Thread: Hey... This is a really pathetic question, but...

From the site

There is nothing inherently difficult to understand about the concept of lucid dreaming: as stated in the introduction, lucid dreaming is simply dreaming while being aware you are dreaming. You can think of lucid dreaming as being conscious while dreaming. *If, by chance, during a dream it suddenly dawns on you that you are dreaming, then you have experienced a lucid dream, regardless of whether you have been able to attain control of your dream.[/b]

Actually, I suggest you read everything on the site.

Yea, I suggest reading all the texts from the main site too.

Anyway, to answer your "really pathetic question": Yes, you're absolutely right. Whenever you're aware of that you're dreaming, you're having a lucid dream, no matter whether you had any control over your dream or not.

yeah reading everything the site has to offer is a good idea, but my take on lucid dreaming is being able to realize you asleep in bed and then you can control your dream and do whatever you want. I think its the key to true self realization.

you could also read this book, it has all the information about lucid dreaming you could have, its called LaBerge, Stephen - Exploring The World Of Lucid Dreaming...

ps: don`t be shy.. ask whatever you want, i think we all know here what is being new...

"It is better to ask a pathetic question and get an answer than to ponder on a question that everyone thinks you should know the answer to."

You can quote me on that.

The real concept of lucid dreaming is just the fact that if you can confidently say to yourself I am dreaming when you are you are lucid. It is always good to learn and we want to teach you.
