“Bit by bit, lucid dreaming was reconfiguring my core assumptions about the nature of dreaming and, in turn, the nature of reality and the ego self. I began to grasp something hard to accept, hard to admit. Like Copernicus, who realized that the Earth was not the center of the universe, I now suspected that the waking ego self was not the center of one’s self or even the center of conscious awareness. The waking ego self, it seemed to me, was part of a much larger interrelationship of conscious awareness. Though my waking life revolved around my ego, emotions, and personal concerns, in lucid dreaming, I discovered a much larger sphere of influence - the so-called unconscious that actually seemed very conscious, very responsive, and very much alive.”

Mind fucking blown. I have never come across a piece of literature that illustrates the possibilities of lucid dreaming as clearly as this book. It explains ways of exploring dreams that I have yet to come across anywhere else. Not only is it entertaining, but you can see how the author goes far beyond some meaningless dream manipulation into exploring the beyond. I highly recommend this to anyone seriously interested in lucid dreaming. If you can’t purchase it, there is a PDF in the link below.
