  "translated_text": "Within\n a dream,\nas long as\ndreaming\ngoes on,\nthere is\na dreamer.\nThe moment\nI identified myself\nwith my body\nor my mind,\nthe dream\nbegan.\nAnd so,\nyou,\nwe,\nthey,\nand everything\nin the world\nall became\npart of\nthe dream.\nAs long as\ndreaming\ngoes on,\nthe dreamer\ndoes not know\nwho they are.\nWhere they\ncame from,\nwhy they\nlive,\nand where they\nare going—\nall remains\ndark.\n\nFrom\nthe first thought\ncalled\n\"I,\"\n\nthe world\nof the dream\nunfolds.\nTherefore,\nthe only way\nto wake up\nfrom the world\nof the dream\nis to have\na life-or-death\nnightmare,\nstruggle\nto stay alive,\nthen wake up\nto find\nthat it was\na dream.\nWaking up\nfrom the dream\nreveals\nthat what is called\nthe self\ndoes not exist,\nand with no self,\nthere is no “I”\nto die.\nTherefore,\nthe problem\nof life and death\nis resolved\nonly by waking up\nfrom the dream\ncalled \nlife and death.\nPhilosophy,\nreligion,\nand spiritual practice—\nall are nothing but\npieces of the dream\nwoven by thought.\nThe dream\ncalled “I,”\nthe dream\ncalled life,\nthe dream\ncalled this world—\nto wake up\nfrom these dreams,\nthere must be\nsomeone\nto dispel\nthe dream.\nIt is true\nthat waking up\non one’s own\nis extremely \ndifficult.\nTherefore,\nonly one\nwho has awakened\ncan help\none\nwho is dreaming.\nA dream is\na world\nof illusion,\na world\nof falsehood,\na world\nthat goes on\nin darkness.\nThe world\nthat those\nwho have not woken up\nhave going\nin the dream\nis quite\na spectacle.\nNo matter how much \nthey eat, \n\nthey try \nto eat \nwhat never fills them,\n\nstruggling, \nfighting one another \nto claim it —\nwhere they live \nis a battlefield.\nTrying\nto possess\nwhat amounts\nto nothing,\nthey exhaust\nall their strength\nand end\ntheir lives\nfor nothing.\nNothing more  \nthan a fleeting dream.\nEven a society\ndriven by knowledge\nand information—\none that those\nwho are dreaming\nkeep creating—\nis nothing more\nthan a world\nwithin the dream.\nNo matter how noble\nor elevated\nit may be,\nit is still\nonly something\nthat happens\nin the dream.\nBecause they have not\nwoken up\nfrom the dream,\non the one hand\nthey seek God,\nwhile on the other\nthey can think of nothing\nbut preparing for war.\nDrama\nalways forms\ntwo sides—\nthe Blue Team\nand the White Team—\nand sets\na game\nin motion.\nThey decide\nwho wins\nand who loses,\nand try to decide\nwhat is good\nand what is evil.\nThis is how\nsleepwalkers behave.\nSystems,\ninstitutions,\nand laws—\nno matter how much\nthey tear them apart\nand remake them,\nno matter what\nthey do\nin the name\nof reform,\nit is all still\nwithin the dream.\nUnless they wake up\nfrom the dream,\nhappiness\nand peace\nare no more\nthan slogans\nwithin the dream.\nTo save\nhumanity,\nthere is no other way\nthan to wake humanity\nfrom the dream.\nTo wake\nothers,\nI myself must first\nwake up\nfrom the dream.\nI must become\none who is awake.\nFor me\nto become\none who is awake,\nthe shortest path \nis to meet\none who is awake\nand receive\nhis help.\nFor this,\nI have decided\nto devote\nmy life.\nIf there is\neven one person\nwho thinks,\n“I must wake up\n and live,”\nI will gladly\nhelp that person.\nOnce you wake up,\nthe dream\nis over.\nOnly when\nyou wake up\nand see for yourself\ndo you know\nthat even\nwhat is called\nspiritual practice\nor sustaining awakening\nbelongs\nto the dream.\nWaking up\nfrom the dream\ntakes no time.",
