamt about happened to be I wish I would have paid attention to it more and that i'd written it down. It kinda freaked me out, all the other ones have been meaningless. Really freaky. Read more Dan James. I find a problem in "scientific" explanations, and popular science articles about deja-vu, is that they often describe it as an experience that you have lived an experience before. I always encounter deja-vu as the realization that I have seen this moment in a dream.

This is because I am in touch with my dreams. Deja-vu is a very real experience, that happens when you realize you have seen the experience before in a dream.

It happens because dreams are often precognitive and link to the future of the dreamer's life. Robert Briggs. Think about it deja vue,dreams of the future. Its called eternal return get informed. Gordo Acevedo. Benelux Prussia. I often get this phenomenon. I am aware of it but I can't trust what I was thinking if it is gonna happen or not. Then after some time it happens. Though my memory of it was very vague.

For example. Reading something that I did not read then having a Dumb struck memory of knowing already the contents of it. I was actually scared when those moments happen. It feels like something weird is going on. And what about now what is now. We are the children of the seven who existed in spirit form before flesh and spirit became as one We lived in this world once.

Now we exist in there dreams. While it's certainly unsettling to experience things that you've previously dreamt, the concept isn't entirely new. It's essentially good old-fashioned prophesying — a gift for which people people were once esteemed See: Moses or condemned See: Witch trials.

But science doesn't have time for the supernatural. In other words, a new experience may remind you of a past experience, but your brain can't quite recall it specifically. Those kinds of gaps leave the door wide open for us to indulge in supernatural explanations: I've been here before Did you dream the dream or experience the experience first?

Or did you live it first? It's the old chicken-or-the-egg routine, only our nebulous, often imperfect, memories muddied the picture even further. The scientists established three broad types of the phenomenon.

Things get murkier with the next category. Subjects may have remembered a dream, but not which dream or even when. That's when participants had trouble differentiating reality from dream. Am I still dreaming? Or did I really experience that? And, perhaps, along the way, they might be able to keep our brains a little more honest.
