If we can cultivate the habit of investigating perception, we will change our mindset and a very deeply rooted one. We will accomplish Lucid Living and that may serve us well to Lucid Dreaming.
Itīs very surprising how our minds have such a strong tendency to reify and cling to extremes, when in reality we are living in a deep intersubjective mind-matter matrix.
