The Tibetan's Awakening Dream And Yoga

Tibetan Dream Yoga is the original form of lucid dreaming documented for at least 1,000  years .Also known as Milam - the yoga of the dream state - it's a suite of advanced Tantric techniques. Just like science is beginning to understanding of lucid dreams, the initial aim is to awaken the consciousness in the dream state. However, as for what happens next, Tibetan lamas have more esoteric goals in mind. The Basis of Dream Yoga, Dream yoga is taught within the trance Bardos of Dream and Sleep. In the tradition of tantra, it's usually passed on by a qualified teacher, once the student has passed an initiation.

His Holiness The 14th Dalai Lama said: "Tibetan Buddhism considers sleep to be a form of nourishment, like food, that restores and refreshes the body. Another type of nourishment is samadhi, or meditative concentration. If one becomes advanced enough in the practice of meditative concentration, then this itself sustains or nourishes the body."     
Dreams are a significant part of our life. They are as real and unreal as life itself. Dreams are extremely personal - and trans personal, too. Our dreams are a reflection of ourselves: in dreams, no matter how many characters appear, we meet ourselves. Dreams are mirrors to our soul. They can help us to better understand ourselves, our world, and the nature of reality. 

Dreams introduce us to other dimensions of experience. Here, time and space are much more liquid and plastic; they can be shaped and reshaped almost at will. Dreams hint of other worlds, other lives. They are a glimpse of our afterlife. Everyone dreams, although not all dreams are remembered equally.
