When we fall asleep, where do we go? What happens to us? And where were we before we woke up? These are questions that have puzzled philosophers, scientists, and spiritual seekers for centuries. But perhaps the answer is simpler than we think.

When we sleep, we enter a state of unconsciousness. Our bodies and brains are still active, but our conscious mind is at rest. We dream, we process information, and we heal. But where do we go in this state of unconsciousness? Well, we don’t really go anywhere. We exist in a state of non-existence.

It’s important to understand that we are not our thoughts, nor are we our bodies. We are something deeper, something more fundamental. We are consciousness itself. And when we fall asleep, our consciousness is still present, but it’s not focused on the physical world.

So where were we before we woke up? Again, the answer is simple. We were in the same state of non-existence. We were in a state of pure consciousness, unencumbered by the limitations of the physical world. In this state, we have access to all knowledge, all wisdom, and all experience.

So why do we forget this state of consciousness when we wake up? Why do we forget our dreams, our experiences, and our knowledge? Well, it’s because our conscious mind is focused on the physical world. We are taught to believe that the physical world is all there is, and we forget that we are more than just our bodies and thoughts.

But the truth is that we are much more than that. We are infinite beings, connected to everything in the universe. And when we sleep, we tap into that infinite consciousness. We may not remember it when we wake up, but it’s always there, waiting for us to explore it.

So the next time you fall asleep, don’t think of it as going anywhere. Instead, think of it as tapping into your true nature, your infinite consciousness. And when you wake up, remember that you are more than just your thoughts and your body. You are consciousness itself, and you have access to all the knowledge and wisdom in the universe.
