Thread: The taboo topic returns!!!

omg teh lewzers. how can you study dreams and not know about lucid dreaming. or at least be interested in it.

My sentiments exactly.
Paperdoll- How come your not gettting more votes for moderator?

That's silly. For a simple research paper on dreams, I discovered lds, so if you study them how could you NOT?????

I don't know. ;-;

Yeah, i think, as you said, the general public is not ready for it.
In a way, it could be 'used for the wrong purposes', and i dont think some people are ready to 'go deeper into the rabbit hole'...

i don't understand why its taboo? i've never heard anyone say that it was a bad thing to lucid dream.

*raises hand*
I have, some radical conservatives I know say its satanic, and that it goes along with Channeling and stuff.

haha then they are so far right i doubt that society as a whole would even care. its not taboo if one group of people denounces it, especially if that group isn't mainstream. ohh well, you can't please everyone. thanks for the info.

Haha Rtex, you made me laugh when you said that. I mean if some people really think lucid dreaming is evil they need to get thier heads out of thier asses. Anyways, since this is the only lucid dreaming forum on the internet and it is growing at this rate I think people are suddenly beginning to accept lucid dreaming. I have talked to many people online that had no idea what it was. They also had no idea you could control dreams. We need an article in yahoo.com oddly enough section. Anyone know someone who writes that stuff? I bet they would do a section on it. Anyways, if the word gets out (with this site) we will grow by thousands in a week.

1000sands of members a week aarhhhh, that would suck.
I like close communities and with 1000sands of members you can never keep up with anything, or anybody..you will be flushed >_<

Some people think its some kind of religious or cult activity...but i'm like NO! its a sort of hobby-at the beggining. (until you dig deeper and find some...interesting stuff )

...what, you mean this isnt a cult? aww crap...well i geuss ill be leaving then...

You couldn't leave dude, then who'd rule over hell?

satanic? That's just silly

Lucid dreaming? Satanic? The two don't exactly go together, if you ask me.

What exactly could make Lucid Dreaming satanic? Lucid dreaming dosen't exactly require some kind of magic cult worship of the devil with some sacrifice before you go to sleep to have one, does it?

It happens to everybody at some stage in their life, suddenly becoming aware of their dream and controlling it. They might not call it "lucid dreaming", though, even though that's what it really is.

What on earth suddenly made people think that?

To quote seeker:

satanic? That's just silly[/b]

Well think of the FIRST time you heard the word 'LUCID'...it sounds kinda creepy and cool to me, some people may interpret that word differently.

Also, when i talk to my girlfriend about it, she is interested, but not enough to try it, she likes 'dreaming' of me, or trying to, but she doesnt have the motivation to try it. Maybe if i make her read EWLD...

Well, I found the E-mail adresses of both the editor of the news paper and the writer off the article. And, in a nice manner, I simply asked them flat out -why people never dicuss lucid dreaming in main stream articles. I have Yet to get a reply.
There are Cultures elsware that are raised with the notion of lucid dreaming. I wish I have had my entire life with the pratice of lucid dreaming. Who Knows were I would be. A lot farther than I am now. Owell. If it were easy anyone could do it.

In the book, 'Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming', LaBerge states that lucid dreaming is actually easier than everyone thinks it really is. He proposes that there is some kind of 'mental block' and people set a higher standard or expectation than they can fulfill by thinking its harder than it really is.
