Thread: Those experienced with persistent realms

This depends on your definition of lucid. If you use the standard definition of being aware that a dream is a dream, then I’m never not lucid. If by lucid you mean something stronger, then no, for me it isn’t necessary to be lucid, suggesting to myself that I want to go to the persistent realm should be enough, assuming I’m sufficiently interested to be motivated to actually go. None of my persistent realms are intentionally created though. I dream about a place, and form a memory of it, then I dream about the same place again, sometimes years later. Some people might interpret these places as ‘past lives’ or ‘parallel worlds’, because they seem as real as anything else, but I don’t make those assumptions, and typically doubt them when other people make them.

does time start at the time you left the dream (like a videogame check point) or if ,for example you dont go back to the realm in 7 days, then 7 days have passed within the (realms) time-line?

You do not have to be lucid
