Dream State and Reality State -- What is real?

[frankensteinxy]

Am I dreaming right now, if you responed I cound be dreaming thatyou are, or you could be dreaming this.Who knows, but understand if you do Lucid dreaming you could go insane you won't know dreaming between reality it's get sceary if you really think about it non of this COULD I say could be real my comment may be in your dream once again who knows.

[henf5671]

I'm an atheist but yet i believe in a god. Some may say how is that possible. well i'm somewhat of a deist / Buddhist! The fact that life can exist at all is bizarre even on one lonely planet which we call Earth. It makes me wonder if there is a correlation between reincarnation and evolution.

[reddypraveen]

I was able to make this shift after a major deep depression. i thank god for it every day and every minute...

[luckydogvegas]

Please let me know what song is that being played in the beginning of the video, it's quite beautiful, please let me know - pm me

Swamiji is offering a 21 day Enlightenment Intensive program called Inner Awakening in India

"Each moment of Inner Awakening is a fresh introduction – because Life is introducing itself to you every moment! No one can predict what your unique experience of this program will be like. But there is one thing I can tell you, for I have seen it happen: no one, no one, ever returns from Inner Awakening without experiencing at least one glimpse of living enlightenment” - Paramahamsa Nithyananda

[SPAINole3]

very interesting looking forward to learn more about you...greetings from SPAIN

[loveunderlaw]

I like this guy, he knows what he's talking about.

[crazydancer86]

i believe our dreams are our worries, stresses, decision making weather good or bad. our dreams bring us understanding of our wakin state of mind that dont come clear to reality n everyday life. i believe what we cant see or come to a decision of, in dreams it comes n shapes pictures & symbols, colours ect... only then if we look deeper into de understandin of the dream . only then it becomes clear to us what our mind and thoughts are trying to say to us.what our needs, hopes, fears ect...

[Jbro326surfer]

good point of view but i really dont believe it. So what about before we were all born? earth was still here, and there have been humans for hundreds of thousands of years. i find it really hard to believe that they are all part of MY dream... dreams dont have history, REALITY does. (ex. great pyramids built thousands of years ago/ hundred thousand year old cave paintings, etc) these are all evidence thats this is reality. you cannot physically access these types of things in dreams...

[mrelectron111]

when you were born - it is sure that your dream state or subconscious mind didnt have to do anything with reality state, but it was your conscious decisions that made you what you are.

on other side, the dream states when you was born was empty, you have felt it with your own decisions and understadning about world, its all about how YOU decide what is what and what is what not, or why not is what not, etc

[mrelectron111]

Its quiet difficult to differentiate between the dream state and reality state - the dream state never becomes and comes to reality state and reality state can't become the dream state or goes to dream state -

The thing is the dream state is in subconscious mind - we can change it with the realtiy state.

You can conclude how old you are and how logical and understanding you have placed in the life is can be understandble by logical state but You can change it,

keep up with me

[7Royalty]

@mrelectron111 i agree with you

[saintfletcher]

Thank God! I love sleep! Sometimes I don't want to wake up. It is so much more pleasant in my dreams than in everyday life.

[sukha853319]

Deep stuff, We have to get out of Maya!!

[jamesfernando1]

Thank you. i have one doubt in this talk.

Could you expain me, how it would be look like if i come out from the dream state?

And if it everything is dream, even you also with in my dream and projection my dream. so could you explain me, are you real and what you are telling is real or it is my dream? if i come out from my dream, how you will be look like..... please reply me.

[mollybabygirl1]

ok so next time some thing bad is going on all i have to do is say this is not reality and move on. All we have to do is make up our mind is this moment reality or not. thank you for this video. I learned a lot about my self. Your the best. love you.

[splatuality]

Just answer the question . LOL He just created an answer to his own hypothesis ..not the actual question . Mark how many times he says only afew very smart and intelligent people can understand this . Meaning, if you donot understand what I am saying, you are in someway inferior. I have spent a lot of time in India and am always impressed with peoples stupidity and willingness to latch on to Bullshit Babas and monotonous dribbling mystics .

[nelsonsilk]

How do i know i havent typed this before???

[splatuality]

If everyone thought and done alike, the whole worlds population would be huddled around this computer screen reading these very words .

[thebabemagnet]

You did. You created that exactly same phrase in your mind before you typed it. We create things twice....

[Phonologie]

May be what exists is the reality you create every moment. Reality should not seen as a independient thing. Reality should seen as something who grows from your existence.Like an aura.

[artfantasies]

Would be nice if we could really create our reality for every moment. What we would need is the key in us to find the right direction and the instrument to can realize it. But on the other side it's possible that this reality is controlled by are comprehensive consciousness so that would explain the misery in this illusive state or of life.

[sudnaidu]

We are at the forefront.

[AEVautomatic]

i guess the real one isnt the one that you say oh im dreaming this isnt real while your in it. Duh

[careemntb]

man dreams are unfillfild desires and our fears and suffering are we not living with reallyity

[ShaktipatSage]

Yes.. dreams are the subconscious desires of all mankind!

[faszika]

my dreams have gotten extremely unpleasant the last few months so mankind must have some nasty desires. :|

[thegorilla69]

always ask your self how fast your moving.

[Corruptedtessa420]

a beautiful being.. i could listen to him talk for...well.. ever i think! many thanks for sharing :)

[deLUXmars]

but on the other hand... if everything is a dream, and there is no actual reality, then ironically that means that the dream itself is reality because it is all we have.

[deLUXmars]

when you are 'awake' it is naive to say that life can't be a dream because you can tell the difference now between dreams and reality.

the truth is that when you are dreaming, your dream reality is defined and limited by the dream itself, and you know nothing else.. which makes it hard to remember it is but a dream. same goes for where we are now. until we wake up we cannot know how to tell if this is a dream, if it is at all.

[AEVautomatic]

not really i realize im dreaming and that its not real in about half the dreams i recall at this point. Useually awareness comes after something that is obvioslly not real happens.

[JaxFloridaLocal]

wonderful talk, such good intentions behind his words.

[DYNODRUM]

The cognitive shift ,in wakeful state or during daily life, is profound, I feel as the bliss state merges With that state and awareness is transformed ,resulting in a perspective translating,Dream/WAKEFULNESS To an innermost vision/seeing of all....

[88jester]

If life is a dream it is also possible that the dream we exist in is just an illusion of another dream state beyond anything that enlightens....

[XehanortNobody]

It is and those "dreams" are called dimensions

[PureCarnage69]

The truth is, reality is a dream and we access this reality from our dreams and can experience the future from the dream.

All there is, is a dream because all we are is consciousness. Consciousness is reality, and consciousness dreams the reality of which it wants to manifest in.

[prinzdubs]

lucid dreamers understand that whether you are aware of it or not, your dreams are nearly instant manifestations of thoughts and expectations. and so they learn to control those in order to control their dreams. Once this level of awareness is achieved, it becomes clear that what we consider the waking state is merely a slow-manifesting version of the dream state. the main difference is that because 'reality' is slower, people do not realize how their thoughts and beliefs form their 'karma'.

[Cashify]

yup

[ufoafterlight]

yup

[SlicKInstrumentals]

@prinzdubs You are absolutely right.

[TheDlalp]

@prinzdubs i realized that just recently, ever since ive been looking into the new ideas of reality..my awareness of when i dream that im dreaming seems to be always there now, and i seem to always manipulate the actions of my dreams and even wake up when i want to

[phaneshkumar72]

thanks swamiji

[EyesSetForTheSun]

I agree with the person under me. Well put.

[mindspinguy]

I think our concern is that we lose our identity. We are very attached to our personalities and sense of self. Our main relationship is with ourself. Our fear arises that upon death we may forget this sense of self...or worse yet, we will have never existed.

When I sleep I do not retain this sense of identity. It just seems to fall away. I wonder if this is what death will be like?

Those who still hold and cling to their old sense of self or personality must truly be in hell.

[SaihatAlhaq]

"When I sleep I do not retain this sense of identity. It just seems to fall away. I wonder if this is what death will be like?"

Sleeping is considered a small death. However, when the real death comes, things will differ very much. Some will be happy and others will regret. Keep this in mind...

[Timurito1]

How do you know? Did you experience death?

[AEVautomatic]

everyone has before they were born. Of course without a body or brain or "tools" to sense or experience anything then you wont experience it. not in the way in english means "experience."

[eoo8]

This is very interesting,because one day when I was dreaming I went to bed and went to sleep.Whats was scary was when I woke up and walked around my room I stopped and realized I was still dreaming.I woke up in a dream is what has happend.When I actually woke up I started questioning life.Are we really awake?maybe not

[SmartPorcupine]

the reason you can always dream different dreams is because you are the only one affecting them, i.e. literally you are creating that reality, the reason the reality is always the same is because it IS REAL and your brain is interpreting it the same

[DanielHero12]

none is "real" its all perception... perception does not dare try to effect essence of life... life just emmits these perceptions...live it, but dont get trapped, just remember thats its only a perception, that can be changed.

[SmileyFaceGrenade]

what do u mean dont get trapped?

[freierHimmel]

Reality is that what you belief to be true.

Every belief or truth is your imagination of something, that you grant reality, to be real.

What you dont grant reality, to be real, is a lie or imagination.

If what you dont grant reality and what you grant reality, is both imagination, isnt this the only thing that is?

Is the reason why you exist as individual that YOU imagine yourself, which is imagining yourself and your world to be real?

[n7nzr8]

another dream i was walking down a road when a white tiger. lion im not sure which, jumped out in front of me over a gate about 50 foot in front of me, it never saw me and ran off i was a bit scared in case it looked back, any ideas what this dream means.

[njj37]

stop fearing life it woulnt hurt you

[n7nzr8]

i once dreamed i was in a feild with horses i was lying down and i tought thewy were going to hurt me, however i stood up and i knew they would not hurt me, i walked f with them through the feild, this dream was ery vivid what does it mean?

[radhuj99]

swamiji,aware of mind is also mind is it not?with mind u conquer mind??manaeva manushyanam kaaranam bandha mokshayo?am i right?it seems easier to get rid of normal thoughts,but not of thoughts relating to bhakthi and satsang.for eg:dwelling on the many characteristics of god,his kindness,nobility,love..i am a sadhak of bhakthi yoga who practices srividya.mantra is not in my mind,it has become my mind..how to still the mind in this scenario?kindly guide me

[radhuj99]

my dreams are never corelated..its always an echo of what i have recently worried about or passionately feel about..no past.mostly great manifestations of god,conversing with me..what does this say of my mind?

[joneselius]

You're at peace.

[jumpingjackplank]

I feel asleep listening to this

[CP91311]

If this is so, why have I brought you into my dream?

[fnog9]

JEEZ!!!! 3:10 freaked the hell out of me!!!!!!!

[chikyroo290]

I'm sort of confused. help me

[rocknroll2415]

If you all enjoyed this video you should rent or buy the movie called "A Waking Life"

this is about the big question "are we wake walking through our dream world" or "sleep walking through our waking state"

ont thing it talks about is the after life and when you die you have about 6-12 minutes of brain activity and you could live and entire life within these few minutes which is then the after life

[NeoOneOrg]

What the bleep as well, but dream worlds are based upon lost intuitions transfered to economy, its metaphysical language which explains this, much as the bible once was correctly explainable, human nature is and will always be the same...neo

[christyarndt]

This video made me cry. I feel so comforted... Thank you!

[activechaos128]

Wow, that is some powerful shit. to say it in western terms...lol

Exellent!!

I fully apreciate what he says when he talks about his quality of his consciousness, ultimately thats all that really matters. What he says there though, makes me think that its all so interconnected. Almost as if your consciousness just passes on from father to son interconnected by your mutual dream state.

[t123n5]

GREAT!

[AndyRoddick969]

i just had fried chicken, wonder what dreams ill have.

[nastyrohin]

its much more simpler than this...i learned myself in bout 30 days i guess...

[ordeready]

I enjoy this video, is like food for our spirit

[rprasannakumar]

சுவாமி மிக்க நன்றி. நீங்க சென்னைக்கு எப்போ வருவீங்க?

Please post your qustions in English.

In Nithyananda,

Life Blissfoundation Team

[rprasannakumar]

Swamiji, thanks thanks a lot. when are you comming down to chennai ?

[rprasannakumar]

சுவாமி மிக்க நன்றி

[closetome]

Love this...

[NlightME2]

RP

why are "you" and who is the 'you' that is resisting this idea so strongly? What would you be giving up if you let go and accepted it to be the truth?

[rprasannakumar]

What you term as "you" is nothing but my perception about myself, the things that I think that makes my life. I have no doubts that those perceptions are acquired but the reality is that's the way it is.

[nagualsutra]

Just go to one of Swamiji's discourses when he is in your town and debate the topic with the man himself... hehe

[rprasannakumar]

I would if I get a chance, I have questions and doubts that doesn't mean that I don't value whatever swamiji says or does.

[nagualsutra]

Hey sorry I never responded. Actually, I think you'd like Swamiji, he says he was very skeptical when he was younger and says that we should be skeptical and experiment with the techniques... Or something like that! I don't remember the exact words. But, yes I'd encourage seeing him when he comes back. He's a very warm and inviting personality.

[rprasannakumar]

A person might have a dream of him getting stabbed this is pure imagination but the concept of knife and the concept of a person using a knife to kill some one is something we happen to see in our day today life or in other words what we perceive from the real world when we are awake, then how can we perceive that wakeful state and dream state are same.

[ur1234562001]

According to Enlightenment only consiousnes is real. Rest all unreal including your body. Take an example of Gandi. After his assasination he said not to punish Godse. Why?. Gandi is an enlightened being who did know killing body is a dream . So he is mahathma but you are not yet...

[rprasannakumar]

The very notion of yours that consciousness is the only thing which is real without any conviction on your part to substantiate your claim shows your minds rationalization according to your needs.

[NlightME2]

Please do not accuse swamiji of such a thing, it is very clear you have not experienced the consciousness within you, that which is beyond mind, beyond rationalization. He has no 'need' to rationalize anything. The Truth is the Truth, wake up from your mind and you will see...

[rprasannakumar]

I am not accusing Swamiji. I just have doubts. Is there anything called good consciousness and bad consciousness. If consciousness is beyond mind, why do Swamijis preach only about doing good.

[prajnama]

Perhaps some swamis and some texts teach about doing good, leading a dharmic life. My experience of Nithyananda is that He expresses the truth of enlightenment, which is beyond purity and impurity; it is much higher teaching than just living good or bad life. When we raise our consciousness or vibration higher then we will naturally radiate purity/goodness Our choices will be mature and a blessing. It's not about sin or merit. It's about raising the awareness level.

[rprasannakumar]

மிக்க நன்றி திரு.பிரஞ்ணாமா அவர்களே.(Thanks a lot Mr.Prajnama)

[rprasannakumar]

You want to believe that consciousness is the real thing because it allows you to escape the hardships imbibed into the real world. It is easier that way.....

[rprasannakumar]

Dreams as we know has little significance in our day today life and we term it as unreal, though a dream as a whole might be unreal or imaginative the things that contribute to a dream is not imaginative, what we see and perceive in our day today life gets reflected in our dreams without any distinction.

[whoever137]

very good point, but then where does the cycle end?

[unknown84]

death

[parzival6]

Swamiji: I really enjoy your schematic representations to convey your teachings. I have not bought any books from Life Bliss. I wonder if you can incorporate your sketches into your books. Thank you.

[greenalphabet]

I have bhagavad gita books series and guaranteed solution by Swamjji

.,I recomend these by Swamiji, :) beautiful and clear

[bliss65]

Thank You Swamiji :)

[zeal2006]

Thank you, Swamiji and ananda sevaks!

[mirub56]

Unlimited thanks to Swamiji for dedicated hours to help us wake up from the dream states that we are living. It's been and still continuous to be a pain! I am looking forward to the meditation's technique for cleaning of samskaras.

A silent disciple!

[nowhereandhere]

There was once a sanyasin (wise man), who worked as a farmer. He was married and had a son named, "Haru". This child was a great joy to say the least as the sanyasin and his wife were old. One day a tragedy occured that Haru had died. The mother was crushed. The sanyasin however dutifully buried his only son and returned to his farming. His wife thought him heartless as he did not once cry. He said, " I dreamt I was a king and had 8 children and was happy. Whom of those should I mourn?"

[nowhereandhere]

I told you so!!! This is a dream. Nothing is real. Sri Paramahamsa Nithyananda is me and you. The mirror cannot reflect itself. There is no mirror!!!
