| Dec 27, 2023 at 0:22 | comment | added | Julius Hamilton | This is a more of an authentic answer to the question and it focuses on the phenomenology of dreaming, the quality of the dream-state. However, it may have room for development. | |

However, it seems that dreams are mostly experienced as memories, and the experience of the dream itself doesn't ever seem to be 'present'. My memories of what I know to be real apart from the present also have a fuzzy quality to them. They are never present. It is possible that a dream experienced in the present does occur in the same way reality does, but since they are only ever distinguished as dreams after the fact, they are always experienced as memories. | |
