Dreams Within Dreams

During sleep, we dream. Sometimes, we day dream too! The dream is not possible, unless we are present as a dreamed object or witness therein, amidst myriad illusions, over which we have no control. What we do have, if we are cognisant, is awareness that all manifestations are but fleeting thought forms of our own creation, knowing the underlying oneness of all forms manifest. So far, so good! We, the dreamer, then awake from one dream into another ad infinitum, until all desire borne thought forms, upon exhaustion, melt into the void of no-thingness.
