2.1.6 Transcendence
The experience of being in a lucid dream clearly demonstrates the astonishing fact that the world we see is a construct of our minds. This concept, so elusive when sought in waking life, is the cornerstone of spiritual teachings. It forces us to look beyond everyday experience and ask, "If this is not real, what is?" Lucid dreaming, by so baldly baring a truth that many spend lives seeking, often triggers spiritual questioning in people who try it for far more mundane purposes. Not only does lucid dreaming lead to questioning the nature of reality, but for many it also has been a source of transcendent experience. Exalted and ecstatic states are common in lucid dreams. I will present several cases of individuals achieving states of union with the Highest, great peace and a new sense of their roles in life.
I have been trying to get one of these lately... keep up a dream jornal !
ReplyDeletei haven't had a dream in so long depressing
ReplyDeleteI love lucid dreaming... Only get it once a month though sadly.
ReplyDeleteyou need to work on your layout a bit. But i enjoyed reading the articles :)
ReplyDeleteMy problem is that I get too comforatable and fall dead asleep. Plus I can't sleep on my back so using headphone and binueral soundtracks won't work...damn I really want to try this out.
ReplyDeletei had a dream last night where I was speaking fluent French, idk how, I only know english and spanish!
ReplyDeleteI've found the only way I've got close to lucid dreaming is the wake-up-during-night trick. But even then, I'm such a deep sleeper..
ReplyDeletei love luciding
ReplyDeleteI've heard a lot about lucid dreaming, but never knew what it really was... Is there any way to induce them?
ReplyDeleteVery nice information you got here!
lucid dreaming is such a powerful tool to use, amazing how complex your mind is.
ReplyDeleteThe picture on top looks EXACTLY like a lucid dream I had the other week.
ReplyDeleteWow this looks interesting. Im the one that never remembers their dreams but found out how to increase the chances. Take ginko and st johns wort when you go to bed.
ReplyDeleteWhat sucks is, if you get to comfortable you'll fall dead asleep.
ReplyDeleteThis blog is also totally sweet :) I lucid dream occasionally, so this is related to my interests.
ReplyDeleteThanks for saying my blog is awesome! haha anyways, i totally agree with 'lucid dream clearly demonstrates the astonishing fact that the world we see is a construct of our minds.' It's crazy cuz most people I know haven't ever even heard of lucid dreaming, let alone come to this realization.
ReplyDeleteI have been lucid dreaming a lot more lately. Normally I simply DONT lucid dream. The difference I have made is that I have started polyphasically sleeping. If you want more info on polyphasic sleeping check out my blog. I do Everyman 3, and I used Stampi's napping template.
ReplyDeletewish i could lucid dream!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy your blog, I've only been able to lucid dream a couple of times but each time I found the dream to be inspirational.
