Waking Up from the Dream State
What we call the normal waking state, many spiritual sages have called the dream state. We assume that we all perceive the same external world which we take to be real and objective. The perceptions themselves are not illusory; it is the stories that we tell ourselves about what is happening where the distortion occurs. That distortion is dreamlike in that it is only happening in our own heads; Others are experiencing a different inner narrative. It is this dreamlike narrative that we wake up from.
