just wondering.
1.How many people here have actually had lds?
2.How many?
3.How stable are they? What do you use to stablize them?
4.How satisfying are they?
5.How long are they?
6.Did you get to do what you wanted?
7.How much of the population of the world actually understand how to invoke lds?
Mostly, I wanted to know #'s 1,2, and 3. Because it seems as though most people here are not really good at it, but are giving it all they’ve got.
1.How many people here have actually had lds?
Me!
2.How many?
2
3.How stable are they? What do you use to stablize them?
Uh, nothing yet. Still learning.
4.How satisfying are they?
Very, because I’m progressing.
5.How long are they?
Average of 46 seconds so far. (2 seconds and a 1 1/2 minutes)
6.Did you get to do what you wanted?
No! Not enough time!
7.How much of the population of the world actually understand how to invoke lds?
75% of them isn’t stable enough so I wake up too soon from them. The rest is ok. I use hand rubbing, touching dream objects and avoiding to gaze at one point to stabilize the dream. But this doesn’t always help…
I’m not quite satisfied in general, because I have the feeling I could have reached more in most LDs I’ve had. There are however about 10 really extraordinary LDs which were highly satisfactory and healing. But lately I haven’t experienced really interesting LDs.
On average about 4-6 minutes with a few exceptions from up to 30 minutes.
Some things yes but there’s still lots of work to do. First I need to be able to prolong LDs before I continue to explore its possibilities in depth.
Hm no idea actually but I’ll give it a try, based upon the dutch forum. There are currently about 350 dutch users. Suppose this is 1% of the total dutch LD community. That makes 35000 dutch LDers upon a population of 15 million, which is about 0.25%. If we extrapolate this to the world population of 6.3 billion, we get the following numbers: 0.25% of 6.3 billion gives almost 16 million people who have a basic understanding of LD induction. Does this sound realistic?
1.yes,me
2.two a month average:(
3.kinda stable,i usually rub my hands togheter or touch dream objects
4.depends what girls i meet there:)
5.between 5 and 30 mins
6.not yet…and i dont think i ever will…theres just too many things to do and new ideas are still coming in
7.dont know…10%?
take care
1.How many people here have actually had lds?
I have! 2.How many?
In total, my whole life… I’d say about 8. 3.How stable are they? What do you use to stablize them?
In the earlier LDs I didn’t know anything about stabilisation techniques; later on I remembered to rub my hands and spin around, but I lost the LD - it was very low level. 4.How satisfying are they?
Pretty cool. So far I’ve only had one LD that was highly lucid (most are low-level) and it was great. When I get down because I’m not having LDs I remind myself of that one for new motivation. ^^ 5.How long are they?
The longest LD I’ve had lasted about 5 to 10 minutes. 6.Did you get to do what you wanted?
I flied and stuck my hand through a wall; in another low-level LD I attempted to control soccer players during a match (was partially succesfull.) I still want to meet my spirit guide, though. 7.How much of the population of the world actually understand how to invoke lds?
Heck if I know.
1.How many people here have actually had lds?
Count me in. 2.How many?
I don’t write them all down, so I lost count quite a while ago. Usually at least a couple per week. 3.How stable are they? What do you use to stablize them?
Recently, stability hasn’t been much of an issue. The first thing I do is stand still and focus until everything’s nice and stable. 4.How satisfying are they?
Well, I don’t just sit around… 5.How long are they?
5 to 10 minutes, I guess. Sometimes longer, sometimes shorter. 6.Did you get to do what you wanted?
Usually, but then I don’t really decide what I want to do until the dream starts and I discover where I am. 7.How much of the population of the world actually understand how to invoke lds?
Not anywhere near enough.
Jack:"depends what girls i meet there:) " does that mean what I think it does?
Mystic, I wish to learn from you. you’ve had most I’ve seen so far.
I forgot to answer questions myself. How silly no?
and 13 million seems like an awful lot. Considering that (Most often) it takes a literate person and much of the world is not, I would get my figure from the worlds literate. I’d give it 6 million myself, but I don’t know.

I have
2.How many?
aproximately 30
3.How stable are they? What do you use to stablize them?
Most often not very stable. I use the “Do nothing, it’ll stabilize itself” trick.
4.How satisfying are they?
I feel good when i do them, but my power is limited.
5.How long are they?
from 3 seconds to 16 minutes
6.Did you get to do what you wanted?
not really. end too soon.
7.How much of the population of the world actually understand how to invoke lds?
.How many people here have actually had lds?
I have
2.How many?
two, but who’s counting
3.How stable are they? What do you use to stablize them?
Um, first one was pretty ok. the second one was really really good for a few minutes, then completly lost in the end
4.How satisfying are they?
REALLY satisfying, since I’ve been trying for about a year, I feel really good when I suceede!
5.How long are they?
1st was about a minute, 2nd was a few minutes
6.Did you get to do what you wanted?
I got to fly and that’s the reason I started trying to LD in the first place
7.How much of the population of the world actually understand how to invoke lds?
uh, I would say 5-10% maybe, how would I know
1.enough to make a movie, and me
2.10-15
3.its a long line of progress, so i notice most lds while im dreaming, so old memories help me stabilize, like noticing things from my childhood and such.
4.Its the best !, it makes me want to quit smoking, so you can only imagine how satisfying it is .
5.Well, since the beginning they where short, but ever since then every ld seems longer then the last one. So theoretically about 20-45 minutes, that just an estimate i dont actually time myself
6.Yes!!! Flying in about everyone of them, and playing with my surroundings too.
7.You’d be surprised
