Enjoy an excerpt from the beginning of The Sleeper Must Awaken by Dr Peter Davis.




Awake?

Are you conscious that you are conscious? What are you

conscious of? Are you aware of your awareness? What are you

aware of?

Can you move your awareness (attention) from one object to

another object intentionally and seemlessly, without thinking,

without falling into fantasy or desire, without falling back into

the dream? Do you feel the pressure and presence of the objects

and subjects around you as you control your attention? You are

beginning to feel the real.

When you are able to do the above persistently, especially during

your daytime adventures, and at times while you dream at night,

you may, in fact, be awake.

You are living a real life only when you are awake.


I wake up in bed at 04:00. Focus attention on following breath.

Sublime. Peaceful. Sleep comes again at quarter of 5 or so. Find

myself in living room of my old house. Broken glass everywhere.

Walk into our front yard to tell wife. She is snoozing in bed and I

join her. We cuddle and snooze. I wake up again but this time I

am still asleep, but awake also. I say to myself, “Oh, I am

dreaming.” I am instantly completely awake, walking in an

airport, engaging humans, particularly energetic, attractive ones,

freely. I notice the energy, the glow of everyone. I move from

luminous face to face, completely awake, present, choosing my

next action freely, in my “dream.” Splendrous. Telepathic

communication from face to face. I ask myself, “How long do I

want to remain awake?” After a while consciousness fades into

an ordinary dream. I wake up physically. I am joyful.


• The purpose of a human being, ant, Earth, star or galaxy

is to exist, to function. To exist is to be a transformer of

energy; an aware, self-configuring, necessary, incredibly

valuable information processing universal being. We have

forgotten this! Love as much as you can while you are

here.

• The world is not what it appears to be. What you see are

the limits of your own perception, sculpted for the utility

of survival. Your brain is a wondrous illusion generator

or dreaming machine - a spacetime measuring machine.

The brain is not designed to show you reality.

• You are not awake. Humans are hypnotically, collectively

asleep, dreaming our lives away. Unnecessary suffering

stems from psychological sleep. It IS possible to awaken,

to escape from prison: your self-absorbed perception,

your wrong thoughts and deadly actions.

• Your friends, family, and the people you consider “great”

are asleep, dreaming, and in prison; in fact everything

around you has been built over centuries to keep you and

everyone you know asleep, and unable to DO anything

that would fundamentally better the world.

• Although the challenge of the millennia, IT IS POSSIBLE

TO WAKE UP. Intentional, conscious evolution, built

upon inner silence, is the only possible way to awaken.

Among many inconceivable benefits, awakening brings

enduring inner peace.


Section One

Awakening the Luminous Path


The Sleeper Must Awaken

In Frank Herbert’s extraordinary novel Dune, the Duke Leto

Atreides and his son Paul stand upon the balcony of the Atreides

Castle, overlooking the flowing water below. The Atreides are

preparing to leave for Dune, the desert spice planet where they

will probably die, when the Duke states to his son cryptically,

“The sleeper must awaken.”


Wake Up!

The singular problem that life on Earth faces is that its dominant

technological species, Homo sapiens (we folk) are collectively asleep

and drunk in the black night, at the wheel of a big daddy Mack

Truck, driving at full speed toward the edge of a very, very high

cliff. The worse problem is that every single living creature on

Earth is our payload, holding on for dear life, not knowing if they

will live or die today.

Please.... Wake up!

Awake, you really will see the light in everything and everyone,

and be more protected than ever before.


What’s it Like to Wake Up?

When you first wake up, everything you see is lit-up, everything is

obvious; it’s as if you can see, feel and hear for the first time in your life.

You are present now. You feel and see what is before you; you are

not thinking; you are not dreaming the past or the future. You

experience a certain detachment. As you accept being awake you

feel the texture of everything around you as if it is inside you, part

of you. It is part of your body, it is your life. The people you love

or despise, your room, the trees in your neighborhood, the ocean,

the moon, sun and sky you feel, not metaphorically, but literally

as part of you. Your observing power penetrates your surroundings,

perceiving nuance as never before; it’s as if nothing you want to

see can hide from you.


Breathing Eternity

When I was in clinical training and therapy with Dr. Curcuruto

he would have me breathe and breathe while on the treatment

couch. At some point he would tell me to stop breathing. With

extraordinary energy coursing through me, I would begin to

awaken. I would feel a blinding, luminous “something” expanding

inside, filling me completely and beginning to awaken my brain, my

consciousness as if from a very long slumber. The roof would

come off my skull, and I would begin to see everything as it was.

As if my IQ had doubled questions I had asked my whole life

were answered. The most perplexing and arcane mysteries

suddenly became completely obvious. Everything was clarified in

an instant. I, at last, understood enigmas and truths which had

haunted me forever; enigmas and truths that my parents, pet

geniuses, professors, gurus and teachers had been unable to solve.

At long last, my energy and my brain were awake; they were free!


The Parallel Paths You Walk

We don’t know it, but in life we always walk two parallel paths. One

is the path of the average man or woman, governed by birth, survival,

genetics, memetics, worldly status, one’s parenting, the media, big

external authorities; accompanied with generally an unassailable

perception of the world as constructed of objects, often of great

importance to us. Nearly all of us live and die glued to this path.

But there is more to life. A second path.

The average man’s path lacks emotional intelligence, he or she

does not feel nor respect their natural environment and does not

empathize well with other humans. Unfortunately the world and

all its stock religions, most all spiritual disciplines, medicine and

psychotherapy, although valuable in other ways, trap us on this

collective path. Such a path is deadly when not tempered by the

second path. Only the second path offsets this.

Unbeknownst to most of us there exists a second, parallel path we walk.

Problem is, we are unaware that we walk this parallel path. This

second life is the path that potentially leads to full awakening and

freedom. Potentially. The path of the awakening man. Sometimes I

call this path, this line of life, the warrior’s way, or the path of the

luminous one. Call it what you want: the path of salvation, the

adepts’ way, the way of higher knowledge, mindfulness, whatever.

Whenever you are deeply silent within, you know it. Whenever you

are fully present, you know it. The luminous one exists in all of us,

but it deeply sleeps, dormant, unable to give us the courage and

power it could. Pay attention and watch yourself wake up.

Waking up is a fight that can be won only by the luminous one as warrior.

We have parallel histories: our ordinary, social consensus history

of which we are somewhat aware, and a second history, just as

existent, which ordinary awareness just can’t reach: the history

and future of our luminous one. Only this path fulfills us.


The path of the awakening warrior is the alternative path

designed for us by universal forces activated in ancient, powerful

seers who existed as our spiritual grandparents, charting a course

for higher, conscious evolution. The path of the luminous one is a

way of living, a code of conduct, lived by awakening humans; a

path which commands the impeccable use of information and

energy. We are destined to walk both paths, if unconsciously.

The warrior learns to see luminous energy as it flows in the universe. When

you are awake, you see that humans actually glow. The luminous

one’s path does not grant objects all conquering supremacy, as

does the average man, especially the very money-rich; but sees

objects as perceptual conveniences, secondary to energy. Even

now neuroscientists are proving this truth. So the facts and

governing perceptions of the warrior’s life are robust energetic

facts and perceptions. But the luminous one must awaken to

notice this.

Everybody is both a sleeping warrior and an average person.

Whereas the average man or woman, successfully or not, seeks

survival, cessation of pain, security, protective relationship with

members of our own kind, body pleasure, material wealth, status

and constant entertainment, the sleeping warrior in you is about

something else. It exists for another purpose.

The luminous one in you connects you to the universe.

The warrior has power the average man cannot begin to imagine.

Tremendous energy, correct information and knowledge; and

arising of the ontological self (being presence) is required for the

luminous one to awaken. This energy and knowledge you do not

now have, because all your energy is deployed to uphold the

world of average men and women, of which you are a charter

member. You, and every single man or woman you will ever see

(almost) is asleep on their feet, unaware of the unknown warrior.

Some of the people you see walking around have in fact already

died, yet somehow the body still walks....

If you want inner peace take up the luminous warriors path.

If you want outer peace take up the luminous warriors path.


A Quick Start

From the time I was born I had to know the secrets of the

universe. I have always had to find out what was on the other

side of the mountain. What exists behind that closed door? Did

Christ and Buddha really exist, or were they merely men or

myths of whom history spun fairy tales? Does life have a

meaning, do we humans have a bigger purpose, or is life just an

accident, arbitrary and insignificant? Is war inevitable, built into

beings like us who eat and get eaten; or is war an aberration of

primitive beings, one more evolved beings learn to do without?

Do great intergalactic civilizations exist in this universe or do all

technologic cultures extinct themselves with nuclear weapons, AI

machines and neglect?

Because I was so driven I always sought out older, wiser, more

masterful people to spend my time with. Hence, I am the product

of lineages of masters. Masters are human beings who reach the

pinnacle of their craft; a few are the living examples of esoteric

traditions. In specific cases I have been the pupil of an ingenious

scientist, an evolved engineer, several tai chi kung fu masters; a

biochemist who was also an Indo-Tibetan tantric priest; and a

Hawaiian kahuna who taught hula and language.


Evolve Now!

If you are reading this you are aware that our human civilization

is in crisis. We are threatened by several forces, three of which

are nuclear war, the acceleration of AI (artificial intelligence),

and accelerated climate change. The fourth is that our leaders

are mostly nightmarishly asleep. Denying these deadly threats is

insanity. Human males now produce less sperm than in recorded

history and female eggs are less viable. Humans are dying from

the inside out.

We will not avoid these threats by accident, good luck, ignoring

them, nor through our current political climate. We must change.

We must evolve. And we must evolve right now. Or we will destroy

ourselves.

Every technological civilization reaches certain, unavoidable

crisis points, ontological enigmas or filters, which they must

negotiate or perish. We reached the nuclear decision point with

the annihilation of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945; and we are

at this very instant reaching the crisis of technological singularity

with AI; the point at which AI becomes unstoppable, programs and runs

itself, then runs us. Don’t let any tech-head tell you different. If they

do they are suicidal and a threat to your survival.

We must evolve now. Or perish. We must, for real; no made by

Hollywood let’s all pretend-pray together shit. We must evolve a

collective new way of thinking now; a singularity in human awakening

now.


It may seem impossible, but evolve yourself now!
