Lucid Waking Just as We Can Lucid Dream

How does lucid dreaming relate to your teaching about the waking state being like a dream? Rupert says: ‘That’s exactly what we’re aiming at here. Lucid waking. To know that we still see the world from the perspective of the localised subject of experience we seem to be, but we know that who we truly are does not exist in the time and space that seemed to be real in the waking state. What I’m suggesting is just like the waking state, there is a larger mind, a universal mind – pure consciousness, that is – dreaming, imagining this waking state world within its own mind. We can lucid wake just as we can lucid dream. We can realise that who I really am is seeing through the perceiving faculties of the body, but is not localised in the body. We can realise that what we are at the deepest level is pure consciousness that is not located in this time and space, but rather that this time and space is located in it.’
