    Dear Dustin,

    >> Hi, I have been lucid dreaming for a couple years but I can't seem to
    get out of my "bedroom." I.e. The common launching point for the lucid
    dream is the bedroom, and I typically wander around my house(which
    closely resembles my physical house.) But it seems as though nothing
    constructive is coming from these sessions, other than a slow
    development of the dreaming body. It seems as though there is a mental
    block that is preventing me from changing the scenery to anything
    besides my house. <<

    A lucid dream state is still a dream state and the dream state is
    defined by the fact that it occurs within the terrain of the dreamer's
    own psyche. The dreamer's own home is perhaps the most common dream
    symbol of the dreamer's psyche as a whole.

    >> Ideally I would like to go into the 8 temples from the astral-mental
    state of a lucid dream. Once I "accidently" came across one of the
    temples in my dreaming, but I would like to do this willfully. How
    would one accomplish this feat? Is it practical to experience the
    meditation as if it were real, by going there from a lucid dream (no
    awareness of the physical body)? Or is better to settle with a mental
    projection through the physical body? <<

    I suggest that you do the 8T as I've laid it out. This will incorporate
    the Temples into the terrain of your own psyche and thus render (a
    version of) them accessible from the dream state. But this will only be
    a *version* of the Temples since the Temples themselves exist
    independent of the psyche. In other words, the Temples themselves in
    their wholeness are not accessible while one is dreaming. To reach the
    true Temples requires a non-dream state and a journey outside the
    confines of one's own psyche.

    My best to you,
    :) Rawn Clark
