Thread: Another "false" lucid?

No. Many, many people have this definition. I can easily be aware that I'm dreaming, or that I'm omnipotent, without being conscious. I am trying to achieve consciousness, not lucidity. Lucidity's very, very easy to achieve.

*facepalm*

So you agree that it's not a false lucid then? Good, then change the topic title into: HOW CAN I GET BETTER DREAMCONTROL? Because that's exactly what ALL your stupid topics are about. I'm done with you two now. From now on I'll officially refrain from posting in any topics created by Robotgymnast or Mariano.

As I said, I'm using the term "lucid" as oppose to "conscious". If I meant "lucid" by definition, then yes, I would agree it was not a false lucid. If I used "lucid" just to mean "aware that I was dreaming", then "false lucid" would only be possible when awake. However, I would like to establish that I was not conscious during this dream, and am wondering about specifics and theories as to why. My dream control itself is rather good, but, as I said, NOT WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR. I want to be conscious.

terms like "false lucidity" just complicate things. Sure it may be something we've all experienced one time or another....but just call it a normal dream to simplify things for the rest of this community. No one wants to accept terminology like that because it only adds to the complexity. Pretty soon there's going to be false lucid induction techniques if we keep crap like this up.

OMGZORS! I INDUCED FALSE LUCIDZ ONCEZ!
.. I see what you mean
All kidding aside, I see your point, but I can sort of see Mariano's too
