When I was a kid, and I still do it to this day, I would focus my attention on a single object, and I would start questioning existence after a couple minutes. Like, what is this?? Why am I here? What's this stuff made of? But seriously, this is so strange. I would be so tripped out I would have to think about something else so I wouldn't go insane.

[@Ph3linX]

this is so interesting. i could do the same thing. its like i normally live in a distorted state of mind and when i focus on the enviroment or an object for a while, my awareness somehow starts to increase like waking up from a dream. but i cant continue this state for a long time and my mind pulls back to its normal state in 1-2 seconds.

[@bella3636]

Raw ASMR yes!!! I know exactly what you mean!!! I did this as a child as well and also remember a scene from when I was 14 and this feeling just came to me and then I focused on it asking "what is this" ,if you focus on it it's almost as if you are not really "here" anymore and you almost burst from the inside thinking you go insane. I never knew what it was or if I was just strange and then forgot about it for many years. When my mother became enlightened ten years ago after a few years of meditating/self-inquiry and being into spirituality she told me about the illusion of life etc I began to remember the scenes and then finally started to understand that I had become aware of the dream /illusion many times. Ah so good to know that somebody else has had that experience as well. I also can focus on it when I want to and get this strange feeling. But don't know if it's of any help for becoming enlightened...

When this body was still young. I got this experience of suddenly waking up. And realising that everything I saw was me. And I experienced a total euphoria, it blew my mind that this is me.

[@pod8234]

limeros88 Yes! That’s what Leo is talking about. In that moment, even though brief, you“ woke up!” The bliss you experienced was from the mind becoming quiet with no more judgments. Just pure “Being.” You may not remember this now, but in that moment there were no worries, time stood still, there was nothing to do, nothing to solve, nothing to fix. Pure bliss consciousness or Unity Consciousness. It’s so cool that happened to you! Now you have a reference point. Lots of little kids experience this because they have fewer blocks and less conditioned minds. It’s very good to practice being “childlike in your thinking.” It can make breakthroughs like the one you described, possible!

[@BrandonScottFox1]

Amazing. So true. When I began to take heavy doses of psilocybin mushrooms every trip became the same. I felt like I was having a lucid dream. I was completely sure of it. At first I got really freaked out because it meant my loving parents and all my great friends were just figments of my imagination. Not real. There was only one unified consciousness and it was me and having this crazy dream. I constructed everything. So I stopped the mushrooms altogether. Now a year or two later I fully understand this and am so at peace with it. It’s great to know and comforting and fun. This might be my last incarnation because I think I’m finally deciding to wake up, for a while at least, and who knows, maybe I’ll decide to go back to sleep. But I am loving this incarnation and plan to finish it out at the ripe old age of 120, filled with bliss and joy and love and creativity, and make it the best incarnation of all. Then I think I’ll end the dream. With a signature of love, a kiss, and an appreciation for all it’s been :)

*SPOILERS* I want to share something that spits into the face not only the "material paradigm", but also to search of enlightenment as a whole. Now what non-duality suggests is that we create contrast between good-bad, me and the universe(a.k.a. god) and so on. So ultimately if you manage to collapse the distinction between let's say good and bad, what would be left in the place ? Nothing, right ? because it is only one thing (god, universe, etc.). So if you collapse all the distinctions in your consciousness, what will be left ? Nothing but it self. This as a result cannot be anything, because it already is everything. In other words it can only be nothing, because only nothing can fit it all: reality, dreams, concepts, etc. So if everything is ultimately nothing, let me ask you this, what is it you are looking for ? Because enlightenment it self is just a concept within that nothing. So ultimately if you are searching for that which is described by non-duality means you are searching for nothing. And here is the catch if you are looking for nothing, there is nothing to be found. I repeat there is nothing to be seen, because there is only nothing, there is nothing to be found, because there is only nothing, and there is nothing to be explained, because nothing cannot be explained since there is nothing to explain. It gets even better. The fact that you are searching for something ether "enlightenment" or trying to achieve non-duality will prevent you from achieving it, because it implies that it is something else than it is, when there is nothing at all. So if you want to achieve ultimate understanding of reality you have to understand that there is nothing to understand, nothing to find and nothing to see and anything and everything you put in that nothing goes. You can put enlightenment, theories, concepts and so on, because "nothing" can hold it all, it has no limits, not boundaries, no judgment and even if you put it all there it is still it self, which is nothing. In other words to have everything you first have to have nothing, but if there is nothing to be had, therefore what I am trying to say that your path to ultimate freedom is realizing that there is no path, no limits, only nothing and that void you constantly are trying to fill with "self-development" or "addictions" or things like money will never be filled because there is nothing to fill. So if you want to grasp the reality stop chasing all the bs and just live your life the way you see it fit. You are nothing, I am nothing, this world is nothing, everything is nothing so put anything you want there. Good luck my friends !

[@DavedtheWay]

If we're all a part of everything that is also nothing might as well create the greatest, most wonderful dream/life of nothingness possible. I better stop being afraid of the Illusions and Judgments that hold me back from Waking Up to a life of gentle peace and everlasting passionate love ;)

[@cellardoor9882]

"nothing" is just a concept

[@Hunt3rix]

Nothing cannot be a concept, because there is nothing to conceptualize :D

[@cellardoor9882]

Hunt3rix good point but everyone has its own definition/perception of "nothing". Therefore its a concept, no? :-D

[@Hunt3rix]

In that regard you are right, you could consider nothing to be a concept. After all anything we communicate instantly becomes a concept, because concepts are the nature of our communication. That is exactly the problem I am facing when I am trying to translate my message into words. What I am trying describe has no essence, no density, height length or otherwise measurable dimension therefore closest concept I could translate it as is nothingness. So you are right I am expressing it as a concept, but what I am trying to say by that concept is that "nothingness" has no concept. In essence any concept to describe it would render to be useless, because the concept cannot go outside it self. Finally what I am suggesting is that to "experience" it (even that fails to grasp meaning of what I am saying, because experience would be contained within it) you don't need to search for it, you don't need to meditate or conceptualize it, because whatever you do it will still will be within it, hence the only way to "see" it is to go beyond any concept, but you can't go beyond those things, because those thing are all there are and as I mentioned before the only thing that can fit it all (reality, consciousness, etc.) is absolute nothingness. hence there is only nothing which means you don't need to experience it, because there is nothing to experience. So essentially you have to experience and not experience it at the same time. P.S. I am aware of its paradoxical nature and that it only leads to itself, but at the same time it makes sense if it all there is which is nothing, it can only lead to one place which is it self :D

I had a dream that I was in a vacation for a whole week. I felt everything like I do In “reality,” pain, fear, etc. even time moved the same. Then, in my dream, it was the next day and I was home. I asked my parents about the vacation the day before, and they said it had never happened. It felt so real, I couldn’t believe it. So real that I even considered that I was in an alternate reality or something. I told my parents this in my dream, but they just laughed at me. Then, I thought if the dream was the same as reality was there really a clear difference? I took a walk later and started telling random people my theory and dream. I wasn’t really scared anymore because I thought if this world isn’t even real, what’s there to worry about? Everything I’ve described has been a dream btw. After this, I had another dream of me waking up and writing down everything that happened. These series of dreams were all in the same night. But it seemed like it had been at least a week. Everything made too much sense.

Forty years ago, after an upsetting psychedelic experience, i had pretty much the same assessment of reality as you describe. It seemed an inescapable shift and i had no reference point for where I was. Then I told my parents, and they took me to a psychiatrist and he drugged me into a stupor until i began to forget.

I think on some deep level, we all know that this is a dream, but we don't want to believe it because we don't want to leave it due to our vasanas (binding desires/habits). When we hear this truth, it's like God is finally knocking on our door and saying "ok playtime is over, time to come back home" and we're kicking and screaming like children and don't want to hear it. The first time this truth dawned on me a couple of months ago, I asked myself "Why do I want to exist?" Everything I've ever been striving for in my dream life is for ultimate happiness which can only be found in the source when I stop existing! It was everything I ever wanted but also a very disturbing and frightful realization for my ego. I'm still reeling from this and every day chipping away at my attachments to this dream. Awakening is only hard because we don't want to awaken- we want to stay attached striving for things in this dream, pretending we are getting somewhere. Like when we have a pleasurable dream at night and wake up, we try to go back to sleep so we can continue that pleasurable dream, but it's never quite the same. Once you start awakening, there's no going back. When I wake up fully, the whole world will disappear. Sri Ramana Maharishi taught me this very same thing. Alice in Wonderland scene by scene is about this exact same truth. She worried so much about fitting in- she invented all these strange characters and animals, but she could never find her place in her own dream (wonderland). Everything was life and death so this dream that consciousness always wanted is never what it's cracked out to be. Our ego had a desire for sensory existence, and this whole world came into being. But always going outward, it never got what it wanted- always seeking for the happiness it was when it never existed.

Because you have a sense of lack and you don't feel like life is enough right now. This happens to all of us as we are conditioned at 1,2,3 years old. Once it dawns on us that we are a little insignificant spec in a big scary world (not actually true though) we feel a lack. We need to please our parents etc. Then we need money, relationships, dream lives etc etc drugs sex etc etc. Awakening is freedom

[@omknj]

I’ve got a huge question: I understand that “sleeping dream” and “the dream of everyday life/reality” are both just dreams. Intellectually I get it, and this video was spot on. (Space Kangaroos! Love it Leo!) However, when I am being chased by that flying bear in my “sleeping dream” when I wake up just in the nick of time to avoid being eaten, the bear is gone, along with the rest of the “sleeping dream.” That’s what happens, and that is comprehensible. However, when I wake up from my “reality dream” of everyday, I don’t understand if that means that I no longer have the life I am living?? Is my fiancé gone? My bills? My job? From the sleeping dream, I wake up to find myself in bed, unharmed / unaffected (physically mostly) from whatever it is that happened in the dream. WHERE would I find myself when I wake up from everyday life? Thanks Leo - I love your passion.

[@ActualizedOrg]

Depends on the degree of wokeness. With minor wokeness your bill and fiance would still be around. With a major wokeness the entire universe would disappear and so would your human life.

Zooming out you suddenly become aware that all of this is happening on a TV screen - an epic space opera playing out for someone’s entertainment. But the actors don’t know they’re actors. To them, this galactic orgy is as real as real gets.

[@D3tyHuff]

But Leo, in lucid dreams you can ignore mechanical laws that apply in "real life", and to things that are not possible here. How come this dream doesn't change in any way once we become aware of it? Why is it that everything remains the same? I know that since we are not aware of what is happening in an outer dream, we cannot know what kind of restrictions are there relative to this dream, but isn't it more plausible that what we are experiencing now is the evolution of a dream? Just the way life on earth evolved to be conscious, so did this dream that we call reality evolve to be something "real".

[@gabo3color]

what are you talking about? when you become lucid in a dream, you can totally change the laws in there. It depends on your level of experience with lucid dreams. i liked your hypothesis of this being an evolution of dream btw

[@D3tyHuff]

Yes, you can change the laws in there. So basically things that are impossible in this reality are possible in a dream once you become aware that you are in a dream, but how come when you get a higher awareness in this reality and become aware that it might also be a dream nothing changes? It seems as if while in a lucid dream the "reality" you succumb to can be modeled in any way, this reality seems to be fixed and cannot be changed in any way. That's why I think that just the way your subconsciousness creates your dream world, so does a collective subconsciousness that all nature has, create reality. So the reason we cannot change it is because we are not in full control. There lies the possibility however that if we manage to be more in touch with this subconsciousness, that we can change our reality just the way we can change our dreams. In the end, we do have a tiny bit of control over it. Just think of how your subconscious mindset about life leads you to whatever you desire (i.e. being optimistic about your goal substantially increases your chances of reaching it). Basically following your intuition can show how the same subconsciousness is present in all of us. Carl Jung also proves this with the Archetypes.

[@D3tyHuff]

I actually realized right now that what I seem to be perceiving is probably enlightenment but I'm too stuck in rationality to actually experience all the things I'm perceiving.

[@jacobrogers6084]

Well if nothing's changing, the statement that you have 'realised' how it works is wrong aint it ;) :P

[@D3tyHuff]

No that's just how you realize that you are dreaming and become lucid. Reality hasn't changed in any way, just my awareness.

[@CamelMoonStudios]

I think it's worth mentioning the haziness of memory too. After a week or so, it's difficult to recall events in real life, and near impossible to do so from a month or years ago to exact specificity. It's the same for remembering a dream. If it's all in your brain, why is the level of remembrance the same for conscious reality and unconscious reality?

Hands doing creative stuff refers to the act of using one's hands to create something new and original. This can include a wide range of activities such as painting, drawing, sculpting, crafting, woodworking, and more. The use of hands in these activities allows for a level of precision and control that can bring ideas and visions to life in a tangible way. Additionally, the act of creating with one's hands can be a therapeutic and fulfilling experience, allowing individuals to express themselves and channel their emotions into something tangible.

[@dancingoneness8348]

[@riseandgain5042]

I have a very important question for you Leo, and I've waited for such a video for a long time. But first I have Something to say about the 'science' contradicting spirituality and reality and Truth. There's a difference between the scientific people and the spiritual (non-religious) people (like us). Science is based on finding out physical/biological patterns by measuring them. And the Scientific community bases the results of science as the 'TRUTH', because that's how we find out how things 'WORK'. But the 'TRUTH' is not about how things work, but how things 'ARE'. For Example the scientific community and the spiritual people want to know what consciousness is. The difference spiritual people will understand consciousness by experiencing a 'change of perception' what most people refer to as an awakening/moment of clarity/enlightenment. Science will only know where it comes from and how it works from an objective perspective. However, Consciousness is subjective and the only reality which exists within us. So now my question: I had a few moments of clarity, samadhis, the first 2 Jhanas, and Shakti rise up my spine. BUT, the most intense change of perception I had, not comparable to any of them, not comparable to alcohol, weed etc. was a psychosis called 'derealisation/depersonalisation'. I had this for a few months after my weed induced panic attack. I'm going to describe to you exactly how it felt. The experience came every evening while eating, and it always starts with a Strange sensation in the chest, and then booom. It felt like dying, and suddenly my perception changed. 1. Everything seems to be 1000 times bigger, not like hallucinations, but more like realising how giant everything is, my hand, my house, my body etc. 2. There is nothing Inside me, the 'thing in my head' has completely disappeared, and if there are people around, it seems like they also don't exist, there's no ego/soul within them. There is only the perception which exists. For example It was dark outside, and I couldn't see out the window, so Nothing existed outside, because I didn't perceive it. I knew from experience, that there is an outside world, but without perceiving it in the moment, it doesn't exists. 3. It feels like Nothing is real, like in a dream while you realise it is a dream, but 10000 times stronger because you're awake. I had this everyday for about 3 months, and when I stopped fearing it, it went away. It felt like dying every time I had the attacks which lasted for about 30 seconds to 5 minutes and during the day I felt for 3 months just a very little bit like in a dream state. I'm pretty sure an ego death is part of the experience of derealisation, because 1. it feels like dying, and 2. I don't exist in this state. That's actually the experience that led me to spirituality. And even though those experiences felt horrible, during the day, I felt so incredibly detached. I felt bliss listening to music and looking out the window. So I now view this more as an awakening rather than a psychosis, what do you think? Is this 'waking up from a dream?', a spiritual experience, ego death, or none of them?

Hey Leo, just because it's impossible to prove reality is physical, it doesn't automatically follow that it's a dream. You know what I'm saying? It's just possible, that's all. You're getting all too attached to the concept of physical world being unreal and just a dream, and I'm afraid you've stopped questioning your assumption and take it as a given. The relationship between consciousness and what we perceive as physical universe is still a deep mystery and may remain that way forever. But thank you very much anyway for your non duality videos, your perspective is still great, as it counter balances the overly materialistic view of life so prevalent today. Much love from Russia :)

Today I was meditating on a Joe Dispenza meditation. And I woke up. For real. Suddenly I understood at a level beyond my mind that I am living in a dream. That I am in a dream. So clear and crisp. Actually the mind vanished after that. I realised that my perception and thoughts are not even coming from the mind. I am blown away. And I understood that as long as I don't feel and act in conflict to the dream, to the "reality", I am safe, I won't exit the dream, as long as I am allowing the dream to unfold. Actually I understand now that the dream has already been dreamt, from beginning to end. Man, this is so freeing. But also at a scary level. What can I do now? What can I manifest? How can I manipulate the matter in a wise way, without disrupting the dream? Now I can see how magnificent this dream is and its potential is not even 1% manifested yet. I don't have any power over the script of the dream, it has been dreamt already, but knowing this, what can I still achieve within it? I'm still processing everything. And then I searched for some information on this and I found your video. And the information is a perfect match to the information I awoke to. Thank you.

It takes making the effort of a conscious shift in perspective, but oh, my how it pays off! So much of the challenging aspect of things just falls away.
