I am embarrassed to talk about what I learned from lucid dreaming. My goal was to ask questions that would reveal knowledge that would be too profoundly difficult to come up with in a waking state.

I am normally an extremely shy guy. So in the early ones when I found my self lucid in a dream, I would do bold and brave things like just start having sex with the person in my dream (they always seemed happy to oblige). That was kind of fun. Knowing that I would wake up shortly gave me a lot of confidence. Then I'd wake up saying, "shoot, it didn't last long enough to get profound."

When I finally got around to asking profound questions the person in the dream who I asked would stammer and struggle to try to verbalize an answer but simply couldn't produce. That was frustrating. I determined that I was asking my subconscience and that it didn't have a hidden profound body of knowledge.
