We in Russia are engaged in the realized (lucid) dreams.
I in this business have stopped at the Meeting with other person which at that time while I in the realized (lucid) dream - am awake, or at least sleeps.
There are meanwhile only attempts of attempt to meet the real person. These are the third Gate dreams on Carlos Castaneda. I try them to overcome.
Castaneda is a wonderful shaman to study! I hope you'll tell us more!
Europeans are so much more open to the dream world, spirit and nature. We are slowly making progress in this country.
I have a friend from Sweden who converses with deceased loved ones regularly. Once she tripped over her dress and said "Just like a true Viking, I'm drunk!" <img src="/images/graemlins/viking.gif" alt="" />
