You Live In A Separate World [1]

„The less alert you are, and the deeper you submerge into your dreams [2], the more isolated, solitary and individualistic you will become. Every sleeper–including you–has a separate world, only those who exist in the state of Alertness have a common, shared reality.
All those different and separate worlds are created by the mind, which generates the state of separateness: the Ego, [3] which appears as the focus of our identification with our thoughts and emotions. 
Thus everybody has a separate identity, personal history, individual world view and methods of action. Sometimes suffering alarms you from your sleep, but then you hasten to return to it, and start a new dream, a new objective in life, new ideals, passion, ambition that confirms your connection with your identity, rooted in your personal history.” Frank M.
