The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

These two spheres are [also] experienced in sleep; but [in sleep] they are not different spheres; they are only different because they are experienced in sleep. They are Malakut, which is experienced in dreams, the world of mind, of thought and imagination; and Jabarut, the state of deep sleep when even the mind is still. This sleep frees the suffering patient from pain, and gives to the prisoner freedom from his prison; it takes away from the mind its load of worry and anxiety, and removes from the body every exhaustion and tiredness, bringing to mind and body repose, rest and peace; so that after man has wakened from his deep sleep he feels comfortable, rested, invigorated, as if a new life had come to him. One would give anything in the world to have a deep sleep, though so few know its value.
