re: Physicists ... what do you think about fifth dimension travel?

I've had sleep paralysis 3 times in my life. I never saw anything. My eyes were wide open and I couldn't move an inch.
Freaked me out at first, but I told myself it will pass.

Been thinking about your above quote for daze.
If the pineal gland is our 3rd Eye, & can perceive stimuli that our other senses cannot, it would stand to reason that with the proximity of the 2,
the electrical impulses fed from the Pineal Gland to the optic nerve could be translated into images by the human eye, and essentially let us "see" visuals of what our 5 base senses cannot.
Hence, the dreaming while awake.
Whether we would be seeing into another "dimension" or not is an entirely different (but not unrelated) question altogether.

Seems to be the same 4-5 people that just keep replying to each other.
It's all one big circle jerk because they're the only ones that believe anything that's been put in this thread.

clearly you're interested, or you wouldn't have been following the thread the past 3 days.
Oh well, It's past time for the trolls to over run this thread anyways.

I'm genuinely shocked the thread got this far without it being hijacked.

They're trying ..I guess...(who cares).... I responded to RT's question from pages back b/c i woke up with an epiphany and I'm cool like that trying to help another brother searching for answers.
This thread could die for however long, and I won't care. The way I look at it, if someone has something meaningful to add, they can post days, weeks, or months from now.
I'm certainly not posting anything just to bump it or stoke the fire...we're way past that.
If the vandals want in, let em have their fun. IDGAG

Got to be careful here. It's easy to feel superior to you , as your troll attempts make you look like a kid who is upset he has nothing meaningful to contribute, and lives a shallow existence, so posts dumb nonsense in an attempt to distract from that. Poor guy.
With humility , comes wisdom. Since I'm aiming for wisdom ATM, I have no choice but to ignore all your further posts on the subject, as they contribute nothing but a child-like cloud of smugness over the entire endeavor.
It's nothing personal, just back to the poli-board for you where you can go back to enjoying the smell of your own farts, George Clooney

thanks ajax
was hoping for the drawing..
tho I did find a medical article on the pineal gland
which said it laid quite close to the optic nerve...not sure what that will serve up
anyways, doctors don't recognize the souls cuz they can't measure it, even in the face of testimony from folks who were OBE and witnessed what was done and said in the room, the docs refused to believe...wow, that's some intense hard core training to deny that...which was a side bar any ways.
The PITUITARY gland, a completely separate structure in another part of the brain, is very close to the optic chiasm. Is that what you're thinking of?
It's easy to get pineal and pituitary confused.
edit: I know this stuff because I work with central nervous system patients to treat their brain cancers. Brain anatomy is something I'm familiar with. I'm not a neurologist or anything, though.

Not trolling.

Fair enough. I'll revisit the theory if that's the case after researching further.
Are you saying its not possible for the pineal gland to communicate with our optics at all?
If our pineal gland is a third eye, the info has to be relayed somewhere I would think.
I'll hang up and listen.

My remote control can turn on my TV from across the room, but I prefer to think that it's my quantum fart ghosts tunneling into my future selves, which switch on the TV for me, instead of infrared light from a diode.

No, you're just repeating yourself and contributing absolutely nothing to a phenomenon that literally millions of people have reported experiencing who are alive today.
That's not including generations of people that are not living currently who also experienced this phenomenon .
If that's not a flame or a troll I don't know what is .
And to be honest I don't care but I'll sure as shite call it how I see it

I believe they can be explained by better understanding anatomy, physiology, and neurology through the lens of modern medicine and the scientific method. Most of the explanations in this thread are simply wrong because they are based upon incorrect beliefs about how the body and mind work.

We know that using drugs can interact with our brain's chemistry in such a way to produce very strange hallucinations (been there, done that, it was probably wilder than anything you guys have experienced in your sober lives). We know that these experiences are produced by the altered chemistry in our brains and they do not represent reality. If drugs can cause such experiences, then why couldn't the phenomena you are describing also be produced by the brain's chemistry?
Our experiences and sensations are not always representative of what's happening in reality. Your "unexplainable" experiences could simply be a product of your own brain slipping off the tracks a bit and losing track of reality.
That doesn't mean you're crazy--not at all. I think everyone is prone to such things. Dreams are an example of this. Our brains are active while we're asleep, and we experience the sensation of sight, for example, while our eyes are closed.
Anyway, I'm done rambling. I think these experiences are better explained as byproducts of our brains, and they do not represent anything 'real' outside of our brains.
edit: I'll add that there are books that seek to explain these kinds of things through the lens of real peer-reviewed science. Through psychology and neuroscience, especially.

Because it's alternate to your belief system?
You know, everything isn't black and white. Things are covered up all the time. There are more things out there than what the human body can perceive. There have been ancient groups of people that have discovered things we don't have any clue about and carved them on cave walls.
I don't expect much from close minded people that can't even open their minds to the possibility that stuff exists outside of the 9 to 5 workday and everyday, robotic life, where people literally wait to die in their tombs, which they call houses.
There's more to life and there are lots of intriguing possibilities out there. Life is full of unlimited potential and lambasting others for embracing it must be easy to do. I get it.

AJAX,
yeah, I'm not familiar with that.
won't even try to guess
especially since I never experienced that.
you'll likely have to find a 3rd eye forum...doctors are trained way differently, so not much help there
