Sources of Dreams
How do we dream, or how does a dream come to our senses?
We know that the dream is a subject of applied psychology. There is also some connection of philosophy. One can have a never-ending discussion on the topic of human dreams.
No real-world detector or sensor has yet been developed which can quantitatively assess human dreams. There are, of course, applied psychological laboratory setups in the academic research arena that try to assess human neural systems.
It may not be objectively ascertained that only humans can dream. Other animals, such as the orang family, possess brains similar to humans. Their mental states during sleep may give rise to fragments of stimuli similar to dreams.
What are the sources of dreams?
The dream is a topic of deep research in applied psychology. In human life, the topic of dreams has special attention. Humans like to think about the dreams they dream of while asleep. But, sleep is probably not the source of dreams.
Although dreams appear to the human mind in a subconscious state of sleep, imagination can take place inside human minds at any time. Imagining that something is happening may be considered hallucination.
Since we live in the real world, our day-to-day experiences in the real life may, sometimes, act as the sources of our dreams. Our brain memory retains these experiences. The acts of celebrities may also add huge "salts" to dream-inducing memories.
Postscript
I found interesting discussions by the Nobel-winning physicist Richard P. Feynman in his book "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" It is a must-read book if you haven't read it.
Feynman postulated that one might control dreams, and he experimented with himself. He failed to control his dreams.
I think it is always better to daydream than to dream while asleep.
Reality often becomes a part of our dreams and vice versa.
Enjoy your dreams of life both while awake and asleep.
Try to connect work and daydreams.
