Life is but a dream.

Chuang-tzu dreamt that he was a butterfly, fluttering here and there, care free, unaware of Chuang-tzu.  Then he woke up, and there he was again: Chuang-tzu, beyond a doubt.
But was he Chuang-tzu who had dreamt that he was a butterfly, or a butterfly now dreaming that he was Chuang-tzu?  There must be some difference between Chuang-tzu and a butterfly!  This is called "the transformation of things."
