Oh yea, I dont know how I forgot to post this earlier. I had a dream a week or two ago with someone named shiva sivason in my dream. I found this very interesting. Actually, just went back and read the entry. Not much detail but it said I was shiva sivason. |

Hey Sivason, you have no idea how much I have looked forward to a dream yoga class! |

Any questions about lucid dreaming? Drop me a PM here!

I'm in. My name is Anya. I'm 32, never used mantras and want to know how to use them. I ve downloaded The Book of dream yoga in russian and will read it, i hope. In fact, i don't know what i want in the end, but i need some discipline not to give up exersices, really)) |

Nice. You are well prepared. I have not had any time to spend with the book yet, but that all sounds a lot like the stuff I was taught. My teacher (the first real Human teacher) was no longer a Buddhist, he was trained as a Kundalini Master and had converted to Shintoism. He trained me in Kundalini for about five years, and "Dream Work" was part of that training. Most of my knowledge has come from other more original sources. I am curious to see how the Buddhist stuff compares, I imagine my Kundalini master may have first learned it when he was a Buddhist. |

Can I still join? I don't know if i can be very diligent though because I got some stuff going on at work but I'll do my best. |

Thank you, sivason, for offering a course which allows the individuals to follow their own paths but with a goal in sight. The goal being self knowledge and the ability to express that knowledge. |
|
Very interested in this. |

Yo! Names Terrin from NY 25. I've read some things about dream yoga and the tibetan monks and I'm really intrigued. If there is anything that will help me to lucid dream daily I have the feeling this is it. If I am not mistaken the dream yogis act as if their waking life is a dream as well as their sleeping life? I think that is an awesome idea and technique but I just can't see how to put it into practice lol I don't really believe in synchronicity but I'm definitely open minded and I wouldn't be surprised if I were "lead" here. I've been listening to anythony de'mello and the basis of his teachings is AWARENESS. Which is basically what the yogis practiced correct? Also I see that someone's name here is "Herman Hesse" (Again with the synchronicity or coincidence?) I've recently had the pleasure of reading siddhartha by herman hesse and it is a beautiful book! Yeah I'm so looking forward to this class! Thank you. |

Dreams are real while they last -- can we say more of life? ~Havelock Ellis
Dreams are illustrations... from the book your soul is writing about you. ~Marsha Norman
Dreams are more real than reality itself, they're closer to the self. ~ Gao Xingjian
A truely good book, everyone should read it. Awareness is such a key part of it that it can not be overlooked. We who are far enough into Dream Yoga do not just act as if waking life is a dream. We actually 'know' that it is. It is becoming lucid in waking life. Any debate on if this could be a dream, or if it is fair for me to claim to 'know it' will have to wait for a select topic lesson. But, for now, enjoy Basic skills lesson 1. It is all about awareness. |

Oh wow! You're about the 15-16th person I've come across that has mentioned that Siddartha book in just the past year. I got it on my iPad a year ago and have yet to really get into it. |

Hello! I hope I'm not too late to join you all My name is Felicity, I'm 15, and I've lived my life in England. I'm bad at explaining things and I hardly know why myself but I really would love to join this course I am starting to have regular lucids, and I love maths. |

Looks like I've missed alot but I'd love to join your course Sivason! |

There are no books I am asking anyone to read. I am reviewing 1 book. Just look at the sticky thread for the info. I am just reviewing it because about a dozen members have read it. So that is up to you. Just start at lesson 1 and create a workbook as soon as you have anything to post. |

I am a 16 year old from Saint Augustine, Florida. I am a night owl. When school's out (I've recently graduated) I tend to read because night is the time when I feel a desire to learn and to do things. I do a lot of reading on metaphysical topics. I don't know what I consider myself. I used to consider myself atheist, then agnostic, then agnostic with Buddhist tendencies. I experimented with Wicca for a while but it seemed really contrived. I don't believe much in spells or anything that would come across as magic (talking to the dead, telepathy, sharing dreams) though I consider myself an open-minded skeptic. I do believe in the universe being made up of sacred energies, but only to a degree. |

Hi Sivason, |
|
I also found this a bit late, but I would like to give it go. I'll start with lesson 1, so I'll just be behind for a while. |
|
Hello, it appears I'm not the only late starter here! |
