When the Dreamer Wakes Up | Aswin Sundharam | Romancelovesophy

You see… many people think realization means the world disappears… everything becomes blank… silent… maybe some permanent bliss and nothing ordinary remains. But here is the thing… that is not what actually happens. Realization is more like waking up inside a dream. When you are dreaming and suddenly you realize it is a dream… the dream does not immediately stop. The characters are still there… the world is still there… the story continues. But the fear disappears… because now you know it is only a dream. The same thing happens in life. The world continues… the body continues… everything continues… but the belief that it is absolutely real ends. And once that belief ends… the suffering ends with it. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #SelfInquiry #KnowThyself #Advaita #NonDuality #RamanaMaharshi
