How about we create our own International Lucid Dreamer Greeting for Waking Life? Something that we do when we meet new people, something that shows that we are lucid dreamers, as a kind of reality check, and a way to make the LD culture bleed into Waking Life. We are blurring the lines between the worlds! (At least in our minds!)
Imagine meeting someone from another country in a random place, and you both do the same greeting, so you know you are both Lucid Dreamers.
When I depart from people, I often leave them with this blessing,
"May all your dreams be lucid."
Maybe we can have a handshake, hand signal, bow and a phrase we say when we greet people to show that we are lucid dreamers.
For example, "Hello. Lucid Be. Nice to meet you. Hi. Lucid Be. Pleasure to meet you."
So, if people are paying attention, they will hear you say lucid be while people that are not listening won't even notice.
Maybe a gesture can be a nose-pinch RC for the socially brave. Pinch your nose as you shake someone's hand? Just an idea. I don't really care if any ideas are "good" or "bad". I just want use to come up with ideas. I am making new threads so we can kind of "vote" on individual ideas for greetings, and another one for phrases by using the Like button.
So, let's Brainstorm.
These are the rules:
1. There are no "good" or "bad" ideas.
2. Type as many ideas as you would like.
3. All ideas are welcome, especially ridiculous or even impossible ones. The reason to welcome silly ideas that it helps connect ideas to ideas and unlocks creativity.
4. Please type your ideas as a numbered list in your post below, to make it easy for others to read.
I am going to make two new threads, one for the greeting phrase, and one for the gesture or "secret" handshake. This is the way those will work: Post one single idea per post. You may post as many times as you wish. Whichever ideas have the most likes by 1/14/2014 will become together, the Unofficial International Lucid Dreamer Greeting.
