hello i read "the tibetan yogas of dream and sleep" by tenzin wangyal rinpoche a few years ago but found it to be to rigourous to practice. however since then i have started meditating every day for a half hour, i quit drinking/smoking, etc. and now, having read the book again, i am practicing whole heartedly! i have had many lucid dreams before using MILD and some other techniques from stephen laberge but whenever i stop practicing i stop having them. i'm quite confident the tibetan method will work and am going to update here. the method is CONSTANTLY reminding yourself that you are dreaming, ALL DAY. really feeling it not just saying, or thinking it. in theory if you are always thinking this then it will manifest in your dreams as well which will help you attain lucidity. i have been doing it since the start of march. it is tough because i work at a bank and have to think about lots of math but i feel that with the presence of mind i've acheived through meditation i am suited for this technique now more than ever. wish me luck! if anyone has any questions let me know and i'll be glad to answer. there's a lot more i could say about the yogas and buddhism in general (i've spent some time with chan monks at the temple in missouri).
