ABOUT THE TECHNIQUE
This technique combines the awareness of prana flow in the dream state with the awareness of the flow of life in the waking state. By working simultaneously on the dream state and the waking state, this technique helps you go beyond both into pure witnessing consciousness.
The technique has two parts: one that you do when you fall asleep when you are lying in the bed, and the second one that you do whenever you can remember during the whole day. The first one will create more energy to do the second part and vice versa. They are complementary to each other.
DURATION: Not applicable
Part 1:
When you lie down to sleep, decide to become aware of the moment of falling into sleep.
Bring your awareness gently to your brow center, to your third eye. Be aware of the prana movement. If you are aware of the third eye, that is enough, because your prana is there.
Now just be aware that your consciousness is getting diffused, that you are disappearing into the darkness, into deep sleep.
Part 2:
Next, the whole day, whenever you can, remember and think this whole life is maya*. Remember that you are just dreaming, even when you are awake. Just try to think again and again, 'Whatever I am seeing is just a dream.'
Immediately then you will wonder, 'How can I think that? It is not a fact. This world is a reality.'
Do not look at this logically. Do not bother whether it is fact or not. Please be very clear, fact and truth are two different things.
When I say that the whole world is a dream, it may not be a fact according to you .
Understand, the scale of logic which you are carrying to measure whether something is a fact or not, is itself not a fact.
So, you may not understand whether what I am saying is a fact or not.

Part 2: (continuation)
Actually, it is a deeper level truth. Once you practice technique for a few days, you will understand the truth behind these words.
You will see that your idea of the reality of this world gets diffused. Slowly, you will start seeing the screen on which this whole dream is played. Your intelligence will be awakened. You will be awakened to the truth that the whole thing is your projection! When you start seeing the screen in waking life, you will become aware of the screen in your dream state. The screen on which you project this whole dream is what I call prana or consciousness.
The next question that the mind will ask is, 'If I am dreaming, why should I continue doing anything at all?'
Understand, it is because you take yourself so seriously that you have so many preferences, so many dos and don'ts in life. If the whole thing is anyway a dream, then what is important and what is not important? Will you fight and struggle with a dream? When you realize this, you will simply relax and let life happen choicelessly. You will be in the flow of life.
