It's a good idea, but I think it does not work for everyone. I agree with nihilism, even before I knew about lucid dreams, but it has not helped me to have lucid dreams, and I have never thought about the 'realism' within a dream. |

Hello, I'd like to suggest the usage of Nihilism as a DILD-aiding technique. |

Happens to the best of us... better a necroed thread with a reply than a dead one with none in my opinion |

@sramsay12 If we are just interested on lucid dreaming and not so much on changing your beliefs ( in which case i donīt have any authority ) I suggest that we consider to engage on challenging naive realism. For instance, can you see that the color blue doesnīt exist, just the neural code for blue? Likewise, perhaps some animals may perceive colors, sounds, shapes that we donīt..This is a really interesting investigation, and itīs not a belief, but a deep exercise of skepticism. If we can cultivate the habit of investigating perception, we will change our mindset and a very deeply rooted one. We will accomplish Lucid Living and that may serve us well to Lucid Dreaming. |

Check your memory, did any suprising event happpen ? does the present make sense ? visualize what you will do when lucid, and how. Reality check as reminder of your intention to lucid dream tonight. Sleep as good as you can; when going to sleep, relax and invite whatever comes with curiosity. Grab your dream journal immediately as you awake and write everything you can recall (if only when you wake up for good). Keep calm, positive and persistent, and don't forget to have fun along the way
I have actually found myself thinking like this before.. like how there's no proof that anyone sees the color red as the same, and there's no way to find out.. |
