"we know this is teacher based as the voluntary disciple is not functional in an effective, for volunteers there is only one avenue via dreaming"
Who told you that? Are you sure? And if you say you are...then you shouldn't be. The structure of your certainty is arbitrary....it simply doesn't reflect what I've seen and what's been described of infinity. I'm not interested in your systematic comparisons, because...see previous statement.
In associated with all this, what utterly amazes me is the vast volumes of "scripture" and divisions of sects absolutely replete with debate and discourse over the most inane peripheral details found in...say...Buddhism. I mean, what is Buddhism? If asked, a scholarly monk might take one to the Hall of Archives in some remote Buddhist monastery and point to hundreds of thousands of books labored over for thousands of years. But the truth of it is that all of those words sprung forth from one simple act: a man sitting silently underneath a Bo tree. That's it. So you go through your systematic comparison point by point. Make a party out of it, I don't care. I know the truth and I know how I arrived at it...and I know there is lots of juicy goodness buried in CC's works...among many....but also that its only as good as what is explored via the medium of silence. Silent awareness...silent knowledge. You can chuck it all, but don't chuck that part. Dreaming? Just another venue to cultivate that awareness. An interesting one, yes...and perhaps dangerous in all those wonderful mysterious entrapments inherent within (darkness as you say)...but no more or less dangerous than the entrapment inherent in daily awareness.
