the dreamer is one




Aleksandar Bonačić





.



There are as many pillows of illusion as flakes in a snow-storm. 
We wake from one dream into another dream.


—Ralph Waldo Emerson



.




The dreams are not equal, but the dreamer is one. I am the insect, I am the poet - in dream. But in reality I am neither.

I am beyond all dreams. I am the light in which all dreams appear and disappear. I am both inside and outside the dream.

Just as a man having a headache knows the ache and also knows that he is not the ache, so do I know the dream, myself dreaming and myself not dreaming - all at the same time. I am what I am before, during and after the dream.

But what I see in dream, I am not.


—Nisargadatta Maharaj



.




Make everything in you an ear, each atom of your being, and you will hear at every moment what the Source is whispering to you.

We are all the beloved of the beloved, and in every moment, in every event of your life, the Beloved is whispering to you exactly what you need to hear and know.

Who can ever explain this miracle? It simply is.


—Rumi
