This article would sets up the context.
During the night, I experience deep silence and awareness of my true self. This experience fills me with contentment, peace, and an overwhelming sense of joy. In these moments, I feel a profound stillness, as if nothing needs to be attended to.
As the morning arrives and the dawn breaks, I carry this silence within me, knowing that nothing in the physical realm can disturb its tranquility. With this knowledge, I approach each day, free from any worries or concerns. I embrace the simple pleasure of engaging in activities with no attachment to whatsoever, guided by the whispers of my heart.
As the day comes to a close, I release all attachments and return to my original state, awareness of true self. If attachments become overpowering, I find it difficult to return to my true nature, and this false perception of myself may persist, potentially spanning multiple lifetimes in different forms before eventually returning to my true nature. In this original state, there is no presence of external things, only the blissful absence of any-thing. I seamlessly slip back into the comforting embrace of silence, ready to embrace the night once again.
I am the only one who exists at any time. Everything else is temporary, malleable and can be changed according to my choices, just like dreams change as per my choices. Fear creeps in as I forget my true self during day-to-day activities and feel victimized of having no freedom. I remember my true self, freedom returns and it is all about my choices. There is no past, present, or future, but everything feels real during the day. The physical world doesn’t truly exist, just like dreams, but the experience of the physical world is real, just like the experience of dreams.
