Thread: What's the deepest dream you've had?

Examples of deep can be accessing forgotten memories, talking to your subconscious, realizations about the universe, apparent crossings into the paranormal, etc...

Some of the deepest dreams I've had were dreams in which a lot of emotions were involved (love). One dream, where I became lucid and thought to myself :"what do these dreams really mean?" and my "subconscious mind" replied with a picture, and on this picture were 20 explanations/reasons for the meaning behind the dreams. I can't remember every reason but they were short and accurate, here's some that I can remember: "This situation is Ironic to you.", "This is a reflection of your emotions.","This is an event in a parallel universe","This is an emotional lesson.", "This is a past life memory", "This is a fabrication of your projection.", and there were more, but I couldn't remember them all after waking up. Another interesting insight I figured out, which is sort of confusing was when I lucid dreamed and attempted to talk realistically to dream characters. What happened was I would reach out to dream characters, and the one's that were my own projection would sort of "ignore" my questions, or answer them indirectly and strangely, sort of like talking to myself. However some dream characters seemed to get suspicious of my lucidity, as if it were something profoundly bad. Then as I would ask these "certain" characters deep things about dreams and reach out to them like spirit guides, they would dissolve/transform into their actual form, which was a scary evil monster type thing in most cases (with these external entities) compared to my own projections which never changed despite my questions. Like in the movie matrix, when they became aware of my lucidity they would turn into "mr Anderson" in the way that he would in the movie, and start projecting this intense emission of fear/scare emotions onto me, which would freeze me and cause me to wake up. It's like your projections in dreams give a good hiding place to these "mr anderson" entities which seem to be the cause of every fear based dream. Another creepy example of this was when I was having a scary dream and went to a party, lots of projections/programs that were clueless of my lucidity, and then some random woman who was reading a book to me as I walked in, her voice suddenly changed into that extremely scary multi octave voice you'd hear in rap songs. It seems to me that these entities don't appreciate people becoming lucid, and I realized after all of this, and lucid dreams in general that lucid dreams are an interwoven fabrication made up of various arsenals of memories (events which you actually experienced) in other lives or this one, and when you lucid dream you're simply bringing attention to the memories which correspond to your emotional desires at the time.

I have seen God like entities on a very few occasions. It always includes overwhelming awe and emotion.

Did you ever try to mess with/manipulate them, or did it feel like you couldn't?

NO! They were truly GOD like. I could not move or speak.

Early on when I had only about 8 years of lucid dream training i was entering every lucid and calling out in a voice that reverbirated the dreamworld like the sound AUM. I would call out SIVA, SIVA, SIVA with the intent and feeling of both a prayer and a plea. I had been feeling something that seemed to be entities following me (not of the dream) but they stayed just at my periphery, for about a year. I went to a local park and went out into the field and practiced skills. I was very devoted and trained my abilities in every dream. I practiced leaping onto the top of a swing set and stopping dead on top of it. I suddenlly got a feeling that even this was screwing around and I needed to be more serious.

I jumped down and faced off across the valley and called out SIVA over and over and shook the dream world with the power of my reverbirating mantra. Suddenly I was yanked off the ground by an unseen force and pulled bodily and roughly forward through the air at high speed. It pulled me along and I saw a narrow canyon with a stream in it that I was being drug just feet over. I stretched out my feet and touched the water. It was more real than anything before and water flew up and was very life like. I was rushing towards the end of the valley and could see that the stream was issuing from a small cave at the very end. I was drug into the cave by this force and through a tunnel.

I was dropped on my knees in a very small cave, to small to stand in. It felt very really and I was scared, but did not want to wake myself. Was this something magical and other worldly/ I sure had been yelling SIVA into the void for about a year, better not wake now, no matter how terrifying this was. I looked around and there was a small alter in front of me along a wall. I heard a voice, "You must not destroy anything in my wolrd. Now choose!" I looked down and the alter now had about 6 items on it. They were common items that would be on an alter. There were matches and incense, a mango, and a bowl and a few other items.

I felt like this was a test and I needed to do something. I figured the first thing that one would do is light the incense. But no, that would destroy the incense and the match, what else could I do? I looked at the mango and wondered if I should bite into it. No, same problem. Then I thought about the mango having a seed! One of the skills I had practiced was causing trees to sprout out of things like skittles. I focused and caused the mango seed to start sprouting into a sapling right there on the alter.

The back wall lit up and the cracks in the wall started rearranging into a face. The face started talking in a powerful voice. It said, "I am Horus! You have drawn the attention of those with power. Why have you come here?"

Then I did perhaps the most arragent and odd thing I could imagine, I suddenly decided that I was not going to speak with Horus until I tried calling out to SIVA now that I was someplace otherworldly. I turned from Horus and faced the back cave wall. I called out SIVA three times in the same mantra like reveribrating way, as loud and strong as I could.

Suddenly everything changed, but it was an emotional change. Little changed physically, but I was overwhelmed with awe. I was unable to speak or move and I as terrified and also filled with other intense emotions, in a way beyaond explaining. The back wall turned into black obsidion and a green light shown behind it. The light moved like a flame, but was inside the blackness.

A voice of ultimate authority and power boomed out, "I am SIVA! The gates have been opened to you! For now, leave this place!" I was suddenly pulled backward out of the cave and down the canyon. I was slammed back into my body and sprung awake with my heart racing and tingling with adrenalin.

It was very soon after that that the things following me started to reveal themselves and eventually one of them became my first real dream guide. Eventually after years of training I was taken to the astral and allowed access to a wondeful city. I have been going there for about 15 years now.

Sounds crazy? Some of you will not be able to believe this stuff about dream guides and ghoing to the astral. However, for those who can believe, if you want this, it is attainable with dedication and time.



I wil try to post another one in a few days (I am sneaking time at work, and need to get back to my job )

thank you so much!!! that was wonderful.

i don't see why anyone wouldn't believe such things possible. even someone who was a total stubborn atheist who believed in nothing but concrete science couldn't deny that anything is possible in the dream world!

i am truly envious of your abilities!!!

Really interesting. Though how can you ever know it's an actual other place you go to, and not just your subconscious tricking you through your schema of astral projection/your beliefs?

Once I asked to feel unconditional love. First, my vision turned green and I felt vibrations. Then I was floating above my body with a silver cord linking me. As I went up and up and up towards outer space, I started merging with everything. My heart got fuller and fuller and fuller till almost bursting. I remember saying "Okay, that's enough! I still have things to do as a human." I was gently lowered. Vibrations and vision turned green again.

Sounds like an OBE, the silver chord being the "life line" or "astral chord" which binds you to your physical body. The merging into everything is something i've experienced before, it's almost like love is the acceptance/understanding/non resistance of everything in existence, and when you allow it to happen you feel this love/connection to everything like you become a wave in the ocean.

I spent some time at the bottom of the Marianus Trench once; that was pretty deep.

Seriously, I think my deepest moments occured in transcendental dreams, which are almost literally impossible to describe, but I did do a thread on dreams of transcendence a long while back where I tried to describe a couple in post #40. You might enjoy the thread in general as well, if you're interested in this stuff.

It wasn't all universal, but I think the deepest moment in one of my dreams was when I dreamed I had just had a baby. My parents were so supportive (in my dream I am pretty sure I was still in highschool) and nonjudgemental, but I hadn't been able to breastfeed the baby yet. It just never seemed to work out. I had just gotten home from the hospital and took the baby back to my room for a nap, and tried to feed it, and boom. My whole universe was in that one moment. It's hard to describe with words how I felt when the baby started suckling for the first time. But it was a very deep moment for me, and when I woke up it actually almost broke my heart that there wasn't a baby in my arms...

Maybe it was hormones, but still.

Haha yea sounds like hormones... I think a man's equivalent would be a sex dream. Sometimes I will masturbate before sleep so I don't have hormones interfering with my dreams... but for guys it doesn't take that long for them to kick in again so some night it might be moot ha... but I'd much rather have an OBE type dream feeling that freedom and love than some hormonal primitive human dream where I angry or horny... but there is no denying that those can feel very powerful too. The comedown from those crazy OBE's can be absolutely brutal though... the hormonal don't seem to do that... at least not in my experience. Those OBE's might actually be chemical based too... fueled by massive amounts of dopamine/seratonin.

That being said, I have never had an OBE dream that I can recall so I don't really know. I have had OBE type moments though where I am on cloud 9 only to crash back down to Earth and into a depression. It's like your body doesn't want you connect with everything... it wants you to be disconnected and focus on those primitive desires. The most intense though from memory was feeling an intense fear from a nightmarish demon like figure that I discovered in a dark room behind a cracked door... it charged me and slashed me i too felt an searing pain like Djaxup for a few moments after I awoke. Not the kind of intense dreams I want... but powerful nonetheless.

^^ That's pretty deep!

meeting my (dead iwl) dad in a LD the first time was pretty intense. I was crying like a baby and could not stop hugging him and thanking him... I guess I have not yet really come to terms with his passing.
I've seen him in one early LD sleeping, but I could'nt remember that he was dead iwl. In the dream mentioned above I knew he was dead, and the feelings where really overwhelming.
I guess it's not just me whose feelings get, like, quadrupled in dreams.

I've had one nightmare in my youth that really was deep in a strange sense. I can remember most of it crystal clear still. At the end of the dream a truck squished me and I woke up so frightened and still had a searing pain in the side that the truck hit me in the dream. The pain ebbed away in a few minutes, but that was truly frightening shit. I guess the hit in the dream was just a result of me having the pain iwl or something like that. But this combination of dying in a nightmare and waking up in pain at the exact same location that you just got hit in the dream... that was not cool.

^^ I had a similar dream where my nemesis shot me in the side and I woke up like I would have from a LD (ws non-lucid though) and had an aching pain where I was shot for the next 5 minutes. Scary stuff. Also my dreams are generally very emotional, much more so than IWL
I haven't had too many 'deep' dreams yet, but I did have one dream in which someone had a giant horn sticking out of his head from some growth, and what may have been a dream guide told him/me that if things are easy then they aren't worth doing. My first lucid dream also was pretty deep in the sense that I walked through a door into this infinitely expanding white emptiness, which I took to be sort of like my sub/consciousness, idk if that's accurate though hehe. Also my comprehension of the power I actually had over my dreams was pretty awe inspiring.

Yeah the first true "awakening" inside a dream was also pretty special a combination of shock/joy and an utter feeling of accomplishment and wonder. The feeling lastet for the entire day after the dream.

i once had a dream that i was at a blockbuster with a couple of my crew. we were attacked and i fought off the enemies while my two guys hid, disguised in a corner. i walked up to them after it was over and said "oh here's tweedle dee and tweedle dum!"

i walked out without them, walked to the dock on the beach and road my jet ski across the bay to my house. inside i said hi to my wife and walked to the work out room and started doing pull ups. my son walked up and said "what are you doing daddy?" i said "pull ups son."

the next morning i was speaking to my boss on a roof top. he was explaining his ascension to his current position and metaphorically comparing it with the billowing of some sheets in the wind that were drying on a line nearby.

then i woke up.




















why is this so deep?

i do not have a "crew".

i've never been to a blockbuster by the bay.

i do not live anywhere near a bay.

i do not own a jet ski.

i do not own a house.

i do not have a wife.

i do not have a son.

i do not do pull ups.

i do not have the boss or job as in the dream.

i was not me.

i was living someone elses life with their memories, thoughts, family and actions.

weird.

I once had a sleep paralysis dream I was in my bed couldn't move I wondered if it's sleep paralysis then I told myself some reasons and made myself believe its not SP.A person came next to me I couldnt see his face his whole body was black he had no eyes or face.I asked him what does it mean he didn't answer I just wanted one word and a letter appeared on the wall first letter was K he told me you're afraid(in my language afraid=korku so the first letter is K) next letter would come 4 hours later.I slept again and woke up to same dream again and again the same dream.When I finally woke up I felt extremely wierd.

My deepest lucid was when I truly though I was trapped in a lucid dream and had died in real life while sleeping. It started as a sort of run of the mill, wobbly lucid, but as I continued it got stronger and stronger and stronger and more and more clear until it was almost indistiguishable from waking life. I was in a beautiful gated community whose houses were vibrantly red clay and every accessory from countertops to fridges was brand new. I opened the door to find two gentlemen returning from a round of golf, chatting happily. I waved and they stopped briefly to wave back, then continued talking. I continued outside and saw that the community was nestled a on a cliff right at the edge of the ocean; there were flowers everywhere in flower boxes and community gardens, and everything was just SO happy and bright. I was on a loop or a cul de sac, and in the middle of the loop was a beautiful garden and a sign that read "Eternal Community". As an RC check I looked away, scrambled it in my mind, and looked back. "Eternal Gardens." Now that spooked me.

I decided I was getting nervous and chose to wake myself up. My eyes pop open and I stand up from my bed. I am in a red clay house with beautiful furnishings. I walk outside to see two gentlemen returning from a round of golf. I don't wave this time and they continue on. This happens six more times. Eventually I walk to the garden in the middle of the cul de sac and pick a flower, slowly realizing I have died and this is heaven or some form of afterlife. I look at the flower I picked and I can see a tiny universe contained in its bud. I stare intently and demand that I am returned home. I zoom through the flower, into the universe within, into our galaxy, solar system, and eventually into my house and sleeping body. I struggle for what feels like forever to awaken myself out of sleep paralysis. My girlfriend is screaming and the walls are melting. I demand to wake up and eventually I sit bolt upright in my real bed with a gasp.

That dream... changed me.

That's awesome. I love it.

I suppose you never can. If one chooses to be an atheist or require physical proof, then these things will be unattainable. However, in my case these things have repeated in such clear ways that I have no doubt. I have sat completely lucid and talked with these entities for long periods. I have talked with the same recurrent DCs in literally hundreds of dreams. Everything was revealed slowly over the years with no inconsistencies. It will be unconvincing to one who chooses to doubt, when I say that the quality of these dreams is so different than normal experience that I can not doubt for a moment.

with your experience lucid dreaming while all of these things are happening, what would you tell yourself if you could go back to the years when you first started/were a beginning attempting to keep dreams lucid/not awake?
I find it's tough to stay lucid (for me) too long when a lot is going on, so I'm wondering if you have any tips for beginners in general.
