deja vu should not be mistaken as predicting future or premonition.
Cause with deja vu, you do not see it in advance. You will only realize it while the event is happening or after it happened. |

QUOTE(VMSmith @ Sep 15 2010, 06:00 PM) From wikipedia: What are you trying to say with that definition? Maybe you do not understand what I am trying to say. Okay here is my second attempt.Déjà vu (pronounced /ˈdeɪʒɑː ˈvuː/ ( listen) DAY-zhah VOO; French: [deʒa vy] ( listen), meaning "already seen", from Greek παρα "para," "near, against, contrary to" + μνήμη "mēmē," "memory"), is the experience of feeling sure that one has witnessed or experienced a new situation previously (an individual feels as though an event has already happened or has happened in the recent past), although the exact circumstances of the previous encounter are uncertain.  With deja vu... The event happened, for example, an accident. You will only REALIZE that your have seen the images before WHILE it is happening or AFTER it has happened. With premonition.... Before the event happen, you will yell...accident....you will KNOW the accident going to happen BEFORE it happened. Both also deals with images or experience you had previously.

QUOTE(dkk @ Sep 17 2010, 09:51 AM) Deja vu is a memory of a future event. One that hasn't occurred yet. If you're wondering how we can remember something that has yet to happen, the explanation is simple. There is no free will. It is just an illusion. We are characters in a movie. We think that we are making choices, but in fact everything has already been laid out. The future is predetermined. wow..i have a deja vu now....wait..no...it's a context from the movie Matrix... |
