Well since I am not sleeping I am awake

You're too attached into illusion When you see the whole illusion you understand it is a dream/movie

Observing does not insinuates separation at ultimate level. You are trapped in the illusion, go deeper. It is God who perceives not the "I" as human who is totally illusory

There is no intention at ultimate level. This is a film and I am observing it. Our entire life is a total illusion. Just a film It is just as it is Right now at relative level we are trapped into illusion and feels like we control and live for real but no it is just happening as it had to happen So keep living your life as you do because you are in the illusion now, keep believing you have free will and all staff that make you feel alive but dont forget at the end it is just a film and we have no control at all

I understand now, Leo is right.

Last time on my last thread you said we are not free like we have no control on the dream and we are like puppets. I dont really understand can you explain more deeply please?

Realising that consciousness is an illusion brings a deep understanding of what is this life. It gives detachments to everything, no more suffering, profound peace... rather than a statement its a deep and beautiful realisation

What I'm saying is that if reality as you call it is impermanent and limited (we grow, we live, we die) then there is probably an underlying reality that is infinite and timeless which isnt limited, that means the true realisaiton is beyong ego, the true realisation of the self would be to realise that this reality is an illusion even the self as human (ego) and our true nature is beyond that limited reality, even if this limited reality is the fundamental reality, in terme of pure infinity, it isnt since its not permanent. The more I think about it and the more it makes sense. hindouist call it Brahman or ultimate reality/truth that transcends this world, it exists right there but we are just not aware of it due to the illusion hiding it

So am I ?

Say that 'life is life' without trying to understand or explore is like saying that a book is book without reading the contents. It is not by repeating obvious things that we advance in our understanding of the world. Thinking about nature of life allows us to deepen our understanding of it. Assert that it is useless is to renounce all philosophical reflection, which limits our ability to see beyond appearances. Life is a dream is not just a label, it is an invitation to explore the multiple dimensions of our existence and to question reality. Yes an apple is an Apple but it is also a fruit!

For sure, but when you detach from illusion you reach some kind of peace and understanding of the world that bring an inner peace that leads to a better life indeed. But yes basically it can give you freedom, but if you truely understand the dream, it goes in your favor instead of an obstacle. In short, it elevates you spiritually.

Once you've realised life is a dream, what is the ultimate purpose ? Having inner peace?

there are no differences between you and others

its just you

Since 1 week I discovered Ekajivavada and my understanding of the world never got so deep. Recently I was in a meditative state and suddenly a very powerful thought came to me (I was cpmpletely conscious and aware), eyes open also, and then I was completely aware of the illusion, I dont know how to describe this thought, I just knew it was a dream, so deeply. It was more than words. And visually everything starter to fade away (like blank) and I was leaving the dream, like awaking, and then I got scared so much and told to my self "I want to live" it is like I was too attached to this dream yet, I wanted live still. Then my visual stopped and I was back to the dream (life). I felt like I was going to another realm This is 100% true. Also I take no drugs or anything.
