You may be asleep, but I wouldn't presume others are as well!!!;)Quote:

That is, they fully or more completely perceive reality as opposed to having an illusory perception of the world.
Greetings..
The secret of the Golden Flower is there is no Golden Flower.. that is someone's description of "their" experience.. That is not to imply that their description of how they arrived at that experience is not beneficial, but.. i can only suggest that you suspend the notion that "their" experience is somehow more valid than your own and have your own experience..
Are we asleep or awake? We are here, now.. beyond that simple observation it is speculation based on preference..
Be well..
There's a secret garden inside all of us.:)
