This is about the notion of being awake, of waking up. Many of you know that in Buddhism, the word Buddha comes from the Sanskrit word, Bodhi, which is often usually translated as to awaken. And the Buddha is a title, it's not a given name. It's his title because he's the one who's Bodhi, who's awakened. So he's the Buddha, the awakened one. So the idea of being awake is very important in Buddhism. And the opposite of that is that people are generally asleep; that the general sleepwalking.
