Trick for gaining clear sight in OBEs

[upstream]

I've found it works very well and exactly as you explained. Another method I like to do is taking off some ad hoc sun glasses. By doing it in a row it could improve my sight at times when some belief conflicts is supposed to woork in the background, preventing clear vision. My all time favorite: focusing on the tiny wrinkles on my palm. This even would increase the level of my awareness. Unfortunately I can't get this methods to work in the darkness I experience after a regular dream separation. I suppose the reason that REM-sleep needs time to start up.

Another method to get lost vison back is to trying to find the most brightest object through the darkness. It works only in projections that are real. I know those places are real because they have a 3D structure. They are exist not just before my dream eyes, because I could observe their structure by flying through them. Before I fly through a building I create a "spora" by occasionally focusing on my palm. This would stabilize flying and prevent the shocking sight of hitting into walls.

Those "real" projections are often dark like wearing sun-glasses. Usually I loose my sight in a similar manner like having some sun-glasses that getting more and more darker (in 1-2 sec). I could get my vison back by focusing on the most brightest object within this brief period. However, this is something that doesn't work in lucid dreams. For example, a couple of times I looked into the Sun only to woke up pronto. I suspect that my brain forced to use up all its 5-Meo-DMT the substance that responsible for brightness and visuals in dremaing. I could stabilize a LD (a freshly-started REM-sleep) by flying progressively and slowly to more brighter places.

In one of this morning's OBESs I found a trick for gaining sight. All I did was use my hands to pry my eyes open and suddenly I could see perfectly!

I think this works well because you're being very clear about what you want to have happen. It's like using a pair of scissors to open a dream paper package rather than trying to imagine it opening by itself. Just imagining it opening on its own is not very effective because you don't have much real-life experience with packages opening by themselves and so it's hard to be clear about what you're intending to happen.

However if you imagine an invisible pair of scissors cutting the paper, then you're using well-defined life experience to be very clear about the result you desire.

So, if you use your hands to open your eyes up it should work pretty well to gain sight. To be clear about it, you might want to practice, while awake, reaching up and opening your closed eyes with your hands so you are sure to be clear about what you're doing when in the dre

You may want to do NEW on your hands while awake so that you have lots of awareness of their shape as well.
