Thread: I'll Send You A Virtual Cookie...

Remember that for WILD you need to fall asleep while keeping awareness, not to stay awake and/or wait for something. As for the noise, remain calm and keep awareness, also check out this thread for more on dream entry: http://www.dreamviews.com/wake-initi...ntry-wild.html

Most of the time you get different types of HH. Sometimes it's visual, auditory, or even tactile. You can enter LD from all of them, they just require different approach. Check the link Scionox posted above.

Also, here is a great WILD (sageous) tutorial. Among other things, he talks about how to initiate a dream, so you can enter it. Good luck.

The most intense experiences in my life have always involved unusual sounds/vibrations.
The low intensity sounds you are encountering shows you are on the right path.
As your skills, and experiences expand, the sound should go up in frequency.
The unexplainable experiences I have encountered had a high pitched whine, like a mosquito flying by my ears.
Several reports of vibrations, and sounds are reported by Robert Monroe, as he enters the dream state.
Also, many yogis say this is a common sound to hear when advanced meditations are mastered.
The so called Chakras also go up in frequency as you travel from the lowest to the crown.
The choice to put a meaning to your experience can be any one of these explanations, or maybe something completly different.
Might even be a next door neighbour switching on a washing machine.

Now, I want the cookie. Gimme, gimme. It's mine......

Sometimes it may be the case that you already have transitioned or are very close. Try floating above your body to check that or alternatively to go somewhere else, visualize a scene and concentrate on it. Good luck!

I get the same thing when I haven't slept for a while, go to sleep, then wake up before Ive gotten enough sleep. For me, it's an intense ringing sound, but its more like a feeling than a sound. I can hear it, but it resonates all throughout my head. Usually when it happens, I'm not trying to WILD though so I just stick with it, and sometimes Ill transition, and other times ill just fall asleep. It's best if when it happens again, you just ride it out. If it happens, great! If it doesn't, there's always next time.

Where is my cookie...................
No cookie. Then I want a bun...............


In fact, every reply on here deserves a cookie, or a bun

Thank you all for the wonderful responses! Sorry I haven't replied sooner!

I really like your ideas presented TiredPhil - if only because my ego likes to think it has found some road to advanced meditation (perhaps not the case, but I would like to think so).

I definitely need to work more on what NyxCC suggested and explore my state (whether dream or waking) when I have this incredibly intense sounds in my head. I do have difficulty, though, because it absolutely consumes my senses.

Perhaps I should just keep trying to relax, let my breathing/heart slow down and accept the sound as it pummels me.

And without further adieu...

If I can take my attention from those cookies, I'd also like to say that I plan to keep this thread fairly active as I continue to experiment with these sounds and see what kind of progress (if any) I can make.
