I'm wondering on something that has happened to me twice. Is it possible that while in a dream, to actually be taken to the place, where you dream about. Now I'm talking on this same planet.

I'm asking because in one paticular dream I go back to a place I used to live at, and verything fet to real, and when I woke up y back had scratch makrs on it from where I had slumper against a wall, and scrathed my back in the dream.

Now I know there are reported cases of dreamers getting the injuries and such things liek that from the dreams, bu is it possible to actually leave and apear there?

Could it have possibly been astral projection?

Not necissarily. In Astral projection you tend to be no solid capable of even walking through walls and such. To affect anything in Astral form would require much concentration. This case however might be a form of bilocation, a simialar thing as Astral projecti0on but more... substantial.

Needles it could also be a case of simple feedback from the dream. your mind was convinced it happened and your body injured itself as a result. Think of it as a Freddy krueger movie. Except in your case no boogie man.

Bilocation can be best explained as its etymology. Bi Two, Location place. Essentially your in two places at once. This can work in many ways scientific and mystic. some sort of temporal anomoly in space time could cause you to exist in in the same moment from seperate times. Dopplegangers are considered a form of bilocation. Bilocation is a step down from omnipresence. simply just being in two places at once. Other forms or variations are simple. Split your conciousness and let them form their own body. The specifications of each way are highly applicable but the way to truly do it is loss to me myself.

What Dante's saying here is that the possibility of what you are talking about does exist, but its likelihood, however, is not likely.
Typically, an astral projection happens on the astral plane, which overlaps with our own plane of existance, the one your concious mind typically operates in. I think astral projection is the more likely answer to your problem, considering the degree of difficulty in achieving biolocation.
I am not eliminating the possibility, however, that Dante's theory is correct, but first we try to eliminate the more likely solutions.
Your inherent connection to this place must have been the link your subconcious mind or else your astral form used in order to take you to the place you needed to be. Think to yourself, what reason would your subconcious have to take you to this place? Why did you take the path to that specific location?

I agree completely with this arguement. I have experienced this myself in a quite violent dream I had involving demons, if I remember correctly.
In my dream, I was stabbed in my right arm towards the shoulder where the trapezius muscle is (if my source here is correct).
After I woke, for a couple days later my arm felt bruised, but occasionaly I would feel a pins and needles sensation at the location and spreading through my arm. Since the source to me seemed astral, it only seemed fitting to find someone who could treat the part of the astral body that was manifesting such an injury. In any case, the pain departed and has not returned, and probably would have done so regardless of my action.
What was important is what I learned from the experience. Like I said in my previous post, what is it that you need to learn from? Analyze your dream more thoroughly, and include all present circumstances that might be related. I think you'll find your answer then.

In regards to Lila as well as my previous post there is yet one more explanation I myself have experienced but was not fully lets say sure. Another instance of Bi location might be a simple case of psychic or empathic bonding in some form or way. The place you use to live has many attachments to you becoming sort of an extension. breaking such bonds is easy but if you were lets say really fond of the place or had very good horrible experiences there, that part of you might have ben embedded when you left for another person, sensitive in some way to pick up on. This person or you might have perhaps at a single moment in which you were dreaming synced with yours. this is only plausible and my accoutn is the only experience I've been able to note.

just throwing it out there.

Thank you for throwing it out there, we were both circling around that, I think, and trying to express the same concept.

Well my experience was born of love and something more recent, not exactly bilocation or dreaming, I just put it out there as a possibility under the pretex that it is still yet an If, a possibility. Stranger things can happen.
