When we sleep we go to the place that we came from. We lose the use of our bodies for about 1/3 of our total life sleeping and it all seems so natural and calm through the wonderful process of becoming sleepy. It reminds us that one day our life in this body will be over and we will go back to that place we came from, the ether, the great vacuous pool, the Source, Force, God, whatever you want to call it. Sleep is there to remind us that we are finite; that our participation in this physical world that we enjoy through the instrument that is our body is somewhat tenuous and is in fact lost nightly during sleep where we surrender our bodies to the horizontal as if they were mere avatars and not really ours. Sleep is even a metaphor for death in multiple scriptural entries by various traditions around the world. It’s like the universe is saying “you are just borrowing this body for awhile and it needs to be returned to the rental yard nightly”
Now it’s your turn. What do you say? Where do we go when we sleep?
