Fuck you I was just sharing my experience. Since you folks were talking about it, I’ve experienced it most of the people there are just mooks. Anyway do you think a day where someone can sleep in later as opposed to having to wake up earlier would make it easier to to enter the lucid state? I already wake up multiple times during the night without alarms at around the same hours, I just think if I could keep sleeping to like 7 or 8 I’d be able to mange the wbtb method, what are your thoughts? Have you ever lucid dreamed? What methods worked for you?

>Have you ever lucid dreamed
Yes plenty of times but not with the frequency that I would like.
>if I could keep sleeping to like 7 or 8 I’d be able to mange the wbtb method
Yes. I can sleep in a bit and I have definitely noticed that dreams are different once the sun comes up and 6-8 am is definitely where I have the most success with lucid dreaming.

Thanks for the help, I’ve never been completely lucid, but with keeping a journal they get really vivid and long, in those dreams I know I’m dreaming at some point and I don’t wake but I can’t control, Friday night I should t have to get up early for work so I’ll see if I can go back into rem after my first wake since I’ll have more time available.

It's interesting it seems like the more experience you get the more dreams solidify and become vivid narratives instead of discombobulated experiences. I feel like psychologist and people who haven't been able to move to the 'solid dream narrative' stage have these confusing mysterious experiences in dreams that they try to talk about in terms of symbolism and subconscious meanings and stuff.

Then you get into the phase were a dream is a long solid narrative that you can completely remember. I believe what happens is your dreaming body solidifies. You have an awake body and a dreaming body. The memory of the dream is essentially indistinguishable from a waking life memory. In my mind this is a next step, but it's still a trap. Dreams become like a movie/video game/virtual reality experience. I have had many dreams where I am like 'Hey this is a movie. I'm acting in a movie.' or something like that. Then I am following my own notion of a script or something like that. This thought pattern is a trap though because I don't want to be following a script or playing a video game. I want to be lucid.

Then when you are lucid you try to go places and do things but this is a trap too. 'Oh cool I'm dreaming! I'm going to go here and do this!' Then I start flying around and see all sorts of interesting scenery and people and things, but it's all just randomly generated content to keep you trapped in the dream even though you are lucid. You become distracted by randomly generated scenery and pulled back into the dream. When you are dreaming you don't get somewhere by going there. What you need to practice while lucid is generating what happens in the dream with your thoughts instead of just experiencing what the randomly generated dream has to offer. Slow the dream pace down to a reality pace and then practice creating what you want to experience in the dream with your thoughts.

lol 'randomly generated' there is nothing random in a dream, that's a very materialistic view of something so spiritual.

Got any spiritual dream experiences that you would like to share?
