Its weird that realizing "i must be dreaming" doesn't necessarily bring any profound insight to my dream-self. Whats weird though, is it does affect my death mentality. I usually do realize that I am safe from death in my dreams.
I assume you guys use this understanding to fly all over the place, and do whatever you want. It seems like the logical conclusion. But I never actually use this mentality, even though it is usually present. Usually, I'll still be at the whim of my dream, and act accordingly; Only when I die, Im just like "O well, here we go again"

Well there are different levels of lucidity. Sometimes i know im in a dream, but the dream is controlling me. Other times, I know im in a dream, and I control the dream.
keep it in your mind before bed, that "if I[you] realise that I am dreaming, then I will have the control". Sometimes just having that initial thought in your head helps you become more lucid.

The Cypher said:
What's always interested me is the relationship between lucid dreaming and enlightenment in waking life. If becoming lucid in your dream means that you're becoming aware of the illusion that is the dream, and becoming enlightened in waking life (through meditation or psycheelics) is essentially the same concept, then what if you were able to become lucid while dreaming, and then enter into a state of enlightenment?
Wow!! what an intense thought.
Has anyone ever done a drug in their dream? I remember once doing a certain drug in a dream before I had tried it in real life. The rush I got from it in the dream was far greater than what i got from the actual drug.
