There are many types of paranormal experiences that have been reported in dreams. Some of them are:
Before I tell you about paranormal dreaming. I have to tell you about a Porpoise. You need to understand that stories about the paranormal are all like the porpoise story. The extraordinary ones remain in discussion, while failures are dropped. The guy who dreams up the lottery number and wins is news. The guy who loses his shirt on his "dream" number just goes home. The successful cases survive. They are all like the Porpoise story.
"In the tales of the sea, there are may stories about some poor lad who falls off the ship and watches as his ship sails away. His situation is hopeless. He is beginning to sink when a porpoise comes along, plays with the hapless man's body and bobs him to a desert island, where lo-and-behold, he survivves and is rescued.Gregory Bateson told the Porpoise Story in response to my question, "What do you think of Telepathy?"Upon his return home, he tells everyone the remarkable story of how his "Friend" the Porpoise saved him, saying, "Porpoises must sense something about us in danger and be motivated to help, blah, blah, blah."
All the poor lads who were bobbed out to sea by a Purpoise drowned. We only get the successful stories, the failure are all dead. So we have remarkable tales of the paranormal. Take that grain of salt, and please proceed.
