Thread: Weird Lucid Dream Logic

I can't think of a good example right now, but my lucid self is pretty stupid too.
If I think of a good example I'll post it.

I wouldn't call it so much stupid as different. One of the things I have great difficulty with is deciding what to do once I become lucid. I literally have endless possibilities spread before me and if I don't intervene I will likely end up doing something pretty boring and mundane. My solution to this is to plan what I intend to do beforehand to a certain degree. I don't plan it completely as I like there to be a certain spontaneity. Planning like this works for me. Again, I don't look my lucid self as being stupid, just completely different. For instance, my dream self can fly, my real self cannot. My real self can decide spontaneously what to do, my dream self not so much. They are both me, but in each case they are bound by different realities. That's how I feel anyway.

Dreaming is when your Subconcious Mind is playing mayor tricks on you, making you believe, see hear feel and completely experience being somewhere else while in Reality you're lying in Bed asleep.

Now I've had this happen to me too. Eventhough I was Lucid in a Dream, My Subconcious Mind still managed to fool my Lucid Self a couple of times, sometimes leading in Loosing Lucidity and sometimes being very distractive so it gives me a real hard time to focus on what I want to do in my Lucid Dream.
I guess your Lucidity was rather low. Your attention, alertness and awareness-level is supposed to be high in a lucid Dream, as it is in waking life. But sometimes we become Lucid and experience nly low Lucidity: If you'd have been highly Lucid You'd have picked up that Teleportation-Device Dreamsign...But I guess you must have lost your alertness for a sec as you were probably being distracted by the everflowing stream of thoughts and feelings of the Dreaming Mind.

Happens to me too ocasionally. Nothing to worry about: something to work on. To make your Conciousness and ability to focus undisturbed attention in Lucid Dreams stronger.
Try Meditating and Emptying & Focussing your Mind on one single Object ( A Dice will do ) and keep your Mind on that Object WITHOUT being distracted by Distractive thoughts. They are the same distractive thoughts as experienced in dreams. Only in dreams we are totally carried away by them, immersed in them and drifting on them. Try N visualise the Dice if that helps keeping your full attention focussed undisturbed on the Dice. Maybe putting a Dice some 1,5 meters away from your eyes at eyeheight and staring at it while you focus your attention on it helps. Figure out what works best.

This is a good way of training your Attention and Conciousness: Desirable for Lucid Dreaming.
