I sort of made this point earlier, but I think it bears repeating: my approach to mindfulness ("vigilance") is not purposeless, pure awareness: I'm *specifically on the lookout for the dream state*. I think if you take that approach, color your awareness thoughts with *what you're looking for*, the awareness of your clothing will not simply slip by and miss the moment to recognize a dream.
