I'm interested in your definition of lucid in the contexts you describe here. I thought lucid meant just being aware that one is actually dreaming. That alone doesn't stop reification. Something else is happening in your "lucid" if reification is dissolving. Are you aware of whathttps://twitter.com/anyane/status/995774013770100737 …

So a question here is: Do you have any sense of awareness of "other" with the other being a blankness perhaps (ie a sense of duality), or do you have the sense that your awareness is non-dual with the "non-displaying" as perhaps an "awareClear" sense of awareness?
Not sure wym by ‘awareClear’, but there isn’t a dualistic split. The duality in lucid dreams is a gateway though eg: meeting the gaze of a dream character, you see ‘their’ awareness and ‘your’ awareness is exact same. Recognition is the catalyst for dream appearance dissolving.

Doesn’t have to be a character though - even just something like a nimitta/light as you’re falling asleep can do the same thing. It’s good that sleep practices are becoming more commonly talked about - because this stuff happens naturally anyway. Silly to ignore it for secrecy.

Important point of clarification: we should remember how far cognitive bias goes. Just because something walks and talks like non-dual awareness doesn’t make it non-dual awareness. The subtlety of mind states is v.nuanced, and ignorance is deep. I have much to learn on this.

1) See it's display. 2) Look in the Clear. 3) Notice awareness. 4) Identify with this awareness. The Clear and appearances seem other. 5) Immerse awareness in Clear. You find Awareness becomes the Clear while remaining aware. You experience being non-dual aware-Clear-Displaying.
