Now it's interesting to watch myself saying this because I spent many years and much energy exploring various paths of enlightenment. And during that time, I believed that "other people needed to know such things too". But I'm much more relaxed about all of it now. All seems perfectly fine as it is. I use my creativity to manifest all sort of things in all sorts of directions. I favor certain qualities, but it's no more crucial than a painting on a canvas. It is my/this art. I do not obsess over it or claim to know what a much larger cosmic canvas is or must be... or what "I" or others are in relationship to that... because it all appears to be one, shimmering from different levels and facets like sunlight on water. There is no need to define or focus on any separateness or time EXCEPT for this world stage... and this world stage is a playground to dream and sleep and awake and dream some more. It doesn't matter because it's all one. That's my guess.
Life neither is dreaming nor dreams, life flows and the flow of life (light) manifests an illusory auditory and optical illusion of dreams to an illusory man and only in the illusory mind of a human being. Life has no intentions, because life which is light has no cause. Only that which has cause has intention, which is the ego. And the ego is an auditory illusion of sound. Life has manifested sound that appears as knowledge and beliefs, albeit illusory. This means the dreams and knowledge only appear to be present to an illusory man but are not actually present.
