I have been meditating for about 5 years on and off but since this past December it has been really gung ho. Especially during periods of intense meditation (2 ten day retreats) I have many lucid dreams. After watching Inception the other night I decided it was time to start cultivating these dreams... I have read a bit around the site, I will start a Dream Journal and reality check. The Tibetan Buddhist had an elaborate system for cultivating the dream state so I am going to begin to look into that... a lot of my interest in lucid dreaming has to do with extending my meditation practice.... I also just want the ability to manipulate the environment in whatever way I wish to... Last night I meditated for 40 minutes then went to sleep. I became lucid 3 times. Although I can't remember any more details... I didn't get excited and wake up... I just can't recall what I did. I remember a false awakening the 2nd time. I think one of the times I started practicing meditation in the dream. I have had much more vivid LD experiences before but it was my first night intentionally cultivating it... anyway look forward to the commnity... being around people more advanced than myself has done wonders for my meditation I have no doubt it will do the same for playing around with dreams...
