In which Proust, Valery, and Benjamin say much about the Disturbances at the End of Sleep
Heller-Roazen, Daniel, The Inner Touch, Archaeology of a Sensation, Zone Books MIT Press, 2007.
Chapter 7.
Awakening discusses the state where one is departing the sleeping world, and entering the waking world. At this state, ones orientation is determined by their present bodily position in the waking world, and their bodily position prior to their sleeping state.
the state which one is awaking is one which one becomes, new a waking being. This being is new each time one wakes. In the inner world, which Nada describes in the course outline, the blur between 'awake' and 'asleep', is a threshold where one is not composed yet as a waking inner body in the outer world. The geographical context of the outer body truly determines the inner body and outer body coherence in the state of waking.
The outer body is the constant, however in both the waking/sleep worlds.
