 The SecretThe secret to a good life is very difficult To convey in a conventional mannerOne way of practicingIs to try to learn to recognizeThat you are in a dreamWithout waking up To be able to say: This is a dreamWhile remaining steadfastly engagedAs a participant in thisProjection of your own mindThus, in some ways you are sleepingQuite soundly while in othersYou are fully engrossed and aliveIf you can master this very difficultAnd esoteric skill, many thingsWill start to fall into placeYou will begin to understand thatSomeone is always sleeping and Someone is always awakeEvery dream remembered becomesA chapter in the story of a life. Every dream forgottenReturns to the voidAnd waits In this way we are both the dreamerAnd the dreamed.  Neither of which is absolutely realIn the conventional sense And the secret is the thing that everyone already knows  6/18/23
