My Meditative Mind State [How It Produces LD's]

**spiritofthewolf** · 12-12-2009 08:59 AM

Hey Folks,

I thought it might be a good idea to sort of explain my meditative mind state, and how it helps me produce LD's (or remember more dreams)...

Some people may think for you to meditate that you have to sit quietly with your legs crossed and relax... That really isn't the case at all...

If you think about it, every single person meditates even if they don't notice it.. It's called Day Dreaming...

I have stated many times before that I am a huge day dreamer.. I sometimes will be driving home in the car, and be so deep in thought, that when I come to, I sometimes ask myself "How did I get to this point without getting into an accident?"

It's quite simple... My subconscious mind...

Let me put it into perspective...

Half the time I am driving, I am driving a route I take every single day.. Usually going to work at night.. It's boring, not a lot going on, so I just drift off into day dreaming, letting my conscious mind relax...

All the while (even though my conscious mind is busy thinking) my subconscious mind (knows the route i am going) and without noticing it, it automatically goes in that direction...

Like auto pilot on a plane... When the pilot wants to take a break (conscious mind) auto pilot (subconscious mind) kicks in and takes over.....

Now how does this all add up into Lucid Dreaming?

Well put it to the test...

First, take something you think about a lot, more then anything else.. It can be anything.. (a movie, game, girlfriend/boyfriend..) and keep that in the front of your mind through out the day.....

When you are about to go to bed, please take a second to go to the bathroom, even if you do not have to, try... The reason being is, so that when you wake up from sleep in the middle of the night (from a dream, or no dream) you can just stay relaxed in your bed...

While laying there in bed, think of the one thing that you constantly think about more then anything else.. Don't try and tell yourself "This is what I want to dream about.." Just lay there and day dream about it... Right there you are putting yourself into a meditative mind state (each time you day dream)

When I day dream, I can sometimes sit there and see what I am day dreaming with my eyes open.. It's hard to explain, it almost looks like a very very light transparent "Movie".. What I see is exactly what I am thinking about inside my head...

Why I am asking you all to take the one thing you think about the most, and sit and day dream about it is, because if all plays out well.. You will eventually dream about it more..... It would make sense that the one thing you day dream about the most through out the day, would be inside your dreams... The only difference between the two is, that most of time you are awake day DREAMING, and not fully asleep DREAMING....

The trick is to get your day DREAMS to be reflected inside your DREAMS, to where you might encounter the one thing you think about most while awake...

I don't know if makes sense to anybody or not, or how I am even going to end this article.. I am just trying to explain the best way possible, my everyday thoughts, and how I try to accumulate then into my dreams...

For Instance.. I recently posted a thread talking about my best friend (who is female), and who I am just head over heels in love with.. She in the 1 person I DAY DREAM about the most.. The night prior to that post, I ended up having 5 dreams... Every dream either had her in it, or was about her in some way... Why? Because she is constantly on my mind....

It's so strange explaining things like this, because I don't want people to think that I am "Gifted" or "Special"; I am not... I am just like every one here at dreamviews.. I just have noticed the smallest "Needle in the hay stack" things, that help out when it comes to Lucid Dreaming... And what I still can't figure out is, everything to me is like second nature.. It just happens... Why? I don't know..

Part of the reason (or maybe most) is because I am such a big day dreamer.. I let my mind take off, and I think up new ways to improve my own minds capabilities (if you want to call it that) and it gets imprinted into my mind....

The bottom line is..We are all still constantly dreaming.. It don't matter if we are dead asleep, or wide awake.. Take the things of our DAY DREAMS, and attempt to connect it with our sleeping DREAMS....

Like a battery.. Positive (day dreams) and Negative (sleeping dreams).. If you can find a way to connect them together.. You have a greater chance of producing Energy (Lucid Dreams)

Positive (Day Dreams) + Negative (Sleeping Dreams) = Energy (Lucid)

I hope this helps some of you, and I hope it makes sense.. If you have any questions, or are left confused and want to know more, please PM me and I will gladly respond...

Thank You

Wow, this is a really cool way to do it. I actually daydream about my dreams and think about them all day. I really do think it helps me get lucid, because I'm always thinking about dreaming, wondering if I'm dreaming now, or wondering about what I'd do if I was dreaming.

When I was a kid I would daydream about flying around shooting fireballs. I would spend about a half hour every night before bed telling myself I would have a lucid dream, and fly around shooting fireballs. It took a while, but eventually it started to take affect, and now I can pretty much tell myself to remember to lucid dream as I'm going to bed and I will have a lucid dream.

That is awesome! All it takes is a little bit of practice and patience, and your sure to get some sort of results from it.. Thank you for taking the time to read!

Wow spirit! I can relate. I often...snap to and wonder where on earth I was during a big fat day dream. I love day dreams, and have quite a lot of them being imaginitive kind of person that I am.

SO glad that my mind isn't messed up. I should really try this!
