Thread: Good method of attaining lucidity. It works well!

Awesome. I'll try that. I'm guessing that this is a WILD technique?

I never read the WILD tutorial because I read it's bad for people who have to go to school/work. But this method has helped me.

Make a mini? Like the British car?

68%?

Hold up. . .

Shut the logic center off? If anything, that's what you need to become Lucid. Are you sure you didn't just word that part wrong? And what is the 68% thing? How lucid you are doesn't need to be measured in percentages.

I would say he means he has a 68 percent chance to get lucid every night.
you know what i mean? Now he is able to get lucid every fuckin night that makes me pretty jealous actually!
Hm snowy egypt, listen:
the thing with the logic is really strange....
But i think that the imagination of blue (= lucidity) taking over everything is such a strong visualization that ur gonna use the power of ur mind to get control.
hm you know his words : " lucidity vs logic " are pretty easy to misunderstand....
the funny thing about that is that his lucidity ,which overtakes everything ,means that his logic and consciousness overtake everything ... cause there is no lucidity without logic. If not it would be called usual dreaming ^^ and not lucidit....
but nevertheless iam gonna try that kind of technique right now !
There are so many ways to get lucid and so many different techniques ... i think everybody should try some until he finds one or another which fits good to his personality. Everybody is individual and at the same moment everybody is everything.

This... Lucidity is recognizing your dreaming, the logic center needs to be at least somewhat active to do this. As for the percentage thing, Its not a number, Most would say there are different types of lucidity.

Well, make one in your head. Imagine it's in an empty dark zone. You should see red and blow flowing through it in your head. Red=Logic, Blue=Lucidity. You want to imagine the blue overpowering the red and taking up all of the body. Do this every throughout the course of the day, and while your eyes are closed in bed at night. In your hopefully blue person in bed, make a mini you go to the brain and imagine yourself shutting down the logic center. Then, imagine it going into your brain to start the dreaming process. I literally fell asleep five minutes later. I usually don't fall asleep for 30 minutes every night. I also attained 100% lucidity for the first time using this. I originally only got about 68%.

Sounds like almost a simple brute force way of doing lucid dreaming. Now just learn how to get the visualization going..

People, I forgot , but you need to see the person meditating. Oops, sorry!

So am I drawing the outline around myself? I don't get it

So, it's essentially creating intent while utilizing the most illogical of visualizations.

There are better ways to go about doing this, but different things work for different people, I guess. I just wanted to point out that what's causing the lucidity is most likely strong intent being carried over into unconsciousness.

Pretty close to the workings of a MILD, actually. . .

You all should know that method 1 is a starter method. This method is advanced and simple. First, close your eyes. Your avatar in your head, see blue(lucidity),and red(logic)in him? Don't overpower the logic. Combine it with the lucidity. (I know blue and red make purple, but this is how it is.) Now you should have your avatar in your head filled with green. Now, have something, it can be anything, surrounding your green-filled avatar. It can also hover or circle your avatar. Make sure the avatar is meditating. Now have him/her saying ",I will lucid dream." Do this until you open your eyes. When your eyes are open, repeat that sentence your avatar was saying nonstop, but only say it three times. You will need to repeat this method occasionally throughout the day. At one point in the day, meditate the same way your avatar does, and use this method. Do it in bed until you are asleep.

Sounds like a rewording of practicing RCs during the day and MILD before bed. Correct me if I'm wrong. But if it works for you than I give ya kudos for that.

Well, I can't remember what an RC is, and I've never read the MILD tutorial. B.T.W. What is a DC?

Is it bothering anyone else that this hasn't been moved yet?

Also: Read.

Whoa, thanks. I totally thought it was already in Attaining.

Moved.

RC = Reality Check DC = Dream Character

Thank you for telling me! By the way, I've killed a DC before.

Ha ha nice, was it a lucid or non lucid dream?

I was lucid. Go to the dream journals and read ineverwakeup13's superdream journal to read about several DC murders.

You contradict yourself in so many ways.

Is this just a MILD with a nonsensical Visualization or am I missing something here?

No, it's not a MILD method. I swear I've never read the MILD tutorial. So no offense, but yes, you are missing something. You see, if this is what you say it is, well, then all I can say is it's just a method I thought up. It really helped me, so I put it on DV. So I hope we understand each other. Don't be confused. You don't have to but, maybe you should give it a shot. ?

This is more like a VILD. It will also probably only work for people who can visualize fairly well.

what about audioation? Heard this word the first time at singing lessons last week. Something about hearding the sounds instead of visualization. If that makes any sense...

Hmmm. Soo.....How long does it take for the dream to form? is it like a WILD, where you go directly (well not exactly directly) from conscious awake to conscious asleep? Cause that would be pretty hard with no REM cycle in progress. Or is it more of a DILD type thing, where you depend on working with your subconscious to increase the likelihood of an LD? It really is quite unclear when you get to the part of what you do as you fall asleep.
Still, it is an interesting idea, and if it works for you, all the power to you.
