It is indeed, but what you do not understand is that your so-called subconscious is highly conscious, you simply are not aware of it consciously. Therefore, you must expand the consciousness that you know so that it is aware of this other portion of your own identity. You do not really have a conscious state and an unconscious state, they are the same. You have a consciousness. Sometimes you are aware of certain portions of it and sometimes you are aware of other portions of it. You have been told that you cannot know what happens to you when your body sleeps, but you can, indeed. That portion of you is also conscious; there is an artificial division created. I will let you return to your break.
I am going to close our session—far be it from me to keep you from your sleep! I would also like to see you do some work while you are sleeping, however. I work while I am sleeping, why should you not?
Incidentally, I spoke humorously, because for your information, we do not sleep, in your terms. We rest when we wish to, but we do not sleep, and so we are not huddled up with blankets over our heads for eight hours at a time. We are too curious.
Now, I would sincerely like to see some action on your part, and I will give you instructions in the sleep state when you are ready for them, so you have a standing invitation out, and I will promise you it will not be a pompous [sic] week.
([Derek:] “While we are sleeping, you will instruct us?”)
