"The very first step in understanding what this is all about is giving up the concept of an active, volitional 'I' as a separate entity and accepting the passive role of perceiving and functioning as a process." - Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

No Space, Time in Sleep

Sri Ramana Maharshi

Your nature is bliss. Find that on which all the rest are superimposed and you then remain as the pure Self. 

In sleep there is no space or time. They are concepts, which arise after the 'I-thought' has arisen. You are beyond time and space. The 'I-thought' is the limited 'I'. The real 'I' is unlimited, universal, beyond time and space. Just while rising from sleep and before seeing the objective world, there is state of awareness which is your Pure Self. That must be known.

सर्वभूताधिवासं यद्भूतेषु च वसत्यपि।
सर्वानुग्राहकत्वेन तद्स्म्यहं वासुदेवः॥

That in whom reside all beings and who resides in all beings,
who is the giver of grace to all, the Supreme Soul of the universe, the limitless being:
I AM THAT. -- Amritabindu Upanishad
