dreams

[achiles]

dreams during sleep are very exciting for me.

It was suggested by a mycotopiate that if I tell myself "I am going to have a dream tonite" (before i went to bed) that this would help me have a dream.

Well this was actually helpful! I added a little to it, and instead of praying before i go to bed i say "tonite i am going to have a dream, and it is going to be the best dream of my life." I have been having dreams almost every nite latly but then last week I probably only had 1 and was masturbating even what i would consider way to much, 3 to 5 times a day. These nights where in the day i masturbated a lot i didnt have any dreams,,, and i started not to have dreams. The last three days, with no masturbation have proven to increase my dreams 10 fold! thats right, when i dont masturbate I have dreams almost 100%. Last night I must have had 20 dreams,,,, problem is when i have many dreams its hard for me to remember them, now if i have 1-3 normally I will remember the last one. Sometimes I will move during my dream and wake up for a moment, interupting my dream, then when i fall alseep i dream again but its completly different. bottom line though the last 3 days i didnt masturbate i have had dreams every nite, so id say that 60% of the time, it works everytime, like sex panther cologne.

Which leads me to the idea that with out masturbation more dreams are possible, could the semen guys in the scrodum have an affect on dreaming?

Dunno.

But I will tell you that if you want to have dreams, one good way to do it is to set your alarm for at least an hour before you're going to get up, and do several 5 to 9 minute snoozes. Tons of dreams that way.

another thing we could relate to dreaming would be herbs.

Anyone want to discuss their herb intake?

I recently bought some muira puama. The guy in the store said it was kinda of a stimulant with relaxing effects. Bottle says "a brazilian shrub that has traditionally been used to support healthy reproductive system and to stimulate the "essence of life." first night i took it i had an insane dream and woke up hiding in a bathroom being chased by girl robots that seemed to be killing everyone. It was quite frightening.

Hey achiles,

There are many tribes of Amazon and surely within these there are variations, but of the way I am versed you abstain from sex before ceremony with Ayahuasca for days. Something along the lines of the female Ayahuasca spirit being attracted to your sexual energy.

At nothing else it shows your devotion and willingness to scrafice for the wonders of your dream. If you believe such things are connected to creatures beyond your own it's relevant

I love dreams, many of them for me are journeys.

I've had dreams where I've taken drugs and tripped and they've been so intense! Definitely odd experiences.

What I love most is when you're like 1/2 asleep and 1/2 awake. That's the best for me, I can see through my eye lids and where ever I want to go I'll go. I just tell myself and I'll travel there but yet I'm still asleep. Hard to explain haha.

I usually get into that stage when I take naps in the afternoon or if I'm in a car and take a nap.

i imagine all that masturbation
made you tired
so you slept hard, so to speak,
and didn't remember your dreams
[you always dream but don't often remember it]

That's amazing! I actually had a dream last night where I was eating blotter liquid with sugar cubes and I was really tripping in my dream - it's a weird experience for sure.

Something to do with memories perhaps?

Didn't T. McKenna say something about the DMT experience in dreams?

Shep.

Yes, he did.

Does it have to do anything with our memories? I believe it does, but then again I have never tripped on acid in reality, but I have tripped many times in my dreams. Even the last night ;]. But I tripped on mushies many times. Nevertheless, our imaginated dream world transcends our real world, that's for sure. Ever had any lucid dreams? I can walk through every wall in a LD but flying is kinda harder ;]. Dreams often remind of psychedelic experiences, cause very often in both cases we have to deal with wide-opened subconsciousness. But subconsciousness is still you - your-own-self. You can learn to integrate.

Masturbation, sex, eating and drinking, moving, talking to people, and finally taking drugs affect you in many ways. They can give negative or positive effects. But you may be independent even from that. That would be the path of Yoga. You've already begun practicing Dream Yoga, achiles .
