Having been a lucid dreamer for a couple years I feel its necessary to
look at this topic from another viewpoint:
seeing it as total BS
If theres one thing I can't stand its when trolls come along into the forum and try to make up tall tales in order to make everyone think they're superhuman or something.
Though this guy was pretty good at keeping his facts straight, I think I've found a few mistakes that may point to him being an ignorant noob thats never even had a lucid dream:
First theres this:
I'm a pretty old lucid dreamer[/b]
Thats innocent enough eh?
Well note what he says later:
i began walking around wondering why the dream felt so real it didn't seem to have the feeling of a dream anymore.
i could feel the wall the cold the heat the wind and everything around me.[/b]
wow, you'd think that someone thats been LDing for "10+ years" would have learned to feel the wind/heat/cold all the time in his dreams... this guy acts like feeling those things was miraculous or something
Personally, I felt every one of those tactile sensations in my very first LD
Then this:
Anyway making the story short i made my way through life in that dream for en entire months time normaly i hear alot of people saying that time can usualy feel compressed or etc but to me it felt like a month day in and day out.[/b]
"it felt like a month day in and day out"
Hmm... notice how here all he does is say: "felt like a month" You'd think that if he had actually lived out a month (real world time), living in a real world with buses, cars, TVs, and stores, that he may have elaborated on the details a bit more (maybe by telling us that he had a watch or often sat staring at clocks or something like that {which is what any normal person thats been LDing for so long would do})
(yes I realize this point isn't very well based {not knowing the inner workings of his mind and all}, but its just common sense to have done that)
I had gone to check it out and i reached the original point i was when i first saw the distortion and my dream felt like a dream again.
Then i was finaly able to wake myself up.
After fooling around some more of course XD.[/b]
What the heck?
You've been in an alternate dimension for 30 days... Whats the first thing you do when you finally escape back into your reality and gain the ability to wake your dreaming self up?
I'll leave that for you to decide
Anyone ever had this experience ?[/b]
When lying its very common to ask questions that are made to be extremely ignorant sounding in order to make people view you as an equal.
Thats just how I personally see this statement
Who knows though, maybe he really is that " "
These two statements (placed two "paragraphs" apart), send me the message that he was making this up as he went along.
First he says:
i am very sure it was in jap somewhere .[/b]
Then he suddenly remembered a little later exactly where he was at in "jap" (he would have put this with his last sentence if he wasn't just making it up as he went along):
as for my location i think i was near the outscirts of tokyo.[/b]
Hmm...
i ended up working for a store named uniqlo or something like that[/b]
Wow, worked there a month and can't even remember the name...
nice
i ended up working for a store named uniqlo or something like that it was a clothes store and the prices where pretty cheap to. I had to get used to the job since i spoke english . i knew a little bit of japanese but that didn't do me much good.[/b]
Personally, if I owned a store here in America and some guy that couldn't speak English wanted to work for me (this is a customer service job) I would say no, no matter who recommended them to me.
So the sales clerk helped me out a bit out of hard and confusing spots.[/b]
Wow, you were opening boxes of clothes and putting them on clothes hangers... I sure am glad you had that lady to help you out with the "hard and confusing spots"--
What the hell?
as for what i did in my spair time well i visited a few place so i could see the sights.[/b]
So you had enough knowledge of where you were at to "see the sites" but yet you can't even give us a definitive name of the city (that you lived in for 30 days)?
that the biggest flaw I've seen yet (other than his intensely bad grammar skills)
In fact, I think I'll close on that

The Reason I Just Tried to Tear Apart This Topic:
I love lucid dreaming almost as much as life itself, When people try to make it seem "mystical" or "supernatural" I take heavy offense.
Why?
because I myself have never seen anything that leads me to believe that lucid dreaming is magical. Every scrap of evidence that I've seen says it can all be explained in a couple sentences (the "magical" things that happen to some people)
Also, who knows how many logical, intelligent, people may read this post and say: "oh, lucid dreaming is just a bunch of bullshit new-age madness" and never even consider coming back to it again.
Lucid dreaming is a gift, it should never be misconceived as being something more than it is (that only leads to disappointment in the end)
Note: I can't prove or disprove my suspicions, I can only tell you what causes them and let you make a logical decision for yourself.
Please don't flame if you disagree, I won't be posting in this topic again.
