Answer 1

Well I try to explain with an example: when you try to draw a person from the memory the final result of the drawing ( at least if you are not a great artist ) I will not appear perfectly the same of the persone in real life, it’s the memory that fault in reality because as I have sad, the brain ( thought, memories, emotions) don’t have real instrument to recreate perfectly what you imagine so when you dream or you are going to sleep your brain are alone without the sense ( eyes,ears,touch ecc…) it’s a trace of the experience what you imagine. I hope I give to you an exhausting response 🤟🏾
