Great analogy or metaphors, depending on what way you perceive it (I am in practice)

Love the way you explained it for me.

Can I ask if after a state of more awareness say, do you feel more engaged with life in the tangible? I am asking because I am currently quite a hermit and I wonder if after reaching a more awareness state would I be more inclined to be the observer/dreamer/consciousness, or retreat even further? I understand again it's individual and I hope I am not prying too much.
