"Let your awareness be the witness of your dreams, for in that witnessing, you transcend the illusions of the mind."
According to Osho, visions are still dreams—from another world—so don’t pursue or cling to them; simply remain a witness. Through steady meditation, let this witnessing continue as you fall asleep. Gradually awareness seeps into dreams, so even while dreaming you remember yourself, observe what arises and passes, and become free of identification with all images.
Keep meditating and watch whatever comes like a movie without getting involved; soon you’ll stay aware even while sleeping.
Why this matters practically
- Loosens fear and reactivity by breaking identification with dream and waking stories.
- Brings calmer, clearer sleep as visions become objects of awareness.
- Builds continuous mindfulness that carries into daily life.
