I'd say that I see lucid dreaming as an absolute prerequisite for the practice of dream yoga and I am using both for spiritual improvement rather than recreational purposes. There's a pertinent passage in one of the books I am reading. This is a translation from an 11th century text on the uses of Dream Yoga on the path toward spiritual enlightenment: "The dream yoga begins with cultivating the ability to retain dreams, which means the ability to recognize the dream as a dream while dreaming, without disturbing the flow of content of the experience." |
