[Video Request] Why Do We Sleep?

[Mesopotamian]

Does sleep has to do with consciousness? how do these connect together?

Leo, you have explained how psychedelics functions in altering one's consciousness. I bet the sleep video won't be a much more complicated issue than the latter, or is it?!

 

[Rilles]

i agree

sleep, dreams, astral projection, lucid dreaming

whats going on there!

[BlackMaze]

Yeah. How come we rest and repair the body while we sleep? Is it because we stop being an ego? Do we connect more deeply to the source when we sleep? Does someone that is highly concious need less sleep? Is sadhguru's claim that it is possible to only sleep 3 hours and be full of energy bs? 

[SS10]

Good question. We sleep to forgot our ego and remember who we truly are. It provides a moment of peace.

Cause you need to repair shit and you can't repair it while you're using it, hence you shut down. But yeah, there are psychological uses like dreaming and lucid dreaming. And Eckhart Tolle also says in his book that staying conscious during dreamless is a nondual state since there are no objects whatsoever, just consciousness.
