Webinar 12: How to have lucid dreams (foundational techniques)

I am glad that Andrew keeps mentioning the upcoming Night Club “Acts (interviews/dialogues).” This is keeping me busy with my monthly Audible account as I try to read books and papers by upcoming experts so that I can have some background tor the subjects they cover and maybe form a few follow-up questions.

When Andrew talked about how we, here, are in the forefront of these Dream Yoga practices in the west, I can relate to that because it seems these practices have not been generally known to the public, even for many practicing Tibetan Buddhists. My wife is a lifetime practitioner who had never heard of Dream Yoga until I started studying it last year. She had to check with “higher authorities” to verify that indeed, we are doing something legitimate, worthwhile and special.

I liked the discussion about how to keep preparing for lucid dreaming and how it is not an all or nothing event, but that there are different types of lucidity. I know there is a chart of ranges of lucidity dreaming (Kellogg) which is not Dream Yoga per se, but may be helpful to see that degrees of lucidity is a well-recognized concept. The key point for me to remember is that Lucid Dreaming and Lucid Awakening are two sides of the same coin.
