Waking up another day, the morning

Post by penalvad_uba »

Every morning, when awareness comes to thr senses doors again, everything seemed to me so solid and I so I (individual in a separated environment).
Time and climate seem the same,
Object and house seem not to get old, neither me,
Car and people in the highway are only separated and independent in their travel.
Propensities seem to be on its way.
In the case, iam single, so the individuality sense isneven stronger.

These senses of no dharmadatu, just before i start my ngondro accumulations.

Why is it that way when we wake up in the morning ?

With mindfullness, contemplation and Ngondro, right view start to clearly coming back, and i see: seemed to me that i was dull.because was not properly awaken ( without buddhist practices it should be a normal thing, but the awakening process in the morning really is.more than the awareness coming to the senses but requires mindfullness of body speech and mind and also contemplation).

Have you had tge same experience ?

I think that momentary transition from asleep to awake, one should try to have that constantly.
EMPTIFUL.

Yeah, I have spent years trying to deepen sleep/dream yoga for just this reason. It's IMO the toughest practice but even the small bit of "success" I've had with it was profound.

I have heard ones who know more than I say that a good sign is when the waking state and dream state are more alike.Pellucid.
