“Relative to the level of awareness that is possible for us, our ordinary state of consciousness is as far from a direct experience of reality as sleep is from waking consciousness.”
-- Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson “
The thought ‘I exist’ is not the same thing as the awareness of one’s own existence. … Thought is not the same thing as consciousness.”
-- Jacob Needleman

“Are you an Angel?”“No.”
“Then what are you?”“I am Awake.”
