that dream sounded exactly like a trip i had on truffles (like magic mushrooms) it was such an enlightening experience. i read a quote from someone once to do with drugs, i cant remember it word for word but it was something along the lines of.. "We take a drug and get to a special place, we should not feel the need to take the drug again to get back to that place, but spend the next 10 years getting there without the drug". thank you so much for your story. i know now that my dreams are the key
That light was the source, soul, God, whichever name you choose to use. It's the place behind the EGO. The point from which all existence is born. It is the you before yesterday before all your experiences back to when you where an infant experiencing life through the eyes of an observer, before judgement. If you can get back to this point in waking life you can put your consciousness into others and see the world from numerous perspectives. Expanding your conscious realities.
I recently had a dream of a lighthouse. There was a row of light houses stretching for miles along the shore of bethany beach Delaware. This is where in real life I have many memories of home and family. In the dream I saw the light house that had been abandoned 1/2 a century or more. Suddenly it lit up. Then in a flash all the lighthouses lit up. Then the most amazing thing & feeling came over me. I WAS the light of all the lighthouses touching everything and understanding everything.
in your dreams it sounds like that your dream is taking place in an actual world, like how dream world is a real place that we cant visit physicaly, like heaven some one would argue, but you also bring the theory that its all really just your imagination. its a very interesting contridiction thats fasinating, sometimes i like to say that there both true
i am more on the astral projection...i naturally do these all the time..i can realize that i am dreaming if i dont have a exhausted day,but as you say i get exited most of the time and what i do next is trying to make money ,,lol...i look for numbers that i can find around so next day i can hit the jackpot or looking for a mate,to satisfy my lust,now i have more control over it,and i realize that if am greedy as i am in the material world....i am going no where....
Tibetan Dream Yogis don't however consider the Void or The Clear Light as being a dream at all but two states which are distinctly seperate from dream and waking cognition. Their metaphysic :
Waking
Dreaming The Void
The Clear Light (a.k.a. Nirvana)
also check Yoga Nidra and read the Mandukya Upanishad....
I see a strong parallel between your experience in the sun and the state of consciousness that Tibetan Dream Yogis consider 'The Clear Light which essence is of the voidness'. I'm not sure if the 'being in space' before entering the sun is a symbolization of this or not.
In a lucid dream I remember a voice sayin "you will now be stuck here until your friends learn their lesson" and realised I was dreamin since life does not have a narrator. I didnt want to take full control yet I knew that the people in my dream were characters and I flew around and conjured up items. I treated my friends as real people but I had some sort of control and I felt my soul seep into my dream character but was consciously aware of my real body lying in bed. What layer would this be?
thats interesting. once, while in the hypnagogic state i looked over in my bed, saw my cat licking it's paw, then felt a sensation in my legs similar to someone pulling them upwards, and heard a woman's voice say 'hey, when are you coming home?' then i thought it was just another case of sleep paralysis and i looked over again and my cat had disappeared, and my legs felt as though they were slowly being let down.
I think it's getting a little religious with the my child stuff at the end. I try to keep lucid dreaming and religion apart as I really have no beliefs. I've heard of this part of a dream where as you accept everything as it is. Where every emotion goes through you. The super intense light in some cases a divine light or in your case a star. Cases of feeling glowing warmth and safety. It's like in that state your mind is repairing damage from mental stress or something. Just a guess. pretty cool
You went through the forest floor and found yourself in outerspace. I have many of these experiences. I often push myself through the ground and into the empty void on the other side. There is definitely something important about this phenomenon.
That is a very cool dream, but the intense emotions don't mean it was real. It seems to me that he thinks the experience felt so divine that it must have been real, spiritual, something other than the result of chemicals in his brain. It's okay to consider that that might be the case, but keep in mind that your brain is capable of producing intense emotions and feelings of spirituality, the same feelings that have caused millions to be certain that their particular religion is the right one.
@Dianeva89 you can go ahead and say that yes it is a chemical in the brain, its a chemical called dmt, however let me ask you something..... how did that chemical get there, and how did it develop itself to be so incredibly powerful. I have a hard time not connecting this to something diving or spiritual. Also yes our brain is capable of intense emotions, but why... why are we not just like ants or plants, with no feelings or thoughts just simple machines that do what we do without pondering.
Did you make this shit up I mean I doubt that sun in your dream is gonna tell u real answers and that dream sounded a little to complicated but don't get me wrong I love watching ur vids its really helped understand this topic ur very smart and u do a good job making these vids
This is really great I have not read a good amount of lucid dreaming literature yet I have had the experienece more than once. I still can not speculate about where I would be in this 5 layer system. I wonder Is this your original idea? I would not be surprised you are very well spoken on the subject.
Doing as your suppose to, keeping a dream journal, doing a couple reality checks every hour, remembering 2-3 dreams a night, how long would it take the average person before they can reach lucidity?
@tanksta15 You cant be certain it is god, have you ever pondered the thought that you could be simply encompassing "the one" as a figure you know such as god simply to better be able to comprehend it?
Dont get me wrong, there is something out there, but since there is so many different variations of it in different religions, dont be so fast to label it as your god.
I felt as if I had nothing to fear and no matter what, in the end of my time in this human body..I will meet with HIM.(Those words strenghthened my once slipping beliefs of GOD.)
@kaitywhite In arts it is called an esthetic experience. But as Reece wisely said, it is a transcendental experience. You see, when you have nothing to say about something & your response is instinctive (as it is crying for you) it only means that you've experience truth. It's not a confrontation, it's only acceptance. In real life it happens too - mostly related to the experience of causation. Look it up, you'll see as I did, that it helps you understand life & existence. Greetings from Mexico!
Reece dude can you help me i need to know how to break the these first 2 layers i dream everynight ever since iv started thu expirement with lucid dreams it plays all the way thru but i dont realize that i was dreaming until the dream is over but i have a dream book and i have dream signs that appear in most of my dreams but i cant quite break thru to the were i know im dreamin and begin to control them iv had on dream were i realize i was dreaming and i woke up all most instantly PLEASE HELP
Sometimes I wonder what kind of dreams would I be able to have in layer 4, I m not a person who is as knowledgeable as you are. I never think of going into the outer space or exploring religions that much. It's almost like I don't deserve to lucid dream. Reece, does curiousity play a huge role in lucid dreaming?
I recently entered layer 3 minor, but something EXTREMELY ironic happened haha. I knew that I had to keep myself from getting too excited, so I consciously thought about not getting excited, and made myself calm. After a couple minutes I heard a loud voice like on a megaphone yelling at me and saying "You're not even excited!? You're so ungreatful!" and then my dream literally just crumbled into black. My subconcious apparently doesn't like me very much haha.
@TimGBone OMFG i read something like that in a book, about how a guy who was like in coma but with his eyes open was able to talk to his conscience when he was out of his coma he thought he couldn't hear that voice again and then he heard " I'll always be here when you need me i cant go anywhere im inside you, im part of you, when you need someone to talk to i'll be here"
Ive only heard of this recently however i am very intrigued by the implications of what your saying. your example of the sun reminded me of most of the symbols of religions all over the globe. Horus the sun god (Eqypt), The son of god (sometimes disputed as a metaphor for the actual sun in christianity), hinduism and much more. And could it be that These people stumbled on to this state of conciousness and where it began. Its only a thoery however very thought provoking.
I really love layers 3 and 4 because I'm nearsighted and these layers are not affected by my nearsightedness (layers 0,1,2 are not clear enough so they feel the same as being nearsighted)
Holy shit i watched your videos and then had a normal dream and pinched my self and my skin was like steel it dident move and then i thought "Wait that video i watched last night about lucid dreaming this could be it!" and i remember all you said about still thinking thats its real but then again thinking it is not then i said to myself "fuck this im dreaming!" haha then BAM!! lucid and it was the greatest thing ever i was so pissed when i woke up that yelled at my brother for no reason haha!
Wow that was one of the most fascinating dreams I have ever heard of. I think it was really interesting how you go from being a squirrel in a tree to being one with the sun in the same dream... what a journey.
Wow, that sun is exactly my conception of God. One in all, and all in One. Love. Unfortunately the hate and the sin separated humans from Him. Fortunately, God loved us enough to die in our stead on the cross to free us. When bible says «in paradise with God» I have a feeling it means «within God»
Theres a fact about dreaming that if you ever meet someone in your dreamworld (like a random person walking past you), you would have met them in real life at some point, or even see them, walking around in a shopping mall.
Is everything in a dream just your imagination? Because some people were in my dream, and had the EXACT same dream. That can't be just coincidence, maybe the brainwaves your brain sends out react on the other?
the way you described it towards the end sounds a lot like my "waking state". could it be possible to get stuck in a lucid dream so long that you forget your "dreaming" and convince yourelf your awake? is their a differne ce between the two?
What does it mean if you're lucid and regular dreams have ALWAYS had the same level of perfect clarity? Can you be at a couple of layers at the same time?
When you have a lucid dream is it normal to feel like you go back into your body after that dream has ended? Every single time I end a lucid dream, I wake up and feel my breath come back, as if I had just died or something.
I once became lucid in a dream and was in a cozy little room with two women. I began questioning them on how it felt to know that they are not in fact people, but figments of my imagination. They told me they didn't feel anything towards it and began asking me how I felt about it. It was quite the circle of conversation because any question I directed at them, was really directed back at me. They even pointed this out!
uhh i'v watch a few of your videos to help control my dreams but can emotions *or something on that line* make you stop haveing LD's? and if so what do you reccomend?
i never knew you could really master this sort of thing its cool cause ive reached level 3-4s before i discover any of your videos with no dream journal or anything but it wouldnt happen too often the highest level i think i reached was almost a 4 i think because i was able to spawn people i could fly and control wat i was doing but not really control the scenery
I think that is or would be closely related to 'Astral Projection'. But I do not know if it's real, many claim it is but I can never have a lucid dream or out of body experience... I try but there's always that doubt that it can't be possible to leave the body, so I think if it were possible that doubt holds me back.
Good point. My beliefs have changed substantially since filming this video. I now don't believe that we should be so quick to label everything and everyone within our dreams as merely a figment of our imagination. We should always question what we're experiencing and who we're interacting with. I now believe that ALL dreams are occurring at a different layer of reality. I don't believe any of them JUST happen in our head.
@ReeceJones87 Wise. I came to this conclusion in reverse IE: I broke through to the fourth and fifth layers later, yet realised the characters in my dreams reacted in such a sentient, complex manner that they could not neither be figments of mine nor anyone else's imagination. When questioned, I have experienced ATTACKS by the dream characters.
It's amazing. I thought I was the only one who had these experiences. I flew in space a few times. Lucid dreaming began when I learned to control my nightmare. I sometimes became so strong I was able to beat all my enemies.
sexually attractive start to have sex and the purple man bows to my, and I walk away in triumph, knowing I was dreaming and took control of everything, but all other charcters didn't know it was a dream...
I think the closest I got to a lucid dream was when I was suddenly in space and I was around these alien races, the only I can remember is these to alien females who looked like jelatin monsters with tentacles and this one that looked human but was 7 feet tall and had purple skin. so suddenly we are battling with large sticks and I say "What the hell is going on?" and I realize I'm in a dream. So I tell the other aliens to stop fighting and make the two alien females who were hidious yet
look in the mirror - slightly tilt your head back so that you can gaze at your face and it looks to you like you are asleep because your eyes are almost closed - quietly begin to snore and deep breathe like you are asleep, then ask your self in your mind if you are awake and answer yourself out loud -at the same time drop a marble or coin that you are holding on the floor - then look away from the mirror at the object you dropped until it is still - practice this the same every day
Try to trigger your senses somehow like watch very scary movie before you go to sleep. Actually do this every time you go to sleep. In good shange you will get so used to these dreams that are so similiar togheter, that you start to regonize when you're dreaming. For example you migth think "I've seen this before... Oh this must be dream." best advice I can give. Don't really have eny trik. For me it happens occasionally. Oh, and it's more about imagination than religion.
That's quite an experience. It reminds me of two things.
1) Myself being on a heavy dose of entheogens. I didn't actually see this but I certainly understood that was divine creation.
2) The 360 degrees of knowledge belief held by ancient to modern day African tribe elders. They tell a similar tale detailing that God is really a collection of all conscious minds that have ever existed - in harmonic convergence with one another and existing as one individual entity.
ive had 2 dreams in a row now where ive seen my reflection and it looks normal just maybe i had a diferent hair colour or something. i thought your refection was always blured in a dream? x
funny that you mention this, since 2 days ago, it was thrue watching my refelction that i came to the realization that i was dreaming ad brake thrue to a short but fantastic lucid dream.
you talk about a kundalini experience and to my surprise you managed this in a lucid dream! I had the same experience but i achieved it with the help of a mushroom extract in a deep meditation focusing to find my true nature! I had already many times layer 2 maj experiences especially after reading castaneda's books, but i never got further,......i hope your input will bring me back to the 24hr. awareness and further! Thanks anyway!
that has to be one of the most amazing dreams i've ever heard... i myself last night broke into either stage 3 major or 4 minor... as i found myself being chased by a ghoul i realized this can't be real and stopped its attack.. i then felt as if my eyes widened and i invited my friends to hangout in this old attic.. and saw many different coffee mugs and old record player noise things and tried my hardest to distort their looks .. but i couldn't and they just fluctuated in size and shape ..
it's official. You have the coolest dreams ever. Even my fourth layer dreams are mundane and relatively normal. No talking suns, and amazing revelations.
Holy shit..... after just 1 week of trying and one week of really half arsed trying i managed to reach level three(minor). I am really looking forward to trying my luck to night!
Starting at about 7:22, it really sounds a little bit like you skipped out from level 3 dreaming to the edge of an OBE or astral experience similar to what most folks only experience at death.
Reece, on my third sleep of being aware of what lucid dreaming in, I became lucid in a dream, layer 3 minor I think, and I was in a huge city but no one was there. It was just buildings and everything was grey. I decided to fly, which it felt much better than when I fly in the lower layers of lucid dreams. So, I was flying then all of a sudden I stopped flying and just fell. I wasn't really afraid of the fall but I felt the feeling of when you jump off of a high dive at a pool and woke up.
Second Post: I'm amazed at myself that I reached that level in 3 days. But because I reached that layer so quickly, I'm going to be disapointed because it will take me many months to reach layer 4 minor/major. =/
How long have you been practicing lucid dreaming, and how long did it take you to reach this layer. At one time I began practicing too, but grew impatient when I didn't see results. However, due to inspiration from your videos, I am going to get another journal and start again. But I was wondering how long I should be expecting to see results. Great videos :)
It depends on a lot of things. But personally, it took me around 6 months of practice to reach the higher layers. You can reach the lower layers within days, though.
You seem to so vividly remember your dreams and with such detail. It's difficult for me to even begin to explain an outlandish sort of dream i've had to someone else, even if i just woke up and i can still clearly picture it in my mind. The more you experience lucid dreams, are your dreams easier to recount or does the memory of it vanish just as quickly?
Hey Reece, i was wondering if you have ever thought of something scary during a lucid dream, and ended up in a nightmare. Im really interested in lucid dreaming but am also skeptical because of this.
Yes, it's happened on occasion. Lucid dreams can potentially turn into lucid nightmares, but only at the lower layers where you have very little control.
oh man I live in pittsburgh pa well if im ever in england ill definitely get in touch with u lol. man u have really helped me out alot reece, thank u so much. I finally had my first lucid dream! i just knew i was dreaming but it didnt fully hit me u know what i mean, but its a start. Ur videos on lucid dreaming are by far i think the best on youtube. Keep up the good work peeeace

Ive only heard of this recently however i am very intrigued by the implications of what your saying. your example of the sun reminded me of most of the symbols of religions all over the globe. Horus the sun god (Eqypt), The son of god (sometimes disputed as a metaphor for the actual sun in christianity), hinduism and much more. And could it be that These people stumbled on to this state of conciousness and where it began. Its only a thoery however very thought provoking.
What do you think Reece

I really love layers 3 and 4 because I'm nearsighted and these layers are not affected by my nearsightedness (layers 0,1,2 are not clear enough so they feel the same as being nearsighted)

Wow, that sun is exactly my conception of God. One in all, and all in One. Love. Unfortunately the hate and the sin separated humans from Him. Fortunately, God loved us enough to die in our stead on the cross to free us. When bible says «in paradise with God» I have a feeling it means «within God»

Theres a fact about dreaming that if you ever meet someone in your dreamworld (like a random person walking past you), you would have met them in real life at some point, or even see them, walking around in a shopping mall.

These videos are awesome! but i have a few questions:
How often do you have a (full blown) lucid dream?
How often do you dream normally?
How long did it take you to fully learn this?

Is everything in a dream just your imagination? Because some people were in my dream, and had the EXACT same dream. That can't be just coincidence, maybe the brainwaves your brain sends out react on the other?

the way you described it towards the end sounds a lot like my "waking state". could it be possible to get stuck in a lucid dream so long that you forget your "dreaming" and convince yourelf your awake? is their a differne ce between the two?

What does it mean if you're lucid and regular dreams have ALWAYS had the same level of perfect clarity? Can you be at a couple of layers at the same time?
LoNeWolFy05 2 years ago
When you have a lucid dream is it normal to feel like you go back into your body after that dream has ended? Every single time I end a lucid dream, I wake up and feel my breath come back, as if I had just died or something.

I once became lucid in a dream and was in a cozy little room with two women. I began questioning them on how it felt to know that they are not in fact people, but figments of my imagination. They told me they didn't feel anything towards it and began asking me how I felt about it. It was quite the circle of conversation because any question I directed at them, was really directed back at me. They even pointed this out!

I think that is or would be closely related to 'Astral Projection'. But I do not know if it's real, many claim it is but I can never have a lucid dream or out of body experience... I try but there's always that doubt that it can't be possible to leave the body, so I think if it were possible that doubt holds me back.

Is there a way that one can truly know if our the dream characters are just our imagination, other dreamers, or even spirits?
victorme1 2 years ago 8
Good point. My beliefs have changed substantially since filming this video. I now don't believe that we should be so quick to label everything and everyone within our dreams as merely a figment of our imagination. We should always question what we're experiencing and who we're interacting with. I now believe that ALL dreams are occurring at a different layer of reality. I don't believe any of them JUST happen in our head.

@ReeceJones87 I agree. There is data stream material that is outside of normal reality and normal dream consciousness.
pootnikalexander 1 year ago
@ReeceJones87 Wise. I came to this conclusion in reverse IE: I broke through to the fourth and fifth layers later, yet realised the characters in my dreams reacted in such a sentient, complex manner that they could not neither be figments of mine nor anyone else's imagination. When questioned, I have experienced ATTACKS by the dream characters.

I think the closest I got to a lucid dream was when I was suddenly in space and I was around these alien races, the only I can remember is these to alien females who looked like jelatin monsters with tentacles and this one that looked human but was 7 feet tall and had purple skin. so suddenly we are battling with large sticks and I say "What the hell is going on?" and I realize I'm in a dream. So I tell the other aliens to stop fighting and make the two alien females who were hidious yet

look in the mirror - slightly tilt your head back so that you can gaze at your face and it looks to you like you are asleep because your eyes are almost closed - quietly begin to snore and deep breathe like you are asleep, then ask your self in your mind if you are awake and answer yourself out loud -at the same time drop a marble or coin that you are holding on the floor - then look away from the mirror at the object you dropped until it is still - practice this the same every day

RyanHarvey93 2 years ago
Try to trigger your senses somehow like watch very scary movie before you go to sleep. Actually do this every time you go to sleep. In good shange you will get so used to these dreams that are so similiar togheter, that you start to regonize when you're dreaming. For example you migth think "I've seen this before... Oh this must be dream." best advice I can give. Don't really have eny trik. For me it happens occasionally. Oh, and it's more about imagination than religion.

That's quite an experience. It reminds me of two things.
1) Myself being on a heavy dose of entheogens. I didn't actually see this but I certainly understood that was divine creation.
2) The 360 degrees of knowledge belief held by ancient to modern day African tribe elders. They tell a similar tale detailing that God is really a collection of all conscious minds that have ever existed - in harmonic convergence with one another and existing as one individual entity.

that has to be one of the most amazing dreams i've ever heard... i myself last night broke into either stage 3 major or 4 minor... as i found myself being chased by a ghoul i realized this can't be real and stopped its attack.. i then felt as if my eyes widened and i invited my friends to hangout in this old attic.. and saw many different coffee mugs and old record player noise things and tried my hardest to distort their looks .. but i couldn't and they just fluctuated in size and shape ..

Reece, on my third sleep of being aware of what lucid dreaming in, I became lucid in a dream, layer 3 minor I think, and I was in a huge city but no one was there. It was just buildings and everything was grey. I decided to fly, which it felt much better than when I fly in the lower layers of lucid dreams. So, I was flying then all of a sudden I stopped flying and just fell. I wasn't really afraid of the fall but I felt the feeling of when you jump off of a high dive at a pool and woke up.
MathewofRedwall 2 years ago
Second Post: I'm amazed at myself that I reached that level in 3 days. But because I reached that layer so quickly, I'm going to be disapointed because it will take me many months to reach layer 4 minor/major. =/

How long have you been practicing lucid dreaming, and how long did it take you to reach this layer. At one time I began practicing too, but grew impatient when I didn't see results. However, due to inspiration from your videos, I am going to get another journal and start again. But I was wondering how long I should be expecting to see results. Great videos :)

It depends on a lot of things. But personally, it took me around 6 months of practice to reach the higher layers. You can reach the lower layers within days, though.

You seem to so vividly remember your dreams and with such detail. It's difficult for me to even begin to explain an outlandish sort of dream i've had to someone else, even if i just woke up and i can still clearly picture it in my mind. The more you experience lucid dreams, are your dreams easier to recount or does the memory of it vanish just as quickly?

From my experience, memories of dreams linger for a lot longer as you become more and more skilled in lucid dreaming.

Yes, it's happened on occasion. Lucid dreams can potentially turn into lucid nightmares, but only at the lower layers where you have very little control.
