He had this Eureka moment in the shower realizing the fact.

I‘m refering the title with „control“ However, bringing thoughts & feelings into the direction you like to, compared to be just overwhelmed, is a sort of control.

• Meditation is one way of getting control of your brain.

• Yoga and Tai Chi is a way of control your brain by focusing on your body.

• Recite a mantra is another way.

• Daily routines is also an auto-pilot way of getting control of your brain. (This one is good if you have trouble getting asleep(

You can train those methods consciously and understand the mechanics of how the controls work. Once understood and footpaths set (meditation, daily routines), you can switch between these controls if needed. Or force a thought reset (mantra)

It’s not a secret and known since ages. It’s just that people are too lazy to train. And may be prefer the comfortable auto-pilot way of living.

Still - take with care. Lost one friend to psilos & Lsd (he couldn’t adjust to reality anymore), another one lost to alcohol and the last one for all the other mixed shit. Waiting for the fourth lost soul.

Not advocating being sober - I‘m older than 40 and happy that weed is legal in Germany now and sometimes a smiley pill. I‘m just saying - take it with care.

As for lucid dreams not having body feelings, being completely produced by the mind? I guess I’d like to see a source on that.

Btw I said you that you aren’t feel the REAL body senses in your lucid dreams. For sure, one can dream/ hallucinate some. Though it’s rarely standards such as a foot on ground, a hand on door knob or such. That’s too boring. It’s more about flying, diving, running, and so on.

I’m not sure what all your other points are about. What are you trying to say or prove? Do you second the former threads argument, that

‘reality’ is just the shared aspects of our hallucincations that we agree on.

I do not support this view. Reality and interactions with reality is real and not hallucinated.

Nice world. Please try exploring interaction with people in real life. Somehow you need it, don’t you think?

This view is outdated and goes back to Descartes‘ view out of the window. No, we‘re not in our head observing the outer sphere.

We‘re within the sphere/ world and interact through our body. We influence and got influenced. We position ourselves by our body movements in the world. There is no such thing as we‘re just our mind. We are a mind-body-thing.

In lucid dreams there‘re no body feelings as it’s in your mind only. That is btw. one of the control mechanisms :to check if your body sleeps but your mind not. If you don’t feel the bed and duvet on your skin. Another check is writings. There‘re never the same, they aren’t consistent.
