TIME DILATION IS FULLY EXPLAINED, AS THE ULTIMATE MATHEMATICAL UNIFICATION OF PHYSICS/PHYSICAL EXPERIENCE IS CLEARLY PROVEN: A PHOTON may be placed at the center of what is THE SUN (as A POINT, of course), AS the reduction of SPACE is offset by (or BALANCED with) the speed of light; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY; AS E=MC2 IS F=MA. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. (The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky.) Time DILATION ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that electromagnetism/ENERGY IS GRAVITY, as C4 is a POINT that is ELECTROMAGNETIC/GRAVITATIONAL (ON BALANCE) as SPACE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Time DILATION proves that electromagnetism/ENERGY IS GRAVITY, AS E=mc2 is DIRECTLY and fundamentally derived from F=ma. E=mc2 IS F=ma. A planet AND a star thus constitute what is A POINT in the night sky. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY. ACCORDINGLY, I have ALSO fully explained the MATHEMATICAL UNIFICATION of Einstein's equations and Maxwell's equations (GIVEN THE ADDITION OF A FOURTH SPATIAL DIMENSION); AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. The Sun AND the Earth are F=ma AND E=mc2. Great. SO, ultimately and truly, TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE; AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. AGAIN, time DILATION ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that E=MC2 is F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Great. Indeed, this NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. (E=mc2 IS F=ma.) Therefore, INSTANTANEITY is thus FUNDAMENTAL to what is the FULL and proper UNDERSTANDING of physics/physical experience; AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. SO, GRAVITATIONAL force/ENERGY IS proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Accordingly, the rotation of WHAT IS THE MOON matches it's revolution. MOREOVER, a given PLANET (including WHAT IS THE EARTH) sweeps out equal areas in equal times consistent WITH/AS E=MC2, F=MA, AND what is perpetual motion; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites, AS E=MC2 IS F=MA; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. GREAT !!! It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. BALANCE and completeness go hand in hand. Very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black. E=mc2 IS F=ma. "Mass"/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent with/as what is BALANCED ELECTROMAGNETIC/gravitational force/ENERGY, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. (Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE.) E=MC2 IS F=ma. Objects fall at the SAME RATE (neglecting air resistance, of course), AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. E=MC2 IS F=ma. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense.

I think what causes dreams is actually not hard at all to figure out. While awake we mentally process everything in real time to be able to execute tasks throughout the day. When driving, you stop by the stop sign and wait for your turn to go. Your brain no longer needs to process anything having to do with that stop sign you passed because the task is done. Your brain dumps everything having to do with that stop sign. What causes people to have dreams? Computer processors process data in real time. Any data the processor cannot process in real time, because the load is too much to handle in real time, it goes to the memory module and stays in the memory module until the processor is ready to process that information. After the stored data gets processed, the data in the memory is no longer needed so the memory dumps that data to clear up space to store the next overload task. Our brain works exactly the same way. After you execute a task, you no longer need to think about it because the task is done. Let's say your brain can only store 10 unanswered questions. You got a missed call on your cellphone from a private number. You can't call back to find out who called because it's a private number. The "Who called?" question is now stuck in your memory because you can't "Process" who called. Now you got space in your brain for 9 unanswered questions. You gas up your car at a gas station and you noticed some weird person you don't recognize looking at you from a distance. Now you are asking yourself "Who was that? Why was that person looking at me?". That's two questions. Now you have room for 7 more unanswered questions. "Is it a bird? Is it a plane?" 5 more questions. "What's the name of that song?" 4 more questions. "When will I get my tax check?" 3 more. "Why is my stomach feeling funny?" 2 more. "Will it rain tomorrow?" 1 more and "Who ate the last cookie?" and done! Your memory is full. You have 10 unanswered questions not getting solved. You go to sleep. Your brain says "Ok. Can't answer any of these questions! I'm going to dump all these questions because I need space!" so your memory dumps all 10 unanswered questions at random order. So that weird dream. "I was at a gas station when Superman came from out of nowhere and handed me my tax return check and then he flew away. I looked to my right and noticed a weird guy just standing looking at me while he ate a cookie. It began to rain. I got in my car. I got a call from my bank. The bank put me on hold with that one song I don't know the name of playing in the background. I hung up the phone because I needed to find a bathroom." That's what dreams are. It's just your brain purging out useless information that's occupying space in your memory. The more random the order of the purge, the weirder the dreams are because nothing makes any sense or any connection.
I'm fascinated by how much of a knowledge theoretical physicist has, about psychology, phisiology, biology, anatomy, anthropology and all other sorts of science. Michio kaku is just genius, he can talk about anything
the field you are writing about is called cognitive studies and as i've observerd Mr. Kaku either doesn't know what consciousness is or is not aware of the fact that scientist all over the globe are trying to find a real source and location of consciousness. he is just using his reputation as an appreciated physicist to talk about the stuff that he has no expertise in, which brings me to my point: no he shouldnt be talking about anything (at least in a sense of popularizing science before actually understanding the field)
I find that sometimes when I'm having a good dream, I can feel myself waking up and I can resist it. I can even resume a dream sometimes after waking up for a short period of time.
I have lucid dreams very, very often. It's an amazing experience because it feels so real. Like a commenter below me said, its almost like virtual reality. I can tell myself id like to go to my childhood home or see certain family members.
I have been remembering my dreams every day since I was a child (I am in my late 40s) and I have been writing them down since childhood. I wake up tired every day because I am in amazing adventures in my dreams. They are often imbued with the classics (being late, being chased, being confused on what to do albeit feeling great pressure to complete a goal), but also filled with creative endeavor and solutions to my artistic hobbies or work. I did a sleep study but they only checked for sleep apnea, which resulted negative. I also dream of dead people giving me messages to their loved ones, and I dreamt of the future in a few occasions. And I talk and sleepwalk. Just to complete the picture. I have never met anyone like me.
ive been using lucid dreaming as an escape to my horrid life, everyday i just try my best to survive the day then go back dreaming during my night. most of the time I consider that real life is the dream and dreaming is the real life, my biggest hopes are one day we can connect all lucid dreams online.
Haha, it really is true. Well, I love it when people like Fry, Tyson, Dawkins etc are on here but for some reason it seems Kaku is addicted to making these videos.
Dr. Kaku, I've been watching and listening to you for years. At first just as a scientist, but I've learned that you are fascinating and a great teacher in many things. Thank you for continuing to share and teach and give through the years.
+The All - Nighter unt Lucid dreaming is one of the most interesting and fantastic things in existence, in my opinion. It is not an exaggeration to say that the experience can be like a holodeck, and a lot of people have even used lucid dreams as a training ground for things that they want to improve in waking life. One woman even tried boarding airplanes in her dreams to get rid of her fear of flying.
+tmstani23 I tried getting lucid dreams for two years before I had any real results, and after that point I could become lucid about 5-6 times a month for some time all of a sudden. =P (I have had a temporary break lately) You will simply have to keep trying until you get them - it will happen when you least expect it, just like it did to me. I was wondering, what have you done in order to become lucid? I have found that one of the best ways to develop lucidity is by becoming genuinely suspicious about waking life itself - in other words, you should regularly double-check whether you are awake or asleep by trying to do impossible things (harmless, of course), like for example looking at an analogue clock twice and try changing the time with your mind or something like that. This is a reasonable type of skepticism, because dreams can in fact sometimes feel exactly as if you are awake. I have had several dreams where I have been like "yeah, I am obviously awake right now" and then I wake up! So it is a good habit to perform "tests" in waking life and see if you can do something impossible. If you remain in this kind of conscious and skeptical state for a few weeks or so then you will start acting that way in dreams as well, which can lead to lucidity. I recommend that you check a few videos by Stephen LaBerge - he is a psychophysiologist and an expert dream researcher with a lot of personal experience with lucid dreaming, and he knows what he is talking about.
+tmstani23 I can also strongly recommend Stephen LaBerge's book "Exploring The World Of Lucid Dreaming". That book is great, it's a very comprehensive guide for becoming lucid, and it gives a lot of interesting advice. Some other great knowledgeable lucid dreaming experts are Robert Waggoner and Tim Post - those guys have a bunch of videos here on TH-cam.
Cool, thanks for all the advice and encouragement. I will check out the book. So far I've tried reality checks, wake induced with multiple techniques, dream planning, alarms, tried most of the techniques. Probably not for long enough the the longest I tried was probably a couple months straight.
Now that was one of the more truly fun videos I have watched. I would like to see Michio take deeper steps in this realm and discuss the primary driver of the dream state, the release of DMT during this process. There are also chemical states which enhance dreaming and ones which suppress dreaming. I think science is at the very early stages of understanding much of what goes on. I hope they continue their work.
Finally scientific confirmation . I Have been a lucid dreamer since I was very young (It doesn't happen all the time but when it does it is amazing) . whenever I would ask someone if they have experienced such a thing they would say no.so I learned to stop asking lol. the potential of harnessing this is huge :)
Yesss. When the dreams is so fantastical, I can tell it’s a dream. And if I try hard enough, I can actually replay the dream from the very beginning like I’m living inside of a movie.
@@munkeybutt It's a strange thing. I found that it's even possible to remember lucid dreams you've had months ago. Like they get hard wired in your brain differently.
This is amazing, I've been practicing lucid dreaming for about 3 years now and I know it's real, it's amazing to see the scientific explanation from my greatest hero in science, thank you Michio!
as a kid I could lucid dream regularly..i couldnt start the dream how i wanted..but once i was able to realize I was dreaming then I could take control and do whatever I wanted in the world i started in
Dr. Kaku is a huge legend. I do a lot of videos like the ones he does. I try to educate as many people as I can on all sorts of different topics. I love science
I really like to listen how a theoretical physicist, a legend, gives an explanation of something with contradictions. That makes you even more conscious, thanks Michio. [time] - [captions] 2:25 - Your orbital frontal cortex that is your conscience is also shut off. 3:58 - In other words, he was conscious while he was dreaming.
For me it’s almost anything that has to do with the world. My mind never stops questioning... Now I know what Elon was talking about on Joe Rogan when he said “ You don’t necessarily want to be me “ or some to those lines.
I dream every night remember all of them. I can fall asleep for 20 min nap and have a full dream. I def can lucid dream. After watching this realize I don’t smell things in dream but can taste ( which is related to smell haha) touch speak and feel. So trying to make myself smell In my dreams . Last night I had a dream walking through a path with tons of flowers. Still couldn’t smell them! Going keep trying at least got it in my head !
I'm in awe of this man... So brilliant. It's so heartwarming to know the science is behind such an important tool. Lucid dreaming to me can become a fool-proof therapeutic activity.
I didn't know there was even a debate as to whether lucid dreaming was real! I've gotten really good at it the last few years and I thought everyone experiences at least a few times. It's really easy when you know how to slip straight into one, it's kind of my hobby now (aka the reason not to get up).
Well there's a reason scientists call the human brain one of the most powerful, complex computers to ever exist. It's big, complex information processor.
I love it how Michio Kaku is ever so often venturing into the misteries of neuroscience, we in the field of medicine/human health science need more people applying different types of knowledge such as physics in order to achieve complete theorems on the functions of our body.
Dreams are our mainline into pure imagination which might be the foundation of all reality. If it exist in our mind it may very well exist somewhere out there.
I love how people still blindly assume that unless you have a piece of paper that "signifies" your knowledge of a subject: you cannot possibly know or understand anything about that subject. We all know that piece of paper represents the extent to which a person has gone to acquire knowledge in a certain area, but that in no way discredits or invalidates the words and ideas of people whom have acquired knowledge through other means. In fact, in certain cases there are intelligent people whom do not have the proper documentation to back up their intelligence but nonetheless know more about a subject then some people who merely memorized the work of others. Initiative is so incredibly important especially when it comes to acquiring knowledge: we must be able to *understand* and not just be able to *know* why others have made certain conclusions. Even with little knowledge of the subject area we can fact-check and understand that Kaku also understands what he is talking about. Lastly, I talk about things related to the individual's experience of the human condition and the perceptions and problems that emanate from it. Give me a shot if you're interested as I am always learning:) Good day to everyone
ofSix what an incredibly refreshing and enlightened perspective. It was a pleasure reading such an intelligent viewpoint. Thank you. I couldn't agree more.
Just a class in physics will get you through. You do not need a doctorate in physics. People with negative comments here simply lack the grey matter to understand what he is talking about.
my dreams are so vivid its like I'm in another dimension. I've been lucid dreaming for 14 years now and have gained unlimited control and power within my dreams yet there are times where its like I'm living a separate life in another time. I can't quiet explain it but I always give myself time to wake and evaluate the events of my dream to dissect and decipher its contents. I do believe though that we have full control of the penial gland during sleep though its only speculation
***** Be confident and stay calm. That may be hard when you're dreaming, but intense emotions tend to wake you up just like they do in regular dreams. To induce them, what works best for me is to wake up during REM sleep (using an app on your phone, or by calculating and setting an alarm at a multiple of 90 minutes) and go back to bed. Go to the bathroom, go back to bed and sleep for an hour or something like that. Chances are you'll have a very vivid dream. Try to remember it, write it down. That is the most important step. Becoming lucid is useless when you forget. Once you have vivid dreams you gotta do reality checks. Make them a habit. Try holding your nose with your mouth closed. When you're dreaming you'll be able to breathe. Another one is to try pushing your thumb through the palm of your hand. You can also check the time twice and see if it stays the same or if you can even remember it. There are plenty of habits you can make yourself do in the hopes of doing the same in a dream. I personally don't use reality checks any more, I seem to be able to just figure it out without them. That will take practice though. Since this is your unconsciousness, being excited about it is also important. If you really want a lucid dream, it will really help. Think about it before you go to bed, make sure it is in your brain somewhere ;) These are just some quick tips. Google is your best friend. Good luck!
Niosus Just to expand, my reality checks are pain (can't feel it in a dream) and I can't read in a dream. If I can't do one of these things, I recognize I'm in a dream and I can alter stuff. On occasion I can force myself awake.
Niosus Sounds like it came out of Inception! (But I assume Inception is based on lucid dreaming, so it's the other way around). I wish I could lucid dream, but it's just too much work to practice while I'm enjoying my time in wonderland.
I've lucid dreamed many times when I was younger, I could actually change it's course and teleport myself to different parts of the landscape. So, I've experienced almost everything that's been shown in Inception.
Since our thinking processes are resting while we sleep, I can only think that it is our spirit that travels in the spirit world that we call dreaming. So, it is not scientific or psychological. It is spirit world. I'm still trying to figure out who is directing the kinds of dreams I get.
Dreams are a big mystery, but the moment of waking up is a mind-blower. I once had a nightmare that I was standing in a field, and I turned around to see a large male African lion staring at me a few meters away. It frightened me so much that I just stood there paralyzed as the lion lunged toward me, scaring me awake in a cold sweat. After several seconds, I realized I was awake and still paralyzed! Maybe awakening is a more gradual process than it seems afterward. Sir Arthur Eddington once said "Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we *can* imagine."... the same could be argued for that 'inner space' between our ears!
+SIMKINETICS Generally if I experience a death in my dream I wake up at that point, and my body definitely has flooded itself with flight or fight response chemicals.
I been lucid dreaming since I was 13. It is amazing! 34 now. Started so I could get rid of my nightmares, and it worked. Have not had a bad dream since and even if I do I can change it or have fun with it, even being able to watch if I don't feel like editing it. Sometimes random can come out with very interesting results.
I often experience that i fall asleep and dreams begin, images and events but I am still awake.... I am watching, i am there, and the clarity of my perception is perfect. It feels more real than wakeful state of everyday life. It's a very pleasant experience. Eventually I lose that awareness. And it's spontaneous, i only have to be interested in the pictures and it happens
Dreaming is your subconscious mind playing in 4D world through your memories while half of your conscious mind is shut down. This is why faling asleep is similar to death! We are being prepeared each night for death! Dreaming could be explained when half of your conscious mind connects with half of your subconscious mind by sharing the information and its memories and this is how every night our soal collects or downloads information and knowledge so that it could save it forever! After this step subconscious mind transforms memories and expiriences to more psycadelic like things more wierder, because it all happens in 4D world. Dreams are working only in 4D world, becuse like thoughts every memory you think of appears instantly in the dream. Our soal can also give us clues in dreams. Subconscious mind is active while we are dreaming or when we are at deep rest state or deep meditative state in lower brain frequency state. Our brain vibrates! So we are like half way into 4D world while dreaming which can be achieved also on psycadelics. It is like we are touching the 4D reality! So dreaming is a connection from conscious mind to subconscious mind. Smal amounts of DMT chemicals might be released while dreaming to create more profound visuals or to help connect with our subconscious mind. When we wake up and remember our dream, we actualy remember the downloaded information from subconscious mind to conscious mind. Since most of the dreams happens in our subconscious mind, moast of the dreams we can't remember.
Oh yeah I can definitely relate to this. When ever I had a nightmare where I cannot win, I always think that’s unfair and tell my brain to give me some superpowers to override the nightmare scenario that I was in. So basically I can activate my control how the nightmare plays out. This didn’t once or twice, but virtually every single time I’m dreaming a nightmare..
I have had two dreams where I realized I was dreaming. However, I'm not sure if I was really consciously aware I was dreaming or if I was dreaming that I was consciously aware that I was dreaming........ The first time when I realized I was dreaming I started "spinning" because everything was turning white and I felt like I was waking up. Which I did wake up, into another dream which I didn't realize was a dream until I really woke up (or have I woke up yet?) The second time I realized I was dreaming, I made an apple appear in my hand and started eating it and then I either woke up or slipped into another dream or something. But I don't even like apples that much. So dreaming of me eating one wouldn't be my first choice in things to do while lucid dreaming........More like eating a hot clown girls "apples"......
I've managed to lucid dream a couple of times by accident but have never been able to recreate it consciously as I lay in bed and relax and clear my mind etc etc - I've read a lot about it but, unfortunately, to no effect. I know its possible to go "Hey wait a minute.." in a dream but wish I could control it better and achieve it by my own doing.
ive been having a lot of nightmares in recent years and in my dream i have to realize its a dream its not real it doesnt connect with the reality i knew when i went to sleep and i can just chill
ThaSickLife505 Are you that fucking stupid? You can do what ever the fuck you want while lucid dreaming. But it is still dreaming, in other words it's only real as imagination is. So yes you can spy or even fuck your ex while in lucid dreaming, but is't just the same as if you were to dream it in a regular dream (but you can control it).
ThaSickLife505 yes you control everything, unless you get a bad trip - some people get unexpected darkness or sth while lucid dreaming, which can freak you out
I remember I had a dream and I was in a barren place inside an advanced facility. After talking to a couple of people I started feeling tired and decided to sit outside where I can see an awesome view... after closing my eyes I woke up and the position I was sitting in my dream is the exact same position I was on my sofa. I wanted to go back in there because the air felt nice and wanted to see what that world is about.
In my dreams, whenever I am running from something, I find it hard to run, I have to constantly be looking back and something stops me from running. Does anyone know why this is?
It's because what he said at the end. You are actually paralyzed. Some people have a deficiency and can move while dreaming (sleep walking), But the rest of us, are entirely paralyzed and unable to enact any of those movements, that's what you are feeling; your limbs not responding. I have dreams in which I want to scream, and I get the same horrific feeling that I get when I can't run or punch.
Lucid dreamer here, I do not know in your case, but in me I think its because we are afraid of that something that is chasing us to catch us. you know in your dream that anything you think can happen. try to think it can’t touch you, there it would get close no matter what. and also you can flying instead, running can give you cramps or muscle pain when you wake up.
Because it activates the sympathetic response within the body if you truly put your emotions into the dream. The sympathetic response is only there for wakefulness. You can do everything you do in real life but in your head ( until the sympathetic nerves are heightened then you wake up ). I know this because if I didn’t move a muscle laying down on my bed and do breathing exercises to relax every muscle I then direct the emotions to my mind and imagine I’m using those muscles even if they didn’t move and it will seem as real as it would if I was actually using those muscles... fascinating huh?
I've been able to control my dreams since I was a little kid, like 4 or 5. I still can. I can wake myself up almost anytime I want, rarely do I try to wake myself and fail. Lucid dreams are every night for me.
Actually, I have lucid dreams for a few times. I remember vividly that I was running in a alley, then I stop and suddenly remembered "Wait! This happens in my other dream sometime ago, but there is no staircase to a rooftop in this dream". Then I turned my head back again, there was immediately a staircase in exactly where I was thinking. And I thought "Holy shit lucid dreaming".
From what I can remember, my first lucid dream was around age 11. I can remember this particular dream because it was one of the most terrifying experiences of my childhood. I was in my room sleeping and all of a sudden for whatever reason, I had woken up but i was paralyze at the same time, I was so terrified about not being able to open my eyes or arms that I had no idea what was going on, all i could think of was "I need some help but i can't scream or move, so maybe if I breathe harder my mom would somehow notice". She didn't. While in that state, my hearing had become super sensitive, I was able to listen to things that would normally go unnoticed, like the static white noise my stereo would emit. But because of my heighten sensitivity of hearing and not knowing what the hell I was experiencing, it had induced one the most vivid nightmares I've ever had. A couple of years ago I found out that what I had experience was a thing, that there is an actual term for it"lucid dreaming", and that it's not only possible to have a lucid dream but to control it. The last one I had was almost a year ago, but unlike my first, I was ready and in control.
That basically describes the experience I first had when i was about 12, it was absolutely terrifying and will never forget that heightened sense of pure fear. iv probably had about 100 over the past 20 years but nothing compares to that first time.
Dr Michio Kaku is a great scientist but I don't understand why they ask him questions that is not in his filed of expertise? I prefer to see Dr Michio Kaku talks about Physics rather than dream, evolution, how brain works or biology.
Seeing as how his point was that scans (nuclear magnetic resonance imaging) have revealed that psychology-babel isn't "hogwash", as he put it, it does revolve around physics. Electromagnetic waves to detect neural signals and paths and map out the brain activity with psychological boundary conditions. Sounds like physics to me. Sounds like you have no idea of how the scientific field evolves.. maybe you should read up on it? You know that if you become a chemist, you also learn about physics and biology? And the fields in which these chemists work can be anything from food processing to materials to medicin, etc etc. Thus a chemist may know a thing or two about things other than chemistry. As goes for physicists..
This is because he is largely a science popularizer, just like Neil DeGrasse Tyson, and Bill Nye. He probably would not do a lecture to other top scientists in this field, but explaining a simplified version of the ideas to the general public is not a problem at all.
I think the amygdala being active is just a product of your spirit (linked to your physical body, still) experiencing a spiritual development elsewhere, materialistically, rather than dreams being just a Picasso-esque visualization of stored-away emotions and feelings. The other parts of the brain being in hibernation while we still have a sense of experiencing our surroundings via awareness is similar to a driver still being mobile, even after stepping outside of the vehicle...
Ive been lucid dreaming since a kid, I always remember my dreams, know when im in dreams. I can Establishing the difference while in dreams from dream state and real reality, even can change my dreams to whatever I want or feel at the time, and even have continued dreams back to back from separate nights. Is that the definition of lucid dreaming or something else, just curious, if anyone has information it would be greatly appreciated. thanks
Holy shit, it makes sense now! I had a lucid dream once and didn't feel lucid at all (didn't realize the full implications and meaning of me being in a dream). So, while I was looking at the dream kitchen in front of me, I opened my dream eyes, which never made sense to me until now. What I truly opened was my conscience
***** So your space research tells you that dreams is only a theory? I just had a lucid one last night i was exploring another world until i woke up. I experienced it. So, was it a theory that i experienced? That's what you are saying?
I consider dreams to be a part of reality because they are unfiltered visions of who you are, what you desire, what you need in life. When you start listening to your (day)dreams and act upon them your life becomes a lot easier.
Google made me do it no not in that sense. I completly agree dreams are a part of reality. Reality the bes i can define it is the culmination of sensor ry perception in a dream your brain mocks these sensory inputs exceptionally but a mock input is still input
The Id, Ego and Superconcious co-relate to the Higher Self, Lower self and True Self of the eastern religions. This walks in line with physics, if you consider the body an individual atomic structure (an atom or "Adam"), we have the more positive aspect, a more negative aspect and a true aspect, which is generally clouded by the more negative aspects (fear, hatred, jealousy). A life which reflects a more positive environment will improve the overall structure of the "atom" (Adam) and at a certain point of development (free from "Sin" or negativity) can evolve, solidifying the higher aspect into a solid form. This is known as alchemy, the science of turning the negative aspects of lead into the more positive aspects of gold. Once free of this negativity, this atom becomes a free radical (see "Free radical theory of aging" -Denham Harman) and will no longer be bound to it's primary source (aka the Earth) and you will be a free to roam the entire Universe as an individual, retaining full consciousness. Metaphysics is simply a simile for Quantum mechanics.
Enough of this, it's the comment section of a *science* video, not a crackheads' meeting. Your attempt to connect that superstitious bullshit with science is ridiculous at best.
Artem Borisovskiy Sadly illogical nut jobs make up the majority of the modern world, and this new age hippie bull shit has taken deep roots in the up coming generation. Also if you notice this new age generation is very illogical and paranoid and think all kinds of crazy shit about governments and NWO. These people are a disease to progress.
Artem Borisovskiy It's actually relevant. When you sleep at night, you basically suffer a physical death. Your heart rate drops and your mind slips into it's Beta state, at which point, the electric spark, known as YOU, frees itself from the physical shell. This is the Atom/Adam I speak of, it is YOUR consciousness (or Soul) in an ethereal form which is produced by the electric currents in your body. You could even change the term "electric" over to digital and say a digital form of yourSELF has freed itself from the physical body (aka The Matrix). When Neo took the pill ,he basically killed himself in OUR dimension and had a digital self built and waiting for him, where they simply transferred his consciousness to, in the other dimension they ended up in. It's your soul. Pythagoras wrote about this exact same thing it just had different terminology. I learned my hippie weird shit from some of the greatest writers ever known, my fellow Americans are just too stupid and lazy to read about why those guys are so great. They likely assume they were all football players at some point and got advertising deals.
Cool story Kaku. Lets talk about something more complex... Like precognitive dreams. I've had several when I was younger that eventually came true and I realized it as it was happening in real life and was able to alter the real life event part way through a couple times just because I wanted to challenged myself at that point as asked myself if I could alter what was about to happen. Most of the time I just let events unfold though as they did in the dreams. Also even more peculiar is sexual dreams I would have some times about women I had never seen naked before yet once I did see them, they looked exactly the same as the dream. I think you should do further research into this and give some response as to what science has been able to find out, if anything at all.
You have to be really closed minded to denounce all of these testimonies of people having Lucid Dreams... Everything around us is basically data. Think of our brains as an advanced PC, and our "consciousness" is our Account Username. The Unconscious is the built in files that that needs permisson from an Admin to access. The joke is that we're our own Admin, but we have no idea how to access our own files! This is exactly what Lucid Dreaming is! Giving yourself permission to peek into your stored files! Lucid Dreaming is a mere stepping stone to something even greater... All minds are linked together unconsciously, forming a mass network of minds equivalent to the Internet. When you establish the connection to this "Network" you can get insight about something someone without ever reasoning as how you came to the conclusion (Insight). What you basically did was obtain that data from somewhere or someone else. This is what I tell my friends when they are baffled by this idea. "Look at it this way. The reason you dream about sex and may experience wet dreams at night is the very same reason you go to a porn site to masturbate when no one is around." Basically we built and mass marketed a device that does exactly what our brains already can do! :D
Blklee 5G .... You're special... I have no fucking clue what you are talking about... You're either responding to the wrong topic, or you're just really... really... lost.
Dead Zone I was explaining somewhat of how our brain does what it does, but had forgotten to add precognitive dreams. When you draw insight from your unconscious mind you can see into your possible futures (Precognition). When you draw insight from the Collective Unconscious you can see into the lives of others, and experience what they feel from their perspective. You are obtaining information in a similar fashion that a PC would. Because your brain is basically a highly advanced PC... In order to experience "ESP" you have learn how to maintain awareness within the states of mind in which we typically lose our awareness i.e sleep... Thats why I posted that dreams were a stepping stone.
why didn't he talk about when some people have dreams about something that then happens in the future ,kinda like visions. i really want to hear about it.
Along time ago I had a dream and after a while I woke up and had to go to the bathroom. Goin back to bed I feel asleep and my dream continued on from where it left off. after another few hours or so , I awake again and went to the bathroom , only to go back to bed and continue on with the same dream . so I actually had a long running dream in 3 parts over about 6 or 7 hours. To this day I have never been able to do that again.
i'm afraid that's not scientifically proved, at least in human brains. Even if I personally believe it, Mr. Kaku is a scientist though and should speak about facts.
I had a dream few days were a huge long spacecraft flew over slowly. It was so detailed with lights and markings. Second I woke up I was just amazed how the brain could make something up like that.
It didn't really make it up. Your mind used bits and pieces of things you've seen to produce that image. Perhaps from Star Wars or Star Trek. The imagery of your dreams can only come from what you have seen. If you have never seen an airplane, you will never dream of an airplane. That's why blind people dream of sounds and touch.
Its interesting that the imagination doesnt really imagine things but sew things together. Itd be fascinating to imagine different colors, or pitches of sounds
It's okay, I don't either. It helps me to realize it's called, "Big think," as opposed to, "Big Just Believe What I'm Saying, Okay?!" The things he covers are often ideas brought from the leading edges of science. These are things to consider, to research, to discuss, not to blindly accept. So, it's damned good your "fact checker" kicks in and calls 'BS' - but as long as we're also appreciating the ideas for what they are, I think they hold significant value. ---- gets on soapbox ----- That's always been a problem with the thinking of the masses. They/we've always wanted people to do our thinking for us and tell us the 'correct' answer. It works wonderfully with much of our lives, like when our car isn't starting, it's nice to have an expert around to tell us the correct answer regarding getting it started again. However, when considering the mysteries of the human mind and the universe at large (or very small), we tend to look for the same thing, when what we should realize is there is no "cosmic mechanic" that knows all. There are only a few people who have some very interesting ideas about the nature of the unknown, and that they are guides or springboards for our own thinking and not answer givers. It's in situations like these that we need to use our amazing brains to add to the search for answers, instead of wasting our great potential and waiting for the answers to arrive. ---- falls off soapbox ----
Niosus i know i do it very often, i'm not talking about his subject, just that its hard to take him seriously due to him coming off a lot like the "it was aliens" guy from the history channel. a lot of the times when i come across a documentary/show about something like the multiverse, parallel dimensions and time travel he usually shows up.
Me. I do. Almost always. It is a display of a highly developed and well thought out principle of conscious thought(energy) expressed as form(matter). As we speak, the energy of our thoughts is transmuted to matter, as the sound waves interact with the subatomic particles that constitute "air". I think.
I sometimes get sleep paralysis, what I do is that I consciously, in my dreams I start breathing normally instead or hyperventilating, put myself together and try not to panic, and then I just try to do a sudden abrupt stretch of all my body and I wake up
+jsg He probably got ask another stupid question from another idiot, finally snapped and used his left hand to hold him as he tried to beat some common sense in! Have you heard some of the questions people ask him? Could you blame him? Lmao
Did you consider that he might spend time working with his hands? My friend has a PhD in microbiology and is a research scientist but he loves gardening and has built a fabulous garden on his own. Another who has a PhD in statistics plays basketball on the weekends.
Can one person not educate themselves on more than one topic? It's not as if he is really explaining anything complex. He is a smart man that enjoys more than just physics. Deal with it.
Enjoying a subject and addressing a wide audience on the subject are two different things. If they wanted to transmit something to do with dreams and neuroscience they should have someone who actually works on the subject.
Excellent break through. The unconscious mind in connection with the Amygdala has only just uncovered the tip of the iceberg. There is the emotional surface dream, the fear dreams and there is the dream of prophesy which is remarkably accurate. Which has been recognised in Eastern philosophy for centuries but still ridiculed in Western thought.
I used to like to go swimming in the ocean when I became lucid in my dreams. I won't ever forget the feeling of breathing water and knowing it was a dream. The only sad part was that nobody else knew it was a dream with me
I personally have lucid dreams. My first one was when I was about 9 years old. I was terrified. You feel awake but cannot move or talk. I try to wake myself up by telling myself over and over ,"you are dreaming wake up".
I never knew the concept of lucid dreaming was even under dispute. It doesn't happen often but there have been times where I become aware that I am dream and then take control of the dream. I thought this was something most people experience.
It is. But the "human experience" isn't proof of anything. Now they have proof to back up the claims. One could for instance assume that your "choices" are actually fabricated without you, you only experience them as choices and thus believe them to be just that. Now they have shown that it is, infact, the conciousness which dictates the terms of the dream.
As I often find myself saying when Michio Kaku shows up, COOL! B) (Though, I already knew lucid dreaming was true, I've been aware of myself in dreams) The trouble is staying with it. As soon as you become self-aware of where you are, dreaming, you get thrown out of it.
I'm a little further along than that. I can even change things if I try hard. But the only thing I've been able to change is the color of tree bark. Not impressive. I also can't make myself lucid dream, it just happens randomly sometimes.
I and a lot of people have KNOWN most of these findings for a very lo0ong time... Now that a physicist is saying it, everyone: so credible, much true, very science, wow
Except night terrors when you are dreaming and walking around . They are dangerous my brother used to have them thankfully I never did. My dreams are scary enough. Super nice guy. And I loved his trouser Theory ( multiple universes)
I have way too many dreams with my fact-checker fully operating and completely conscious. Many times I think to myself: "this has to be a dream, this is too weird" ha. sometimes I just want to rest, but sometimes its fun if I don't have stuff to do the next day.

TIME DILATION IS FULLY EXPLAINED, AS THE ULTIMATE MATHEMATICAL UNIFICATION OF PHYSICS/PHYSICAL EXPERIENCE IS CLEARLY PROVEN:
A PHOTON may be placed at the center of what is THE SUN (as A POINT, of course), AS the reduction of SPACE is offset by (or BALANCED with) the speed of light; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY; AS E=MC2 IS F=MA. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. (The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky.) Time DILATION ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that electromagnetism/ENERGY IS GRAVITY, as C4 is a POINT that is ELECTROMAGNETIC/GRAVITATIONAL (ON BALANCE) as SPACE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Time DILATION proves that electromagnetism/ENERGY IS GRAVITY, AS E=mc2 is DIRECTLY and fundamentally derived from F=ma. E=mc2 IS F=ma. A planet AND a star thus constitute what is A POINT in the night sky. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY. ACCORDINGLY, I have ALSO fully explained the MATHEMATICAL UNIFICATION of Einstein's equations and Maxwell's equations (GIVEN THE ADDITION OF A FOURTH SPATIAL DIMENSION); AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. The Sun AND the Earth are F=ma AND E=mc2. Great. SO, ultimately and truly, TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE; AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. AGAIN, time DILATION ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that E=MC2 is F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Great. Indeed, this NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. (E=mc2 IS F=ma.) Therefore, INSTANTANEITY is thus FUNDAMENTAL to what is the FULL and proper UNDERSTANDING of physics/physical experience; AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. SO, GRAVITATIONAL force/ENERGY IS proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Accordingly, the rotation of WHAT IS THE MOON matches it's revolution. MOREOVER, a given PLANET (including WHAT IS THE EARTH) sweeps out equal areas in equal times consistent WITH/AS E=MC2, F=MA, AND what is perpetual motion; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites, AS E=MC2 IS F=MA; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. GREAT !!! It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. BALANCE and completeness go hand in hand. Very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black. E=mc2 IS F=ma. "Mass"/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent with/as what is BALANCED ELECTROMAGNETIC/gravitational force/ENERGY, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. (Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE.) E=MC2 IS F=ma. Objects fall at the SAME RATE (neglecting air resistance, of course), AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. E=MC2 IS F=ma. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. Magnificent !!!

I think what causes dreams is actually not hard at all to figure out. While awake we mentally process everything in real time to be able to execute tasks throughout the day. When driving, you stop by the stop sign and wait for your turn to go. Your brain no longer needs to process anything having to do with that stop sign you passed because the task is done. Your brain dumps everything having to do with that stop sign. What causes people to have dreams? Computer processors process data in real time. Any data the processor cannot process in real time, because the load is too much to handle in real time, it goes to the memory module and stays in the memory module until the processor is ready to process that information. After the stored data gets processed, the data in the memory is no longer needed so the memory dumps that data to clear up space to store the next overload task. Our brain works exactly the same way. After you execute a task, you no longer need to think about it because the task is done. Let's say your brain can only store 10 unanswered questions. You got a missed call on your cellphone from a private number. You can't call back to find out who called because it's a private number. The "Who called?" question is now stuck in your memory because you can't "Process" who called. Now you got space in your brain for 9 unanswered questions. You gas up your car at a gas station and you noticed some weird person you don't recognize looking at you from a distance. Now you are asking yourself "Who was that? Why was that person looking at me?". That's two questions. Now you have room for 7 more unanswered questions. "Is it a bird? Is it a plane?" 5 more questions. "What's the name of that song?" 4 more questions. "When will I get my tax check?" 3 more. "Why is my stomach feeling funny?" 2 more. "Will it rain tomorrow?" 1 more and "Who ate the last cookie?" and done!
Your memory is full. You have 10 unanswered questions not getting solved. You go to sleep. Your brain says "Ok. Can't answer any of these questions! I'm going to dump all these questions because I need space!" so your memory dumps all 10 unanswered questions at random order. So that weird dream. "I was at a gas station when Superman came from out of nowhere and handed me my tax return check and then he flew away. I looked to my right and noticed a weird guy just standing looking at me while he ate a cookie. It began to rain. I got in my car. I got a call from my bank. The bank put me on hold with that one song I don't know the name of playing in the background. I hung up the phone because I needed to find a bathroom."
That's what dreams are. It's just your brain purging out useless information that's occupying space in your memory. The more random the order of the purge, the weirder the dreams are because nothing makes any sense or any connection.
I hope you can change the password on this Brain chip
From dunseith ND god bless you and family
I'm fascinated by how much of a knowledge theoretical physicist has, about psychology, phisiology, biology, anatomy, anthropology and all other sorts of science. Michio kaku is just genius, he can talk about anything
Just like oppenhimer.. he knows everything about everything... that's useful.. a walking wiki
the field you are writing about is called cognitive studies and as i've observerd Mr. Kaku either doesn't know what consciousness is or is not aware of the fact that scientist all over the globe are trying to find a real source and location of consciousness. he is just using his reputation as an appreciated physicist to talk about the stuff that he has no expertise in, which brings me to my point: no he shouldnt be talking about anything (at least in a sense of popularizing science before actually understanding the field)
I find that sometimes when I'm having a good dream, I can feel myself waking up and I can resist it. I can even resume a dream sometimes after waking up for a short period of time.
Did you have to practice to do this? My dreams have a habit of ending right before the good part it's building up to.
@@matturner6890 It's completely random. You have to need enough sleep to use the resume function.
I had the resume function in 3 parts . only has ever happened once in my lifetime though .@@leerman22
I have lucid dreams very, very often. It's an amazing experience because it feels so real. Like a commenter below me said, its almost like virtual reality. I can tell myself id like to go to my childhood home or see certain family members.
Is it something you taught yourself to do or something that just happens?
I used to have this often, even the ability to recognize nightmares and wake myself from them
Id like to have lucid dreams but I havent. What did you do about having a lucid dream?
Lucid dreaming = Virtual reality (biology edition)
Nnmbnmnm m to
The perfection of Mother Nature.
I wish I could multiplayer
How good lol
Lucid dreaming means the dreamer aware about the dream and also he can control the dream partially
I have been remembering my dreams every day since I was a child (I am in my late 40s) and I have been writing them down since childhood. I wake up tired every day because I am in amazing adventures in my dreams. They are often imbued with the classics (being late, being chased, being confused on what to do albeit feeling great pressure to complete a goal), but also filled with creative endeavor and solutions to my artistic hobbies or work. I did a sleep study but they only checked for sleep apnea, which resulted negative. I also dream of dead people giving me messages to their loved ones, and I dreamt of the future in a few occasions. And I talk and sleepwalk. Just to complete the picture. I have never met anyone like me.
ive been using lucid dreaming as an escape to my horrid life, everyday i just try my best to survive the day then go back dreaming during my night. most of the time I consider that real life is the dream and dreaming is the real life, my biggest hopes are one day we can connect all lucid dreams online.
have any tips for lucid dreaming?
Oh look, the reason everyone subbed to this channel.
Michio Kaku is an amazing physicist, but I do respect what everyone else has to say on this channel.
Yes, i do sign this :D
Haha, it really is true. Well, I love it when people like Fry, Tyson, Dawkins etc are on here but for some reason it seems Kaku is addicted to making these videos.
true that hahaha
yeah michio kaku is pretty nice
Dr. Kaku, I've been watching and listening to you for years. At first just as a scientist, but I've learned that you are fascinating and a great teacher in many things. Thank you for continuing to share and teach and give through the years.
Whatever Michio Kaku talks about is interesting.
+The All - Nighter unt
Lucid dreaming is one of the most interesting and fantastic things in existence, in my opinion.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the experience can be like a holodeck, and a lot of people have even used lucid dreams as a training ground for things that they want to improve in waking life.
One woman even tried boarding airplanes in her dreams to get rid of her fear of flying.
I wish I could do it. I've tried so hard for so long. So many methods to no avail! :( Maybe I'm too light a sleeper.
+tmstani23
I tried getting lucid dreams for two years before I had any real results, and after that point I could become lucid about 5-6 times a month for some time all of a sudden. =P (I have had a temporary break lately)
You will simply have to keep trying until you get them - it will happen when you least expect it, just like it did to me.
I was wondering, what have you done in order to become lucid?
I have found that one of the best ways to develop lucidity is by becoming genuinely suspicious about waking life itself - in other words, you should regularly double-check whether you are awake or asleep by trying to do impossible things (harmless, of course), like for example looking at an analogue clock twice and try changing the time with your mind or something like that.
This is a reasonable type of skepticism, because dreams can in fact sometimes feel exactly as if you are awake.
I have had several dreams where I have been like "yeah, I am obviously awake right now" and then I wake up!
So it is a good habit to perform "tests" in waking life and see if you can do something impossible.
If you remain in this kind of conscious and skeptical state for a few weeks or so then you will start acting that way in dreams as well, which can lead to lucidity.
I recommend that you check a few videos by Stephen LaBerge - he is a psychophysiologist and an expert dream researcher with a lot of personal experience with lucid dreaming, and he knows what he is talking about.
+tmstani23
I can also strongly recommend Stephen LaBerge's book "Exploring The World Of Lucid Dreaming".
That book is great, it's a very comprehensive guide for becoming lucid, and it gives a lot of interesting advice.
Some other great knowledgeable lucid dreaming experts are Robert Waggoner and Tim Post - those guys have a bunch of videos here on TH-cam.
Cool, thanks for all the advice and encouragement. I will check out the book. So far I've tried reality checks, wake induced with multiple techniques, dream planning, alarms, tried most of the techniques. Probably not for long enough the the longest I tried was probably a couple months straight.
Michio Kaku is awesome
You again... ;-;
Scientific master race.
GabeN is also quite "awesome" in all his glorious power.
He sounds full of shit to me
Except that he has no clue where Freud was from. He thinks Freud was "Venetian".
Now that was one of the more truly fun videos I have watched. I would like to see Michio take deeper steps in this realm and discuss the primary driver of the dream state, the release of DMT during this process.
There are also chemical states which enhance dreaming and ones which suppress dreaming. I think science is at the very early stages of understanding much of what goes on. I hope they continue their work.
Finally
scientific confirmation . I Have been a lucid dreamer since I was very young
(It doesn't happen all the time but when it does it is amazing) . whenever I
would ask someone if they have experienced such a thing they would say no.so I
learned to stop asking lol. the potential of harnessing this is huge :)
Yesss. When the dreams is so fantastical, I can tell it’s a dream. And if I try hard enough, I can actually replay the dream from the very beginning like I’m living inside of a movie.
@@munkeybutt It's a strange thing. I found that it's even possible to remember lucid dreams you've had months ago. Like they get hard wired in your brain differently.
favorite scientists by far
+Jay Tiger. I totally agree with you! Thumbs up.
This is amazing, I've been practicing lucid dreaming for about 3 years now and I know it's real, it's amazing to see the scientific explanation from my greatest hero in science, thank you Michio!
For those of you who ever questioned lucid dreaming, lay your skepticism aside! Fascinating stuff.
Ah you suffer from it. My condolences.
It's actually pretty common...
Its so badass. One of the funnest things Ive ever experienced.
@@zackhall2681
I love all the *vivid colors* 🌄
You can lucid dream while being half awake if the darkness is over saturated and there’s just enough light to conceptualize objects.
as a kid I could lucid dream regularly..i couldnt start the dream how i wanted..but once i was able to realize I was dreaming then I could take control and do whatever I wanted in the world i started in
Dr. Kaku is a huge legend. I do a lot of videos like the ones he does. I try to educate as many people as I can on all sorts of different topics. I love science
I really like to listen how a theoretical physicist, a legend, gives an explanation of something with contradictions. That makes you even more conscious, thanks Michio.
[time] - [captions]
2:25 - Your orbital frontal cortex that is your conscience is also shut off.
3:58 - In other words, he was conscious while he was dreaming.
I'm happy to be amongst those that can lucid dream.
Man, i could hear him speak all day about pretty much anything and love every second of it
Brain science and space science are my favorite subjects ;u;
Neurology and Cosmology
My fav ones are brain science , space science and computer science xD
For me it’s almost anything that has to do with the world. My mind never stops questioning... Now I know what Elon was talking about on Joe Rogan when he said “ You don’t necessarily want to be me “ or some to those lines.
Mine's dinosaurs and space
sameee
I dream every night remember all of them. I can fall asleep for 20 min nap and have a full dream. I def can lucid dream. After watching this realize I don’t smell things in dream but can taste ( which is related to smell haha) touch speak and feel. So trying to make myself smell In my dreams . Last night I had a dream walking through a path with tons of flowers. Still couldn’t smell them! Going keep trying at least got it in my head !
He hurt his right hand in a barfight. :D
Really? haha
Scientists have a Fight Club. Don't talk about it!
I'm going to guess a cat scratched him.
Belinda Gishnock You should see the cat.
well the guy shouldn't have been talking shit then.
I'm in awe of this man... So brilliant. It's so heartwarming to know the science is behind such an important tool. Lucid dreaming to me can become a fool-proof therapeutic activity.
It also opens your point of view to possibilities.
How he explains dreams and certain things in the brain being turned off, is incredibly similar to a psychedelic experience.
I didn't know there was even a debate as to whether lucid dreaming was real! I've gotten really good at it the last few years and I thought everyone experiences at least a few times. It's really easy when you know how to slip straight into one, it's kind of my hobby now (aka the reason not to get up).
Its strange how my brain has this curiosity to know what's going on in the brain.
Well there's a reason scientists call the human brain one of the most powerful, complex computers to ever exist. It's big, complex information processor.
Whoa
True 😂 My brain wants to know why it does what it does.
I love it how Michio Kaku is ever so often venturing into the misteries of neuroscience, we in the field of medicine/human health science need more people applying different types of knowledge such as physics in order to achieve complete theorems on the functions of our body.
dreams are just multi-verse memories when you think about it.
They’re just different universes in general, ones that could happen, ones that did happen, or something that’s going to happen.
Dreams are our mainline into pure imagination which might be the foundation of all reality. If it exist in our mind it may very well exist somewhere out there.
I believe the same.... What happening to us in reality is someone's dream in parallel universe.... The same me ...... 🥴
What you lot on about it’s just memories that you sort out ones asleep
Conciousness is absolutely amazing in itself!
I love how people still blindly assume that unless you have a piece of paper that "signifies" your knowledge of a subject: you cannot possibly know or understand anything about that subject. We all know that piece of paper represents the extent to which a person has gone to acquire knowledge in a certain area, but that in no way discredits or invalidates the words and ideas of people whom have acquired knowledge through other means.
In fact, in certain cases there are intelligent people whom do not have the proper documentation to back up their intelligence but nonetheless know more about a subject then some people who merely memorized the work of others. Initiative is so incredibly important especially when it comes to acquiring knowledge: we must be able to *understand* and not just be able to *know* why others have made certain conclusions.
Even with little knowledge of the subject area we can fact-check and understand that Kaku also understands what he is talking about. Lastly, I talk about things related to the individual's experience of the human condition and the perceptions and problems that emanate from it. Give me a shot if you're interested as I am always learning:) Good day to everyone
ofSix what an incredibly refreshing and enlightened perspective. It was a pleasure reading such an intelligent viewpoint. Thank you. I couldn't agree more.
Just a class in physics will get you through. You do not need a doctorate in physics. People with negative comments here simply lack the grey matter to understand what he is talking about.
@Victor Gibson yeah? Amaze me
For the most part College educated is government indoctrinated look at MD, s can't fix a damn thing
@Victor Gibson nice story... Not impressed
my dreams are so vivid its like I'm in another dimension. I've been lucid dreaming for 14 years now and have gained unlimited control and power within my dreams yet there are times where its like I'm living a separate life in another time. I can't quiet explain it but I always give myself time to wake and evaluate the events of my dream to dissect and decipher its contents. I do believe though that we have full control of the penial gland during sleep though its only speculation
Amazing how many people don't know about lucid dreams. I've taught my kids how to control their dreams when they had nightmares.
teach me senpai!
***** Be confident and stay calm. That may be hard when you're dreaming, but intense emotions tend to wake you up just like they do in regular dreams.
To induce them, what works best for me is to wake up during REM sleep (using an app on your phone, or by calculating and setting an alarm at a multiple of 90 minutes) and go back to bed. Go to the bathroom, go back to bed and sleep for an hour or something like that. Chances are you'll have a very vivid dream. Try to remember it, write it down. That is the most important step. Becoming lucid is useless when you forget.
Once you have vivid dreams you gotta do reality checks. Make them a habit. Try holding your nose with your mouth closed. When you're dreaming you'll be able to breathe. Another one is to try pushing your thumb through the palm of your hand. You can also check the time twice and see if it stays the same or if you can even remember it. There are plenty of habits you can make yourself do in the hopes of doing the same in a dream. I personally don't use reality checks any more, I seem to be able to just figure it out without them. That will take practice though.
Since this is your unconsciousness, being excited about it is also important. If you really want a lucid dream, it will really help. Think about it before you go to bed, make sure it is in your brain somewhere ;)
These are just some quick tips. Google is your best friend. Good luck!
Niosus Just to expand, my reality checks are pain (can't feel it in a dream) and I can't read in a dream. If I can't do one of these things, I recognize I'm in a dream and I can alter stuff. On occasion I can force myself awake.
Niosus Sounds like it came out of Inception! (But I assume Inception is based on lucid dreaming, so it's the other way around). I wish I could lucid dream, but it's just too much work to practice while I'm enjoying my time in wonderland.
Cat the Turtle It is indeed inspired by it. The lead writer is an avid lucid dreamer I believe. I could be wrong though.
I've lucid dreamed many times when I was younger, I could actually change it's course and teleport myself to different parts of the landscape. So, I've experienced almost everything that's been shown in Inception.
I've been practicing lucid dreaming for years, it's amazing!
I don't buy it
Since our thinking processes are resting while we sleep, I can only think that it is our spirit that travels in the spirit world that we call dreaming. So, it is not scientific or psychological. It is spirit world. I'm still trying to figure out who is directing the kinds of dreams I get.
Its so wonderful just listening to Him !!!
Dreams are a big mystery, but the moment of waking up is a mind-blower. I once had a nightmare that I was standing in a field, and I turned around to see a large male African lion staring at me a few meters away. It frightened me so much that I just stood there paralyzed as the lion lunged toward me, scaring me awake in a cold sweat. After several seconds, I realized I was awake and still paralyzed! Maybe awakening is a more gradual process than it seems afterward. Sir Arthur Eddington once said "Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we *can* imagine."... the same could be argued for that 'inner space' between our ears!
+SIMKINETICS Generally if I experience a death in my dream I wake up at that point, and my body definitely has flooded itself with flight or fight response chemicals.
I like Michio Kaku :)
I been lucid dreaming since I was 13. It is amazing! 34 now. Started so I could get rid of my nightmares, and it worked. Have not had a bad dream since and even if I do I can change it or have fun with it, even being able to watch if I don't feel like editing it. Sometimes random can come out with very interesting results.
I’ve been trying to lucid dream for years now , sadly I can’t. I can’t even have a normal dream 😞
Imagination and dreaming are made of the same material. I wonder when will we be able to harness that material to view outcomes in a visual manner
Interesting
I often experience that i fall asleep and dreams begin, images and events but I am still awake.... I am watching, i am there, and the clarity of my perception is perfect. It feels more real than wakeful state of everyday life. It's a very pleasant experience. Eventually I lose that awareness. And it's spontaneous, i only have to be interested in the pictures and it happens
Dreaming is your subconscious mind playing in 4D world through your memories while half of your conscious mind is shut down. This is why faling asleep is similar to death! We are being prepeared each night for death!
Dreaming could be explained when half of your conscious mind connects with half of your subconscious mind by sharing the information and its memories and this is how every night our soal collects or downloads information and knowledge so that it could save it forever!
After this step subconscious mind transforms memories and expiriences to more psycadelic like things more wierder, because it all happens in 4D world. Dreams are working only in 4D world, becuse like thoughts every memory you think of appears instantly in the dream. Our soal can also give us clues in dreams. Subconscious mind is active while we are dreaming or when we are at deep rest state or deep meditative state in lower brain frequency state. Our brain vibrates!
So we are like half way into 4D world while dreaming which can be achieved also on psycadelics. It is like we are touching the 4D reality! So dreaming is a connection from conscious mind to subconscious mind.
Smal amounts of DMT chemicals might be released while dreaming to create more profound visuals or to help connect with our subconscious mind.
When we wake up and remember our dream, we actualy remember the downloaded information from subconscious mind to conscious mind.
Since most of the dreams happens in our subconscious mind, moast of the dreams we can't remember.
Oh yeah I can definitely relate to this. When ever I had a nightmare where I cannot win, I always think that’s unfair and tell my brain to give me some superpowers to override the nightmare scenario that I was in. So basically I can activate my control how the nightmare plays out. This didn’t once or twice, but virtually every single time I’m dreaming a nightmare..
I have had two dreams where I realized I was dreaming. However, I'm not sure if I was really consciously aware I was dreaming or if I was dreaming that I was consciously aware that I was dreaming........
The first time when I realized I was dreaming I started "spinning" because everything was turning white and I felt like I was waking up. Which I did wake up, into another dream which I didn't realize was a dream until I really woke up (or have I woke up yet?)
The second time I realized I was dreaming, I made an apple appear in my hand and started eating it and then I either woke up or slipped into another dream or something. But I don't even like apples that much. So dreaming of me eating one wouldn't be my first choice in things to do while lucid dreaming........More like eating a hot clown girls "apples"......
While reading your comment, my fact-check was in an excited mode.... until the bullshit started.
Sebastian Kudos What bullshit?
I've managed to lucid dream a couple of times by accident but have never been able to recreate it consciously as I lay in bed and relax and clear my mind etc etc - I've read a lot about it but, unfortunately, to no effect. I know its possible to go "Hey wait a minute.." in a dream but wish I could control it better and achieve it by my own doing.
lucid dreaming rocks, unless you get a bad trip
Do u think astral projecting is real? Like I can actually go spy on my ex while I'm asleep?
ThaSickLife505 bs
ive been having a lot of nightmares in recent years and in my dream i have to realize its a dream its not real it doesnt connect with the reality i knew when i went to sleep and i can just chill
ThaSickLife505 Are you that fucking stupid? You can do what ever the fuck you want while lucid dreaming. But it is still dreaming, in other words it's only real as imagination is. So yes you can spy or even fuck your ex while in lucid dreaming, but is't just the same as if you were to dream it in a regular dream (but you can control it).
ThaSickLife505 yes you control everything, unless you get a bad trip - some people get unexpected darkness or sth while lucid dreaming, which can freak you out
I remember I had a dream and I was in a barren place inside an advanced facility. After talking to a couple of people I started feeling tired and decided to sit outside where I can see an awesome view... after closing my eyes I woke up and the position I was sitting in my dream is the exact same position I was on my sofa. I wanted to go back in there because the air felt nice and wanted to see what that world is about.
In my dreams, whenever I am running from something, I find it hard to run, I have to constantly be looking back and something stops me from running. Does anyone know why this is?
Think you better shorten that question and type it into google buddy
It's because what he said at the end. You are actually paralyzed. Some people have a deficiency and can move while dreaming (sleep walking), But the rest of us, are entirely paralyzed and unable to enact any of those movements, that's what you are feeling; your limbs not responding. I have dreams in which I want to scream, and I get the same horrific feeling that I get when I can't run or punch.
Lucid dreamer here, I do not know in your case, but in me I think its because we are afraid of that something that is chasing us to catch us. you know in your dream that anything you think can happen.
try to think it can’t touch you, there it would get close no matter what. and also you can flying instead, running can give you cramps or muscle pain when you wake up.
Because it activates the sympathetic response within the body if you truly put your emotions into the dream. The sympathetic response is only there for wakefulness. You can do everything you do in real life but in your head ( until the sympathetic nerves are heightened then you wake up ). I know this because if I didn’t move a muscle laying down on my bed and do breathing exercises to relax every muscle I then direct the emotions to my mind and imagine I’m using those muscles even if they didn’t move and it will seem as real as it would if I was actually using those muscles... fascinating huh?
I've been able to control my dreams since I was a little kid, like 4 or 5. I still can. I can wake myself up almost anytime I want, rarely do I try to wake myself and fail. Lucid dreams are every night for me.
Actually, I have lucid dreams for a few times. I remember vividly that I was running in a alley, then I stop and suddenly remembered "Wait! This happens in my other dream sometime ago, but there is no staircase to a rooftop in this dream". Then I turned my head back again, there was immediately a staircase in exactly where I was thinking.
And I thought "Holy shit lucid dreaming".
From what I can remember, my first lucid dream was around age 11. I can remember this particular dream because it was one of the most terrifying experiences of my childhood. I was in my room sleeping and all of a sudden for whatever reason, I had woken up but i was paralyze at the same time, I was so terrified about not being able to open my eyes or arms that I had no idea what was going on, all i could think of was "I need some help but i can't scream or move, so maybe if I breathe harder my mom would somehow notice". She didn't. While in that state, my hearing had become super sensitive, I was able to listen to things that would normally go unnoticed, like the static white noise my stereo would emit. But because of my heighten sensitivity of hearing and not knowing what the hell I was experiencing, it had induced one the most vivid nightmares I've ever had. A couple of years ago I found out that what I had experience was a thing, that there is an actual term for it"lucid dreaming", and that it's not only possible to have a lucid dream but to control it. The last one I had was almost a year ago, but unlike my first, I was ready and in control.
That basically describes the experience I first had when i was about 12, it was absolutely terrifying and will never forget that heightened sense of pure fear. iv probably had about 100 over the past 20 years but nothing compares to that first time.
Dr Michio Kaku is a great scientist but I don't understand why they ask him questions that is not in his filed of expertise?
I prefer to see Dr Michio Kaku talks about Physics rather than dream, evolution, how brain works or biology.
Seeing as how his point was that scans (nuclear magnetic resonance imaging) have revealed that psychology-babel isn't "hogwash", as he put it, it does revolve around physics. Electromagnetic waves to detect neural signals and paths and map out the brain activity with psychological boundary conditions. Sounds like physics to me.
Sounds like you have no idea of how the scientific field evolves.. maybe you should read up on it? You know that if you become a chemist, you also learn about physics and biology? And the fields in which these chemists work can be anything from food processing to materials to medicin, etc etc. Thus a chemist may know a thing or two about things other than chemistry. As goes for physicists..
This is because he is largely a science popularizer, just like Neil DeGrasse Tyson, and Bill Nye. He probably would not do a lecture to other top scientists in this field, but explaining a simplified version of the ideas to the general public is not a problem at all.
He is trying to get you to think. Question everything.
And i hate that he answers.....he just do not know how to say "i do not know"
@@jishikujishiku5743 watch his video on dark matter. He does say we don't know. Dreams he knows somewhat about tho, and that's why he answers
I think the amygdala being active is just a product of your spirit (linked to your physical body, still) experiencing a spiritual development elsewhere, materialistically, rather than dreams being just a Picasso-esque visualization of stored-away emotions and feelings. The other parts of the brain being in hibernation while we still have a sense of experiencing our surroundings via awareness is similar to a driver still being mobile, even after stepping outside of the vehicle...
There is no evidence of anything called a spirit That is a primitive of view of consciousness and nothing more.
I concur..there is something more to dreaming.
Ive been lucid dreaming since a kid, I always remember my dreams, know when im in dreams. I can Establishing the difference while in dreams from dream state and real reality, even can change my dreams to whatever I want or feel at the time, and even have continued dreams back to back from separate nights. Is that the definition of lucid dreaming or something else, just curious, if anyone has information it would be greatly appreciated. thanks
Yh same it started when i was a kid but i feel like with time as my imagination levels went down it’s happening less and less
Holy shit, it makes sense now! I had a lucid dream once and didn't feel lucid at all (didn't realize the full implications and meaning of me being in a dream). So, while I was looking at the dream kitchen in front of me, I opened my dream eyes, which never made sense to me until now. What I truly opened was my conscience
i have always thought of my dreams as a window into one of the multiverses..... CRAZY?
***** So your space research tells you that dreams is only a theory? I just had a lucid one last night i was exploring another world until i woke up. I experienced it. So, was it a theory that i experienced? That's what you are saying?
technically this idea is not wrong. so long as you consider a universe created by a biological organ part of reality.
I consider dreams to be a part of reality because they are unfiltered visions of who you are, what you desire, what you need in life. When you start listening to your (day)dreams and act upon them your life becomes a lot easier.
Google made me do it no not in that sense. I completly agree dreams are a part of reality. Reality the bes i can define it is the culmination of sensor ry perception in a dream your brain mocks these sensory inputs exceptionally but a mock input is still input
word, i also agree with this interpretation
Found this guy by accident but he is mesmerizing. Finally some intelligent topics.
The Id, Ego and Superconcious co-relate to the Higher Self, Lower self and True Self of the eastern religions. This walks in line with physics, if you consider the body an individual atomic structure (an atom or "Adam"), we have the more positive aspect, a more negative aspect and a true aspect, which is generally clouded by the more negative aspects (fear, hatred, jealousy). A life which reflects a more positive environment will improve the overall structure of the "atom" (Adam) and at a certain point of development (free from "Sin" or negativity) can evolve, solidifying the higher aspect into a solid form. This is known as alchemy, the science of turning the negative aspects of lead into the more positive aspects of gold. Once free of this negativity, this atom becomes a free radical (see "Free radical theory of aging" -Denham Harman) and will no longer be bound to it's primary source (aka the Earth) and you will be a free to roam the entire Universe as an individual, retaining full consciousness. Metaphysics is simply a simile for Quantum mechanics.
Why cant you just keep your nuttery as in mox news? And what you said is incorrect. Phycisist would disagree with your misinformed assumptions.
Enough of this, it's the comment section of a *science* video, not a crackheads' meeting. Your attempt to connect that superstitious bullshit with science is ridiculous at best.
Artem Borisovskiy Sadly illogical nut jobs make up the majority of the modern world, and this new age hippie bull shit has taken deep roots in the up coming generation. Also if you notice this new age generation is very illogical and paranoid and think all kinds of crazy shit about governments and NWO. These people are a disease to progress.
Artem Borisovskiy It's actually relevant. When you sleep at night, you basically suffer a physical death. Your heart rate drops and your mind slips into it's Beta state, at which point, the electric spark, known as YOU, frees itself from the physical shell. This is the Atom/Adam I speak of, it is YOUR consciousness (or Soul) in an ethereal form which is produced by the electric currents in your body. You could even change the term "electric" over to digital and say a digital form of yourSELF has freed itself from the physical body (aka The Matrix). When Neo took the pill ,he basically killed himself in OUR dimension and had a digital self built and waiting for him, where they simply transferred his consciousness to, in the other dimension they ended up in. It's your soul. Pythagoras wrote about this exact same thing it just had different terminology. I learned my hippie weird shit from some of the greatest writers ever known, my fellow Americans are just too stupid and lazy to read about why those guys are so great. They likely assume they were all football players at some point and got advertising deals.
I admire this guy so much.
My fact checker enjoys this video very much.
Cool story Kaku.
Lets talk about something more complex...
Like precognitive dreams.
I've had several when I was younger that eventually came true and I realized it as it was happening in real life and was able to alter the real life event part way through a couple times just because I wanted to challenged myself at that point as asked myself if I could alter what was about to happen. Most of the time I just let events unfold though as they did in the dreams.
Also even more peculiar is sexual dreams I would have some times about women I had never seen naked before yet once I did see them, they looked exactly the same as the dream.
I think you should do further research into this and give some response as to what science has been able to find out, if anything at all.
Sounds awesome
ive have dreams like this too sometimes
You have to be really closed minded to denounce all of these testimonies of people having Lucid Dreams...
Everything around us is basically data. Think of our brains as an advanced PC, and our "consciousness" is our Account Username. The Unconscious is the built in files that that needs permisson from an Admin to access. The joke is that we're our own Admin, but we have no idea how to access our own files! This is exactly what Lucid Dreaming is! Giving yourself permission to peek into your stored files!
Lucid Dreaming is a mere stepping stone to something even greater... All minds are linked together unconsciously, forming a mass network of minds equivalent to the Internet. When you establish the connection to this "Network" you can get insight about something someone without ever reasoning as how you came to the conclusion (Insight). What you basically did was obtain that data from somewhere or someone else.
This is what I tell my friends when they are baffled by this idea. "Look at it this way. The reason you dream about sex and may experience wet dreams at night is the very same reason you go to a porn site to masturbate when no one is around."
Basically we built and mass marketed a device that does exactly what our brains already can do! :D
Blklee 5G .... You're special... I have no fucking clue what you are talking about... You're either responding to the wrong topic, or you're just really... really... lost.
Dead Zone I was explaining somewhat of how our brain does what it does, but had forgotten to add precognitive dreams. When you draw insight from your unconscious mind you can see into your possible futures (Precognition). When you draw insight from the Collective Unconscious you can see into the lives of others, and experience what they feel from their perspective. You are obtaining information in a similar fashion that a PC would. Because your brain is basically a highly advanced PC...
In order to experience "ESP" you have learn how to maintain awareness within the states of mind in which we typically lose our awareness i.e sleep... Thats why I posted that dreams were a stepping stone.
Amazing, finally someone understands the nature of consciousness! This is the biggest breakthtrough in the history of science.... sajk
why didn't he talk about when some people have dreams about something that then happens in the future ,kinda like visions. i really want to hear about it.
+Rayzxb Because that idea is ridiculous
Along time ago I had a dream and after a while I woke up and had to go to the bathroom. Goin back to bed I feel asleep and my dream continued on from where it left off. after another few hours or so , I awake again and went to the bathroom , only to go back to bed and continue on with the same dream . so I actually had a long running dream in 3 parts over about 6 or 7 hours. To this day I have never been able to do that again.
Kaku is neither a psychologist nor a sleep researcher
Let me guess. You are following a dream interpreter and what Kaku says is against what they tell you :)
Indeed he isn't. He sure loves the sound of his own voice. Guy is full of himself.
Many times in my dreams I jumped up and flew away from danger. I initiated this action as if I was sure that I can fly in my dreams.
he forgot to mention the pineal gland and dimethyltryptamine.
He can't cover everything. He's just a physicist giving a brief 4min lecture on dreams lol
i'm afraid that's not scientifically proved, at least in human brains. Even if I personally believe it, Mr. Kaku is a scientist though and should speak about facts.
I had a dream few days were a huge long spacecraft flew over slowly. It was so detailed with lights and markings. Second I woke up I was just amazed how the brain could make something up like that.
It didn't really make it up. Your mind used bits and pieces of things you've seen to produce that image. Perhaps from Star Wars or Star Trek. The imagery of your dreams can only come from what you have seen. If you have never seen an airplane, you will never dream of an airplane. That's why blind people dream of sounds and touch.
Chuong Do True, but I really never seen anything like it. Wish I could draw, would be amazing picture!
magzire the brain stores literally everything you see, you have seen it but you've long forgotten it.
Its interesting that the imagination doesnt really imagine things but sew things together. Itd be fascinating to imagine different colors, or pitches of sounds
The best motivational speech for humanity
dream within a dream?
He's by far my favorite scientist
i can never seem to take Michio seriously, mostly due to all the things hes been in talking about outlandish theories and speculation.
It's okay, I don't either. It helps me to realize it's called, "Big think," as opposed to, "Big Just Believe What I'm Saying, Okay?!" The things he covers are often ideas brought from the leading edges of science. These are things to consider, to research, to discuss, not to blindly accept. So, it's damned good your "fact checker" kicks in and calls 'BS' - but as long as we're also appreciating the ideas for what they are, I think they hold significant value.
---- gets on soapbox -----
That's always been a problem with the thinking of the masses. They/we've always wanted people to do our thinking for us and tell us the 'correct' answer. It works wonderfully with much of our lives, like when our car isn't starting, it's nice to have an expert around to tell us the correct answer regarding getting it started again.
However, when considering the mysteries of the human mind and the universe at large (or very small), we tend to look for the same thing, when what we should realize is there is no "cosmic mechanic" that knows all. There are only a few people who have some very interesting ideas about the nature of the unknown, and that they are guides or springboards for our own thinking and not answer givers. It's in situations like these that we need to use our amazing brains to add to the search for answers, instead of wasting our great potential and waiting for the answers to arrive.
---- falls off soapbox ----
Lucid dreaming is real though. It takes a little practice but pretty much anyone can do it.
Niosus
i know i do it very often, i'm not talking about his subject, just that its hard to take him seriously due to him coming off a lot like the "it was aliens" guy from the history channel. a lot of the times when i come across a documentary/show about something like the multiverse, parallel dimensions and time travel he usually shows up.
Rinoa Super-Genius Yeah... He's gone a bit... Off... He's going for the soundbite and is sacrificing integrity for it.
Im pretty sure he's not taking things too seriously as well and THATS why I respect him.
thank you Dr. Kaku, ive enjoyed all your work.
is the world of dreams another universe?
A Langenberg I always thought that, sort of like the movie avatar
I have done lucid dreaming many times. I have quite a few times gave conscious direction to my dreams. And that is 100% true.
What type of human being explain something without saying a single “Ummmm” 🤨????
Me. I do. Almost always.
It is a display of a highly developed and well thought out principle of conscious thought(energy) expressed as form(matter).
As we speak, the energy of our thoughts is transmuted to matter, as the sound waves interact with the subatomic particles that constitute "air".
I think.
I sometimes get sleep paralysis, what I do is that I consciously, in my dreams I start breathing normally instead or hyperventilating, put myself together and try not to panic, and then I just try to do a sudden abrupt stretch of all my body and I wake up
michio has a lot of cuts on his hands
i saw that. why. only right hand
+jsg He probably got ask another stupid question from another idiot, finally snapped and used his left hand to hold him as he tried to beat some common sense in! Have you heard some of the questions people ask him? Could you blame him? Lmao
Did you consider that he might spend time working with his hands? My friend has a PhD in microbiology and is a research scientist but he loves gardening and has built a fabulous garden on his own. Another who has a PhD in statistics plays basketball on the weekends.
Brilliantly explained the neuroscience of dreams.
Why does Kaku feel he needs to speak with authority about EVERYTHING? He should just stick to physics.
Can one person not educate themselves on more than one topic? It's not as if he is really explaining anything complex. He is a smart man that enjoys more than just physics. Deal with it.
Enjoying a subject and addressing a wide audience on the subject are two different things. If they wanted to transmit something to do with dreams and neuroscience they should have someone who actually works on the subject.
Read the description...
He's only stating facts on studies that have been done. How's he speaking with authority?
Envy is an ugly trait.
Excellent break through. The unconscious mind in connection with the Amygdala has only just uncovered the tip of the iceberg. There is the emotional surface dream, the fear dreams and there is the dream of prophesy which is remarkably accurate. Which has been recognised in Eastern philosophy for centuries but still ridiculed in Western thought.
I used to like to go swimming in the ocean when I became lucid in my dreams. I won't ever forget the feeling of breathing water and knowing it was a dream. The only sad part was that nobody else knew it was a dream with me
Michiko Kaku is incredible human being 🙏
Dr. Kaku is one of my favorite people.
love michio kaku's creative thinking
I personally have lucid dreams. My first one was when I was about 9 years old. I was terrified. You feel awake but cannot move or talk. I try to wake myself up by telling myself over and over ,"you are dreaming wake up".
He has so much information
Whoa you just blow my mind.
absolutely ryt sir....huge fan!!
Michio is the reason i subbed and the reason i come back
I absolutely appreciate this man!
VERY interesting, I've been wondering about all of this for a while.
I never knew the concept of lucid dreaming was even under dispute. It doesn't happen often but there have been times where I become aware that I am dream and then take control of the dream. I thought this was something most people experience.
It is. But the "human experience" isn't proof of anything. Now they have proof to back up the claims. One could for instance assume that your "choices" are actually fabricated without you, you only experience them as choices and thus believe them to be just that. Now they have shown that it is, infact, the conciousness which dictates the terms of the dream.
Vrig
Ah. I thought they had meant that the experience of lucid dream was under dispute, which would be ludicrous. That makes more sense.
As I often find myself saying when Michio Kaku shows up, COOL! B)
(Though, I already knew lucid dreaming was true, I've been aware of myself in dreams)
The trouble is staying with it. As soon as you become self-aware of where you are, dreaming, you get thrown out of it.
Same. I can manage to do a few things while lucid dreaming before I wake up. It usually involves XXX xD
I'm a little further along than that. I can even change things if I try hard. But the only thing I've been able to change is the color of tree bark. Not impressive. I also can't make myself lucid dream, it just happens randomly sometimes.
Nice to see Dr. RepeatWhatIJustSaidTwice is still around. ;)
I and a lot of people have KNOWN most of these findings for a very lo0ong time...
Now that a physicist is saying it,
everyone: so credible, much true, very science, wow
Except night terrors when you are dreaming and walking around . They are dangerous my brother used to have them thankfully I never did. My dreams are scary enough. Super nice guy. And I loved his trouser Theory ( multiple universes)
I have way too many dreams with my fact-checker fully operating and completely conscious. Many times I think to myself: "this has to be a dream, this is too weird" ha. sometimes I just want to rest, but sometimes its fun if I don't have stuff to do the next day.
