How can a nightmare or dying in a dream have anything to do with memory? Dreams are not even closely related to us, they are given to us, yes, given to us. OP's dilemma is completely different, he/She is experiencing real time viewing, something lm not familiar with. But l do know this, if you are or have been psychology scarred or hurt by someone it will affect your abilities to leave your body.. OP's capture by the police would have affected him/her mentally, it's not Karma (doesn't exist) it's trauma. [/quote] Well, considering the studies on Rats and even Humans show that we produce place-cells and time-cells in the hippocampus that replay during NREM1 and I've experienced memory consolidation many times in my own dreams I'll state again that the research shows memory-replay is a part of dreaming. That said, we also know dreams are episodic, semantic, spatial, sensory and temporal replay. In the case of other experiences outside of your waking life that stems from the semantic quality of dreams that can reflect other aspects of your character. I also know the memories we have in replay are not exclusive to just our waking life but that's for you to sort out in your own dreams what that means.

A little backstory...
Around the age of 16 I had the ability to lucid dream. I don't know all the technical words so I'll just explain it in simple terms. I could think of a subject/place/person, etc before going to sleep & then while asleep with 100% accuracy literally every single time I could tell you where a person was, what they were wearing, what they were doing, what they were going to do etc. I got a little cocky with this talent & started abusing it for personal gain. Long story short, the law got involved & I lost the ability seemingly overnight.
So here's my question: Can I regain this skill or did I f*ck that all up karma-wise? Previously I had the ability without aids such as background noises or whatever people use nowadays to enter that state of mind. I've sworn I'll never abuse that talent again (and I believe talents like this come from God) but I kinda feel like I had my chance & I abused it so He took it from me.
I'd like to hear what the experts in this field have to say about my query. Can I get it back? If so, how?
