Have you ever been conscious that you were dreaming whilst asleep at night? This is known as 'lucid dreaming'. I want to suggest it is possible to experience an ultra-awake state I call 'lucid living', in which you are conscious that life is like a dream right now. 'Lucid dreaming' is recognising that you are not actually the person you appear to be in your dreams at night, because really you are the dreamer. 'Lucid living' is recognising that the person you appear to be right now is just a character in this dream of life. In reality you are the awareness which is dreaming the life-dream.
If that sounds outrageous, hold tight because there's more. If you wake up and experience lucid living you will realise something utterly awe-inspiring. Although we appear to be separate individuals, actually there is one awareness dreaming itself to be everyone and everything....
