My lucid dreaming audio messages played as expected last night. I only remember one. The message was being spoken by a character in the dream!
In previous nights, when I heard the recorded message and focused towards the physical, what I was doing a moment ago in the dream seemed distant, on the other side of a barrier.
Same Old Song: I think this was likely due to the fact that I was getting used to hearing the messages. The MetaDreamer focus, finding them unremarkable now, chose to preserve my focus in the dream by redirecting them into the dream context.
Across the Border: The MetaDreamer can switch our attention across the borders between selves. It’s like tuning a radio. From any one frequency, the others feel distant and unreal. If we can tune them out so that they don’t exist to us, how real can they be? The only constant is consciousness — the one listening.
