Method for Reading Texts in Lucid Dreams

Preamble

1 2

I would like to inform our friends about a method for reading texts in Lucid Dreams. Texts, as you know, can be in familiar or unfamiliar languages. As it turns out, any can be read.

Initially, I tried to use a speed-reading method, specifically "reading" an entire page at once. This is a promising method. Although it is as difficult to learn as, say, recapitulation. It is described in several books, and you only need to enter a search engine and look up speed-reading.

Since I work in a library archive and am involved in book restoration, you can understand that the primary subject and theme of my dreams are books. I see them almost every night, and often turn to them in Lucid Dreams.

So, at first, it seemed to me that the speed-reading method would be quite adequate. It accelerates our ability to capture recorded information. With certain skills, reading a page can be reduced to a second, and I thought such speed would be sufficient to contend with the elusive nature of dreamed texts.

It was almost enough. Interestingly, my efforts produced a secondary effect. I became acquainted with the "dream voice." SI asserts that it is an Inorganic Being. Perhaps. The "dream voice" catches any desire of the dreamer and provides it to them (with humor reminiscent of the cartoon 'Vanya in the Thrice-Tenth Kingdom'). One only needs to get engrossed in work, get carried away, and accidentally think of something (say, of ladies), and immediately one receives it. But this can be tolerated.

How to Work with the "Dream Voice"

You see the text, shift your gaze above it, allowing the "voice" to become your reader and commentator. Let the text remain continuously within your field of vision, but under no circumstances fixate on it. Our fixation begins to "decode" it, and without a correct set of references, the decoding proceeds in circles, causing letters to dance, change, and yield no meaning. You look above the text and listen to the explanation of the "dream voice." Then, before your eyes, above the text, a "window" opens where the text's visualization begins. Here, too, there is a danger of fixating on the spectacle. Be "balanced." Divide your attention into three parts: without fixating on the text, observe the text; focus the main part of your attention on the "voice"; and with a peripheral glance, observe the image. All of this will give you complete (indescribably complete) information about the text.

Next arises the question of how to transfer the translated and assimilated text from a Lucid Dream into real life. Here, too, speed-reading and memory development methods are helpful. Engage with the latter two, and you will not regret it. You will achieve an enormous qualitative leap not only in the practice of reading dreamed books but also within Lucid Dreams themselves.
