I've been lucid 3 times. Those 3 times I had, what I could most definatly call, the most intense experiences of my life. My most memorable one was a gunfight outside the Chernobyl nuclear power plant [I'm an avid S.T.A.L.K.E.R fan]. I'm getting close to being able to get more though, thanks to practicing MILD I have been able to at least change what I dream about to include dreamsigns. Feel free to talk sometime on MSN or AIM with me, my address is in my profile.

Good luck!

NO!

Its different,

When you lucid dream and then wake up you have continuity, you know where you have been and what you have been doing, as with any moment in life and most of all you know you have been thinking throughout the dream. This is different to normal dreaming where you only have a memory of the dream. Hard to explain but once you get your first lucid you will understand.

Here's my "paradox" idea. What if we incorporate our dreams into our waking life. Create some kind of "feedback loop" integrating our waking life into our dreams and vice-versa. Just a wacky idea.

I'm not entirely sure what you're saying, but then again, it's supposed to be a paradox isn't it? Hehehe. Anyway, that can be done. I did it last night. When I practiced MILD, I incorporated a chunk of my waking life into my dream life. From my dreams, I've managed to incorporated details and happenings into my waking life (usually in the form of art, dreams are the pinnacle of creativity - beleive me on that one).

What do you get? What those tibetan monks get. You are so confused from what is what that you class being awake and asleep as dreaming! Hehehe.
