Hey there very good to see your insights into consciousness. I laughed when I saw this - your steem post, linking a twitter post, which links a Medium post, quite a chain going there. Good strategy to crosspost of course.
Yeah cultivating lucidity in the dream of life on earth within the Matrix called Maya by the Vedantists, is the key, as you say. Impressive list of books you've written. And the subject matter is dearest to my heart.
Best wishes
