///my vision\\\

I can seriously see myself getting really good at this. Once I'm able to see and control objects, shapes, and the environment with my eyes closed, I have several goals in hand. One of them, which is obvious, is to induce a lucid dreaming. I can see this future technique becoming both popular, and infamous. Popular because, if you are able to get the hang of it (which would just take practice), this technique would have a 100% success rate (or near 100). Another reason why I can see it getting popular is because you would have an opportunity to practice this technique in the day and night time (a time where you aren't sleepy). This gives the practitioner to practice all day, if he/she pleases, without unnecessarily losing hours of sleep.

I believe it will also become infamous, because you are inducing REAL LIFE HALLUCINATION. If just anyone tries this without being prepared, they can possibly give themselves a fright.They can even start developing the technique even when they don't want to, giving themselves open eye hallucination (which will probably be more freaky than closed eye). I will test, and experiment with myself with those kinks, making it so that the possible negative affect is decreased, but as I said in the intro, you are opening a door to your mind. Do this with confidence, and you'll have nothing to worry about. Do this with fear, and you'll have everything to worry about. Lastly, if you want to do this, but are worried that you might not be able to control the hallucination, this technique will not be for you. It's only for those who are sure they can control themselves and what they see.
