I'm Glad To Be Here...

[Zandargo]

Hello, everyone... (As usual, I must tell you: I'm not american and I've learned English by myself, so please forgive my grammar and spelling) Let me introduce myself... My name is Madson (Mad Son works as well), I'm a 21yo brazilian guy (No, we don't live in the jungle...heheh ). I had my first LD when I was a teenager (13, maybe 14). Is was a very short one, because I got excited/amazed and then wake up. I then spent some time trying to LD and OBE without success... So I abandomned my trainning, relying on the buddhist teachings that says freedom and enlightment are more important than porsuing power. But some weeks ago I've learned that LD can be a very useful tool for undarstanding, self-knoledge and inner peace... Also, I've found out about some buddhist traditions that has LD as part of their teachings. So I've decided assuming a commitment with the task of becoming Lucid... And, as I said in a PM, no matter the cost. Harder the task, higher the reward. LD interests: My primary goal is learning to WILD... I think is my personal style. I'm sort of gifted (minor ones), but my main problem is I get too involved with the experience, so I always fail keeping the proper focus... Other relevant informations I'm fond of The Matrix and its philosophy, but no, I don't think everything is illusions... just our ordinary points of views and perceptions. I like Star Wars and its Jedi Way too, but rest assured I don't use it as an escape gate fron the reality to fantasy... I like this world and I want to fully live on it. Feel joy to be living. My interest is just purifying my perceptions... If anyone is identified with me and my history, please contact me. I'd be very pleased and honored with any help you could give me and I'll also try helping any way I can.

Hi and welcome to Dv LD's can be good for self knowledge, but they are also good for having fun, like flying ect Do you have a dream journal or do reality checks? They help to induce LD's. Also the tutorial section has lots of key information to help as well. Good luck.

I have a dream journal, but I have remembered only 2 by now...

[NeAvO]

With more practie you should be able to remember more dreams. Good luck

Especially the revelant information part made me laugh - as it is the least relevant information you could give on a LDing forum. Welcome to DV

[Zandargo]

Ok, NeAvO, I'll try... Thanks Tweak, I felt like saying that. Maybe that information will not change anybody's life, but... I was just trying to find someone with matched interests or something like that. Thanks for the welcome.

Haha - "It will not change anybody's life". Would be quite fun if it did. On a sidenote, your "Other revelant information" fits me too. I like Star Wars a lot, and I LOVE the Matrix universe.
