Lucid dreaming revived
« on: February 12, 2013, 07:59:33 pm »
Hi guys,

We had a great topic from "lucid" a while ago where we discussed lucid dreaming. Now is any new guy experienced? Or did anyone continue.

I did, and i had great experience's for like half a year, then i dropped it for a little time. Now to begin the topic, dreamviews.com is a great forum about this. Lets discuss, Dreaming, how well do you remember them?

Mhm. That would be a dreaming that you dream that you think you dream . What is not an actual thought enough to break out of the dream mode and get into lucidity.

I actually haven't been lucid dreaming for awhile now sadly. One here and there every once in awhile though. Too busy to put enough focus in it which makes me sad. Although last night I had one actually. I didn't really affect my surroundings but I remember the dream becoming clear as real life and I started walking around my surroundings freely as though it was the real world. I remember looking for someone.

Not sure who though.

Yeah it's really something that you have to keep focusing on in order to maintain. It's funny that you started this thread now. I just recently started reading an old lucid dreaming book I had in order to hopefully get back into it.

I've posted it here before(although I have it in paperback). It's an old book about a mexican indian's apprenticeship with don Juan an Indian sorcerer. There is a whole series but the last book of the series is pertaining to lucid dreaming. It's really a great help. Even without actually doing any of what the shaman is teaching the apprentice, just the act of reading the books inspires lucid dreams in me. It's how I learned pretty much everything about lucid dreaming. Well, aside from personal experience.

It's called "The Art of Dreaming" by Carlos Castenda.

http://evilzone.org/ebooks/carlos-castaneda/msg35567/#msg35567

I'm pretty sure I included the whole series in there.

I always know that i'm dreaming... No control though ... the thought of controlling it never confess to my mind... Then I regret it in the morning.

That's one of the hardest steps I think..

Although I've been wrong before.

I remember very few dreams from my actual sleep. The most vivid and memorable dreams I have are the ones where I woke up for a couple seconds and then went back to sleep for about 10-15 minutes, and I can remember things down to the detailed texture on a pebble with those.

lol once you know it's a dream, everything just becomes more awesome. Few days ago I had this dream where I go in a temple like place, and there are so many cats. But the cats were BARKING! Now that's not right. So I knew it was a dream. I imagined one of the cat turning itself into Jenna Presley. I motorboated her. It's fun. :D But I start loosing control after this. :/

BTW I get tired after waking up. Is it normal?

I don't think that's directly related to lucid dreaming. Then again it depends of the person.
