If he were around today, it seems he would be on the lecture circuit with the likes of Eckhart Tolle or Wayne Dyer. “Let us live so that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.” “When your friends begin to flatter you on how young you look, it’s a sure sign you’re getting old.” You may know Mark Twain for some of his very popular books like Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.

Lucid Dream Guru - Master the Art of Lucid Dreaming DILD is an abbreviation for Dream Induced Lucid Dream. This is the most common type of lucid dream induction technique. In fact, many first timers achieve their first lucid dream through this technique. When a DILD (Dream Induced Lucid Dream) occurs, you become lucid within the dream.
