"Meditation is not a solution to any problem, it solves nothing. It simply helps you to get rid of the mind, the problem-creator. It simply helps you to slip out of the mind like a snake slips out of the old skin."
It is mind that is your sleep. You are sleeping either in the past or in the future. Both are ways of sleeping. When I say, "Wake up!" again and again, when Buddha says, "Wake up!" a simple phenomenon is indicated. Come to the present.
