I've tried lucid dreaming and dream control.With some practice and patience,I could do it with some limited success.Astral projection,I couldn't do it to save my butt.

I would like to know who has tried these things,had success with them and what techniques worked.

I've heard that Sharper Image had an electronic device that you could insert a picture and attach the device to a type of cap or something and supposedly you would dream about whatever was on the picture.Never saw the thing so I'm wondering if it was just one of the many urband legends.

What are the spiritual and religious aspects of astral projection?Some say it's a safe and liberating experience,others warn of dangers and occult trappings.
