For me after I wake up....no. But while I am dreaming they are.
They seem to be my real true life that is going on all the time but that I can only participate in while I am sleeping. The places I go and the people I meet actually seem more real to me than what I see here while awake. Is it like that for you? It seems like I know the people who populate my dreams so much better than real people, that they are part of my bigger spiritual family.

No, dreams are not more real to me than reality itself, however when I do dream they do seem very real at times like watching a movie but a really screwy movie for dreams tends to jump from one right into another...
About the only time a dream can become reality is when from time to time I will think I am dreaming and only then I discover that I had experience an OBE and then that is the only time I know what I had was not a dream at all for it had become a reality.

No. I can tell the difference between dreams and reality - even though dreams are a good way to get things straight in your head, and sometimes they are foretelling as well... at least, in my case they usually are.
Still they're not real. I don't expect everything that happened in the dream to happen in real life, because sometimes what happens in my dreams is just too absurd.
And all in all, they make good inspiration for writing novels... mine do, annyway!

Dreams and reality are an extension of one another or sometimes a reflection of one another. Have you ever been dreaming and thought to yourself, "I need to remember this when I wake up"? When we dream, our attention is away from the physical realm and existing in the astral or mental realm. These are no less real than the physical, just an interplay of energies through a slightly different perspective.

Sometimes dreams seem so real. Thursday night I had a dream about a person and he was so vivid and alive. Then Friday he walked into my work. He is an part of our org but very very distant, works ont he other side of the state. Cant remember much about the dream except he was drawing a symbol. He works with our org,but not closely. No clue, I was shocked and couldn't do anything but waive hello. Actually I had forgotten about the dream until I saw him.

They are the same to your brain - but all of the stimuli are spoofed, although you also may receive additional real stimuli (e.g. your partner snoring may be apparent as a growling animal, or an engine). The only effective difference is that a neural inhibitor restricts concious muscle activity from the neck down. Hence REM phases of sleep, sleep talking, teeth-grinding etc. are far more common occurances than such sleep disorders as sleepwalking. Involuntary muscle activity such as breathing and your heart pumping are not affected.

Most of the time I am loving my dream world. But it is sad to wake up and then try to go back to sleep if I have rested enough already. A lot of times I find myself waking up to find that I am trying to go back to sleep to finish my dream. If reality seems to overwhelming then I take a nap and see if I can dream to vent a little bit.

I love dreaming and it would be nice if we could be so into our dreams that we felt like we are living another life, but "reality" is where we live and are forced to live our days. I wonder if people who are in comas dream constantly and live in that reality.

No. Dreams occupy a small percentage of my attention as I really don't sleep all that much. Besides, I don't always remember my dreams and the ones I do remember are disjointed and incomplete.

According to "A Course in Miracles" this is all a dream. In the bible Adam falls asleep and know where else does it mention that he woke up?
