I've been experimenting with a new technique I stumbled across by accident. Lately I've spent large amounts of time looking at pictures online. For instance, pictures of mountains, rivers, landscapes. I find that if I do this for at least a couple of hours and stay up until I'm really tired, I go to bed and the pictures are still going through my mind. However, they're moving and becoming as real and vivid as a movie. At one point, the pictures became so real that I felt them forming around me and I was suddenly not in my body, but in that picture.

Of course, me being me I go "OMG WOW!" and snap out of it immediately

This also happens after long stretches of playing video or computer games. You fall asleep and the images are still moving in your mind. This is particularly true for first-person games where you don't see a little character running around, but instead you see the game as though you were looking through the character's eyes. Might be useful for you gaming addicts to experiment with this.

Back when I played WoW religiously, I often had dreams of playing it, but not being in it.

Probably because it was 3rd person when I played it.

I'm more of an aural person, though I've got a great visual imagination, I respond the most to sound. Even so, I've had the same experiences! I remember one summer night after playing Super Mario RPG all day, that I distinctly heard the music when going to bed. I thought my cousin was still up in the next room playing it! It sounded outside of, me, not in my head, and went wherever I did.

This also happened after I slept with headphones on while listening to a binaural beat. At the dinner table, I was nearly insistent that it was playing in the next room, on my computer, but alas, the device was turned off.

Me to !! I do not play video games as I find it to distracting with my projection's although I think moderation is wise. Here is what happen's with human's and why they ( games) effect us so much during our sleep , that is some of us. You have the outer shell / Aurua / Egg / Akasha/ energy body/ surrounding your physical body and once we transfer any image onto the surface of our shell's we sorta get compulsive about it and when we go to sleep we can become it or go into it over and over. The last time I played a game I had image on my shell for a week as everytime I would project I would be that darn image all night long . This is how the physical plane can be manipulated as well through the outer shell. All forces of life have to effect our outer shell before we can use our five sense's. This is where perception comes into play and why there can be two truth's . If you you ever find two truths in life pick the one most fitting for you. The outer shell is deeply effected by concentration on objects for hours , than through the matrix we enter into our fancy that sit's on our shell where on the higher astral your video game is a real event being worked out by you in your mental / emotional/ physical world thanks to the vibrating pattern on your outer shell.
Video games are fun and no big deal , bbbbbbbbuuuuuuttttt when you go to consciously astral project and lucid dream these images are going to be waiting for you to play with them in your dream just like your waking life. The negative side effect is that because you are gaining slow progress control over you inner astral body everytime you project you are going into tomorrow and making it a better world for yourself so the video games distract your attention away from fixing your problems within the context of tomorrow. As Stephen Hayes has said the Grand Master Ninga , distraction is one of the five negative element's. One day I hope you come to a realiztion that there is a force in this world that like's to keep you distracted and dreaming and not for you to wake up to your dream . Just becareful , to not dump to much onto the surface of your shell. Been there done that . :cry:

when I played Halflife 2 I had very vivid dreams of actually being
in that VR environment.

So, is this "Phasing"???

Or VR projection ?

My recent and most lucid dream yet took place in a very "DOOM" (old school, not DOOM III or like the new movie, which I haven't seen) environment. Most people would call this dream a nightmare, but for me it's more or less exciting. My subconscious rendered the monsters in a very realistic way, far more detailed than the games have come close to yet.

hey cool, when i play Counter Strike and then do energy work / try to have an obe or reach trance state I often see vivid images of the computer game, and even precise things replayed as if projected onto the back of my eyelids. weird.
