A Lucid Dream is defined as a dream where you know you are dreaming and you can manipulate your dream.

A Lucid Dream is a dream in which you are aware that you are dreaming. The degree to which your Lucid Dream is lucid is dependent on how much of the dream you can remember once you awaken, how stable the dream experience is and how much control you have over the dream.

The most striking aspect of having a lucid dream is this very control. Knowing that the things going on around you are only a part of your dream is something which is quite unlike anything else.

You are in control and can decide the direction things go and other than your imagination, there is no limit to what you can do.

Can you even for one minute imagine what it feels like, bearing in mind that it not only looks and sounds like reality, but it even feels like reality. Of course the big difference is, when you have a lucid dream you know that it’s only a dream. Furthermore, you know that you cannot get injured and you know that you cannot die, so personal safety is not an issue. Of course, because there are no rules or regulations, you’re basically free to do exactly as you choose.

This is truly a virtual reality experience which is far beyond the capabilities of any computer in existence today.
