This is a concept I have envisioned since the very first time I heard about lucid dreaming years ago. As I have not had an LD, opportunities have not yet arisen for me to give my theory any field testing. It is my hope that, when I do master lucid dreaming, I can get a group of people together to experiment with a concept I call, "The Subconscious Key."

Inception brought me to these forums last year, as it did many others, but one thing in particular struck me about the movie: each dreamer created a safe place, a vault, and their subconscious automatically filled it with vital or secret information.

I believe in a similar idea, albeit without corporate espionage or secret information. It is said that the brain can store anywhere between one and ten terabytes, each of those holding the capacity of a large library. It has been said that the brain never forgets, it stores every sensory input, but we can only access relatively immediate or important events.

If I was to enter a lucid dream and create some place where knowledge is stored, such as the library I frequented with my grandmother when I was younger, could I effectively tap into my subconscious, viewing repressed or forgotten memories? Could I see my eighth birthday party again, or see where I left that book last month? Would a place of knowledge such as a library even be necessary, or could I just ask a passing DC, or my DG?

Thoughts, feedback, and comments would be appreciated. If you are an experienced LDer, try this one tonight.
