think of how long the experience seems to be in the nightmare
then
realize that it actually happened in an instant.
I told you above how that can happen by using existing memory
what happens in the dream actually happened before or is a composite of what you remember in an instant.
you have no power during the dream
you only have power outside of the dream by building associations during therapy sessions.
this is the same for dream, lsd, nde etc.
no power in real time.
much power in using the mind for what it can do, i.e. form associative memories and recall them later in an instant.
In my normal wakeful state, all experiences, no matter how horrible, are normal experiences. That is to say, they are nowhere near as bad as what I experience in my nightmares. That is my definition of the term 'power.'
I honestly feel that in my wakeful state, that I have complete power against any horrible experience so that they all just automatically become very unpleasant experiences and not the indescribable horrible ones that I've experienced in my nightmares.
This all happens with no effort on my part. All horrible experiences are automatically nothing more than unpleasant experiences in my waking life. So me being awake somehow automatically gives me power so that any horrible experience in my waking life is nowhere near as bad as what I experience in my nightmares.
But you are saying I won't have this power during an nde. In other words, you are saying that any horrible experience during an nde will be just as bad or even worse than what I experience in my nightmares.
