Nature of realities - not for the faint of heart
Imagine you, the waking consciousness, were nothing but the tail of a giant subconscious dog, which itself is nothing but the tail of an even bigger dog (the inner being, guardian angel or whatever you wanna call it), which itself is the tail of yet another bigger dog and so on and so on ad eternum.. all the way until you come back to your waking consciousness from the other “physical” side of this illusion you are living in.
Now imagine the tail that you are is trying to wag the dog you are attached to.
This doesn’t only make for a funny picture in your mind, and yet so many people try to live their lives that way.
