Exploring Lucid Dreaming and the Four Realities: A Personal Journey
Lucid dreaming, a fascinating phenomenon where one becomes aware that they are dreaming while still in the dream state, can be both exhilarating and enlightening. In this article, we delve into personal experiences and explore the concept of different realities that the human mind can experience.
A personal lucid dreaming experience
One of the most memorable experiences for me while lucid dreaming was when I found myself swinging like Spider-Man, using my imagined grappling hooks to traverse a vast and vibrant forest. It was a moment of sheer joy and creativity, merging the realms of fiction and reality in a way that felt incredibly real. This experience has ignited my desire to master lucid dreaming, exploring more of the boundless possibilities that lie within the dream world.
The Four Realities and Human States
According to some philosophical and esoteric beliefs, there are four distinct realities or states of human consciousness. Let's explore these in detail:
1. Waking Reality (WAKING-R)
In the Waking Reality, self-expression is primarily through the physical body and perceptions oriented towards the physical world. Here, the awareness of the self is limited, often awakened only when faced with challenging stimuli or situations.
2. Dream Reality (DREAMING-R)
The Dream Reality, characterized by REM sleep, is a state where the mind constructs its own reality. In this state, the self-consciousness is unaware of its true nature. It's important to note that the physical body does not leave the physical realm during dreams.
3. Sleep Reality (SLEEPING-R)
The Sleep Reality, or deep sleep without REM, is a state where the awareness of waking or dreaming is lost. During this non-recollectable state, the self-consciousness is still not aware of itself.
4. Samadhi (INTUITION AP OBE)
The Samadhi state represents a heightened awareness where the self-consciousness is fully aware of its own existence and possibly of other realities, such as the physical world or beyond. This is considered a highly advanced state, verifiable through physical manifestations.
Exploring the Causes of Dream Contents
There are various triggers that can influence the content of dreams. These include:
In-take: Food, drink, clothing, environmental changes, storms, temperature changes, and eclipses can all impact dream content. Physical Body Conditions: The state and health of the physical body during sleep can also play a role in dreams. Imaginary Thinking: Lucid dreaming, where the individual is aware and can control the dream, is a form of imaginary thinking within the dream state. Higher Beings: Some consider dreams containing messages from higher spiritual entities as true dreams, where the dreamer conveys information to others.A Personal Experience of Lucid Existence
One remarkable account of lucid dreaming comes from an immortal sorcerer who existed for seven thousand years. Despite not remembering most of their time, they could sense the profound age they carried within themselves, feeling as though the weight of the world had increased. They recall their journey through mountainous terrains and the sacred act of slaying dragons, wielding a sword of light. At the end of their journey, they encountered a profound harmony—voices raining down from the heavens, telling them to set aside their sword and join the celestial choir. After a moment of hesitation, they did, and their journey continued beyond the physical realm, becoming part of the fabric of existence.
Conclusion
Lucid dreaming and the exploration of different realities offer a window into the vast capabilities of the human mind. Understanding and mastering these states can lead to profound personal growth and a deeper connection with both the physical and non-physical worlds. By delving into the four realities and recognizing the various triggers of dream content, we can better understand and harness the power of our dreams.
