" By manly mind....not E'en in sleep is will resigned. " " DREAMS "  

The fact is, that this superimposed universe (the world as we know it) has no more real existence than a dream.  Now, the whole conscious field of a dream, to-gether with its' problems, is destroyed by the simple process of waking up.  Whenever we recognize any state of consciousness as being a dream, at that moment we have discovered that it is unreal, or, in other words, is devoid of existence.  A man suffers in the midst of an ordinary dream simply for the reason that at the time of the dreaming he believes the state to be real.  But this belief in the reality of the dream is caused by a superimposition that the dreamer has produced.  The awakening is the equivalent to the removal of this superimposition.  At that moment, the state that was imagined to be real, and therefor as having self-existence, is recognized to be no more than a dream.  This destroys that particular world of consciousness.  That world is not simply destroyed for the future, but is equally destroyed in the sense that it never has been.  The same principle is true of the secondary universe in which the bulk of humanity lives somnabulistically.  When a man Awakes to the Higher Consciousness he destroys this universe, both in the sense of futurity, and in the sense of realizing that it never has been.  It is this that the Oriental Sage has in mind when He speaks of  destroying the universe.....Merrell-Wolff

The only difference between dream life and waking life is that there is rather more continuity to waking life.

Who knows how incessant a surveillance a strong man may obtain over himself,  .....how far subject passion and appetite to reason, and lead the life his imagination paints ?  Well has the poet said, By a strong effort may he not command even his brute body in unconscious moments ?

We are close to waking up when we dream we are dreaming!!

The nearest approach to discovering what we are, is in our dreams.

The intimations of the night are divine, methinks. Men might meet in the morning and report the news of the night,....what divine suggestions had been made to them. I find that I carry with me into the day often some hint derived from the gods,....such impulses to purity, to heroism, to literary effort even, as are never day born........Thoreau.

I rejoice when in a dream I have loved virtue and nobleness.....Thoreau.
