In dreams do other people behave as one would expect them to behave in reality?

Question

Some very clever and perceptive answers here. The short fast ones one cannot assimilate on the grounds: Yaoshi shuo de kuai, wo jiu ting bu dong: But one does appreciate the effort made.

Answer 1

True dreams. These are the dreams of the Prophets and of the righteous people who follow them. They may also happen to other people, but this is very rare. True dreams are those which come true in real life as they were seen in the dream.

Mixed up false dreams, which warn of something. These are of different types:

A. games of the Shaytaan to make a person distressed, such as when he sees his head cut off and he is following it, or he sees himself falling into a crisis and cannot find anyone to save him from it, and so on.

B. When he sees some of the angels telling him to do something forbidden, or other things that cannot possibly make sense.

C. When he sees something that happens to him in real life, or he wishes it would happen, and he sees it very realistically in his dream; or he see what usually happens to him when he is awake or what reflects his mood. These dreams usually speak of the future or the present, rarely of the past.

Answer 2

"Gosh 1, after examining your question, it appears that your actually asking about 'other people's dreams' and not mine. It's a very cleverly, worded question.
I'll presume you meant "my" dreams.
Sometimes others behave exactly as I expect them to and sometimes they don't. It's most disturbing when they don't ... I seem to lose all control and enter a fearful area where I have sudden wakeups ... wondering why I've had a dream that made me feel great fear. Being a Vietnam combat veteran, I have many very lucid dreams where I lose control of a combat situation and feel great fear and panic ... which wakes me up immediately. Other veterans in my unit, during action, generally behave in my dream as they did in reality and my greatest fears are those dealing with attempts to change their behavior toward more favorable outcomes, but, I can never seem to influence the outcomes. The same things occur over and over. I'm just not able to adjust the outcomes like some people I've read about can do. I wish I could."

Answer 3

I've had dreams where I could will a specific outcome or action, and then there are times where I've had dreams that I had no control over whatsoever. The latter dreams were always nightmares of some sort, so I'm assuming that's why I had no control over them. As far as I'm concerned, if it's not a nightmare, they behave how you would desire them to.

Answer 5

Depends on the expectation of the individual person - dreams are usually our unconscious minds way of processing every day things and working them out - well that's if you agree with Freud and Jung.

Answer 6

It is possible and would vary with the person and situation.. Maybe you and this other person were in a situation and it was something you thought about alot. Then in your dream it happens in the same way....simply yes

Answer 7

When I dream I usually don't know it's a dream at first and that's why I behave in them.
