Many LDers say that time dilation is not possible in lucid dreams. However, I disagree. There are so many claims of people spending days, even weeks in dreams. Humans can experience real time dilation. Some drugs slow down time perception. The point is, I believe that through much practice and training of the mind, you will be able to dilate time to some degree. How far could it be taken? I obviously don't know since I haven't done it before, but I would guess that an average 20 minute dream could be dilated to feel like a few hours. I think we underestimate our minds. I believe that we can all train our minds to do any extra-ordinary thing that we can imagine through much practice, but most of us just don't ever do it. Yes, this might prove to be a very advanced technique, but wouldn't it be worth it to be able to spend hours upon hours totally free in the dreamworld?
I have come up with a few ideas on how this would be possible, but I am depending on one in particular. First of all, I think that having your subconscious handle the time dilation is a good idea as long as you do it correctly. A lot of lucid dreamers probably think that this does not work because they think they have tried it. But I'm not just talking about summoning a clock and making it move slower or altering it in some way (if this has worked for you please let me know hahah). For me, I would talk to my dream guide about dilating my dreamtime. He knows absolutely everything about my Dreamscape, and knows how to control every last aspect of it. So if this is possible, the best person help you out would be your dream guide. I have only talked to mine about it one time until now. What he told me is that yes it is possible, but that I should first improve my dream recall and that I would have to be fully lucid and present in the dreamworld. He said that my dream tech team is creating the device right now to make it possible, and that once he gets a hold of it, he will be the only one to handle it in the beginning. According to him, we need to take it slow (no pun intended), and start with something very basic and simple, and then build up to dilating time into longer periods like days.
I trust him 100%, so I will get back to everyone on how it turns out, but I want to ask all you to start pursuing time dilation. I would like to work with people that are really dedicated to seeing if this is possible, and how far we can take it since the LD community seems to be divided when it comes to time dilation. Like I said, you may need to be an advanced lucid dreamer to achieve this consistently, but you are all definitely welcome to try it out and get back to me on how it goes. Thank you for all of your help.
