What Dreams Reveal About Reality?

During REM sleep, your brain becomes almost as active as when you are awake. Your eyes dart beneath closed lids, tracking scenes that exist only in your mind. Your body is paralyzed, prevented from acting out the dreams. And consciousness, rather than shutting down, creates vivid experiences that can be indistinguishable from waking life. Dreams include all sensory modalities: sight, sound, touch, taste, smell. You feel emotions as intensely as when awake, sometimes more so. You form memories within dreams, draw on knowledge, solve problems, make decisions. The brain is doing essentially what it does while awake: constructing a model of reality and placing you inside it. The only difference is that during dreams, the model is not constrained by sensory input from the external world. Consciousness is revealed as fundamentally a reality-generating engine.
