Dream State.

Waking consciousness is the state experienced during one’s waking hours; the subconscious mind works then as a memory. When we are using the conscious mind, the ego orders the senses and the muscular processes and the thought processes in the body to produce certain activities. At the same time, just behind the thought processes of the conscious mind, the subconscious is always awake--- in the daytime as memory, at night as dreams or as the feeling of peace accompanying deep sleep.

The state of "semi-super consciousness" is reached when we are asleep but not dreaming.

The average person uses the conscious mind most of the time. In dreams he passively experiences the activity of the subconscious mind; and in deep sleep he has a glimpse of the semi-super conscious and the super conscious states. One can willfully operate the subconscious mind to produce conscious hallucinations; and by meditation one can consciously operate the super conscious mind to perceive true spiritual visions. The ego is the false consciousness of material limitation that the soul assumes upon entering the body and becoming engrossed in sense perceptions.

Ego perception cannot go beyond into the realm of super consciousness, because ego is the delusive consciousness of identification with the physical body; whereas super consciousness is the direct intuitive perception of the soul when it beholds itself as a reflection of spirit.
