lucid dreams
 

anybody have these? anybody train for them? I'm going to try a technique for them this weekend, where you sleep for 5 hours, wake up, and for one hour think only about lucid dreaming. Then you go back to sleep thinking about wanting to have a lucid dream. In tests this has a 60% sucess rate.

60% is a very small amount.

I suck at even remembering my dreams?

Why don't I ever question the weird things I see in dreams? I just go with them as if everything's normal. Maybe I don't ask enough questions when I'm awake. Rarely am I aware that I'm dreaming.

for the first time the other night, i was aware that i was dreaming during a dream. i'd rather not be aware of it though.

usually my dreams aren't far fetched. but when i sleep in a different place or bed than i usually do, my dreams can get pretty insane.

This used to really interest me, and I did have a couple. I suppose since I havent been focused on it for a while, it hasnt seemed to happen since then.

The idea is totally cool to me though.

I was able to make choices and things, knowing I was dreaming. i twas weird.

i think that's really stupid technique.. try to improve in trans technique..

ahhh thank you:) i adore him too

Im going to make an andy thread. he deserves more love.

have you seen his dvd? its wonderful.

you mean rivers and tides?

yup!

yeah that's amazing..

wasnt there a thread about this a month ago?..

I used to have lucid dreams when I was younger. Now I just dream that I've woken up and i'm getting ready for school etc. Basically all my dreams are variations of this.

I only dream a pitch black void. Sometimes it is red, but then I awake and is the sun hitting my face.

Haha, that's why I like where my room is in my house. The window is towards the west. But sometimes the sun shines off the window of nextdoor and hits my eye.

I think this is a topic of debate among whoever the professionals are that study this sort of thing. If the eye movement measurement is valid, then it really is interesting. I haven't looked this stuff up in a while, but my impression is that the actual measurement taken that makes lucid dreaming anything more than a pipe dream is under heavy fire.

With that said, I've had maybe ten clear cut lucid dreams, as far as I know. Most of them were very brief and involved removing myself from a nightmare - but maybe three or four were longer lasting and more interesting.

This stuff needs to be taken with a grain of salt though. I mean if it was real, don't you think there would be actual flourishing lucid dream academies by now? I currently tend to lean towards the idea that you realize you are dreaming is still just a part of the dream and that no real awakening actually occurs.
