i remember a time when i was about 7 years old when i discovered Lucid Dreaming.
there was a series of dreams where i was learning to fly, and for weeks maybe months i couldn't wait to go to sleep to continue my adventures. my flying skills progressed from faltering running starts, shaky flying and falling to finally being in full control able to fly at will anywhere my mind could imagine. these dreams were very realistic. i also learned i could change the atmosphere or environment of my dreams, so if i was having a bad dream i could switch the channels until i found one i could enjoy. i discovered i could easily make friends in my dream world, thus avoiding a nightmare with whatever scary dream beasts i.e. a ferocious lion encountered.

Symbolically, the world is the realm in which a state of existence is
unfolded (25), comprising many component parts adhering together. Used in the
plural, the term pertains, in a sense, to space-symbolism, but the ‘worlds’ are
really only different modes of the spirit (26). The explanation of the cosmic and
moral significance of the three worlds (the infernal, the terrestrial and the celestial) is to be sought in the symbolism of level. The inferior must not always be
equated with the subterranean, for, in megalithic cultures, the latter was usually
located high up, or in the hollow interior of mountains (conceived as the dwellingplace of the dead). Guénon has pointed out that references to the ‘subterranean
world’ are found in a large number of cultural traditions, in which the ‘cult of the
cavern’ or cave is linked with that of the ‘centre’. One must also bear in mind the
equation of the cavern with the cave of the heart, the latter being considered as the
Centre of being or the Egg of the World (28).
