Hello Legrand - I am in synch with you on this score. Given the punyness of our 'apparati' we can only 'humbly' think and/or intuit and speculate (make our 'best' uncertain bets) about said 'reason'.

Yes, in the sense that a 'dream' which is initially 'undreampt' must have e-merged (into an 'action'-movie) from the 'dreamer'.

Ahh, but your analogy operationally incorporates the same (solid)-sugar-is-something-that-can-be-separated-from-(oceanic-fluid)-water fallacy that the Unseeker (also) believes to be really true. IMO, you fail to 'see' (acknowledge?) the Oneness of ALL Life-Flow in doing so. Aspects of The (Dream) Flow may indeed be transformed (in terms of their psychospiritual 'color' or 'flavor'), but no aspect The (Dream) Flow is ever not a part of it. The idea that separation (i.e. disconnection) is possible is actually a 'heresy' (in terms of the Oneness theory , that is!). Something can only be 'left behind' figuratively speaking, not literally (i.e. not really!) Therefore:

is a false 'dream' (in the sense of it being missleading when it comes to the 'original' dream's real 'destiny').

I agree with this. Analagous to the way one can 'look at' and 'listen to' (something or other) to try to understand what it is about. Ideally (IMO) one would employ both 'knowledge' modalities.

Feels good, having another thoughtful player on stage.
