      Advancedld.com is not up and hasn't been for about 6 months now.

      ZenVortex, as a natural lucid dreamer as you would call it, I have only ever known fuel in the tank.
      Though I know people that have gone from 'no fuel' to frequent 'natural' lucidity, just through changing underlying daily perspectives, listening to "lectures on how easy it is".
      I have not read a single tutorial on here save one on Astral Projection, yet maintain a lucid state through dreams at will.

      I know nothing of Neuroscience nor lucidity supplements, though if you believe you have found the reason for self-awareness and awareness of awareness please do explain instead of directing towards a book.

      If you really have, then you have not only made some supplements highly creditable but also found the secret to life.
      Thanks.
      You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light.

      It would be nice to believe that neuroscience is the key to consciousness, but so far philosophers and neuroscientists have not found a definite answer. So many theories arise from the question of what causes awareness/perception/experience and neuroscience is a strong theory, stating that neurobiological brain processes are the cause of conscious processes. If you want good material on neuroscience and philosophy coming together to answer consciousness you should read up on Roger Penrose's and Stuart Hameroff's studies on the idea that human consciousness is the result of quantum effects in the microtubules, which are the structural components within cells.

      Yes ZenVortex, I have read my books; many of which deal with neuroscience.

      Althought you may be a scientist and could have a stronger background in neuroscience than I, at this current point in time, to my knowledge, there is no full-proof explanation for consciousness. However since you seem like you could defend the point I would really like to hear your theories behind it and some neuroscience material if you wouldn't mind sharing the names of the books. Thank you

      And being a scientist, could you shed some light on the B6 theory to affecting lucid dreaming? It's always nice to have credible input

      Another great book that deals with the neuroscience of consciousness, along with other things such as Lucid dreaming (for a few pages), psychadelic drugs, and consciousness expansion, check out "Zen and the Brain" by James Austin
