I am new to lucid dreaming, so pardon me if this isn't a good question. It's said that we can do anything in a lucid dream, for example, flying etc. So will it also be possible to read the mind of a person we know in real life during a lucid dream by dreaming about him/her?
I do not have any personal experience, but I can recommend Waggoner´s book Lucid dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self. You will find some pretty interesting and deep stuff.
I get the impression there may be some misinterpretation here; when it's said that we can do "anything" in a lucid dream, it's likely only meant in the sense of what actually takes place in the dream. Whatever spiritual beliefs one might have put aside, dreams ultimately happen inside you, they don't get out or spill out from you, and they don't necessarily provide you with correct answers, be you lucid or not.Quote:

In this way, it's possible you might come to understand someone else's thought patterns a bit better by dreaming about them.
Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful reply. I appreciate it very much:)
