Awakening From The Day Dream

However, the practice of awakening from the daydream, both in formal meditation sessions and in our daily lives, can mesh with people like us. You can do it at work, on vacation, after a wonderful night of rest, or even if you've had three hours' sleep the night before and are up late struggling to finish a project or a term paper. This practice of awakening from the daydream, connecting with the awakened state of mind, beyond judgment, evaluation, causes and conditions, in this very moment, is always available, and can be profound and surprisingly refreshing! from: A Buddhist Sleep Lesson: Awakening From The Day Dream; by: David Nichtern,Senior Shambhala Buddhist teacher
