Certainly interesting.
But why would you want to put it into the context of dream consciousness"?
But your second paragraph is precisely what I am talking about; the world of "maya", "samsara" or "illusion" is most of our waking consciousness...
Precisely the consciousness that results in conflict and violence.

Quoting: 4Q529 first of all because dreaming makes for half of our subjective experience :) and second because it puts things in perspective. in waking state the maya is much more dense, because 'the thinker' invested so much energy in making a flawless structured reality according to its logical rules, that even the perception of 'the self' is very hard to achieve. in dream time, the order is somehow reversed, 'the self' being the rule and 'the thinker' the exception, so that using both waking and dreaming states one could get a better grip upon these things. Certainly instructive. And precisely correct, as I see it. Thanks. (Seldom dream any more. Used to, more than 35 years ago.) Sort of like the consciousness of the 'thinker' fills in the gaps in the consciousness of the "self". Sure. That is what I mean by temporal continuity. But the "observing consciousness" is still the best frame of reference; the consciousness that "walks on the water" of the unconscious, or dreams, or images of the "self". Michael
