Guest guest Posted October 2, 1999 Report Share Posted October 2, 1999 " Why should men have sleep? Nature wants to teach you that it is possible to have a state where there will be no imagination, no duality, no fear. In sleep, no questions can be asked, no answers given, there is nothing. Questions can be asked where imaginations are possible, i.e. in the waking state. The secondless state is always present, even now during the waking state. When the mind has learned to enquire properly it finds this non-dual state even during waking, as it is never absent. It is wrong to take sleep as Gnana or Moksha. The case of sleep is given only as an illustration or analogy, it is like the true state of nonduality but nevertheless it is not our goal. It is given as analogy only to show that all ideas disappear in deep sleep. Whereas Moksha is present in this very moment and all can be realized here and now outside of sleep. Only to achieve this the mind must be properly trained to enquire into it.
