Waking,Dreaming and Deep Sleep

"There are three states of consciousness known to us i.e. waking, dream and deep- sleep.
Our life is a cycle of these three states of existence.When we are awake,we experience the world of things, beings,emotions and thoughts.It folds back and dissolves as soon as we leave the waking state.
Similarly when we are dreaming,we take the form of a dreamer and experience the emotions and thoughts as long as we are in the dream state of consciousness. This world is totally different from waking world.It also folds back and dissolves as soon as we leave the dream state.
Again, when we are sleeping without dreams, we take the form of a 'deep- sleeper'. In this state we experience a blankness or nothingness.It lasts as long as we are in the deep- sleep state.Our life ,therefore, revolves around these three states of consciousness, three distinct worlds.

So what we are: a waker, a dreamer or the deep-sleeper.

The waker is not the same as the dreamer or the deep-sleeper is not as the waker.

Then what is our real self.??????

Spiritual Quote

Sufi master Pir-O-Murshid Inayat Khan asked his spiritual teacher:.. how one could recognize a Godly man.
 His teacher replied: “It is not what he says, it is not what he seems to be, 
but it is the atmosphere that his presence creates.
That is the proof, for no one can create an atmosphere which does not belong to his spirit."

"To become cold from the coldness of the world is weakness,

to become broken by the hardness of the world is feebleness, 

but to live in the world and yet to keep above it.........

is like walking on the water"

Do you want to enter paradise?
To walk the path of Truth you need the grace of God.
We all face death in the end.But on the way, be careful........
Never to hurt a human heart!.........(RUMI)

Inner And Outer world

"The world is not the same to all people.Each one lives in his or her own little domain.Peace and harmony may reside in one person's world, strife and grief in another's world.
But whatever be the circumstances of one's environment, it consists of both an inner and an outer world. The outside world is the one in which our life is engaged in action and interaction.The world inside us determine our happiness or unhappiness.
To exist in this world without peace of mind is to dwell in a kind of hell. The mind in chaos finds chaos all round. But the man of divine perceptions finds the earth a blissful abode.
So let us  try to quiet the outgoing mental restlessness and turn the mind within and practice even minded calmness all the time."
