You quoted my description of a dream taking place in the unconscious mind, which is different than becoming lucid in a dream state.
I most often "snap" into lucidity when something "isn't right" in a dream. It seems to be a form of defense through increased awareness. When *most* people become lucid in a dream, they just fly around or conjure up people to have sex with. This is indeed pretty useless entertainment.
I can tell you from direct experience that there *is* value to be had with dream lucidity, if one goes far enough with the process. As an analogy, the internet is useless if you only visit celebrity gossip sites and don't know that other websites exist. Then one day you find a link to "The Wave" series, and the internet suddenly becomes very useful!
A lucid dream state can be a springboard to a true "out of body" experience. It's a matter of focusing the mind into the density that one wants to visit since you're already "out" of your body. It's not easy, but it is possible and I have done so and had very useful encounters with STO beings as a result. I have also used this out of body state to journey deep into my sub-conscious, to commune with my "higher" self, etc.
It seems to me that the quote you gave from the Cs about lucid dreaming could use more explanation. Maybe they were addressing Laura specifically. Maybe an STS being managed to "hack" the signal so as to divert future readers from a practice that could lead a person to discovering the STS dream-machinations. Maybe the signal was perfect, the answer was for EVERY person on earth and they're right that I'm just wasting my time. Of course, I'm asleep and dreaming anyway, so it's not like hours of productive waking work time is lost.
To be accurate, the amount of time where I am doing classical "lucid dreaming" is *very* small. If I do become lucid, I normally leave the dream state and go for a full out of body experience beyond the dream realm.
I will rephrase your first question to remove the inherent bias present in it:
"How has having more dream recall and awareness that most people helped me in the waking world?" I will answer in list format:
Deeper self-awareness.
Contact with benevolent STO beings.
Learning how STS beings manipulate humans both in dreams and while awake.
Becoming aware of information that I had been consciously ignoring.
Receiving "status updates" on my spiritual growth, physical health, etc.
Learning about spiritual insights from my Inner Self.
Discovering aspects of energetic structures and the STS control grid that surround this planet.
You also wrote,
"One can easily become entrapped within one's own subjective belief system and fantasies, which may be one of the reasons why you would have dreams of feeling "imprisoned". Also, if it is really so that you're being attacked, know that your (emotional) investment towards those attacks and the whole dream experiment, could be the very thing they'd want from you."
Nearly all of the prison dreams involve me working to get one or more people out of the prison. I used to think they were only symbolic, but the more details I recollected, the more it appeared that these dream prisons are a feature of the STS control grid. I had an opportunity to question a guard in one of these dream labs/prisons, and while "it" was evasive, I did glean some useful information. I of course am fully cognizant that it could simply be symbolic, and I am working to gather more information on that front.
As to my investment towards defending from attacks, yes, the STS critters love to poke and prod to see how we react to our captivity. They're playing mind games with me and I know this, so I do my best to feed them as little as possible, as well as "claw back" anything that they have taken. They don't seem to like that very much. Maybe I'm antagonizing them... <humor> "but moooooommmmm they started it!"
</humor>
It is my current theory that all humans on Earth are currently captured in an elaborate STS control grid, awake or asleep. Further, when we are asleep, we are in many ways MORE vulnerable to their mind-control techniques. Because I resist them, and have my whole life, they pay extra attention to me. I would rather that this was not the case, but this is the subjective fact of my experience.
It's not objective reality, because you and most others don't interact with the STS beings the same way that I do. However, many other people do share very similar experiences, although some are much weirder than my own. Perhaps we all share the same delusions, or perhaps we are simply more aware of what is happening in these "energetic realms" than those who haven't had such experiences, or have had them but cannot recall.
I am almost done with the first Wave book, but I keep getting pulled into reading the many fascinating threads on this board.
I also would like to apologize if this thread is somewhat tedious for you all. It wasn't my intent to spark a debate about what will always be my subjective experiences. Maybe one day technology will allow us to peer into the dream world and record what happens there for others to observe and analyze. Until then, I will carry on the best I can each night and work to be the best version of myself that I can be while awake.
Peace,
MOE
