Lucid dreaming is fun but i wonder if it defeats the actual purpose of dreams to filter things out of your brain.

What would you say is the purpose of dreams

The other day I dreamt that there were people skying down a slope on the side of a steep snowy hill, and I was wondering how dangerous it was, when suddenly I was getting a birds eye view of the place which made me realize I was dreaming and I gained some control but it was unstable at first, I felt like I was able to fly but would give me vertigo if I just bolted out like a spazz so I made an effort to control the speed and was able to fly around.

When I meditate if I start getting sleepy and it’s like my mind gains access to the dream world where I can suddenly remember and visualize all sorts of dreams I’ve had before, I‘ve always found that interesting.

Someone said that in our dreams when we talk we don’t move our lips or mouths, that we talk telepathically. Would be interesting to hear if anyone remembers talking the normal way in dreams.

Like I said I think its for the brain to process/filter things out, such as the subconscious. But I don't think anyone really knows.
