Answer 1

can you explain de ja vu?

Answer 2

De ja vu is extremely amazing. often times some thing occurs and that i purely sense like i have considered it earlier, like that psychological image someway were given into my head, i do not how, notwithstanding it did!! that's strange!! De ja vu is the sizeable feeling that some thing has got here about earlier. not some thing serious, purely casual issues, like walking previous a particular tree or a word in a verbal substitute. some people say that desires someimes tell the destiny, so per chance that's linked to that. The human mind is as a lot a secret because the untravelled universe. no individual is conscious some thing about it, a thanks to get suggestions on it, from it, or maybe how a lot of it there is. we are able to in no way extremely understand the human mind. EVER.

Answer 3

The term déjà vu (French: "already seen", also called paramnesia) describes the experience of feeling that one has witnessed or experienced a new situation previously. The term was created by a French psychic researcher, Émile Boirac (1851–1917) in his book L'Avenir des sciences psychiques (The Future of Psychic Sciences), which expanded upon an essay he wrote while an undergraduate French concentrator at the University of Chicago. The experience of déjà vu is usually accompanied by a compelling sense of familiarity, and also a sense of "eerieness," "strangeness," or "weirdness." The "previous" experience is most frequently attributed to a dream, although in some cases there is a firm sense that the experience "genuinely happened" in the past.

Answer 4

I am rather cynical about parapsychology, however I have experienced a few instances of deja-vu, with witnesses when I was able to describe what was going to happen next. I have been able to connect most instances with dreams that I had sometimes years in the past. I am a lucid dreamer so perhaps that enhances my recall. If you discount time, all that will happen already has. This may seem like a strange concept but it is certainly within the realm of theoretical physics.

Answer 5

In at least some cses of deja vu, the mind does a bit of a hiccup and what you perceiveed a moment ago seems to be something you have recalled. You are in effect "remembering" what you are immediately seeing for the first time.
Similarly the mind does not store all the pricise details of a memory: yiour mind fills in the gaps with "logical" details, but the whole scene seems to be recalled from old memory. SOmetimes details are fleeting enough but strong (this often happens with fragrance-related memories): with lack of material to fill in details, the mind fills in with RECENT details, which match what you are just experiencing. You end up comparing a new experience with an old exerience with new detail.

Answer 6

Deja vu is the feeling that something has happened before WHEN IT HASN'T.
It happens to all of us from time to time, and is probably due to some sensory stimulus triggering a subliminal memory.
Sometimes it can be caused by a brain disorder. A friend of mine began to feel it almost all the time. It was so disturbing that he went to the doctor. The doctor took it very seriously, it turned out that he had a brain tumour. Possibly the feeling was caused by the pressure of the tumour on the brain.

Answer 7

About a year ago I had a dream my uncle was in hospital and I went to visit him. I checked on reception what ward he was on, but they had moved him, without changing the computer system. My local hospital is huge and I in my dream I remember shouting at the woman in reception as I'd had to drag a new born and my daughter around the whole hospital.

Last month, when he was rushed into hospital, I went to see him and stopped at reception to ask which ward he was in, I insisted they double check the ward. The receptionist was really off thinking I was mad, but when she phoned up, he had been moved.

Could be de ja vu, could be I just know how useless our hospital is.

Answer 8

im not sure all i know is this, when i was younger i had epilepsy slightly but i was told id have an extreme feeling of deja vu because of the epilepsy so maybe but then again they do say if ya have deja vu its because u were in d same situation in a before life so who knows?

Answer 9

when you feel like you've been in a certain situation before but you haven't. Some people say it's small things you are remembering from a past life.

Answer 10

I think it is accurate 'calculations' or expectations/predictions that , that baffle us when the situation actually happens, and the original thought or vision may have occurred in a dream. We don't accept co-incidences in some situations and the feeling we get when they DO happen is uncanniness.

Answer 11

Basically its just a familiar feeling you have in the same situation before. I dont beleive that brain slow thing.
