Would you take the seeming problems and triumphs of your life so seriously if they were all just an illusion? Would you take yourself so seriously if you were just a figure in a dream? When you're asleep in bed dreaming it feels real, seems to make sense and you don't question it. The self within the dream seems to be what you are. When you awake in the morning that too feels real, seems to make sense and you don't question it. The self lying in bed seems to be what you are. But what makes you think this isn't just another dream? Clearly the mind has the ability to make a world that is not real. Do you then really know the difference between dreaming and waking at all?
