The witness, the Consciousness, in the waking is not different from the one in the dream.




 The witness, the Consciousness, in the waking is not different from the one in the dream. The waking objects are varied but their witness is one and the same. The dream objects are varied but their witness is one and the same. In other words the witness of the waking and the dream is one and the same.

In deep sleep state there is a continuity of the Consciousness. In the deep sleep state the witness is in its formless non-dual true nature that is, it is in self-awareness.  In waking or dream it is ignorant of its true nature.  Thus there is emptiness in the deep sleep. This cognition is recollected by when it is again enters in to state of ignorance and wakes up as waking or. Dream entity .thus it is erroneous to view and judge the worldview on the waking entity because the witness is present in all the three states.

 To overcome all the doubts and confusion one has to mentally trace the existence of the formless witness, which sees all the three states, which comes and goes in succession. Without that witness the three states are non-existent because it is also the formless substance of the three states.   When the waking entity becomes aware of the fact that, it is not the self  but the self is the witness of the three states in the midst of waking experience, then  the form, time and space within the waking experience ceases to be real.  Thus the waking entity realizes the fact that form, time and space are mere division created out of consciousness. Thus the form, time and space are mere mirage created out of consciousness.  Thus there is no division is consciousness the divisions are mere mirage without the division there is only oneness.     

The confusion arises when one says, 'During deep sleep there was neither waking nor dream. The whole waking or dream experiences were absent. But the formless witness was present. The witness was present without the waking or dream. In waking it was witnessing the waking as whole and in dream it was witnessing the dream as whole. The individual happenings within the waking or dream are nothing to do with the formless witness. Thus judging the truth on the base of individual happening within the waking or dream is erroneous, because the witness is neither the waking entity nor the dream entity but the one that witnesses the waking or dream as a whole without the physical apparatus.
