The Second Cycle - Ravenna's Tasks - Controlled Dream Tuning
Добавлено: Пт фев 26, 2010 12:40 am
Welcome to the new forum!
Here Ravenna will teach you to enter the controlled dream. This topic is only for the new tasks (the new cycle which began since the 25th of February).
If you have any ideas, reports, feel free to post them in the "Your Topics" section either in the Reports topic or your own topic.
Thank you.
Ravenna:
The main problem of many dreamers who wish to work with controlled dreaming is in intended and certain entrance into a dream with exact amount of consciousness. Accordingly, we can work this aspect out in our small online training. At first we'll work upon the methodics of entering and then we'll try to increase the charge of consciousness.
The new cycle begins from the 25th of February. I'll give you easy tasks and with your wish and intent you'll understand how to enter conscious dreams without problems.

1st task.
(Author of translation - МОРКОВЬ)
-The Tinsel Task-
I suggest series of exercise that will allow you to go deeper and deeper into dreaming while keeping a certain degree of awareness. The first exercise is called “clutter”.
1) You go to bed. Get your body in position, close your eyes. Hypnogogic images appear on the internal screen – metamorphosis of dark and light shapes.
2) Concentrate your attention on a given fragment of a lighter shape. Metamorphosis keeps going on. Everything changes next to your fragment, but you fix your fragment not allowing it to change. Then you let it go and cling to the fragment of a darker shape. Don’t concentrate on it for too long. Don’t go jumping from one to another. Find your own rhythm. Under no circumstances start counting time. Your attention should be completely on the exercise. If there are some external thought occupying your head – get calm, put them aside and go back to the exercise. We need your undivided attention.
3) Repeat this exercise time and time again. Lighter fragment, darker fragment, etc… Don’t try to shape your fragments into something. Don’t put meaning into them. Even if they will start transforming into something familiar, don’t’ pay any attention. Your goal is to fixate attention on darker and lighter fragments, one after another.
4) This exercise is given until the 5th of March. When you get some experience after 2-3 days of trying, start shifting your attention to fragments farther away – first concentrate on the fragments closer to center; later shift to fragments on the edges of your visual field
5) Don’t push yourself too hard. Maximum time estimate for the exercise – 5 minutes per attempt. Maximum of 3 attempts in 24 hours. You can do just fine with one attempt .
Given exercise will help you create introductory stage of entry into the controlled dreaming. You will spend several days on it now. Later it will take you seconds. I hope this task is not too difficult for you. I also hope that despite the seeming simplicity of the exercise, you will take it seriously.

2d task
Images
The next level presumes works with images. In this task, just like in the previous one, you stay a witness but not participants of the process.
1. Start with the "tinsel" – 30 seconds, not more.
2. Let the images appear. What does "let" mean? Before something in you searched for the tinsel and asked for it and now you give inner allowance for the images to appear. Trace this type of inquiry.
(The images will appear really on the other level of perception. If you are attentive you'll see that they appear not only visually but also with a connection of some other program. This program uses scanning so called "shedule of mental images". This is a very interesting program for research but for now I only mention its existence. With some practice you'll be able to catch moments of turning the images of "on" and "off".)
3. When the images will begin to appear just slide upon them. Your drill is not to get stuck to them. The image will appear, you'll watch it and simply wait for another on. As soon as another picture appears you lightly go to it and wait for another one to arrive, watching it. Or you go to the first one. Etc.
4. Use from 3 to 5 minutes for the exercise. Maximum number of attempts is 2-3. Snoring could be a good indicator of success. If you can hear your own snoring during the exercise then you succeed. But don't intentionally check it, your attention must be full on the task. If you hear it – good, if you don't – it's not a problem.
5. This exercise is not simple. Actually, you should come close to dream on the distance of an arm and leave it. You tease dream. It moves to you but you slide over it parallely. Here you'll understand what "parallel sliding with dream" means. You have time until the 20th of March. If you succeed in this task then the magic gates of controlled dreaming shall open in front of you.
Here Ravenna will teach you to enter the controlled dream. This topic is only for the new tasks (the new cycle which began since the 25th of February).
If you have any ideas, reports, feel free to post them in the "Your Topics" section either in the Reports topic or your own topic.
