Falling Asleep Whilst Remaining Awake

Thursday 12 October 2023

Falling Asleep and Remaining Awake

A man asks about the term 'falling asleep whilst remaining awake'. Rupert responds that the purpose of this phrase referring to being is that all our perceptions and thoughts leave us, which is similar to what happens in sleep, but we can remain as being in the absence of thoughts and perceptions.
