A new world within lucid dreaming (involving shared dreaming)

I don't really believe in shared dreaming, but I'd like to interject that if you wanted to create your own dream world that lasted as long as you wanted, you could try time dilation; it's a subject I'm currently waiting to test in my next lucid dream. That way, you could definitely start from scratch and create a universe with a big bang in which you could play the role of God. It wouldn't be too hard, assuming you could successfully dilate dream-time enough.

Edit: As for the other Gods, you could really just create them as Conscientious Dream Characters.

shared dreaming is real

That is just one of the themes that we can play with, the heaven and hell theme. I find the stories of the Gods and demigods in the hindu mythology very interesting and we can borrow some of those to play out in our dreams.

We dont necessarily have to stay in them forever. But the crucial point of continuing from where we left the night before and so on can make it so we return to our world at night and this world during the day. It is almost like the night is our other world that we have not yet mastered.

This is how I would go about it. We first work on our shared dreaming skills, once we are all in a shared dream. We turn the dream pitch black and start from "scratch".

We assign a huge chunk of round, ball of space to each of us, a planet. We each get to choose what that planet looks like and where it should be aligned with the others, this is our "home". Then each of us individually goes to each of our planet and starts decorating it with grass, trees, flowers, people, laws, themes. Thats it, then we visit each other, play in each others themes, try to conquer other planets, etc. possibilities are endless.

Same as a few gods getting together and building a world.

Any ideas as to what we can build or do?

This looks cool :D

Imagine that this planet where we are living is also a creation of a group of lucid dreamers or maybe on dreamer's world..

and they created the whole universe and they are still expanding it with new planets and stuff and they forgot that they created the earth where we live

I know this isn't his exact words, but I remember MoSH (Man of Shred) saying that don't believe in shared dreaming and don't disbelieve in it. Just have fun and see what happens.

Pffft... real?
Nothing is real.
Not even reality.
But on serious note, it's possible to be forever dreaming without needing food, but that mean overclocking your brain to almost terminal velocity, and you might die of shock even before you could dream for 2 secs in real life.
But why do we need someone to dream forever? All we just need is to go on shifts.
For people who said that shared dreaming isn't real, get the facts right.
You CAN share your dream scientifically by just simply writing a story about the current dream situation, so people who read it will know the state of your dream, and then we can share dreams while it's still in our heads.
But for dream walking/night stalking way, you can't disprove them, so why don't you simply enjoy the illusion of going in others' dream and stop being so skeptic?

Because enjoying the illusion and posting about it as if it were real will only help hurt newbies who are eager to try this kind of thing? Pretty simple.

Well, I think creating a dream universe, where you don't need to stabilize etc. is a great thing. (btw. I also believe in Shared Dreaming).. but imagine: time dilation would be possible and you stayed in your own lucid universe for 10 years and you were free, you were god.. and then suddenly you awake in the waking world.. I think it would be such a shock for you to be again in this world, where you can't do what you want :P Though I thing it's a great thing to create a dream universe without time dilation and go there every night for the 8 hours of sleep.. without having to do stabilisation and all that stuff... there are things you can't have in a dream I think, cause it's "just a dream".. for me this would be fun and helpful for studying, practicing, going deep into my subconscious, but it could never replace my waking life . so I think waking life and dream life.. both is great :)

i'm more interesting on the fact about being living in a dream without food lol

we are all sharing and we are all NOT sharing!!! in the ilusion we are sharing, but there are no we! hence no one to share with....... how deep down the rabbit hole are u willing to go? :)

I think u guys r getting really carried away with this why would one want to stay in dream world when he/she has a perfectly good life already dnt waste life. YYou only get 1

Is it though? If you had shared dreaming and time dilation than that would be your 'real life' and this life could be the secondary one to sustain the main one.
