- Question 1
- I have been slumbering all of my life, and as you can see it's been quite a long time. The other day I read Who am I?, particularly the section on meditation, and it was quite revealing, I felt. Very revealing.
- I came for two reasons: to get some help myself, psychologically, and also to help some other people, psychologically, since I work with people who are mentally ill. Not mentally deficient people or mentally retarded, but mentally disturbed. I am sure that some of your work -- when I study it -- is going to be a great help. So I wonder if you could give me some pointers on keeping awake. I've been slumbering so many years.
