Re: Is Dreaming an Encryption Procedure?
“A Rube Goldberg machine, named after American cartoonist Rube Goldberg, is a chain reaction-type machine or contraption intentionally designed to perform a simple task in an indirect and overly complicated way. Usually, these machines consist of a series of simple unrelated devices; the action of each triggers the initiation of the next, eventually resulting in achieving a stated goal.”

“Whatever the neurological precursors are of the veto, those too are being kindled and made effective by processes which no one is conscious of... It’s not just that there’s a time difference... even if we were conscious at this first instant of this plan arising in the brain or this veto arising in the brain; its mere arising is also inscrutable.”
We’d be marginally aware of our veto power if dreams were a manifestation of that free won’t. So we’d possess some control over our veto mechanism even though the amnesia of sleep means we’d forget a lot of those instructions which we had given to the unconscious.

Re: Is Dreaming an Encryption Procedure?
Prehistoric societies lived for thousands of years under contrasting mystical and shamanic beliefs systems. Given the sheer timescales involved, is it possible to 100% eradicate their metaphysical interpretations? Could vestiges of self-awareness trickle down to future generations? For example religion is dwindling in a few secular countries and yet some of their core metaphysical beliefs like humility and charity remain in the collective psyche even though they’re often interpreted through a different lens. Maybe thousands of years of wonder and awe have left an infinitesimal imprint on our neurological tendencies to view ourselves as free agents.

Can the intended ending of a dream affect the beginning of that dream? If dreams are mostly deterministic then the start and finishing narrative of a dream are connected.

Re: Is Dreaming an Encryption Procedure?
Someone could view our time during the day as constant. It’s like we have 16 hours each day and restart at the same location in time. This might resemble a rewinding of time during sleep to return to the beginning again and refresh our timeline and memory.
