The debate about whether prophetic dreams exist has been going on for more than a century. In what interviews modern science thinks in an interview the program “Morning of Russia” said the head of the laboratory neurocomputer interfaces at Moscow State University Alexander Kaplan. From point science, what we dream is the result of our experiences and expectations. Moreover, one of the “regular” functions of the brain is predicting the future based on existing experience. Therefore in principle, there is nothing supernatural to see in a dream the likely development of events or the solution to a long-tormenting problem. The “mystical” sleep function is generally quite simple. explanation. As Alexander Kaplan explained, the brain is basically capable to predict something and while awake. However it is difficult due to a bunch of distractions and extraneous thoughts. Sleep state works like a filter – cuts off everything secondary, leaving for processing only important facts. As for common in rumor stories about prophetic dreams of famous people – for example, about how Mikhail Lomonosov dreamed about the place of death of his father – here, according to Alexander Kaplan, one must not forget that they largely based on later memories. Therefore difficult to say how exactly everything was in fact, whether memory real experiences and whether psychological the phenomenon of “lying as an eyewitness.” In general, in such cases it is not about the fact as such, and about the text dedicated to it, and in the interpretation texts everyone puts what he wants to see there.
