Final Jump

What ever a person does, to some how evolve into the ultimate possibility, there comes a stage, where there seems to be no where else to go!

Now, when a similar question arises, at a very early stage of this kind of arduous journey, what to do with this question? Is it worth all, keeping this question alive? That is the subtle question behind the ‘apparent’ or ‘surface’ level question!

The mystic set of people, continue to amaze everybody, every being, including themselves, when they find themselves engaged relentlessly to assist people to ‘hang on’ to such questions. (That small insignificant journey ‘across’ the pathless path seems quite enough, for a pint sized ‘me’ even to gauge this much). ‘After’ all, time itself is a mere concept of the ‘mind’, so where is the relevance of that ‘too early’ or ‘too late’? (That is where I find some ‘excuse’/justification, in reproducing this question, ‘soliciting’ your ‘kind’ attention)

Before it is too late (that is, before the mind gets too much fatigued, to even look at that wonderful question), let me ‘rest’ , ‘here’!

Do you think the world exists?
When you are in deep dreamless sleep.If so..how do you know with absolute certainty.

Additional Details
We don't percieve anything when we are in dreamless sleep..
I am referring to dreamless sleep..not dreaming sleep.

My reply:
Well, the whole problem is,the world exists only when we are 'thinking', not when we are sleeping.Very right about that sleep state. All the sensory level perceptions are quite withdrawn, with no experience of even this 'earthly' life! (And incidentally, this is the very first problem of a dead person! To even know that the game is over now! )
The whole purpose of spirituality is to afford us the 'peek' look into that 'mystic' reality, where, the sleep happens in our full awareness! We go into that nothingness with that 'witnessing aspect' (unlike the 'absenteeism' during sleep that we are so 'familiar' about!! Yes, familiar about our unfamiliarity, is what I mean!).
(Honestly, I am amazed at the depth of questions such as these, that are slowly on the increase on this forum! When these questions become very intense, then, there is no going back! Whatever 'else' we do with our lives, this pulls us back into the 'groove' quite choicelessly! I bow humbly to such wonderful questions!)
