awake Versus AWAKE

There's a difference between being asleep and being awake, and being ASLEEP and being AWAKE. Let's take a look:

1. Being asleep and being awake
• In this physical realm we understand the concept of being asleep and being awake
• Generally, we sleep at night
• Generally, we're awake during the day
2. Being ASLEEP and being AWAKE
• In the realm of our internal qualities, the concept of being ASLEEP and being AWAKE means:
• When we're immersed in the quality of selfishness, seeking only to benefit ourselves with no regard for others, we're ASLEEP. We're ASLEEP to the quality of bestowal, We're ASLEEP to benefiting others and We're ASLEEP to God and His quality of love.
• When our internal qualities change from selfishness to bestowal, and we seek to benefit others instead of ourselves, we're AWAKE. We're AWAKE to the quality of bestowal, we're AWAKE to benefiting others and we're AWAKE to God and His quality of love.
• In perception of reality, the concept of being ASLEEP and being AWAKE means:
• In the first perception of reality, we're not aware of other perceptions of reality, we're ASLEEP.
• When we go through a change in the perception of our reality, we become aware of other perceptions of reality, we're AWAKE.

Being awake means being awake in this physical realm, whereas being AWAKE means being in the quality of bestowal and/or going through a change in the perception of our reality.
