Meditation while sleeping

[andyjohnsonman]

Last night I was doing kriya pranyama while dreaming. I was getting into some nice states while fast asleep. Is this normal? I haven't done this before I wonder how I managed to convince myself to start meditating while fast asleep.

Supposedly certain habits can be extended into sleep as well. If it occupies your mind enough, it may extend into the dream world also.

Yea ive tried lucid dreaming before. This wasn't that, i didnt set the intention to notice i was in a dream or anything, I was dreaming that i was with my friend and I taught him how to do Kriya Yoga, we were doing Kriya Pranyama together and i was so present in my dream that it made no difference whether it was a dream or awake state as I was just the awareness within the dream.
