A NEW SELF-INFLICTED “SLAP”: RATHER THAN USING THE ANCIENT METHODS OF REMINDING YOURSELF OF YOUR GOAL, (SUCH AS: SELF-OBSERVATION , AND REMEMBERING”, AND “BEING ATTENTIVE TO THE MOMENT”) TRY THIS INSTEAD: JUST INTERNALLY CUT YOUR EYES UPWARD IN YOUR HEAD AND SAY: “OKAY, I’M AWAKE NOW, YOU CAN STOP DREAMING.”
EVEN THOUGH, (WITHOUT ANY DOUBT), IT CAN BE GREAT FUN TO READ ABOUT, “FREEDOM
FROM DREAMS” ETC, CAN YOU NOW EXPERIENCE THE FOOLISHNESS OF BEING EXCITED FIRST
THING WHEN YOU AWAKEN IN THE MORNING FROM YOUR NIGHT TIME SLEEP AS YOU DREAM ABOUT
THE MARVELOUS BOOK YOU HAVE REGARDING DREAMS & FREEDOM AND HOW ANXIOUS YOU ARE
TO GET BACK READING IT SO THAT ITS INFORMATION CAN HELP YOU,
WHEN WHAT YOU SHOULD BE DOING — AND IN FACT, ALL YOU CAN BE DOING
IS WAKING UP RIGHT THAT INSTANT FROM ALL DREAMS
EVEN THOUGH INVOLVING FREEDOM FROM DREAMS.
READING AND DREAMING ABOUT, (“THINKING ABOUT” AS CIVILIANS CALL IT),
BEING AWAKE FROM DREAMS, WILL NOT DO — WHAT ALONE WILL DO IS TO
WAKE UP FROM YOUR DREAMING RIGHT THIS INSTANT.
EVEN AFTER YOU’VE AWAKENED, YOU’VE MERELY CHANGED YOUR RELATIONSHIP TO DREAMING — YOU HAVE NOT CHANGED YOUR NATURE….YOU CANNOT CHANGE “WHAT YOU ARE”. P.S.: THOSE FULLY AWAKENED KNOW THAT WHAT I JUST SAID IS BOTH TRUE & UNTRUE,
BUT UNTIL YOU ARE “FULLY AWAKENED” — SO WHAT?! ….
…SO FOR NOW, JUST KEEP YOUR ATTENTION ON CHANGING YOUR RELATIONSHIP TO DREAMING
A VARIATION ON A PREVIOUS INTRODUCED APPROACH, THAT OF CONSTANTLY SAYING TO YOUR SELF “I AM ALIVE, AND ALSO DREAMING THAT I AM ALIVE”.
PERTINENT THERETO: WE W[LL NOT ONLY LIVE THE LIFE WE MUST, BUT WILL ALSO —
— LIVE A RELATED LIFE OF DREAMS”
CONTRARY TO THE POPULAR PHRASE:
WE ARE NOT”WHAT WE THINK”, BUT RATHER: WE THINK AS PER “WHAT WE ARE.”
ALERT MAN’S VERSION: WE ARE WHAT WE ARE, AND THEN DREAM WHAT WE ARE BASED ON THAT
ALERT PERSON’S BEST APPROACH: DON’T MISTAKE YOUR DREAMS OF WHAT YOU
FOR WHAT YOU ARE
ANN YOU’LL HAVE NO PROBLEM.
