all seasoned LDrs <click here>

Well I've decided to make this topic to test a theory of mine.

I need you all to do two things:

1) post your single most amazing lucid dream. not amazing to people that hear it, but amazing to you as a person when it was happening.

2) when your done with that, post your most amazing sounding LD, (that meaning the one you would tell people that wanted to hear an amazing story)

examples:

1) I found myself in the most beautiful environment Iv ever seen in my life, I was in a field of pillow soft wheat floating 3 ft above the ground, I began to look into the distance and saw massive mountains to my north and an endless sea to the south. just then I said to myself "this is heaven"

2) I became lucid finding myself in an office building that looked very similar to the leaning tower of pizza, suddenly I felt a massive earthquake ripping through the building. still retaining my lucidity I dove out the window and free-fell for at least 20 stories before spreading my arms and gliding towards what looked like a massive alien vessel.
[story goes on from there]

anyway anyone can do this, you don't have to be a pro you just have to have had at least one LD (you can fill out one or two individually but I'm hoping you'll do both)

(note: please post real LDs please, and try not to exaggerate them (as I said I'm testing a theory)

anyway lets hear them then :D

PS.(/putting this post here for future use)

lets keep this thread slightly organized please :)

and also It would be nice if you could tell me how many LDs you've had (if you've had a ton just say alot :P)

Allright..Might aswell give it a shot...Here we go!

I was standing on flat ground,looking at the grassy plain. I immediantly remembered I had trouble flying in other LD's,and decided to try in this dream,I had a new felt confidence. As I jumped in the air I felt lighter,moving upwards. Soon I was high into the sky,flying above the clouds,shooting forwards at a high speed. I spread my arms and legs,like a skydiver,I still shot forwards,grinning as I looked downwards at the clouds. I realized I was waking up,I was moving upwards,I just let my body go,only to sit up in my bed,a large grin on my face. I soon realized I had an LD,and that,was another night's end...

Thanks for the bump/ dream :D

but for future posters: **points to the first post** (please at least loosely follow the criteria ;))

but seriously, thanks I thought this post/ idea was lost forever :D

Sorry...Did I follow the rules/regulations? I tried my best..So err...

Ya..Just tell me if I did something wrong..Thanks.

I can&#39;t really answer the question, as I haven&#39;t yet had any amazing LDs, but what&#39;s the theory? I&#39;m curious. ;)

I&#39;ve had tons of lucid dreams, can&#39;t say how many

The most amazing lucid dream I&#39;ve had personally isn&#39;t even as cool sounding as Billybob&#39;s, but it was like a revelatory experience to me. I awoke in a bed in a small cabin, and saw in front of me a wooden door with a purple flower like a lilac hanging from one side of the door. Something about it and the way it looked immediately tipped me off that I was dreaming. Looking around, it was far more real and far more vivid than any dream I&#39;d ever had, nothing changed when I looked away and looked back. I just sat there, taking in my surroundings, the sounds, and the sensations. I felt exactly as I would as if awake, yet there I was, in a whole new world made up in my head. From there, I did a few other things, but none of it was as amazing to me as the first portion.

The most interesting story wise? That&#39;s a tough question, because the lucid dreams I can remember months and years later are usually the most vivid and awake ones, which also tend to be less strange and more realistic in many ways. I suppose it would be the one in which I was walking through an abandoned house or shop, and heard somebody coming, so I ran out the door. As I was running, I hopped and floated for a minute, and knew I was dreaming for sure. I ducked through stands of trees and ran, the henchman of whoever was chasing me were everywhere, wearing masks. I ducked behind a building, where a henchman was. I had no gun to fight him, and couldn&#39;t make one materialize, so I had a henchman with a gun come around the corner with a gun, and I disarmed him and fought the bad guys. Then, I accidentally shot the middle finger off of my friend&#39;s hand, who was on a ledge on the second floor of a nearby building. This one is tied for the one where I talked with my dead friend, which would be interesting mainly to people who knew him. He didnt say much, but it was interesting nonetheless.

cool topic :)

1. Most amazing: I became lucid in an old stone jail cell with heavy metal bars. The detail and realism were as if I were awake. Recognizing the dream for what it was, I knew that the guards would be along shortly to bring me before whoever was going to judge me, and I decided to wait and see what would happen rather than trying to take control. The guards came and walked me through what appeared to be the bottom floor of an old stone farmhouse and stopped before two large double doors. And then it hit me. I was going to be judged. I was going to be standing before a panel - a legalistic representation of my own subconscious - and I could ask it anything I wanted. Anything. I was getting excited, and then the doors opened onto a stark white school auditorium. White floors, white walls, hardly any depth perception. I was lead inside and stood 20 or so feet from a long line of folding tables set end-to-end, behind which sat the panel of judges. My own mind fit for the picking. It was one of the most profound moments of my life. I could learn my inner motivations, desires, fears, and dreams. I could do in a few minutes what it takes psychologists years (and thousands of dollars) to uncover. And I could think of nothing. Absolutely nothing. Blank mind. No ideas. No amazing, profound, insight-granting question. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. I was so angry with myself when I awoke. But it was still awesome to stand before that table knowing that I could ask whatever I wanted, even if I didn&#39;t.

2. Most amazing sounding: A long LD involving an escape from jail and my old elementary school principal, fleeing across an historic neighborhood full of people out to capture/kill me, through tunnels of ice, and onto a wooden ship where I got martial arts lessons from a master, and finally exited to the deck of the boat to watch the sun twinkle off of a deep blue sea. (That doesn&#39;t sound very amazing the way I describe it here, but to go into the detail that made it incredible would take too much time.)

This Lucid dream seemed rather an oddity for me at least.

IT began as a WILD. Which that in itself is rare for me. 95% of my LDs are DILD or hynagogiclally induced.

I was half asleep & partial awake thinking about transplanting hosta plants that I had dug up. As I realized I was drifting off into a sleep like state I told myself to recognize that I am dreaming next time I plant Hostas. So remained the thought of just that. The next thing I realize I was ...planting hostas. Everything seemed real. I did numerous Rcs. Finally the spade shovel I had been using was a digging shovel. BANG . I ma DREAMING BABY&#33;
What would normally be great as most lucid dreams turned out to be very taxing on my brain..even today.

As I turned to look at my surroundings everything was burnt sienna to be exact --Brown.
Even the thick atmosphere had a hue of brownish tint. The aura of something evil was all over me and the dream scape. I am not a religious person for what that counts.
But I know what evil feels like.
What disturbs me is that I have had several other lucid experiences that I am fully aware but am just an active viewer of the dream scene that plays out "it&#39;s" role regardless of my efforts.
Members have suggested a lack of confidence that brings about a lack of control. I don&#39;t believe this to be true. I have control of myself which in turn you would think would also bring the ability to change my surroundings. Not the case. Any attempt tot do so is quickly thwarted my some obstacle or another. As if the dream was meant to play out as it must.
Very hard to explain. I have tried in detail before and did not receive much in site. ---&#62; http://www.dreamviews.com/forum/view...=233859#233859
Tonight. I am not afraid. I am Confused, Tired. I welcome any experience.
If there is a sign, I am not seeing it.
Who do I ask? There is nothing but a desolate, drab and demonic realm I am caught up in.
Also one in which it takes many efforts to awake from.

it&#39;s hard to pick just one, but...

(most impressive) -i became lucid in a house. the realism was quite exceptional. i wandered around curiously and came across a girl levitating in a room by herself (she had been in one or two dreams earlier in the night).

we embraced. my mind was clear of verbo-intellectual thought. incredible peace and love and understanding was shared.
i was fully home for the first and only time in my life.

-(best sounding).

i was in SP, trying to WILD. i heard sharp striking on my desk, and a voice taunting me maliciously. i maintained calmness, exited without difficulty, and chased the shadowy entity out my bedroom door before he disappeared.

whereupon i walked onto my back patio (a decent approximation to its waking life template) and took off flying above my neighborhood. a voice suggested i look down, and i discovered the whole neighborhood was flooded, with only sporadic rooftops protruding from the shimmering surface.

i glided down and ran over the surface of the water like a jesus lizard, feeling/hearing each "plop splash" as my feet touched. eventually dropped beneath the water and lost lucidity.

----
had around a hundred lucids, give or take.

personally, i find that the most memorable and remarkable lucids are ones with emotional intensity. while the lucids others most enjoy hearing accounts of are action based.

most people can roughly estimate the sensation of flying over water. but it is more difficult to share a feeling of complete and profound compassion/peace with another person.

less interesting tomost as well :wink:

Damn Wombing&#33; You gotta teach me how to fly like that&#33; Remember me ? I&#39;m sss3d. You used to be Asher. I tried to reach you through email so many times...

1) I&#39;d say that the most amazing LD to me is one of these 2, they are connected. In the first one I spontaneously turned to a DC next to me and asked her "Why am I in this dream?" , she responded intelligently.
The second dream involves me asking for an audience with my subconscious mind and although I&#39;ve failed that was the first time when I succeeded in asking that. Before I believed that I couldnt do that.

2) The most amazing sounding LD.

Here&#39;s one of my earliest epics. After returning to my room from the bathroom I&#39;ve realized that the digital clock on my table was messed up. This triggered lucidity. I&#39;ve slipped through a glass window and found myself outside. It was cold and snowy and although I felt the cold I ignored it. After moving in the middle of a road I levitated about 30 feet and used the attraction flying method to follow a police car for a few blocks. This was pretty cool. I&#39;ve landed at an intersection and decided that I want to "see energy" like explained in the book "the art of dreaming". I focused on a few objects, including a little girls bike and tried the technique. All objects turned to dust. Feeling compassion for the little girl I conjured another bike and gave it to her. I&#39;ve decided to move on and started flying but a powerline sucked my flying power so I landed on top of it and looked around. What I saw was the most beautiful forest with palaces and golden statues under a clear blue sky. The sight was breathtaking and I spent a good minute or two looking at this scene. Every time I looked away and looked back some part of the landscape would change but the image was still crystal clear and sharp. This was the first time I saw landscape like that. I&#39;ve decided to move closer but lost lucidity half way through.



I&#39;ve had a lot of LDs.

1.) Most amazing LD is when I created this gorgeous italian villa/cathedral looking thing, overflowing with bougainvillea. I could see flecks of sunlight in my peripheral vision, hear birds chirping, smell the ocean nearby. It was the most vivid and real looking/feeling/sounding LD I ever had. And it was so effortless...I mean, i thought I was about to lose lucidity and wake up, when suddenly I was in this place. I didn&#39;t have to work to make it, it was just there. All I had to do was explore it.

2.) Most amazing sounding? Pants, I can&#39;t really remember. I mean, nothing really stands out. Let me scan my journal real quick and then I&#39;ll post it.

Okay, I&#39;ll try this

1. I was hanging around my house and stuff, lucid, don&#39;t remember how I became lucid, but got bored and tried to change everything. There was this girl with me that I had a huge crush on at the time (celebrity, though) and she seemed to be in love with me in the dream. Anyway, I meneged to fly to the roof and escape my family where there was this interplanetary teleportation device. The girl joined me, and yet no one else could (because I really didn&#39;t want them, too, like symbolically starting my own life, I think, I wanted to ditch my family). There was this interplanetary teleportation device (I&#39;ve told this story before) that we entered, her first. It was the most amazing place I&#39;ve ever seen, trippy, gorgeous, stellar, just amazing full of vibrating light and fluxuating energies, and planets, any planet I wanted I could enter. We picked one to enter and flew through the atmosphere, then I woke up.

2. In my mom&#39;s house, and failing miserably at trying to dress myself in a cool way to prepare for fun, I finally decided to just fliy off. The country side was sort of deteriorating until I was off the edge of the world and started flying trhrough crators and hollowed out Earth until I came upon a futuristic space battle, our enemy was powerful. I had no gun, but could shoot lasers out of my fingers, but my aim sucked so I just used my jedi powers and shoved the bad guys against stuff, including their fatty, fast-action tanks. I kicked some ass until the battle ended.

Hey guys,

Cool idea for a topic, I see what you&#39;re getting at (I think) and have pondered on it myself. It seems that Lucid Dreams are very personal, like music or art- no one can ever really know what you get out of it.

1. My most profound Lucid Dream was quite recently after reading the first chapter of "Opening to Channel" before I went to bed. After using the spinning technique to prolong the dream for a record 3 times, on the forth spin I remembered the book and its startling content and requested that when I stop (spinning) I meet my spirit guide(s). I was successful and it was absolutely beautiful... details would paint a more spectacular picture but I think it illustrates well how such an AMAZING experience can seem not so to others (even those who are lucid dreamers).

2. My best sounding one was my first extended Lucid Dream (20 or so real-time minutes). I was playing a video game (which is not common for me in waking life, although I was watching my girlfriend play Grand Theft Auto for ages). I saw my character from behind as he was walking (I was walking him) through a forest scene. I realised that this was a game about Lucid Dreaming and my character started to flash/blink/shake which I knew meant he was able to now fly.

Suddenly (nice and watershed) I (my dream self- the game was forgotten) was walking through a forest. When I went to step over a log I felt a shifty lightness to my step and thought that I may be able to defy gravity for some reason.

"Maybe I&#39;m dreaming?" I thought. So I looked at my feet and the path around me, seeing high definition leaves and general forest action. "No, everything is much too real" I thought in reply.

Then a voice &#39;came&#39; to me and said, "But even &#39;real life&#39; is a dream. Why not try and fly?"

My own voice (a small voice within me) replied, "No, that&#39;s not true, if I try I could hurt myself." After he (for it wasn&#39;t really me) said those cowardly words, I ignored him and flew into the air, elated and intensely lucid.

The rest of the dream was spent showing off to my girlfriend, doing graceful Ninja-like maneuvers, jumping up into tall trees, flying &c. She was very happy for me, clapping her hands and smiling.

In the end we were lying together in our bed talking about our lucid adventures. A knowing came across me and I said to her, "it&#39;s time to wake up, but before we do you must remember the number "23" so we know we were dreaming together. This was amazing in itself as it was the first time the number "23" turned up in my dream; it is a very magickal, powerful number to me.

I woke up and she did too. I asked her if she knew what I meant when I said the number "23". She jumped up and down in the bed, ecstatic and exclaimed, "YES&#33;&#33;&#33; I DO&#33;&#33;&#33;" Soon afterward, I woke up, this time for real. I realised immediately I had just had (a rather cheeky) false awakening. I woke my girlfriend up and asked her about the "23" and she sleepily mumbled, "No, sorry."

I didn&#39;t mind, "what an experience" was all I could think.

I love dreams where wisdom seemingly outside of yourself is shown, like "Even &#39;real life&#39; is a dream."

Dae,

Rob.

My best lucid dream to date was one dream I had where I was at school (everything was different but it always is) and I soon became lucid. That dream was at the time my most lucid and most real dream ever. It was absolutely breath-taking. I did quite a few things in that dream (oh yeah, it was my longest yet too). One thing that really stands out was the flying. I have been flying in my dreams since I was six, maybe younger, and that was the second fasted speen I reached whilst flying ever. The other time was a non-lucid dream and the best non-lucid dream I ever had. (I have since beaten my highest flight speed when I lucidly flew the length of a mountain range a hundred kilometres long in five minuets). Great dream.

I don&#39;t really know what lucid would be the most exciting to someone else. Perhaps my first one, when I was seeing just what I could do. I flew (but nothing new there), I flung a truck with super-strength and I climbed a wall like Spiderman. I also overcame my first and only false awakening. I soon after played Tetris on my wall. The second level had me playing as Samus Aran destroying the falling blocks so that they wouldn&#39;t crush me.

In total, I have had somewhere between 20 and 30 LDs.

1)had a dream where i was a wizard and i had to train to be added to the elite squad of wizards. i became uninterested in the training and decided to look around my area. i was in an old area that consisted of many dark passage ways and many shops that sell beer and other liquiprs. seems as if it was in the 18th centurary but only more dark. after looking about i found a spirit. I followed her up by flying. i flew up with her tunil i woke up.

2) basicly i was in an alley and i was being mugged by some people, after i was mugged and robbed i started looking around for something to do when i decided to try to fly so i went on a sky scraper and flew off the top into the street. at first i was fallng, but i still had control over my flight. when i almost hit the ground i flew back up and flew for a while ver the big city. it looked like new york only there wasnt any people at all.
