“Did you not exist in sleep? Were you aware of any form then? Were you with form in your sleep? You existed all the same. The ‘I’ which was in sleep is also now present. You were not the body according to your sleep-experience. You are the same now—that is without body. Being without the body you were happy too in sleep. You are the same now too. That which is enduring must alone be the real nature. There was no body but only experience of happiness in sleep. That endures now too. The Self is bodiless.”
