Hello,

I wanted to get a few opinions on what happened here in this dream. I have been reading Waggonner's book "Lucid Dreaming" and he talks about intelligent dream figures and talking to them in order to go/discover more about yourself. So, I had a dream about two months ago, semi-lucid, where I walked through a hanging tapestry and found myself in a new dream where I encountered God/Divine Dream Figure. I was not fully lucid or lucid enough to control myself, so I wasn't prepared. I decided I would incubate this dream again and use a door to turn my dream into a garden where I'd find God/Divine Dream Figure and ask "How can I more easily and frequently realize I'm dreaming while I'm dreaming?" (long I know)

So, I have a dream. I am on a train platform and I am very lucid. I find an elevator and walk towards it so that I could use it to change the dream. In doing so, there are two dream figures who start to chase me to stop me from getting in the elevator, but I beat them. I see floors 1-7, then a "G" which I assume is for "Garden". I go to the Garden Floor which is floor 8 and I eventually find the God/Divine Dream Figure. He has an assistance, just like in my last dream, except this time there are slight difference of course: both of them are men, in the previous dream the assistance was a woman. This time God was a white guy and the assistance was an Asian guy. Last time it was a black man and a black woman. He picked up his iPhone when he saw me and turned around so I flagged him down. He looked like he was going to be busy so I said "You know who I am and what I'm here for" lol. That got his attention and he put down his phone. So, before I asked my question I said "I thought you were a black guy?" to which he responded something like "Well, I am God. So if you could always point me out that wouldn't be very Godlike." I was like ... "Ok I see your point" and carried on. I asked my question "How can I more easily and frequently realize I'm dreaming while I'm dreaming?". I THOUGHT I said it perfectly, even when I think back I recall saying those exact words. I've been practicing this question for about a month waiting for my chance.

They both looked like they were pondering my question and the assistant alluded to me having said "Feel" or "feeling". So maybe I thought or perhaps even said something like, "How can I more easily and frequently feel that I'm dreaming while I'm dreaming?". God said "Well the way your question is worded ... um..." So I interrupt him and clairify, "How can I know?". They both ponder for a moment, then they both turn to look at me and right when our eyes meet I wake up back in my bed. Normally when I'm waking up from a lucid dream the scene gradually fades, even if quickly, but I haven't experienced like an ... oh I'm here then I'm not *poof*.

When I woke up I just had this overwhelming feeling that I got kick out somehow because ... well I don't know why. I read that sometimes your subconscous/unconscious will not answer the question you asked. I laughed at myself. Maybe my mind wants me to figure it out and not ask like that. I wanted to get some other opinions. I am going to incubate the dream again and ask again though
