In sleep, we leave behind the sensory stimulation of the outside world.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's interesting how sleepwalking in a certain way becomes an accumulation of your outside stimuli that's actually there and what's happening in your brain.
It makes a difference what we choose to experience during sleep. Many of us think of sleep as a chance to get away from it all. But sleep is also a chance to return to the joys of our spiritual heritage - our universal awareness.
But the mind travels far - and mysteriously - in sleep.
I feel like there is always something trying to pull us back into sleep, that there is this sort of seductive quality in all the hedonistic pleasures that pull on us.
It's unfortunate biologically we have to sleep.
Without change, something sleeps inside us, and seldom awakens. The sleeper must awaken.
We do not know it because we are fooling away our time with outward and perishing things, and are asleep in regard to that which is real within ourself.
The last refuge of the insomniac is a sense of superiority to the sleeping world.
As we abide in sleep, intuitively resonating with the sum of all our experiences - this life and beyond - we gain refreshing perspective on our efforts and have an opportunity to remember what we know.
We learn much during our sleep, and the knowledge thus gained slowly filters into the physical brain, and is occasionally impressed upon it as a vivid and illuminative dream.
