On that turiya, pure consciousness realm..so you arrive there and then what happens? What do you do there for all of eternity, lol? I'm serious though. NL
It is really not through dream yoga so much as being able to cut or see through dualistic perceptions that one reaches that state, of being a Buddha, when one can send forth millions upon millions of emanations to benefit sentient beings in any way required. Buddhas are said to have the ability to send forth emanations, to make things appear in whatever way is needed.

NL when you say, "What do you do there for all of eternity" You imbue this with a certain "heavenly" aspect that religion so often does, which sounds so boring. There is no there! It just appears that way to samsaric vision. But Buddha nature, if what we read is true, is able to emanate to samsaric vision and nirvanic vision alike. This is different than darting past Eagles to live out a perceived existence in an energy body frought with its own set of problems, agendas personal and threats from others, fears, paranoias, energy enhancing situations, energy draining situations, ecstacies and disappointments. Also Buddha nature would be able to emanate to those energetic realms.
Now if we are to believe Dreamways, suspend judgment for a moment, the creature he knows as Don Juan in an energetic form, is struggling to get back into a body, "here" and he says words to the effect, that DJ wishes to continue teaching as some sort of super nagual merged with another nagual who is already present here as a person with a body. Buddhas would not have this "problem". They could choose to manifest here at will or to incarnate here as whatever at will.
