I came across this on a book I was reading. It's a mantra for remembering dreams. If you're having difficulty remebering dreams upon waking up, this is worth a try.

A mantra is a series of sounds, a word or words that have psychic effects. They have these effects depending upon the words or sounds, which are often based on the vowels A,E,I,O,U. Each vowel corresponds to a certain Chakra (which are the astral body's senses), and increases a certain faculty.

The mantra is RAOM GAOM. When you pronounce it, elongate the sound of each letter: RRRAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOMMMMMM GGAAAAAAAAOOOOOMMM.

Repeat this mentally over and over for a while, while still lying on your bed just as you have awaken, nd you'll notice bits and pieces of the dream coming. Don't force yourself. The day won't pass without you knowing at least the theme or the elements of your dream.

Tried this, and it helps. I guess by repeating the words that are supposed to help you with dream recall, you are 'subconciously' remembering your dreams (somehow)
