I posted this before ...

... but I haven't been able to find it again. It was an idea I had (which other may also have had) about a method of attaining lucidity, but only if you have done something very specific in a lucid dream before ...

I called it SWIL (Switch Wild Induced Lucid (bad name, I know, but I will come up with a better one if it works :P )), and it - in essence - was setting a mental switch well in a lucid dream, and then using that switch to automatically enter into a lucid dream.

any takers and testers?

I will take and test what do you need me to do?

From my understanding, you would have to find a way of telling your subconuse that you will dream a lucid dream when you recieve a sertain stimulas. One way would be to form a computer infront of you, and use that to "modify the program". Or, if your DC's are helpful enough, ask one of them how to do it. Another way would be to somin your subcon to you and ask him/her.

So you are saying that while in a dream ask a DC, Summon your Subconscious, Or Make A Computer in front of you and ask/modify it so that whenever something happens you will become Lucid?

... sounds pretty weird, doesn't it? Thats the long and short of it, though.

The problem is this lucidity technique requires lucidity.
Quite the little contradiction eh?

what about using an exturnal stumulant?

Sounds good Keeper I will give it a try tonight and keep you updated.

Ive thought of similar things in the past. I used to study some NLP, dont know if you've ever heard of an 'NLP anchor'? if not its:

I was wondering if the concious dream state could some how be anchored, i sadly never got around to testing it but maybe NLP could help you refine the technique or something :)

Hope its useful and nice idea.

thanks guys :)

Imran: Well, it may sound like one, but think off it: After one DILD, WILD or MILD, you can automaticly enter into a dream. We might even call this LILD (lucid induced Ludic dream :P)

Free: I supose it could be anything you can think off, from a thought to a picture.

Brandon: Cool! Let me know how it goes :)

RooJ: Sounds pretty similer ... nice!

Alright I remembered about this a little later in my LD when I would of liked to so I wasn't able to summon anything dream was fading, but I asked a DC to remind me before it ended.

It reminded of a scene from a movie where a guy is falling from heaven and all you see is the sillouete of a person with the sun behind them as you are falling further away. I don't think this was a good attempt so I will try again tonight.

Anyone else?
