Life is a dream and death is waking up

[Someone here]

 

My whole life is a dream.  Gosh how liberating that is.  When you realize that this entire infinite cosmos is nothing but a figment of Your imagination.  It's exactly the Same as falling asleep at night, dreaming a dream, and watching two people in the dream have a conversation, a disagreement, perhaps even an argument. Perhaps, you don't just watch but join in. You argue with them too, and perhaps do so lucidly. But perhaps they make good points, perhaps they change your mind about something. Or perhaps you just have fun arguing with them, with yourselves really. In the deeper realer reality, we are not three people having an argument but one big transcendental brain having a dream. It is one playing as many. You will not find the singular brain in the dream where you find the many different people with many different thoughts having an argument. You can look to the left or right, or look up or down, but you will never see it with your dream eyes from your dream body. And yet you can become lucid and easily see that the singular unified dreamer dreaming the dream is undeniably much realer than anything in the dream. It's even realer than whatever ever-changing thing you see when looking into a mirror in the dream at any given moment.

And what happens always all the time if you fall from the balcony and hit the ground and seemingly die in the dream ?.....you wake the fuck up.

Good thing is, you don't have to ditch your body to wake up.

There are degrees of lucidity. Just like in a dream .you can be lucid in the dream. But to fully awaken you have exit the dream altogether. Completely. As long as you are inside the dream ..you are not fully awake.

The question is..Where will a spiritual awakening take you?

Nowhere! It will only return you to where you already are and always have been.

Its job is not to take you somewhere, it is to bring you back from your dreams and fantasies. That is precisely why it is called awakening.

Do you feel that you love yourself more after this realisation? What are its practical implications? Only liberation? Could it be relief?

I'm living more in the moment and fully aware of how I'm imagining others . I'm carefree. Listless. And more calm and peaceful .its the peace that passes understanding .

We are the stars dreaming. We send our light to earth and enter body.

No we are not star dust we are an actual star. Thats sending its light to earth to dream a life of a human. The earth is star dust and our bodies are of the earth. We are not our bodies we are the light playing in the dust. God is guiding its stars to become one with it.

Not always. You could have another dream or nightmare.

No .when you die in a dream you ALWAYS immediately wake up .

You might fall asleep again and have another separate dream. But only after you've woken up from the previous dream.

@Someone here So you never had a dream where you died and immediately transitioned into the next scene? Always woke up from sleep?

This gives way too much shameless deference to spiritual hearsay. As if you can possibly know something like that for certain.

What do you wake up to when you die in this dream that we call "real life"? Some higher level dream? The void?

I like this.

Death is a belief in the belief-dream.

Death won't wake you up, it's just a continuation of the dream.

The waking up has nothing to do with the body or what happens to the body. All that is the dream!

@Someone here You don't know what life and death is. You don't know what you're talking about.

I can know that for certain because its my direct experience.

You are dreaming forever. You will wake up from one dream to enter the next dream. There is no ending to waking up.  Its dreams all the way down

Yes death is a belief. But because ultimately you won't die .you will just change your form .the process of reincarnation. Each new Incarnation follows a death .

Enlighten me .

@Tyler Durden the void is a transition process. Its like the soul healing center where you can pout and cry as much as you need too. Then once your identity has reached null you transition from the void. I entered the void one night after heavy drinking. It felt like you went to sleep and woke up in nothing and was crying and screaming for 24 hours straight with no eyes to cry and no mouth to scream so the pressure of the emotion builds up and builds up then you pass out and wake up again in a void and cry and scream for 24 hours it feels like. Then you pass out and wake up again going through this process 5000 times. Once I was done pouting my identity was null and I was resurrected. Sleep state and waking state become the same and when you are concious its null and when you are sleeping its null and then there is no difference between sleep and awake.

@Hojo this sounds like alcohol-induced psychosis. 

@Someone here I don't think that when you die in your sleep and you wake up, that this is spiritual. I get the whole 'life is a dream' metaphor, but you can't enforce it on biological circles, like sleep. How is waking up from a dream where you die evidence that our whole life is a dream?

It was not alcohol induced psychosis. Reality started looping like a shroom trip thought loop. Then my soul fell out of my body and I was in the void. I felt the loneliness and sadness of God. When you are in the void there is no self reflection you just feel what you are feeling and the emotion will spiral out of control and there is no body to stop it. So you will be like im sad and lonely then you get really sad and really lonely and then you get really really sad and really really lonely then you are spiraling fast and you are just a roiling emotion of sadness and loneliness with no stopping it. Because time dosent exist in the void you always are and always have been what you are. So you were never just really lonely and sad you have always been the saddest and loneliest thing possible instantly.

Ok. What did you take out of this experience? In what way did it help you in your spiritual journey? Did you trigger it or did it happen spontaneously?

When I woke up I completely forgot what happened. I just knew deep down that I had died and I was so happy to be alive. But I had extreme underlying ptsd on my soul from visiting hell that I fell into deep depression for 8 years. Then I was going to kill myself but I decided to give mushroom a shot even tho I was scared of them. I ate the mushroom within 30 mins my ego dissolved and was trancing out. As I'm trancing out the mushroom was like hey remeber 8 years ago when you died. And I'm like no. Then instantly I was shot back into that moment the mushroom was showing me that I had died but I was still there when I died. It was showing me what conciousness is me without me. I am immortal. I instantly understand what I am. My reality starts shifting I see a very distinct separation between reality and me. Like im in a glass case totally protected from everything. My neurons start firing off. There is a massive thunderstorm happening inside of ny mind. Im laughing and crying so hard im screaming for 6 straight hours. I close my eyes and I see the entire universe inside of a globe. When you die you have to understand that you wont be there. You will be there but you will not have a body to filter your thoughts. God dosent second guess itself. I needed to die to understand consciousness so it had a profoundly good impact but not seen at the time. If I go back to the void I will not pout. The faster you lose your identity the faster you get out of the void.

@Hojo so you became God? 

Have you ever had another mystical experience since then?

I didn't become god i just had a complete cessation of life except for those two extreme emotions. I just understood what conciousness was. The experience felt like all my neurons connected together in a specific way and it when they form together that way its like a hidden cheat code of the universe and then all the neurons in your brain start going we love you we love you and shoot their love inside of eachother.

I have had another mystical experience but it is weird. Ego death isn't a big deal for me anymore it just feels weird more than scary. But I ate some shrooms again it felt like inside of my head was rock this rock was consciousness. Consciousness was wrapped in a plastic bag with the handles going out the back of my head. It felt like someone was pulling really handles really hard but I couldn't fit outside the tiny hole the bag was pulling me out from cause my consciousness was too big. It was wearing 500 t shirts and needed to be naked to fit through. So a voice in my head says ' you are wearing too many layers! Focus!' So I look at the wall and focus and then instantly all 500 shirts are ripped off and I fell on the ground and my body dissapears and I'm in the spirit realm. It looks like waves of red blue and purple star light everywhere. I move my body I cannot see it but I can still move. When I move my body it looks like a blanket is over it. Like move your body under your blanket and thats how it looked but it was a blanket of energy. I move around my house and I'm half in and half out of my body. I see a very tiny spirit flying around in the distance then I sat on my couch and now I'm completely put of my body. I can control my movement but I move around by moving my eyes not my body. I'm in 2d reality there are aliens there they are hacking my brain im not in control of anything there is a doctor. He starts mind wiping me. It felt like a printer squeezing out all my memories of my consciousness. I'm running away by moving my eyes to the left side of my vision but the printer gets me and is squeezing me. I instinctual just chant I am I am I am I am as its running me over and it allows me to keep myself from forgetting. Then all of a sudden I'm hallucinating an infinite library. I'm standing outside of it and a page flies into my consciousness and says this is you. Then another flies out thuds into my conciousness it says this is you. It does this 5 times and then I regained awareness of my body.
