Comment: Suppose before going to bed a person is still quite alert and asks to be woken up at a specific time in the morning. But when he is being woken up in the morning, he simply cannot get up. Is there a similar state in the spiritual realm when a person cannot rise?

My Response: It is precisely this state that is very clearly manifested in the spiritual realm.

What does it mean to “go to sleep” from a spiritual point of view? You are immersed in the next level where you understand nothing. It is like a dark night for you. You have no orientation within it as if you are asleep. During such “night” states, which you work out very thoroughly inside yourself, you bring yourself to the morning.

How do you know that you will come in the morning and there will be a light that will illuminate everything from within (you will begin to think, feel, understand), and suddenly this state will begin to manifest itself as wakefulness, as awakening?

This happens because by leaving the previous state where you still had control over yourself yesterday during the day, you have already laid the foundation in advance to awaken again, but on the next level.

You connected yourself in advance with the general managing system and completely disconnected from the possibility of doing anything in this darkness.

How does a sleeping person know that he will wake up? Where does he have this internal alarm clock?

He kind of turns it on inside himself. We do not have this in our world. But in the spiritual world, we deliberately perform special actions as if forcing the surrounding nature to awaken us. That is how we work with the environment.

And then it turns out that it works in such a way that we wake up, meaning a person’s eyes open to that night state that is now turning into day. What was unclear, completely incomprehensible and entangled suddenly starts to manifest, unfold, be realized, and sensed. So, instead of night, day comes.

So, what is the problem then? The thing is that there is no night or day outside of me. But when I begin to feel new sensations, a new mind, new thoughts, new understanding, it means that what used to be perceived by me as night is now perceived as day.
