"No!" Technique (Montra Meditation)

Came up with a Mantra Meditation technique that help me have 3 lucid dreams last night. I thought when Im in a dream most times I am too accepting of the odd out of place things that are happening around me, so i wanted to make it clear that i would "not" be accepting of "anything" i came in contact with at the momment i slumber into my sleep. Life imitates art so if you decide to do this technique think about it like this... In Matrix 1 when did Neo truely become lucid and most powerful?? It was at the momment he said "NO". Smith and his goons fired on him and Neo sticks out his hand as if to say stop. The bullets pause in mid air, and he then starts to see the matrix for what it truely is.

"No!" Technique
http://penultima.files.wordpress.com...rix_vision.jpg

Step1: Go to bed and Lay on your back

Step2: Focus on your breathing for 1-5 mins until you feel completely relaxed

Step3: Think the word "No" in your mind and repeat it in a rhythm like Melody until it just flows naturally ( do this for about 2-5mins)

Step 4: Now that you have a "No" song in your head add to it the dream signs that you missed to become lucid. And say this in the same "No" melody u created. (for 2-5mins) Ex: "No... I can not fly" plug in what ever you like. You just want to get into a critical state of mind. No no No NO nO nO nOno..... etc.

Step 5: Go to sleep in a comfortable position with the expectation that the dream environment will not trick you, be very firm at this point.

Step 6: There is only a step six if you can fill it in with a lucid experience.

This has worked for me and i hope it can work for you 2. namaste.

To me this sounds like a step in the wrong direction. I myself like to accept my reality for what it is. In fact I don't really become lucid by questioning my reality, I become lucid because I Intent it. I don't know why, but I feel that leaving my dream the way it is is the right thing to do. If you mess with it, it's like messing up a beautiful painting just because you don't like it the way it is. I just like to explore and accept my reality. I'm only saying this because this is what comes to mind when reading your method. When you put the word "no" in your mind it basically means rejecting something. So if you are trying to lucid dream, by telling yourself "no" I think it might only stop lucid dreaming.

Wassup silver bullet thanx for stopping by and sharing your thoughts on this, & i do hear what your saying its just that in all my lucid experiences before this technique i would always have to question something to become lucid, something would be out of place. However in ap or obe i immediately become aware with no questioning or reality checks.

SilverBullet is probably right. No is a negative word so you're trying to put yourself in a negative place before going to sleep, technically. I think it has worked for you mainly because of a placebo effect. Essentially anything can work as long as you believe it will hard enough. Everyone is different so if this technique has been working for you, then good.

Also, montra means protection whereas mantra means words that create transformation. :P
