Simple answer - to experience the blankness of deep sleep also requires something, which is consciousness.

[@caviper1]

If you can remember you were not dreaming that is because You were there... Otherwise who was there to now report an absence of dreams... it can only be You.

I don't know how much I would have struggled without swami's guidance.

[@sakyamajumder7609]

I don't know whether I need a separate mantra dikhsha... His teaching is the ultimate blessing. Pranam Swamiji. Hope to meet you someday. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I WOKE UP ONE DAY COMING FROM DEEP SLEEP AND I SAW MY DREAM BEING PLAYED LIKE A MOVIE FOR MY MIND ON THE WAY TO BEING AWAKE IT WAS A VERY ENLIGHTENING

[@amritaghosh7541]

Swamiji I have a special request to make.

[@wisehr]

I've always been under the impression if consciousness is not there I won't be waking up. However, since I've always waken up it must have consciousness that woke me up.
