Anonymous Coward User ID: 61557352 United States 08/14/2016 07:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Here's another question, why babies sleep a lot? Especially those newly born? They do not require sleep, there is no reason for them to sleep so much. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29147737 Maybe sleep is the default state. Babies just born do not have any memories. Science has no definitive answer for why we dream or even have to sleep. Studies have shown that brain activity in REM sleep states is the same as when we are awake. The are many forms of life that never "sleep" as we define it. ^^^this is wrong because recent scientific studies have found that during sleep cerebral spinal fluid washes the brain of toxins created during the day's activities. Very necessary for sanity. So...it is known why we sleep. |

User ID: 72535782 Australia 08/14/2016 08:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When you sleep your astral body separates from the physical body and attends PRANA dispensing stations for a top up. Prana...........IS NOT THE BREATH ! Prana is akin to a spiritual fuel which animates the being. Since the evil takeover eons ago prana is no longer freely available as it was intended to be by the True Creator. Because evil controls the physical realm it also controls the dispensation of Prana which it metes out miserly as part of the process of keeping us prisoners here. |

Do you believe in God? Started remembering sleep paralysis in my 20's and it is unpleasant. Maybe a once a month thing now. Grew up very religious..now no so much or unsure. I figured you had a sleep paralysis problem too. Religions are mostly man-made falsehood, God however, is very much real. And dreams are a portal that will allow you to see that, and attain true guidence, but you need to pay attention; to dreams, dream character, dream symbolism. There is information in dreams that 100 % originates outside the realm of your own consciousness. Recurring dream terrors is not way to live life, you need to take control of that world, and your faith in God will do that. You need to control your life in this world too, and whatever it is causing your seeming imbalance. You need to pray, with intention, knowing for a certainty there is a recipient to the words in your heart. Try some lucid dreaming techniques to improve your dream recollection. May God bless and guide you. Last Edited by Monotheism on 08/14/2016 08:28 PM |
