From: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com [mailto:FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com] Who thinks of lucid dreaming as "mystical" or "spiritual"? I don't think I've ever heard that one before. A lot of spiritual folks think of it that way. First reference to it I heard was in Carlos Casteneda’s books. Often discussed in talks at the Science and Non-Duality conference. MUM professor Charles Alexander (now deceased) did some research on it. It may be associated with witnessing sleep. Not to mention real Native American traditions and Tibetan Buddhist traditions, in which lucid dreaming is taught as a useful technique for preparing to transit the Bardo between death and rebirth. Methinks Judy doesn't know about any of this because she's never been able to control her dreams. Heck, she can barely control herself in the waking state. :-) :-) :-) ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <turquoiseb@...> wrote : Another fascinating article presenting a different way of looking at experiences that many would call "mystical" or "spiritual."
