Thread: What Does It Mean To Rc During The Day

someone tell me cause i need to do it

It means to perform reality checks during the day, in hope that the habit will carry over into your dreams. Once a reality check fails, lucidity is achieved.

I love your Zissou avatar, by the way. That movie is brilliant.

ya but that doesn't tell me what to really say during the day, i cant say im dreaming, cause i kno im not, alsoi dont know what my dream sign is

What you have to do is imagine what would happen if you WERE dreaming ...really put feeling into it when you ask yourself, "Am I dreaming?" ..I do this many times a day ...without even having a solid dream sign ...and that's how I become lucid (about 10 times lol) ...I just randomly did a reality check.

This is your problem. I suggest you sit back and think about what dreams are. Dreams are hallucinations, the perception of things in the general absence of anything actually causing a stimulus from outside your body. Dreams can be incredibly realistic, your mind interpreting that you are seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling, and tasting.
I'm not saying the world around you isn't real, but I think an important part of learning to DILD is to ask yourself, "How do I know for a fact that right now, even though I think I'm awake and in the real world, that I'm not actually just in a dream? Literally, how can you tell? How do you know that the screen in front of you actually exists? How do you KNOW that it's not just random firings, a hallucination? Go on, reach out and touch it. Are your fingers actually rubbing along the monitor, causing sensors in your fingertips to fire to your brain alerting you to pressure? Or is your brain saying "OH, stnicka is touching something, I'd better figure this texture and temperature out and provide him with the sensation of experiencing it?"

I'm sure you've seen The Matrix, as almost everyone on this site has for good reason. Think of it like Neo. Here he was living this world, waking, eating, sleeping, shitting, fucking in this world, and suddenly he realized that nearly every aspect of it was false. That he was really laying somewhere asleep. Imagine that this is the case when you are reality checking. Never assume to know for a fact that you are awake. Ever.

Now, with the above mindframe:
