Answer 2

It is amazing to me that we all consign ourselves to sleep every night without fear or any realization that one has no internal willed ability to awaken the next morning. Sleep is a state of unconsciousness not unlike death which we do not fear even though we have no willful ability to recover from it. Some one or something else has to bring us back to consciousness. To me this waking experience each and every morning is a mystical experience. We take it for granted that we will awaken but it is a miracle that we do for the unconsciousness of sleep like that of death is a cessation of our entire will to be. What happens to each of us and where we go during sleep (same during death) is not known.
