he just did. when i woke up and watch CNN and saw Sarah Palin, my jaw just dropped! - ~C4Chaos

i can still remember parts of the dream. i remember that two McCain advisers were arguing over the VP pick. one guy was vehemently disagreeing over the decision, saying that the "experience" argument they have for Obama will be thrown out the window with an "inexperienced" VP pick. a woman Senator who supported McCain's pick counter-argued (can't remember her argument) but i can remember the name of the Senator. it's Hutchison - http://www.senate.gov/~hutchi... - ~C4Chaos

Chaos: perhaps you have a talent for psychic dreaming. :) Really, you should keep a log of your dreams. - Sean McBride

"this has happened before, and this will happen again" :) - Christopher Galtenberg

@christopher: Shit? Yeah, it's happened before. It happens. It will happen again. Amen. - teh Dork Knight

@Sean. i don't think it's psychic dreaming. i think it's because our subconscious picks up stuff and process information even when we're sleeping and then spins them in our dreams. i was just caught off-guard of how timely and accurate my dream was. i wish i had dreamt of lottery numbers instead :) - ~C4Chaos

@Christopher. from the absolute/infinite point of view, does anything really happen? - ~C4Chaos

@C4, is there such thing as an infinite or absolute point of view? hmm... - Christopher Galtenberg

@Christopher from what i've read and from what people had told me, there is. but i have no experiential validation (yet), so it remains a belief and a theory for me. i'll let you know when i (consciously) experience that perspective. then again, it would only be theory and belief for you (unless you experience it first yourself). in the meantime, consider this: what's your perspective when you're in deep dreamless sleep? - ~C4Chaos

@C4, good question.... I've always thought there were multiple semi-active areas of the mind when awake, no one particular center, but they're all brought together for one active perspective - when sleeping, I think active areas are also resting for the most part, but still there's some mucking about going on, just at lower energy - so the center/perspective would be mostly incoherent, but not always - that's my first-blush response - Christopher Galtenberg

more than a decade ago I actually was 'conscious' of being in deep sleep - it's just plain emptiness; actually in my memory it's witish, endless and inclusive(that means prior to "me" as me). If that is the 'absolute point of view' than it's also absolutely meaningless, devoid of anything, and not worth striving for. Diving 'up' from deep sleep, "I" come into being synchronously with "you" and everything between - which is where it starts to become interesting! - Mushin Schilling

And, to add, I would never ever think of that 'point' of view (more a field-self-viewing) as absolute; never (only the mystics make it so, to maybe make it - and themselves - seem special). - Mushin Schilling

that rings true, @Mushin - I've felt myself in that 'deep field' before, and it's about as meaningful as wearing a warm blanket and looking thru binoculars with the lens cap still on - Christopher Galtenberg

maybe because you were looking for meaning while using a different context for interpretation? from my understanding a single experience won't cut it. - ~C4Chaos

that is quite possible, didn't occur to do anything else... - Christopher Galtenberg

FYI. i just couldn't resist to blog about it :) http://bit.ly/hbHCM - ~C4Chaos

Wow,~C. You really should start a dream journal. You're seriously tapped into the zeitgeist. (My dream of two nights ago was that Gaiam had been invaded by Russia. I think your brain is a little more skilled at effectively processing the collective consciousness.) - Siona van Dijk
