		<description>Hi,

I've always had very detailed dreams since I was a kid, and would write down the more interesting ones. I continue to have them.
 I also have occasional precognitive dreams. Nothing dramatic- just small events in my everyday life. For instance, I mostly see words during hypnopompia and I later come across them during my writing or research. For instances, I recently saw the word ‘Dadu’. At that time I did not know what it meant and later during my research on the saint poet Kabir, I came across a reference to the sect of Dadu Panthis who are followers of Kabir. On another occasion, I saw a bright pink dress during hypnogogia and later I came across a photo of one of my relatives wearing the same saree !! The photo was taken recently so the possibility of my having seen the photograph some time in the past and then dreaming about it is ruled out.  This makes me wonder that whether even  minor happenings and encounters in our every day lives are predetermined ? I've had some other interesting experiences which I have mentioned in by blog: http://duskfalls.wordpress.com/. Please check them out. I would like your views on them.</description>

		<description>Hi Ben.  Thank you for stopping by; come back anytime.  Your question is a fascinating one.  I've thought about it many times... I guess in the end I would have to say that I think finding the answer inspires us to find new ways of thinking about reality.  Your second suggestion is a really interesting one: Ideas impressed on the swirling mass of possibilities influence and create actual real life events.  My sister and I were talking about this... I asked her: if a guy ties his bike to a bike rack and he has a bad feeling about it... and later comes back and it's stolen, then what's going on here!?  It's a chicken and the egg thing.  I asked her, did someone steal that bike because he was thinking about it, or was he thinking about it because the someone was about to steal that bike?  She said she thought it would be hard to separate the two... that they kind of blurred together.  So then i picture a kind of velocity, like a momentum that event has, and the more he thinks about it the more likely it is.  It would definitely be a reminder to him to listen to his gut.  So that's what happens with me; I'm learning more and more each day to trust my feelings about things... they're the best guide I have.  Even silly little things like which way to drive home after work.  I feel it out.  
&lt;br&gt;
In the case of my dream, I think that event was definitely destined to happen, and the dream prophesized it.</description>

		<description>Do you think the future is determined (therefore no free will?) and dreams give us a peek into this? Or perhaps the dream ended up influencing what was to happen later, sort of a catalyst in creating what would later become real?</description>
