      weird confusing question

      so i was thinking the other day about how you can morph and change gender in a ld, and i was wondering, would it be possible to turn into nothing? This may sound confusing but since your body is just a dream body, and its not real and there's no point in using it, so could you get rid of it and become just a floating conscious?

      It most certainly is. Often this happens to people unintentionally when they become lucid. Doing it intentionally would be doable.

      Keep in mind, if you were a floating conciousness you would still kind of have a drea body, but just a vaprous one. To truly become nothing but a conciousness you would have to be omnipresent within your dream, to have your concious everywhere at once within your subconcious creation.

      That would be a nice goal if you were shooting for it.

      Sure, haven't you ever had a third person dream? It's like watching a movie. No body in the story, but consciousness of the story going on.

      I think I may have a point-of-reference for this topic. Have you ever had a fly-on-the-wall dream? I've had many dreams that I could only view and not participate in. None of the dream characters would acknowledge me and nothing happened to me. It was, essentially, like being nothing while still being able to observe the dream. It can be controlled, I think. I haven't done this in several years but as a kid I used to turn the fly-on-the-wall thing on and off. Sometimes I would simply observe. At other times I would feel moved by what I was watching and suddenly become apart of the action.

      Intent is the currency of dreams. It's the link between thought/visualization and manifestation.

      What about Clear Light dreams from Tibetan Dream Yoga? The dreams where you have no sense of self or spatial relationship with your environment. Some would say you are not even dreaming anymore, just existing in the empty space of a total loss of ego. Something like this:

      I've been reading up on lucid dream yoga. Sounds great since I'm actually working on lucid dreaming and looking for an interesting workout.

      Nope. It's common. As you get better at being lucid you should be able to shift into first person at will.

      That's actually not so weird, if you do a search for "Third Person" and memories or something along that line, there are a lot of threads about people discussing this 3rd-person memory

      Generally all my Lucids are first person but my non-lucids are often 3rd person. Sometimes the drema will be in first person but I recall it in 3rd.

      I've had one 3rd person lucid. It was one of my earliest ones, and it was pretty neat. I was able to float around anywhere in space, as well as stop and reverse time (in the rewind sense, not physics sense). For some reason I felt like a little Buddha floating around. I'm not Buddhist at all, so that's kinda weird...

      what if you realize you are dreamin, and you attempt to shift into first person but you can't. you can do anything else, but you can't do that.

      It should be very easy. Just look down at your feet, and then you'll have a body.
