Ever wonder how a young child can somehow play or write music as a prodigy? Ever have a very “real” dream and when you wake up (say, to take a leak), you cannot get it back or even remember it a short time later? He suggests the dream or the “talent” does not originate in your brain, but rather is “streamed” to your brain. Pretty interesting.

How does that account for people you know appearing in a dream under familiar appearances but the circumstances, e.g., the environment and the unfolding of the story, not to mention the goal and outcome, are usually altered to barely recognizable. The concurring theme is the people, usually correct mannerisms and behavior. It normally stops with that.
The other interesting dream scenario is a planning dream that can be very realistic. As a general contractor facing a big day, as often as not I would be going over the steps and procedures of the upcoming day. Many times in these dreams it was the personnel that were not all too familiar. But it was me and my story throughout. The outcome was typically helpful.
