There is no difference between the dream and the waking states except that the dream is short and the waking long






There is no difference between the dream and the waking states except that the dream is short and the waking long. Both appear in the form of the mind [I]. The true self is beyond the waking, dream and sleep states.  The true self is the formless substance and witness of the three states, which is in the form of consciousness.  Thus consciousness is real and eternal and all the three states are mere mirage created out of consciousness. 


Since people accepted whatever they have read and heard as truth they do not bother to verify the validity of their accepted truth they will remain ignorant of the reality of their true existence.    


People think the state of realization is simply being oneself, not knowing anything or becoming anything, such ideas are mere speculation based on the ego. How can one simply being oneself without knowing the true self. After realizing the fact that the self is no form but formless then only it is possible to transcend and become one with it. 


  One has to discover the fact that, the self is not form but self is formless before making such statements.  Just making statement surrender to the self without knowing what is self is and speculating about the bliss is mere hallucination.  Using with ornamental words and playing with emotions of the seekers in the name of enlightenment will lead one to hallucination not wisdom.   

Our selfishness, ignorance, anger, attachment, guilt, and other disturbing thoughts are part of the waking experience. Waking experience is mere mirage and it is temporary, not permanent and everlasting. Since the cause of our pain and pleasure are temporary, our experience pain and pleasure are also temporary. When one becomes aware of the permanent the waking experience will no longer remains as reality.   as the dream becomes unreal when waking takes place the waking also becomes unreal when one become aware of the fact that the waking entity is not the self.
