Disclaimer – Not Mine Only Notes
I have to stress that these words are my notes only. The
thoughts and understanding behind them do not come from me but from the
terrific missionaries that lead the various activities during the retreat.
To be Asleep
To better understand what it is to be asleep, we can look at
life.
If we observe a person who is asleep physically, we see that
their senses and focus are dormant.
What happens is that the ego hypnotises the free essence and
when we are hypnotised, we or the free essence act in exactly the same way as when
we are asleep physically.
The result when the free essence is hypnotised by the ego,
is that two essences go to the abyss - the free and the sleeping.
Conclusion
When we are sleep the consciousness no longer watches the ego,
and it becomes the same as it. Basically by studying how we sleep physically and
psychologically we can know how to awaken - by duality.
