QUESTION ASKED : Even after awakening happens from the dream of illusion, why do awakened individuals experience thoughts and emotions which actually belong to the 'dream experiencer ' and not to Awareness or Being which these ' individuals' are ?
MY VIEWS : An awakened individuals is experiencing the experience of thoughts and emotions like a spectator because he understood that its an illusion and does not get dragged into that experiencing illusion.
An actor when acting gets into the character and assume ownself to be that character and thus gives the best acting performance.
In the same way an awakened individual need to understand the intensity of the impact of an event thru its thoughts and emotions and then only he / she can understand and learn about its impact on an individual human being.
We know that a movie is virtual and not real but still we go to see it and enjoy the virtual performance. We enjoy that performance seen on the screen because it’s an amalgamation of action and music and art effects.
One will not love to see the movie without sound as the sound emphasise the emotion of every scene.
In the same way the emotions emphasise the intensity and impact of each event and without emotion is like a soundless movie.
The thought gives a dimension and it’s the movie and emotions is the sound.
These thoughts and emotion help an awakened individual to understand and learn more about attachment and detachment in life and how human beings gets impacted by it and what is the way out of these.
In order to learn from the experience, one need to get into the experienced and understand the experience well.
It is like to experience how dream is, one need to go into the dream first and then experience the dream.
An awakened individual need not go into deep sleep to get into dream and forget it after waking. No, they can remain fully aware and enter into dream and experience it.
Thakur Shri Ramkrishna said that every thing we see and touch is all unreal / virtual an illusion. But we are still born here and even Thakur Shri Ramkrishna was also born here.
So, understanding about the illusion is very important and that an be understood in part by part by giving it a dimension by our thoughts and emotions.
I am not an expert of this subject but I tried to present my view as I understood the question and my understanding on it.
