You could visit them in an LD. :D

You see, something I have realized is that "the mind is a telescope, not a kaleidoscope": anything you can 'imagine' really exists somewhere, maybe not in this world, but another, either farther away or just close by. There is no reality. Even the cartoons you see on TV are real somewhere. Nobody thought them up, the so-called 'creator' use his telescopic mind and SAW them, and brought their portrayal into this world.

It is like sitting in front of a tree and drawing it, or searching on Google. You didn't 'create' the tree or the results you got, you simply recreated the tree and found the results based on the keywords you used. It is the same with the mind. That is the sacrosant algorithm of the brain. Not one of 'creation', but of search.

What a sad individual. While I agree with you on some aspects, and I do often see lucidity from a scientific stand point, have you ever concidered that that science which you seem to think is so static and secure may in itself be an illusion? Have you never considered that while lucidity may just be a figament of your subconciouse mind, it may also be the gateway into the powerfull entity that it is? The subconciouse is a powerfull object. Any scientist, or dreamer alike should recognize that. The world may be an illusion, in the words of Bradbury

"Ask for no guarentees, ask no security. There never was such an animal, and if their were it would be related to the great sloth, which sits upside down in a tree, all day, everyday sleeping it's life away. To hell with that," he said "shake the tree and knock the great sloth down on his Ass."

Dreams are not life and not ment to be lived as such. Your dreams are part of you, they can tell you much about yourself. Just don't under, or overestimate them.
And with that thought I take my leave. See you all tommorow.

Hi & welcome to the forum! I hope you like it here!
I totally agree w/you BTW. LDs are powerful, especially the one I had last night! The best power is being in there, & having complete control!
