Awakened teachings to illuminate the dream….
Contemplation by Sheilan
Welcome! Self is not known until we realize we are being dreamed. Advaita a word from ancient, Vedic texts means we are “One not two”. For us to gain this ultimate perception and understanding and to Know who and what we are, the soul journeys to planetary schools to have experiences. These schools strengthen our awareness of Self to eventually evolve the soul’s ethereal self back to Oneness. Our ethereal self is who we are in the higher realms. The final realization or perception for a being, is to Know True Self as One.
Enlightenment is a never ending process. We are awake when we are more conscious and aware of the dream rather than asleep in the dream. From this initial awakening point we can continue to become lighter and more awake or just maintain our initial awakened awareness. We are each made up of 3 parts that work together as a whole Self: our soul, ethereal self and physical self. Some of us are awake on all 3 of these levels. Some of us are more awake on a soul level or ethereal self level than the physical level. Some are more awake on physical level. This is why there are so many teachers at many levels of awakened awareness offering all levels of understandings.
If my understandings are useful to you, I am pleased. However, I sincerely have nothing to teach you, as we are each our own teacher. The journey of enlightenment is not for all beings, as it requires a stripping away of desires and identity, so it will happen only if one is ready and if it is their destiny. However, eventually, all souls go thru this process. To the right you will find my articles on many topics. I have written some information on the reason why our world seems to be falling apart… look at The Earth School pages above. These articles gives one a better understanding of the dream and earth illusion and helps us to see the divine play more clearly. I welcome your comments and or questions and I am pleased if you wish to follow my weblog.
If you are interested in having a conversation with me please go to the Conversation page above for more info… I welcome the opportunity to chat with you.
Enjoy your life and this precious time right now… for the present moment is all we have and the key to the door of living infinitely!
Peace, love and joy to you,
Sheilan

Dear Sheilan
My name is Ravi Narayan from Long Island New York. We conduct New York chapter of Divine Life Society of India through online skype sessions. Indian Philosophy and Upanishads is one of our regular topics and how science and scriptures complement each other. We would like to know if you would have some time over the weekends to share and we can learn from your thoughts which will be very useful to us. Our web site is http://www.dlsusa.org which will redirect to Divine Life Society which is one of the very old Ashrams in India preaching Advaita and Upanishads for over 40 years.
Our discussions revolve around Meditation, Manifestation, Materialism, Non-dualism, Enlightenment, Awakening etc. Can you help? If you can give us a brief speech online during one of our online sessions, that will be very great.
We would be honored to have scholars like yourself to give us lectures / speeches in these online sessions and webinars. We would also like to introduce some of your books / publications / courses that you conduct, to our participants which might be helpful to us in future.
Best regards
Ravi

Dear Ravi,
I am very honored by your request and the opportunity. Thank you. I am very open to sharing knowledge with your community, however I must confess giving speeches is not really my thing and I probably would not be very good. Mostly I work one on one with people and occasionally write something. Even thou Advaita is the basis for my understanding of Truth, I am not very traditional, as far as scriptures go etc. I do know what it is to be awake and I can discuss this topic with others and or answer questions about it and my own journey.
So with this said, I am not sure how I can be of service to your community? If it would serve you and if you have a forum for it, I would be happy to write a new article or share an older article for publication.
I wish you well.
Thank you,
Sheilan
