In deep
sleep you do not have the fear of not waking up in the morning or if you
regain consciousness.
The fear of not coming to only exists when we are awake and not of the Self. When you are in
deep sleep you are abiding in the Self. The Self that has no fears and is able
to drop what you are not, the ego. The Absolute, the Self that is in deep relaxation of
the physical body. It is a natural state so your body enjoys it, and it makes
it easy for your mind to rest.

A residue of the Self exists when you wake up and last for a
few moments in that time before your identification wakes up and takes over.
During this time you have not yet begun to move out away into the external
world, you can retain attention within, in peace and rest even as you move
about in the world. This is Reality. You are absolute knowledge.
Daily experiences are transient appearance and falling off
of forms and formlessness against the background of the Absolute. To live
your life as if you are other than Absolute will cause pain and suffering in
constant motion. . You are not what you think you are and your concepts must be
decidedly dropped. The Absolute that you are is revealed and there at all times
whether you are active or not. This brings you to a time when you must realize
you are not “one” and there is no individual.
What can you do to
bring your awareness to its natural state?
To be in the natural state requires no movement or doing on
your part. The key is to realize if you didn’t do anything, you awareness wouldn’t
have left in the first place this morning. Stopping mental doing allows this
natural state to come up. Deep stillness is always under an agitated mind or
whether you have your attention on it or not.
When you wake up in
the morning it is consciousness that gets up
When you are awake consciousness resumes. Your mind and body
enjoy experience. When you are at this point, awareness of the “I AM” and
activity can be perceived. Let the perceiving happen. You don’t have to do
anything, but notice the tendency of your mind to go out to identify. Let your
mind be focused inward. Relax in the flow of consciousness and in knowing there
is a natural state that you may consciously return to during the day.
Meditation or resting activity disarms the doing, thinking mind of
identification. Simply put, not getting involved in the stories of your
thoughts.
Breaking the habit of
gross identification
Meditation in the early morning can help you to keep focused
inwardly for the rest of your day. Once you are engaged in your identification
you begin building memories and stories and ego. The choice is yours.
It is best to take part in activities to which you are
naturally drawn this is part of consciousness leading you to experience, to
participate in the natural unfolding of life. Let yourself be moved or not, in
a gentle and open way to spiritual practices.
Don’ fall into the
tricks of your mind
There are no lasting tricks to happiness. Right now let all
your thoughts and beliefs pass, situations come and go. The waking mind is
terrified of emptiness and death and brings you suffering because of it. The
mind seeks limitations. Know that every thought that you entertain keeps you
from or distracts you from enjoying the deep silence within. The sleeping mind
knows the vastness within and has experienced it directly and knows it to be
excellent.
