lucid

Once in fifth grade, I had a dream that my mom drove me to the mall. she then got out of the car and left me there.

Suddenly I was in the front seat of the car, and it started driving itself.

There was a lot of blue glass skateboard ramps I drove off, and one in particular was super high. Mid jump, When I looked down, I saw my friend Lily getting off of a bus, looking up at the car and dropping her backpack. She screamed at me to get down, and the car started to fall.

It crashed into someone's garage that I'd never seen before and Lily ran up to me.

"SID NO! YOU CRASHED MY DAD'S CAR!"

"I'm sorry Lily, it was driving itse-"

and I woke up. The next day at school, Lilly looked really tired, and I asked her why. She said she had a dream that she was on a bus and I was in her dad's car, and I crashed her dad's car into her house.

She described the car, that fit the car I was in perfectly. She described the house, that also was perfect.


I wasn't even that good of friends with lily at the time, and I'm not at all friends with her now.


I did some research, and apparently Buddhist monks who train for decades can do something similar to that, and they use it for religious reasons. Or at least used to, I'm not sure.

I've done it three times, two by accident and one on purpose. They were:

1. The one involving Lilly that I just told you about (accidental)

2. This one involving some really bad shooter videogame with my friend Joseph, but he kinda was only connected with my mind for about 3 seconds before it stopped and he went away (Accidental)

3. This one time in middle school when I was edgy and decided to try and give some kid who lived on my street a nightmare. It kind of worked, I made him have a nightmare about a plane crashing with him in it, but then he went away and it turned into a nightmare for me with some weird second reality. (On purpose)



That's what made me originally decide to try to become Buddhist in fifth grade, but it's been many years since I gave up on that. Nightmares to ALL MY ENEMIES!

To be honest, the reason I haven't done it more is because it takes so long to actually do, it's incredibly difficult, and not that effective. Some people I gave nightmares to don't fully remember the nightmares once they wake up, only remembering fragments of the dream.

I sound totally insane, but I swear I'm not delusional. I ask the people about their dreams the next day, without giving a prompt.


This is (at least kind of) How I did it purposefully:

1: Lie down and wait a while to induce sleep paralysis, go into a dream.

2. Focus on the person. Their name, personality, location, looks, ect.

3. Imagine yourself watching them sleep, then slipping inside their mind. (I sound insane, I swear I'm not. I've been to a doctor for my depression, they did a psychiatric analysis, I'm not psychotic I promise.)

4. QUICKLY, design the setting for the nightmare and put them into it as well as yourself. Watch them, DO NOT TAKE YOUR EYES OFF THEM, and have DC's interact with them. If you look away they're going to be able to escape.

5. This is only effective if they don't lucid dream. If they can control their dreams they're gonna wake themselves up pretty fast.

For some reason Lucid dreaming has become ridiculously easy for me. I just lay down, stop moving, wait for the sleep switch that renders your body immobile, and then start dreaming.

It's getting pretty damn cool, actually.
