Has anyone been caught with the unexpected urge to sleep while occupying oneself with The Work, the matrix control system or related studies? By this, I mean reading, researching or conversing on topics that are covered on SOTT, Cassiopaea and this forum? I, for one, have noticed for many years that while reading on something that relates to the matrix control system or working on something that incorporates this (i.e. my novel), I am always overcome with a need to sleep - regardless of my health or whether I have had adequate sleep.
Now I have come across examples of "ringing in the ears", but I had never considered the possibility that perhaps these seemingly random urges to sleep were connected with what I was doing at the time. Imagine my surprise when I read the following:
So, in Ark's case, the failure appears to have a genetic basis. But what is the cause of the "energy surge" that short circuits the hypothalamus? I suspect I may share the same condition, as may others. This coil failure sounds like a great way to prevent people from accomplishing anything important in a hurry. However, pushing against the sleepiness does seem to work. It's not easy, but there is always coffee ;)
Does anyone else have the same problem?

After reading the above, I am curious of what activities made Ark sleepy. But nonetheless, I could completely relate to what he was describing - except for the white hair factor (give me a chance, I'm only 22!) :PSession 10-05-01
(A) This is an ordinary question about my state of affairs, about this sleepiness, because once in a while it becomes very strong. There are probably many ingredients for this, yet I would like to know which has the most importance. What about this sleepiness when it's time to do research?
A: "Coil failure."
Q: (A) What coil? Coil failure? Do I have a coil in my brain?
A: Hypothalamus.
[Sitting beneath the cerebral hemispheres are the thalamus and hypothalamus. The thalamus is a relay center between the periphery and the cortex. It receives sensory information from virtually every region of the body, filters all of the information, and then relays the filtered portion to the cerebral cortex. The hypothalamus functions much like the thalamus, but mediates its actions by controlling the release of hormones by the pituitary gland. Its major functions include regulation of body temperature, adjusting heart and respiratory rates, and stimulation and inhibition of eating and drinking.]
Q: What kind of failure?
A: Energy surge causes short circuit.
Q: (A) But this phenomenon sometimes was going on for weeks or months.
A: Yes.
Q: (A) Why is it certain activities keep me awake, and certain others make me sleep?
A: Failure has a genetic basis. [Pause] Push against.
Q: (L) What does pushing against this tendency accomplish?
A: Unlocks DNA.
Q: (L) Anything specific that would be beneficial other than just pushing against it?
A: Aging stumps the brain that is unused.
Q: (L) In other words use it or lose it. (A) But I had exactly the same phenomenon like twenty years ago. Is there anything else that will help, other than pushing against it and forcing it to unlock DNA?
A: Not really you must overcome some things on your own steam.
Q: (L) What will be the benefits once he pushes past this?
A: Faculties jacked up a big step higher.
Q: (L) How long will it last if he struggles with it whenever he needs to sleep? This is my idea but - just struggling against it. That's the only way I can describe it.
A: Yes.
Q: (L) I don't think it does any good to walk away from it. If you have to lie down, then struggle while lying down. Take a book with you and battle the sleepiness. If you fall asleep, keep the book handy and the instant you wake up, go back to it. (A) Alright, that confirms what I know. Let's change the subject. Last time we talked, you told us about 1969. Somehow I couldn't find...
A: Hair is key.
Q: (L) Huh? [To A] When did your hair turn white? (A) I have no idea? (L) Did it happen gradually? I think that refers back to the genetic thing. (A) We have this photograph of when I was writing on the blackboard. I still had dark hair. But I had gray hair already when I was in school. So, probably it started turning when I was about 32. I have no idea. (A) Why is hair the key? What kind of key?
A: Gene block activation.
Q: (L) Gene block activation. (A) What does that mean? (L) Is that activated externally or just internally because of the way the genes where set up. Was a gene block activated by something external?
A: Force, yes.
Q: (L) Are there any nutrients or activities that will be beneficial?
A: Spirulina.
So, in Ark's case, the failure appears to have a genetic basis. But what is the cause of the "energy surge" that short circuits the hypothalamus? I suspect I may share the same condition, as may others. This coil failure sounds like a great way to prevent people from accomplishing anything important in a hurry. However, pushing against the sleepiness does seem to work. It's not easy, but there is always coffee ;)
