Attempt 16:
I now understand what Don Juan ment with intending and why Thomas Campbell stress to not have hope, fear or expectations while meditating.
I wen to bed last night and started to think or chant of the sound "ah-lum-baa-dee-dum" over and over since I don't have any intellectual association to it, it was easy to return to even if I started to think random thoughts.
Suddenly I where inside a dream and dreamt that I were in my school blabla. Then I woke up and remembered to chant my mantra, and then I were inside a dream chanting the mantra! For some reason I started to hum my favourites song, but by singing my mantra as the lyrics. Muse - Uprising with ah-lum-baa-dee-dum lyrics ^^
I was definitelly more aware, but I never got lucid. Although I was aware of falling asleep!
Then I had some random dreams, still vivid but not interesting.

Ok what did Don Juan ment by intending then? It means to want it, but not wanting it (while pracctising). You are intending the correcy way when you realise how to do this. And that was what Don Juan couldn't explan how to do, and neither can I. Just trust that it will take care of itself and by just being aware of this, you will succeed.
That explains most of my spontanious lucid dreams I have got while I wasn't trying.
Thomas Campbell also talked about this. We have to approach without the ego so without hope, fear and expectations.
Just try to be conscious by focusing on the mantra. Don't try to be rational.
The energy body understand the intent not the mind. And you don't have to be rational the energy body exist and Don Juan was right, it's now proven with physics and metaphysics thanks to Thomas Campbell!
Although it can only be proven to YOU by EXPERIENCING it.
See you!
