that seems a really weird question to ask, right?
but let's take a look at the function of sleep, and more specifically, the dreaming:
so sleeping/dreaming, at heart, is about healing various distortions that have occurred due to a misalignment of action.
but if someone is fully aware, are they not in full alignment? would they not get out of sync in the conscous state which necessitates the reforming of the conscious-unconscious bridge in which to dream? In other words, would such an individual already be fully connected to their unconscious?
I do remember reading in I Am That, that the western world gives too much emphasis on the conscious state, and does not value the unconscious state (ie sleep) enough. Perhaps that attitude is seeping through into my question about requiring/needing less sleep.

Quote:The activity of dreaming is an activity in which there is made a finely wrought and excellently fashioned bridge from conscious to unconscious.
In this state the various distortions which have occurred in the energy web of the body complex, due to the misprecision with which energy influxes have been received, are healed.
With the proper amount of dreaming comes the healing of these distortions. Continued lack of this possibility can cause seriously distorted mind/body/spirit complexes.
