522-OB: Buddho breath in bedroom

 

7.57 am

I did the breath “Buddho” meditation all night long to fall asleep. Somewhere in the middle of the night, while I was counting the breath with “Buddho,” I felt the vibration and the phase state spontaneously arising as I counted and breathed. I just let it develop.

As I continued counting the breath and repeating “Buddho,” the vibration eventually faded. Then, toward morning, I was still doing the same meditation and fell into a very deep, easy, fuzzy feeling.

I spontaneously felt my fingers rubbing and experienced the familiar rubbery sensations. So I continued rubbing my fingers and also touched the mattress, then intended to put my feet on the bedroom floor.

I stood up and managed to remain standing. I tried to touch the curtain and continued to feel the rubbery sensations. Then I tried to walk toward the bookshelf in my bedroom. And the dream faded.

521-LD:Wrong outdoor of house

 

6.52 am

During the day, I practice dream yoga, recognizing waking reality as the dream state.

I had a dream where I recognized the dream state.

My wife and I were conducting some business in a terrace house. After we concluded the business, we walked out the door. Instead of finding the usual expected scenery, we found something different. I think we expected to see our car or something like that. But instead, we walked out and saw a completely different scene.

Immediately, I recognized that we were in a dream and became lucid. WP panicked and walked across the road. It was already night.

I said, “Don’t run there. Come back here. I will tell you how to get out of this dream.”

I held her close to me and knew that everything would be fine. I kept still. I knew that we would somehow return to the other side of the outdoor area where it was supposed to be.

After a while, the dream faded, and I woke up.

So I actually recognized the dream state and managed to wake up.

520-OB-Touch walls walking to bedroom door

 

10.10 am

Lying on my left side, I was going in and out, in and out, of several dreams. Earlier, I had formed the intention that whenever I came out of a dream, I would come out slowly and not move — to keep still and exit the dream consciously.

This time, after coming out of a dream, I kept still and did not move. I tried to exit gently. I felt the phase state was there, and I managed to imagine rubbing my fingers. I then rubbed my fingers and heard a familiar rubbery sound.

I put my palms together and rubbed them, feeling the same rubbery sensation. I rubbed my forearms on both sides, then rubbed my face and my body. After that, I rubbed the mattress on my right and on my left. Then I confidently swung my feet over and placed them on the floor of my bedroom.

I stood up easily. I rubbed the left window, felt the curtains, and rubbed my bed on the right. I walked toward the bookshelf, then rubbed the floor of my bedroom and felt it clearly.

The objects were still a bit blurred, and I intended for them to become clearer. I probably should have done more peering. Instead, as I touched each object, I told myself what I was doing — touching the window, touching the bed, touching the floor.

I turned right and walked toward the bedroom door, continuing to rub objects along the way — the floor and the left wall. When I reached the bathroom, I touched the right side and then the left wall. Just as I was about to reach the door, I think I slipped into a kind of sleepy, dreamy state.

My mind became too drowsy, and I fell into sleep. There was a loss of lucidity, and the experience faded away.

519-LD: Taking selfie with wife in legal firm

 

10:05 am

I practised oneness to fall asleep.

I was working in a legal firm and Wai Peng also. I was sitting at a corner table.

It was a huge office, and on the right of my table was an artificial grass patch.

I read the newspaper, Times, to understand some legal terminology.

And I put the paper on the grass, and then it was time to go for lunch.

And the back door opened, and there was a beautiful, long corridor of outdoors.

It was very surreal, and I was with Wai Peng.

So then I held the camera up to take a photo, a selfie.

But then the...

The aspect ratio of the screen was wrong, and I reset it.

But I couldn't quite get it right.

And then, suddenly, I realized this could be a dream.

I told Wai Peng, did you know that this is a dream?

And why? Because all the...

The dream world was like fuzzy and hazy.

So realistic.

And then I tried to adjust it and go somewhere to take a photo.

And she was walking away.

And the dream faded.

518-LD: With bicycle in N-Park lift with no buttons

 

8:56 am

I was practicing oneness, and I dreamed that I entered a lift with a bicycle, pushing the bicycle.

It's an N-park lift, and in the middle of the lift, I wanted to press the button, but there was no buttons to go up or down.

And then I felt a sense of rising panic, and then suddenly, I realized that this could be a dream. It was so real like I was actually there. And become lucid.

And I was so relieved, like that, I rubbed my hands, and then the dream faded.

517-OB: Office interview after exiting Regal hotel

 

9.50am

I was lying down in my hotel room, bed Regal Hotel, and I in and out of several dreams.

And finally, as I came out of one of the dreams, I remembered to do the exit technique.

By rubbing my fingers, and I continue to rub my palms together, rub my forearms, rub my body, and all the way down to my legs.

And then I rubbed the mattress, and then intended to swing my leg over and step on the floor.

And I did manage to stand up, and I tapped the floor, the marble floor, and then I felt the floor clearly.

And it was clear, I could see everything in the room, in the hotel room clearly.

And I also breathe in the smell, and also hear to increase lucidity, using all the senses.

I then walked to the door of the hotel room, and opened the door, and walked out.

And the moment I walked out, it was a different scenery.

There was a long corridor in white colour, it was very clear.

And in white colour, I walked to the end of it, and entered another room.

And inside I saw an office with tables and chairs, but there was nobody.

I was looking for people to interact with, then I walked into the next room again.

There was again nobody, and then I walked into the third room.

At this time, there were people, there were staff working, office workers, many of them, men and women.

And I appeared to be the boss, and I introduced myself.

I am Dr. Chin, and I can hear myself clearly.

And I then asked one of them, a lady, could I talk to you in private in my office.

Then she followed me, but I didn't know where my office was, so I just walked around, and found an empty room.

But there was a guy inside, and I said, please leave, I need to have an interview in private.

And then he left, and then she sat down on a chair, and I sat on beside her, and I ask do you want to

have interview with me. She looked away and said yes. I asked again, you want to have interview with me.

So I spoke to her and said I need to have resume.

And the dream faded.

516-OB: Talking to Chinese lady buying hawker food

 

9.40 am

I was dreaming of riding my motorcycle on Penang Road and then I became lucid and knew this is a dream. And then I woke up in bed in my hotel room, Regal Hotel.  I did the exit technique by rubbing my fingers together and then rubbing my hands and I also rubbed the bed frame.

And then I had the intention to stand up on the floor beside my bed. So I swung my legs over and stood up and then I felt my feet being planted firmly on the cold marble floor.I rubbed my palms on the ground to increase the lucidity. I could see the objects in the room clearly.

I then stood up and touched the objects and also the wall. And then I went to the window of my hotel room. I pulled open the blinds and I could see outside there were people standing outside. I opened the window and I climbed out of the room through the window to get out of the room. And in front there was an uncle and I tapped his back and I asked him: Are you OK? And he said OK.

And there was an Chinese girl wearing yellow t-shirt - waiting buying food from a hawker. And I spoke to her. She said she already had children. As I spoke to her - the dream faded.
