Consort practice continues to prove fruitful despite several missed days; lots of lifelong content arising for observation and processing. The tone of each sit varies quite a bit from session to session, which makes the practice vitally compelling regarding off-cushion gains.

Currently absorbed in Tibetan Yogas of Dream and Sleep, which ranks highly among the best dharma books I've read this year.

Having taken a break from intoxicants in the last few weeks for clarity of mind and to better attend to my dream life (hence reading TYoDaS) I had a strong negative reaction to alcohol and pot over the weekend, even in very small doses. I didn't experience craving at all in the interim, but was curious to see how I would react while out socializing – having somatic awareness severely compromised was highly undesirable, and am thankful for this understanding for the sake of practice and health. Not that I'm writing them off entirely, it's just ideal to further disembed.

I'm excited to be be attending a Red Tara empowerment this Sunday, which marks my "official entry" into Vajrayana at large – will report impressions next week.

"The dream is short and life is long, besides that there is no difference. They are both products of the same Mind." - Sri Ramana Maharshi.

Many Tibetan yogis who have mastered lucid dreaming and dream yoga describe life and dreams as a constant show, passing before a non-attached spectator. For them, the mastery of lucidity is not for dream control, it is about maintenance of lucidity in the non-dream states of deep sleep; what they refer to as "The Clear Light of Consciousness." It is a mastery in knowing the mind, a non-ego attached ball of conscious awareness devoid of thought and sensory input. You have been given a gift, why not use it to better understand what human consciousness is? I recommend reading "The Tibetan Yogas of Sleep and Dream" by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche.

Conversely, if you seek to have the dreams retreat, the only real solution I know of that still provides a restful sleep is cannabis consumption before bed. It impairs deep REM sleep and will prevent you from having anything resembling a deep dream.

I've been reading this book which recommends specific forms of it as part of a comprehensive lucid dreaming and spiritual path. However I haven't tried the exercises yet. It's a lot to take in and differs greatly from "secular" lucid dreaming practices.
