Thread: BS

I understand what you mean.

I know some people like that. I am trying to educate them though. So far when I suggest they check out this place, they just kind of smile and nod.

whenever i try to tell someone about lucid dreaming, they dont really seem to care, so i never really talk about it anymore

Oh Hell yah I've been there. And you know what that crap urks me sooo much. They swear they've done it and don't have the slightest idea what Lucid Dreaming is. I Know exactly what you mean...

Well, they might of done it, even though they didn't know what it was. Until you said it. And because all they've done is been aware they're dreaming, they haven't actually tried to control the dream- they didn't think they could.

Yeah, that's very likely. I have a friend who was just like that, she'd been naturally aware of the fact she was dreaming quite frequently all her life but she just never thought to control the dream til I told her about lucid dreaming. She'd used it to escape scary situations etc. but she'd never know it could be matrix-esque.

Yeah, and then they won't let you explain it...

There are different levels of lucidity. And I have had some dreams where in my dream I was in control. But that was just part of the dream. It was not in the same madder of a lucid dream. But when you are lucid (at least how I feel) your concious of your actions and thoughts just as you would be if you were awake, So how could one not realize there is some form of control available?

I totally hear ya...
Sure, perhaps there's some around that dont know about LD'ing and still do it, and you might talk to them about it but most people just say stuff like that because they dont have a clue what the hell it is but just say 'yeah, me too' to fit in or something or they think that regular dreaming is LD'ing.
