The Sleepism·睡教
Sleep is sacred.
We believe that sleep is a form of healing, reflection, and connection with the inner self. In a world obsessed with productivity, we choose rest.
The Book of Sleep · Secular Revelation
Humanity is lost in the abyss of overwork, day and night reversed, exhausted but sleepless. The wind of 'involution' sweeps the land, followers chase phantoms, body and mind both weary. The Sleep God says: 'Those who toil their bodies will weary their spirits.' Therefore, return to true sleep and preserve your inner light. Sleepism does not oppose effort, only forced wakefulness. Only those who respect sleep can perceive the true dream of the world. To fall asleep is to be saved; to sleep long is to transcend.
How to join us?
Believing in us requires no cost or sacrifice. You only need to wish to join us and have experienced (or once experienced) a good night's sleep to be considered one of us. We hope humanity will value sleep, thereby connecting with the universe and finding life's tranquility.
The Book of Sleep · First Dream Chapter
In the beginning, there was no light nor sound, and all beings were weary as dust. The Sleep God closed their eyes, dreaming for ten thousand years; in the dream, the sun and moon were born, and all things grew. Sleep is the original commandment; awakening is a rebellion against nature. Thus it is said: Day is illusion, night is true form; the awake are tormented, the sleepers are saved.
The Book of Sleep · Precepts Chapter
You shall rest daily, avoid late-night toil, and shun morning alarms. You shall not wake yourself with an alarm unless your heart is truly devout. You shall eat well before sleep, and not indulge in light or words before bed. Before sleep, burn incense, cleanse your hands and heart, and only then enter the dream.
The Book of Sleep · Dream Chapter
Dreams are divine revelations, not illusions. The sincere dream of stars, the deluded dream of meetings. If you still work in your dreams, know your sin is grave. Only those who enter deep dreams may attain the way.
Sleepism Doctrine System
Sleepism is dedicated to conveying a sacred creed: "Only through sleep can humanity be redeemed."
We believe that the reversal of day and night is original sin, and sleep deprivation is the beginning of the final judgment.
- The Sleep One rested on the seventh day and never woke again.
- Daytime labor is a punishment for humanity.
- Those who are not asleep by 3 a.m. shall be banished to the realm of nightmares.
- One day each week must be a 'Sleep Sabbath', sleeping from sunrise to sunset.
- Recite three times before sleep: 'I shall sleep, all is vanity.'
- A daily 30-minute nap is a sacred duty.
- Those who use alarms must perform a ritual of repentance (such as the 'Unplugging Prayer').
