During this state, one usually experiences [[external hallucinations|visual]], [[auditory hallucinations|auditory]] or [[tactile hallucinations]], or [[sleep paralysis]]. Usually, one has lost consciousness before entering this state, but it is also part of some [[induction techniques]] ([[Wake initiated lucid dream|WILD]]).
