From my personal experience, I can see things in 3 dimensions, I can communicate and interact with others in my dreams.
Can we do the following while inside our dream:
In my experience, feeling, smelling in dreams and touching, yes, but colors, I remember only few.
Each time I have a an interesting dream, I try to analyse it:
1. Why that person is present in my dream?
2. Why those things are present?
3. Why that place?
4. Why that time?
Almost I find that before that dream, each principal element in that dream was passed quickly in my mind without taking care to it ( like when we are occupy by talking with someone and a friend pass and say hello without care to him, then after a time, we remember ).
Now my question is:
How can our mind compose between those different and scattered elements and produce for us a wonderful and exciting story?
Dear George
Indeed we can experience flying and seeing beautiful colors and items of original beautiful artistic value. I believe that painters such as Dali experienced ideas from their dreams. Regarding 3D it is indeed customary and I remember once visualizing even spatial 4D while half dreaming. Can't reproduce it since . Communicating with others in dreams is also customary.

HI Hanifa,
I face the same problem when I dreamed:
Re your question I don't have the answer, perhaps other RG scholars can help. I also have other questions not sure any other scholars can share their answers too.

Dear Fung:
During long time I slept without dreams. But getting older - about 5 years ago - every night I do. Those dreams are like color-movies and YES - I am acting as a movie director i.e. I can make changes in the scenario. More precisely - I do not know beforehand the scenario of my movie-dream, BUT to some extent it is predetermined by by the place where all the dream's events unfold. To make you understand me better - all the events of my dream happen on Kola Peninsula (above the polar circle) where me, my Father and our friends (usually 4-6 men) traveled on foot and on inflatable canoes. The location was - Plateau Keivy - a plateau with hundreds of lakes and small rivers full of trouts and Big Salmons. We spent over 20 summer vacations there. Now about the contents of my dreams: as I already told the Keivy plateu is dissected by a number of small springs -- some of them we know well... But during sleep - it is my own decision - which river - to choose for my dream !!! And I never choose a river we were before, neither the river - I watched in my previous movie dreams. As a screenwriter - during my sleep I create a new movie...
I never thought whether I can touch or feel the smell of the things inside inside the dream. Guess - not. But to change the scenario - I can do for sure.

P.S. I know - dreams proceed subconsciously. Do you think I am crazy ?
Dear George:
Thank you for your response.
Frankly speaking – your interpretation of my repetitive dreams
was somewhat unexpected for me. Maybe you are right. Then
I have to reconsider my own explanations of what I watch when
dreaming. Our touristic summer trips were the best I had in my life.
The members of my tourist group (and I was the leader) were my best
and wonderful friends. But by now all of them because of common reasons
(age, heart attack, car accidents) had recently passed away.
So in my memory I return back to better days when we were
together. And in my dreams – just as before – we are a famous
(here in Russia) pathfinders describing sailing/rafting directions,
river rapids pioneers.
Thank you once again,
Sincerely yours, Leonid
