BEYOND WAKING, DREAMING, and DEEP SLEEP STATES

Beyond " Waking" , Dreaming, and Deep Sleep States

WAKING, DREAMING, DEEP SLEEP STATE

The dream state is a subconscious dream. The waking state is a conscious dream. The higher state is a super conscious dream.
If this is the case then how come in the dream state , the moment we realize that we are dreaming, we will come out of the dream. But in the waking state, we can doubt and suspect that it is a conscious dream, still the world continues to exist?


In the dream state ( subconscious dream), the gap between seer and seen is lesser than in the "waking state" ( conscious dream) . In the deep sleep state, there is no distance between seer and seen . That is why there is a knowing but nothing is known. A person who is exhausted of these states can understand the futility and unclutch from all these three states. You realize that the individual consciousness is the thread that runs beneath all these three states. The whole attention will turn towards the center (Seer), and awakening to the 4th state/ Turiya happens (JNANA YOGA) . When this happens, the jump between the Seer and Seen stop. The process of Seeing also stops. There will be no Seer, Seen, or Seeing.

1. Waking State : Physical Body (Form)

Distance between body and world is large.( The gap between seer and seen is more)

There are THOUGHTS & consciousness of " I". The frequency of thought is higher than the frequency of the consciousness of I exist. That is why you are able to have the ability to alter your thoughts and your life somewhat.

2. Dream State : Prana Body
Gap between body and world is lesser than the waking state. ( The gap between the experiencer and experienced is lesser than in the waking state.) The flow of prana creates dream.
There are THOUGHTS & low consciousness of " I". The frequency of thought is LOWER than the frequency of the consciousness of " I" exist. That is why you are not able to have the ability to alter your thoughts and your dream .

3. Deep Sleep state : Knowing
No distance between body and world , both seer and seen are one and the same. There is knowing but there is no knower. That is why nothing is known.
There is NO THOUGHT & NO consciousness of " I" exist.

4. Fourth State :
Intense Awareness - the space in which awakening can happens .

There is NO THOUGHT & there is the consciousness of " I" exist.


FOURTH STATE : 0 TPS



The greater your thoughts per second (TPS) , the further you are from consciousness of the present moment and you are simply worrying about the future. By doing this, the present slips into the past, without you ever getting a glimpse of or experiencing the bliss of the present. When your TPS comes down, you enter more and more into the present, getting a clearer vision of the past and the future. Familiar incidents from even past births and intuitions of the future start to surface in you. When this happens , be very clear: for those few moments, your TPS has dropped and you are more in the present. When your TPS is zero , you can clearly see the entire past and future. It is the point where the concept of time collapses. The point where the idea of gravity disappears. ( Note: 0 TPS or absence of thought is not the Final state , but it is the gateway. The other states will open up only through this state)

If the Fourth State totally penetrates both the Wakeful State (with "I" consciousness) and Deep Sleep State (no "I" consciousness) , that is what we call Living Enlightenment.
