The truth is
the dream is always what ‘right now’ is; it is always ‘on,’ and it features ‘the dreamers’ mostly using time to play the part of ‘real people’ by pretending they forgot there is no one to be anything at all, let alone a person. The dream precludes the possibility anything is any more real than content in this dream. This dream features ‘the dreamers’ occupying the full spectrum of knowing, from those who know and never forget to those who know and depict ‘not knowing’ so convincingly they are immune to the truth they are dreamers delivering a personhood charade in a dream.
This dream, the one the dreamers, posing as people, refer to as “reality” is not about people. That’s not possible. As Hui Neng said way back in the dream, “from the beginning, not a thing is.” That dreamer wasn’t kidding when he made his statement, and the Buddha wasn’t kidding when he said “all life (in the dream) is about suffering” (because no dreamer can ever be anything but what it is). The same holds true for Wei Wu Wei. The telling of the truth reflects the stages of his awakening in the dream, but by the time you reach the end of the series, he is one with the truth that this Mind-generated dream is all about ‘the dreamers’ and what they do in this dream to pretend to be ‘real people’. Lies can’t cancel truth. No trick, no matter how clever on the dreamer’s part, can turn a dreamer in a dream into any kind of a person. The dream is a cliff hanger because ‘the dreamers’ resist truth and cling to lies as if someone’s life is at stake. This is what most dreamers get to do in this dream. This is ‘the plot’ in this dream, and, because no dreamer can ever be anything but what it is, the option to ‘wake up’ is imminent. You are a dreamer stuck in the fiction you are a person, or you show signs of ‘waking up’ in this dream.
