In the realm of the paranormal, there are no absolute definition that accurately explains what a "dimension" is. Or, where is this "dimension" and can we feel or see this "dimension?" We read about a "dimension" as being a parallel universe that coexist with our universe. In this parallel universe time does not exist.
Does anyone else know anything relating to paranormal dimensions?

I agree that it sounds very complicated.
I do have a question though which is nothing to do with dimensions (I dont think, lol)
What are ley lines exactly?

I think dimensions doesn't always involve the tangible or be science fiction in its concept. One can debate if thought and each frequency range is a dimension in itself, but I think that's how it works, in order to explain how they all overlap one on top of another than to simply exist independently, especially if it entertains the notion of time travel, time slips, phantom towns and the feeling of being out of sync with reality. This idea might even explain how spirits can exist in our world but not be visible to the nakid eye. I think it's a reasonable hypothesis in explaining how the mediums/ psychics can be "tuned" into this spirit world. If one considers the Dreamtime of the Australian aborigines, that's a dimension that coexists within our own. To enter it can be as simple as going to sleep or being in an area where there is a "doorway." I can't help but think of ley lines, especially where a lot of them converge. These might be areas where it is easier for the two worlds to interact with one another.

I always remember being told that there was a parallel universe to the one we are in, where everything is the opposite to here. For example, if you are good looking here, you would be less so; if you were in ill-health here, you would have good health in this other universe.
Has anyone else heard of this?

I've heard of that (Kind of like the film Sliding Doors) but I'm not sure I believe in that dimention....because good would also be evil so everyone would be bad and do bad things instead of good!!!! Does that make sense!!...lol
In regards to Ley lines I found this that might help:
Leys
Ley lines are patterns of invisible lines with a complex power, which seem to link sacred places and natural magical site. In modern witchcraft and neo-paganism, these patterns and alignments are important for their apparent connection to the forces of the elements, the basis of natural magic.
A British amateur antiquarian, Alfred Watkins, put the original theory of Leys fourth in 1925. Watkins observed that man-made sacred places such as burial mounds, megaliths, churches and pagan worship sites, as well as natural peaks, magical springs and wells and other earth features seemed to align with one another.
The leys, as Watkins names them, were "old straight tracks" found by prehistoric let hunters, or Dodman surveyors, who mapped the countryside to find power spots for sacred constructions, trade routs and astronomical sites. Although the original mapping allegedly was done by prehistoric societies, Watkins included in his list of sites, pre-reformation churches.
His theory was controversial and was (and still is) rejected by scientists. Public interest waned in the 1940's but has increased since the 60's and 70's, along with the increased interest in the psychic and occult. Leys are also called Ley lines, a phrase which some feel is inaccurate.
Not all alignments are true leys. Modern ley-hunters map leys by checking the alignments of various locations according to what else of significance lies in a sight-line within a certain distance: a standing stone, church site, pagan sacred site, burial mound, mountain etc. Some alignments are astronomical, such as points where the sun rises at Beltane, the Solstices or Equinoxes. Some ley-hunters say that five alignments within 10 miles is required to establish a ley, while others maintain that 5 within 25 miles is sufficient. Dowsers say that in addition, the alignment must be a dowsable energy line.
Ley centres, places charged with energy, radiate at least seven ley lines and are situated over magnetic fields or blind springs, a primary spiral of converging primary geodetic lines (the shortest lines between two points on a curved surface). It is possible that ancient pagans were aware of this energy radiating up from the earth and situated their sacred sites accordingly. The energy charge is a vital force classed as either male or female depending on its rate of vibration, and it is present in all living material. In ley centres the charge may be natural or artificial.
Artificial charges may be induced in stones and metals by handling. Whether natural or artificial, the charge dissipates over time unless fixed by hammering, heating or the presence of a magical field.
The stones used to construct megalithic monuments, churches, holy wells and temples were charged by handling, then fixed by being shaped with the blows of axes and chisels. J.Havelock Fidler, British agricultural scientist and dowser, states that the magnitude of the charge is related to the number of blows and the dimensions of the stones. Therefore, the charge of megaliths would be huge, cremation pits; burials (such as those at Stonehenge), sacred sites and altars are also fixed with the charges. Fidler speculated that some megaliths might have been charged and fixed by witches or pagans who used the ‘cone of power’ ritual to raise and direct psychic power. In his experiments, Fidler found that he could impart greater charges to stones during a full moon, the time of greatest magical and psychic power.
Fidler also has found that, while the geomagnetic forces surrounding ley centres emit a beneficial energy, the charge of stones themselves seem to emit an energy detrimental to living things. This is apparently counteracted by the leys themselves, which redirect energy to other centres where it can be neutralised.
Most of the investigating and hunting of leys is done in the UK, though there is some evidence that leys exist in the US, France and Peru.
Hope this has helped!
p.s. If this is too long to keep here then I can move it to a new thread if you like?

Thanks Magenta that does help to understand what exactly Ley lines are.
I havent ever heard of that Gwen, but it does sound like the film sliding doors.

Personnaly I believe in Matrix theory (as you know it was a hot popular theory in Prinston university 6-7 years ago) by this theory all these worlds, ours, paranormal, or any other world you can trip to, by any method like using zen mode, or in meditation, are the programs running in our brain, and any rules role in these world are part of a big developing program. So time or any dimension are something conventional created by this programs for all of those, the only thing is how we can connect, or better say how we can find that neccesary "password" needed to connect to that world. Other thing is relation between these dimensions and forces, for example how gravity effect time, as gravity forces of a stars cluster bending time that much you have past present and future at the same time.

Well that's one of the most complex sets of theories i've ever seen in one place! certainly some very intruiging food for thought!

whilst having a deep and meaningful with my friends, we eventually came to the conclusion that nothing was real, psyics was meerly a poorly made way of 'Trying' to understand our surroundings and that any thing is technically possible.
Scientists can say where the matter came from (being the big bang theory) but they cant answer where the space came from. Time has no pysical or energy properties, so unless it were a frequency like that of the spectrums, it theoretically does not exist. No time, no space, equals nothing.
