Hey DV,
About a month ago I had a lucid dream in which I exercised more control then ever before. I was being chased by enemies and was exhausted from already fighting and barely surviving. I decided to consciously get into a “master of the universe” state of mind. What ended up happening was I got into a very powerful mind state and achieved immense control over everything. My enemies feared me no matter how foul they were. They all froze and displayed fear in their eyes. I charged up a huge energy ball and sent everyone flying. I then unfortunately forgot what I was doing and fell into a non LD. I brushed the incident off and had several following lucid dreams with my usual control (not always that great). It wasn’t until today that I realized how this state of mind could really affect lucidity. I’ve read time and time again that belief is the most important key to dream control.
My definition of the “master of the universe” state of mind:
A convictive state of mind in which one comes to the full realization that one is in complete control of the laws of the universe that they presently exist in.
While lucid, one is technically the master of ones universe. If one comes to full realization of this fact, they will be able to manipulate the laws of the universe with ease. This state of mind will make forced control simple.
Some possible methods of achieving the “master of the universe” state of mind
This method has not been fully tested. However, it incorporates a few techniques that I believe will aid the achievement of the necessary state of mind. For the following steps
it is necessary to put effort into believing in yourself.
- Try to clear all thoughts (meditation in real life will help a lot)
- Say out loud with complete confidence, that it is your universe and you dictate the rules. (not necessarily in those exact words just make sure to affirm to yourself that you are the master) While saying it, concentrate on feeling control over everything around you
- Pull all of the energy out of your surroundings. To do this concentrate on your surroundings all together and envision all their energy flowing into your body, charging you with power (anybody read Eragon?)
- Put your hands on your head and envision yourself taking control over your entire brain including the unconscious.
- Take a moment to really embrace the fact that logically, since you are creating the universe around you, you can perform any task imaginable.
I have not yet tested and researched the method. I will be testing it over the next few weeks as I am currently participating in “The 90 days WILD project”. I will add a lot to the method and probably edit the shit out of it. I encourage feedback positive or negative. If you want to work with the theory and add to the method, feel free to post your results. I will test them myself and if successful add it to the method. I will also include research notes beside the listed method bullets to let you know if they were successful in building conviction toward the “master of the universe” mind set.
I believe that if this theory is true, and if a method is created that can achieve the “master of the universe” mind state in its entirety, strong dream control will be a lot easier and we will be able to truly explore all the possibilities of lucid dreaming. This state of mind could greatly aid things like dream vividness. Who knows, maybe even manipulation time perception. The sky is the limit.
