Thread: Accidentally killing yourself when you think you are dreaming?

I'd just like to raise a point here. While yes I agree that most people will not wake up one day and think they're dreaming, there is a serious risk here that in messing with questions about what's real and what's not that we may inadvertently see that the lines get blurry. I've personally seen just about as blurry as those lines get but for obvious reasons I don't like to talk about that openly although if you want some stories about how dreams can creep into reality hit me up. Anyway, I think on the surface lucid dreaming is a fun thing everyone can do but when you get to a higher level of devotion and you really dig away at it, very strange things happen.

I'd compare it to quantum physics v.s classical physics. Classical is rather simple, easy to understand and describes the world quite nicely. However quantum physics is very abstract, difficult to understand rationally and it doesn't always give you the answers you're expecting or that you want.

It's a case of how far does the rabbit hole go. At the surface dreaming is nice, but deeper things become very strange and you've absolutely got to have your wits about you or it can effect your normal waking life.

Not to scare anyone but the mind is like an iceberg. It's not what's at the top that worries me.
