Thursday 23rd November 2023 "Consciousness 'I Am' continues in sleep "

You will receive a copy of both the video & audio files for this Satsang meeting (MP4 video + M4A Audio format) 2 hour 02 mins

A participant shares a verse from Guru Vachaka Kovai about sleep and Self-Enquiry and Tom shares his understanding. "If one stays alert, self-aware, aware of your own awareness... when sleep comes, it will not be sleep. Deep sleep is a dark, depressed or tamasic state (a dull energy). We will not fall into this tamas if we fall asleep and we are aware of being ourself. We will fall into the state of being the Self, Jagrat shushupti - Self Realisation."

"Sleep during Self-Enquiry is a big obstacle, you try to do Self-Enquiry but you fall asleep, but as your practice improves 'you' may fall asleep, so if Tom is doing Self-Enquiry, Tom may fall asleep but subjectively I will still be awake...eternal wakefulness"

"These teachings on sleep are very profound and rarely found anywhere else."
