Scenes in dreams appear in real life.
I'm afraid everyone will encounter a strange feeling of sudden germination in their life. When I looked at something, I suddenly realized that it had happened. I have been here, I have done it, I have heard such words, and the light at that time was like this ... At that moment, the brain sent us a signal, indicating that it realized what had happened. This phenomenon is called deja vu, that is, memory illusion, also known as memory illusion.
How can people have memories of the future?
Basic manifestations of memory illusion
Since ancient Greece, more than 65,438+0,000 stories have been recorded in chronicles, chronicles, philosophies and literary works, all of which are about someone suddenly feeling that he has become another person, or that he has reached another era. And they often quote many details that they don't even know, because it never happened. But they found and described this strange phenomenon. 1900, French doctor Florence Arnault also named it deja vu. He also concluded that this phenomenon not only exists in vision, but also appears in the form of dejaentendu (auditory illusion), dejalu (reading illusion) and dejaeprouve (experience illusion).
The manifestations of memory hallucinations are mostly too bizarre to explain. For example, some people believe in dreams that foretell good or bad. According to superstitious people, this is their soul's regular "business trip" in the past, so it has seen and experienced everything. And after a few days or even years, when their dreams come true, they will be surprised to "recognize" this strange situation. Foresight has therefore become a memory. Some people also blame these on the "ancestral memory" passed down from generation to generation under the influence of strong emotions.
For those who agree with the theory of reincarnation, the illusion of memory is also evidence that they have had past lives. For example, the Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras thought that he might have been a shepherd in a previous life. The actor Sylvester Starlow decided that he was a sentry of a nomadic tribe in his previous life. Their memory hallucinations were confirmed by hypnosis, which brought them back to the past.
Carl Gustav Jung, a famous Swiss psychologist and philosopher, first felt this way when he was 12 years old. From then on, he firmly believed that he was living another life at the same time, sometimes in the18th century. Writers Jack London and Conan Doyle also described the plot of memory illusion.
The comedy Magic, starring Sulika, is exactly the opposite of the illusion of memory, that is to say, it is a completely experienced sense of reality. I remember when the protagonist was preparing for the exam and looking for an outline in the street, there was a girl standing next to him. Being addicted to reading, he didn't find himself in her home. But then I went to her house when I was "conscious" and suddenly remembered it.
Holography and Memory Illusion
What is the secret of memory illusion?
Leonid Karashev, a researcher and associate professor of philosophy at the highest school of humanities of Russian National Humanities University, has a unique set of opinions. He said that many scholars believe that the memory illusion is caused by excessive fatigue and brain confusion, so they regard the unknown as known, but he tends to think that this is a "holographic illusion."
In his view, the principle of so-called holography is that any part of a photo can reproduce all the information of the original photo. In other words, tearing a photo into pieces, as long as there is one piece, can restore the overall image of the original photo. The so-called "holography" means that all information is contained locally. The strange phenomenon of memory hallucination is probably formed in a similar way.
In fact, all the information we often come into contact with in our lives is stored in the form of codes in our brains, while what we see and hear is hidden in the depths of our subconscious. This information will pop up as soon as there are signs of trouble, such as what smells, sounds, lights, and similar scenes will induce us to have an illusion, as if there was a similar situation 5~ 10 years ago. Although if carefully analyzed, there are still many differences.
Karasyev also believes that teenagers aged 65,438+07 are most prone to memory illusion, because they have little experience and are quite sensitive to various living conditions. Between the ages of 35 and 40, you will be hit by the illusion of memory for the second time. However, the feeling at this time has lacked the pure happiness of adolescence and is more of a mystery. By the age of 40, the illusion of memory is already a kind of sadness for all the things that have passed away. Especially people with depression and very neurotic and sensitive people often have memory illusions in their lives.
Madonna's strange feeling
Madonna, a famous singer, said in an interview that when she first visited the Forbidden City in Beijing, she felt familiar with every remote alley. So she dared to assert that she had been "the maid of the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty". Tina turner has a strange feeling, just like seeing a stranger. When she came to Egypt for the first time, she suddenly saw a familiar scene, so she suddenly "remembered" that she was the girlfriend of Queen Hatshepsut or even the Queen herself during the Pharaoh's period. Shaw Connery, who plays "007", said not long ago that he was a doctor of an African indigenous warrior tribe in his last life.
Karasyev thinks that this statement is quite absurd and not credible. But how could Connery have such a strange idea? Maybe it can inspire you to analyze the time when he spoke-that was after he participated in the filming of Good People in Africa. He plays a doctor in this film.
Lev tolstoy also described an experience of memory illusion in a letter to a friend. Once he went hunting and was chasing a rabbit. As a result, his horseshoe fell into a pit. He fell off his horse and fell heavily to the ground. At this time, he suddenly remembered clearly that more than 200 years ago, when he was another person, he fell from the saddle. Carla Diyev was asked how this would be explained.
Scientists' explanation is: lev tolstoy often rides a horse and hunts, and falls down many times, so it is not surprising that one of his falls is abnormal. Because the strange thing about memory illusion is that it does not appear when you encounter similar situations, but only when there are some elements hidden in a strange environment that can make you go back to the past.
Karasyev also believes that the illusion of memory is a beautiful feeling, which can make people feel optimistic and passionate, and also shows people how complicated and mysterious the world is, so there is no need to be afraid.
