Balancing Opposing Realities in Lucid Dreaming: Navigating the dialectical nature of consciousness

🛌💭Lucid Dreaming opens a gateway to a realm where paradoxes thrive.


🌌 In this workshop clip, I dove into the profound dialectical tensions you’ll need to balance to advance your practice of lucid dreaming. We dissected the interplay between polarities found in the dreamworld, such as surrendering to the flow of the dream vs. actively controlling its course, observing the dream vs participating and interacting with it, what is considered “me” vs. “not me”, being awake vs. being asleep, the meaning vs. meaninglessness of dream content, and more. 🧩💡


👁️🔄 Discovering the delicate balance in these dichotomies can spark a creative synergy that forms a bridge toward higher, non-dual states of consciousness.
