A greater connection with the Lord, possibly.

Possibly nothing.

Also, you can't just decide to do it one night and have it happen. You need to follow a strict sleep schedule and write down all your dreams in a journal to have better recall.
Meditating helps a ton with it though. But it only helped me after 6 months of doing it everyday for 30-40 minutes. I was having 2-3 lucid dreams per week.

Not much. Its just fun to do honestly.
I tried astral projection while dreaming but honestly it just felt like i was still dreaming.
All i did was practice flying.

Are there any things that you can do before trying to dream that influence what happens in them?

I've read people actually practice real life skills through lucid dreaming. Stuff like dreaming about job interviews asking a girl out etc. Mainly stuff that causes anxiety you can actually expose yourself to in dream. Your brain can't tell the difference between what's real and what's not.

I started lucid dreaming when I wanted to get rid of fears or I've always had it. Like I use to he scared of Chucky as a kid then id try to force myself to dream with thought on going homicidal murder sprees with him and I stopped being scared of him. And I did this many other things I was scared of. Overcoming them in my dream and just became aware in the dream realm.

Pretty much nothing, unless you step from LD to astral projection, then you can gain alot. LD can fuck you up real bad, i used to do it to the point where i couldn't tell dreams from reality, like i'd go about my daily life and wake up at some point to find out i've been dreaming. AP is completely different beast, but takes some work and dedication to get there, then again, it can feel so unnatural to the point of scary which would prevent most people from projecting at all. It took me around a year to get past the initial vibrations and even more time to fully project and that's considered fast as far as i'm aware.

Temporarily escaping this cruel world.

this desu
although motorboating dream titties is pretty fun, it's not super realistic and you know you're going to wake up soon

what works for me is setting an alarm to go off every 10-20 minutes after you've been asleep for a bit. Then when the alarm goes off just keep hitting snooze again and again so you just barely doze off when it wakes you up. Each time you try to go back to sleep it's like your mind tries to re-enter the dreaming state and it often ends up being either vivid, lucid, sleep paralysis or all 3

It's pretty fun
