and the this one...
Re: Lucid Waking
Seer my dear: We ARE the dreamers of dreams. So may I ask if you would care to share, your biggest dream?
The while awake lucid dream - you've always dreamed of.
Quoting: Tzar Om 56524291 Did I answer you? I had to go back and find it. Funny. I see similarities between these two threads.
Thread: Lucid Waking That is hard question to answer...one I hold close is to
one day find myself singing in the car with my child. If that day occurs, I will feel complete.
Seer, have you read the truth contest? With your science degree and interest in divinity, it's a clever read and somewhat buddha-listic in thinking. The Present (with religion) is and vivid understanding of some real truth found in that third eye. You can download a pdf file just search 'truth contest'
For me, it ignited something I've always known but had dimmed from not paying attention. And that is that everything comes from nothing, that space between is... well, 'where it's at'. The now. And now, we've got two threadtables and a microphone! :-)>
I've imagined it countless times.
I haven't read it. Sounds interesting. Thanks for the recommend.

How can everything come from nothing unless nothing is something?
I copied this from the truth contest read. (link above)
The nature of nothing: If you take away everything that is physical
(matter/energy), you’re left with nothing (no thing). Nothing is completely
empty space, absolute cold, silence and darkness. “Nothing” is infinite,
eternal and indestructible. It does not move. It does not have to; it is
already everywhere. The universe is more than 99.999% empty space,
including our own bodies.
All physical things are made of atoms which are mostly empty space.
If the nucleus was the size of a marble, the electrons would be
specks of dust a half mile away. Every physical thing has that much
empty space in it.
If you removed all the empty space from human bodies leaving only
electrons and the other subatomic particles, all seven billion human bodies
would fit in the space of a sugar cube.
True perspective: The way our solar system is shown in books does not
give you a true perspective of it. It shows the sun and the other planets
orbiting it in rings that are not to scale. They could not get it in a book if it
was to scale. The actual scale is more like this; if the sun was the size of a
basketball, the earth would be about the size of a grain of sand, and it
would be 87 feet away from the sun. Pluto, the outer most planet in our
system, would be a grain of sand over a half mile away. The next star
outside our solar system would be thousands of miles away.
It takes light that travels about one hundred and eighty-six thousand miles
a second about 8 and a half minutes to go from the sun to our planet. It will
go around the earth seven times in one second, but it takes four years to
get to the next star outside our solar system, and 2.5 million years to get to
the next galaxy.
What is faster, the speed of light or the speed of dark? Turn off the light
and try to get into bed before it gets dark. I am just kidding, but I am trying
to make a point. You cannot turn off “nothing” or do anything to it. It always
stays the same, is always everywhere all the time. If God is everywhere,
infinite, omnipresent, and eternal as the Bible states and the evidence
dictates, God has to be like nothing.
Nothing is really something.
The two two turn tables and a microphone bit and 'where it's at' comes from the Beck song...'Where's it's at'
I just changed it to two thread tables when you mentioned two of your threads have a similar feel about them.
You know, as in we are all here to talk, and share the podium and microphone. In case of any confusion
about what I posted, I thought I'd explain that. That song just came to me and it felt related while in conversation.
