Here is an interesting product…
The Upstate Dream Institute offers herbal an supplement “Dream Boost” designed as “an all natural herbal sleep and dream enhancer”. Please note: I have not tried this product, nor do I endorse it. However, I am interested in hearing about the effects of anyone who might have tried using it, or other similar products…
Aside from the intensity of dreams, is there reason to believe that that *content* of the dreams and lucid dreams would be fundamentally different? What has been learned that would not have been otherwise? What about side effects and other health concerns?
Perhaps a larger, more fundamental question is: Do products such as these actually defeat the purpose of the quest for self-knowledge if wisdom is really obtained in the ‘journey’ rather than the ‘destination’? Should we worry about being the “Barry Bonds of Dreaming”???
I’m very interested in hearing others’ opinions on these matters (sometimes I do have a rather philosophical bent)…
