Deep Sleep And Meditation

In the yogic system there exist three states of consciousness: Dream state, deep sleep state, waking state, and the fourth or higher state of consciousness. If you bring the deep sleep state into the waking state, you can more easily fall asleep as deep sleep in the yogic system is a sustained thought of nothingness. This manta meditation guides you to be free of all the ruminations in the mind that keep you from falling asleep and to live in a higher state of awareness.
