If LDing is used to help life in the waking world (as in making choices and decisions) & if you dont understand the dream - What then? |

Doesn't matter if you understand the dream or not. I base this on the fact that it doesn't even matter if you remember the dream or not. Problem solving processes occur regardless (they tested this. People who took a nap between solving puzzles did better than those who were told to "just think about it" during the break interval.) |

Even if your conscious mind cannot reach a clear understanding, the message and information is processed by your sub/unconscious. You're learning while you're dreaming, even if you don't know it. |

There are certainly dreams, and there are certainly nightmares; I believe you can't have the dream without the nightmare.

Theta state is the best state to be in for problem solving, not delta. |

I guess you're right. Being aware of your dream is still not the same as being aware of your sub conscious workings. It might get you closer- experiencing it more directly. Considering that you still can be surprised in your lucid dreams and have unwanted content, it is still not a direct connection. |
