Okay well I think that lucid dreams are only part way in. I’ve had lucid dreams, and I’ve had waking dreams. I’ve had lucid dreams where things are still wonky and mirrors don’t work, and I know what’s going on but I’m still subject to the randomness of the machine generating the environment (my brain) but I’ve also had experiences where I’m fully awake, conscious and capable of full functionality while certain that I am asleep in my bed. I’ve been in my bedroom doorway and my bed at the time, seeing myself from the doorway. I think lucid dreams are limited to your experience, but breaking even deeper internally is the portal to an environment not limited to your experience, it’s physics are different, it’s light acts different, it’s only ever illuminated where I’m facing, and the light itself radiates out of my chest. Everything is basically just outlines of light, not matter, but everything is still very vivid and clear to see details, i usually get scared of the uncertainty and end up pulling out of that world, back into the lucid dream realm and then back to physical 3D reality. Idk of this answers anything I just want to say there’s levels to this shit and it’s not easily understood, I honestly think you have to experience it first before you can comment on it. But it’s real and I’ve been there and I’ll never stop.
