Yes, he is. He has some really detailed, intense action scenes going on in there.

Many people believe that OBEs are only another breed of lucid dream. They believe the main difference is that the one experiencing it believes it to be reality, instead of understanding it to be a dream-like experience. But the intensity and vividness seems so much more stark than in external reality, much like the contrast between a normal dream and a lucid dream. Those are the people I agree with.

And, Oneironaut, I just saw your new sig. I like it. I recognise at least one of your characters from your art thread. Nice work

Heya,

Funny, the way I saw the original movie, back when it came out, basically Neo spends the entire movie long struggling in his dream with some low level awareness, until right at the end he finally becomes "Lucid".

Unfortunatley, then they made two other movies and our Neo promptly loses Lucidity again to end up in a dream where the only thing he has are a few special powers, but a complete lack of awareness again.

In short, he's completely new at this entire lucid thing and doesn't really have a clue

Thanks, gh!
I think I'm going to change the font, when I get home, though. All of the fonts on photoshop suck, so I wanna find something better to put my name in.

Im a great FAN of Matrix . AND I LOVE THIS

I think we should try and have a giant "multi-player" game while lucid and out of body, of course the only pre-requisite to enter the game is you have to be pretty good at ld'ing and you have to believe in OBE's Whose in?

It's official..."The 'Lucid' One" would have the abilities/skills which are...(but not limited to):

* Dream Time Dilation - (Able to stay in the dream from seconds to years if s/he chooses)
* Dream Sharing/Walking - (Able to walk into others dreams and let them know they're dreaming/free their minds)
* Full mastery of Lucid Dreaming - (Able to connect with his/her subconscious focus at will allowing him/her to LD at will)
* Full mastery of Dream powers - (What "The 'Lucid' One" can/will do would make Neo look like a punk)
