If someone awakes from a dream, the dream ends. Our mind is constantly in state of dream while one isn't asleep. It dreams about either things in past or dreams about things that will happen in future. But, when mind doesn't dreams about past or future and is present then the true self shines. Then there is no mind, because mind is work of Maya to make you always dream about past and future that in reality doesn't exist. What exists is always is present and minds always distracts one from present. Looking subtly at mind you will find that the mind is fake work of consciousness that always clings to past and future and takes away one from presence.
Awakening is always there it is present, it you who is present all the time. From day one of remembrance to last day of this body, you see the world in present moment and it always feel like real existence with this body. This virtuality seems reality because you invest your self as mind body and its part.
You have no name, no body all manifestation that you see around from small creatures to plants trees, other human form movable, non movable things is you and nothing else. You accept it or not but that's the truth. Truth is you and nothing else. Whatever else seems true doesn't have existence at all. Its you because of whose existence other existences seems true.
Awakening is always there just stop dreaming and awake in true self.
