Thread: Why don't you hear about meditators accidentally WILDing?

I think it depends on your intention. When you meditate you are trying to discard those thoughts and images and bring your mind back to thinking about nothing, or your mantra, loving-kindness, whatever. So for example, often when I meditate I will notice sounds or odd sensations but I try to ignore them. When you are WILDing I suppose that you would be intending to dream, and therefore the meditation would take that path since you'd be encouraging the dream visions.

I want to have a WILD... They seem so trippy. Haha astral projection is a crazy idea too. I wanna try it.

Does this also say something about Lucid Dreams? Can you reach some sort of enlightenment through LD's like you can with meditating? Hm

spiritual practices (including meditation) are just about always easier and more effective in a dream, because in that state you have a lot of 'flexibility of mind.'

How do you go about meditating in a dream? If I ever try it my dream ends. I guess I could do walking meditation with eyes open, but to sit and close the eyes would certainly make my dream end.

Damn you people...! Astral projection has never been scientifically prooved! So stop looking at it as a possibility! We have a paranormal related stuff forum here, use that.

Just take it as a slightly different experience to usual LDing and quit whinging please.




And it's "proved". "Proven" would be more suitable though.

But he has a point. One is a scientifically proven state that we've almost all experienced here on this forum. The other is, frankly, more about interpretation.
