Clipmarks - angesbiz's lucid dreams

by pokkets 9-3-2007

Lucid Dreaming is Like being aware that you are in a dream, and to some extent are able to affect the course of the dream. I've had dreams like that and wondered if there was a name for it, or if it can be explained. They also have details of ways to induce lucid dreams, but it seems the biggest ingredients are patience,and practice. Been trying-so far no luck. A lot of the ideas are interesting.

POPS Dream Views-Learning Lucid Dreaming

by pokkets 11-15-2007

I have had episodes of 'Lucid Dreaming' Where the dream is a state where there is the awareness that the experience is a dream. When it happened there was the awareness of both a relative ability to control actions, plus the 'knowledge' that being a dream, there was no danger of, for example 'falling off a cliff'. Knowing it is a dream, means Gravity has no hold, and the imagination can experience the dream equivalent of 'flying' While I have had the memory of the dreams, I did not consider it to be something that could be induced, rather I thought it was just a natural dream variation. This site gives some details on how it can be induced, with associated information on some clinical aspects of dreaming, and sleep. Somewhere I heard that one of the major factors that can dictate the nature of some dreams, is the thinking just before falling asleep. Particularly the last thought.

POPS Buddhists, Existentialists and Situationists: Waking up in Waking Life

by overture 12-28-2006

"Richard Linklater's 2002 film Waking Life is all about dreaming, and how we can sometimes control our dreams when they're lucid. Yet it's also about some broad philosophical issues, including one of the oldest philosophical conundrums, the distinction between appearance and reality."
