A Course in Miracles and Sleep
from 18mind.com
manual_00.html The role of teaching and learning is actually reversed in the thinking of the world. The reversal is characteristic. It seems as if the teacher and the learner are separated, the teacher giving something to the learner rather than to himself. Further, the act of teaching is regarded as a special activity, in which one engages only a relatively small proportion of one’s time. The course, on the other hand, emphasizes that to teach <is> to learn, so that teacher and learner are the same. It also emphasizes that teaching is a constant process; it goes on every moment of the day, and continues into sleeping thoughts as well.

If you had looked down and seen them, you would have turned from them and run, and have been filled with terror at the sight of them. (Qur’an, 18:18)

Thomas Edison invented the light bulb so that people could work at night, and there are now 25 million night shift workers in U.S.-occupied territory. Thanks to the light bulb and the later invention of television, sleep quantity (per person) has decreased by about 20 percent since 1900. Furthermore, 76 percent of Americans have a sleeping disorder at least a few days per week, contributing to our society’s epidemic of daytime sleepiness, depression and adrenal fatigue, sleep therapist Dr. Rubin Naiman said in his November lecture at the 2005 Complementary and Alternative Medicine Conference (CAMCON) in Tucson, Ariz.
Modern Western society doesn’t comply with our natural biorhythms. Humans are built to nap, according to Dr. Naiman. (more…)
