Abstract

ABSTRACT This article considers Yadin’s concept of an inner voice in dreams (this issue). It explores ways this voice might be similar to and different from varieties of ordinary thinking. The phenomenon of lucid dreaming is contemplated in order to ascertain the extent to which inner voice dreams can be regarded as lucid. Sterba’s two egos (experiencing and observing) and Yadin’s reflecting/judging/guiding inner voice are merged and expanded to reveal a multitude of selves cooperating under the executive direction of a superordinate self to form a Dream Team that instigates, creates, and benefits from our amazing nocturnal dramas. Implications of a comparative-integrative model of dreaming for understanding whether we are one self and/or many are discussed.
