Same Deep Peace in the Waking State

A man shares a fear of losing thoughts in meditation, despite loving sleep’s peace, tangled in college-life anxiety. Rupert equates the calm of deep sleep with waking meditation – not annihilation, but presence – and challenges the man’s habit of predicting future strife. He urges resting in awareness’s natural state, jogging the needle out of the anxiety groove to see that peace is always in reach.
