" Just as dream content is not thought to be different from the dreamer who creates it, so also appearances are not different from mind. They are the very mind as it emanates.
Tashi Namgyal Tibetan Yogi"
Can I change my mind?
As in, can I change my âmind as it emanatesâ?
Permanently?
Ok, so January 11 Whisper of Wisdom - - - (just catching up on email to fall behind again)
The sailor does not control the sea, nor does the lucid dreamer control the dream. Like a sailor, lucid dreamers manipulate or direct themselves in the larger expanse of dreaming; however, they do not control it. Lucid dreaming appears to be a co-created experience.

I believe dreams to be co-created because one dream a year-ish ago that definitely was not my dream material. I know my neighborâs history and it fit her more than anything Iâve ever conjured up in my head.
Toasters where genitals would beâŚshe was an abused child with mom and grandma looking the other way. Now sheâs MPP and schizophrenia - not my diagnoses. She let slip some keys that linked it all for me.
Sheâs got 3 full-on baby seats stacked in boxes in her bedroom, and taking prenatal vitamins for triplets that have been âcrypticâ since a second cycle of abuse in her life happened. Sheâd âcome toâ and could only figure date rape drugs were slipped to her. But after hearing more, itâs like her split took over for a few weeks and âact outâ (my adopted sister did a lot of that, not even realizing what she was doing, itâs real, and sad). Sheâd finally âcome backâ after acting out for week+ spans. As she wasnât there, all she knew was âthe Hollywood mafiaâ was abusing her sexually. To hear the confusion as she tried to figure it out - was heartbreaking.
(I donât even like kids, but Iâm a bitch-ass Mamma Bear when I hear things happen to children because it changes the course of their lives)
So these triplets were âdroppingâ summer 2019. They still are, and now sheâs âshowingâ. She let slip she was eating a lot and had to really control her sugar intake now. Also - she just turned 57.
Iâm not one to judge anotherâs reality - been there done that with the Medical Ivory Towers of âEvidence Based Lies of Omissionâ - just blinded by their godhood that they couldnât see the evidence sitting right on their exam table. These triplets are linked to quoted bible verses she speaks with anger. Like Samuel L. Jackson in Pulp Fiction, right before he shoots someone.
So thereâs that kind of energy across the hall, and down the hall, and on the 3rd floor, andâŚyou get it.
So if a Master says âI had a dream the other night thatâŚâ - what was the dream? He was likely adept at both Dream and Sleep Yoga, and practicing throughout. Thoroughly shinjanged, the master wouldnât be bothered by the whispering mind. (mindâs a roaring waterfall)
Which brings up the question of whether Karma is created during lucid dreams. Iâve heard the answer both Yes and No. I get why both answers apply, and the discrepancy was probably in response to the questioner at some woo-woo level.
Back to the quote, Iâve also heard the answer âno, dreams are self-contained.â Again, I suppose that pertains to oneâs level of practice or permeability.
(pretty sure Iâm cursed, if anyone wants to do an exorcismâŚ? Too many âthat canât be!â things happen that derail getting to an important vow ceremony on time, for example. Like grimlins saw me coming and rolled out the strip of tacks which blew my tire - making me late, when I busted chops to be at least early! Why spiderwebs covering my front door, yet all the neighbors were simply dusty? - oh yeah, my unit was stuffed with mold. I still insist my refuge name be changed to âshitty first impressionsâ because of these mishaps, despite my preparation and best efforts.)
Just spouting off some conflicty things Iâve heard, and âworking it out - out loud.â
In a mood.
