       OMG, it's hitting me.....waves of realization pressing through.
       The community/no-community lucid dream with lucidity gaining
       ground until the awakening....the layered metaphors point at
       themselves.    I'm dreaming.....right now.  Or, rather, I am
       being dreamed......right now.  As I'm typing this.  All this
       *gestures to body-self....setting that self is sitting
       in....computer screen with "INVISIBLE GURU FORUM" in top left
       corner of screen.....letters/words appearing  in white box as
       typing"....is a thread of woven dream interpretation of alarm
       clock....before actual alarm clock wakes me up.
       Just like previous lucid dream....I can't believe I'm
       dreaming/being dreamed right now.  It's so real!  Pre-dawn
       meditation/contemplation led me to this cresting/emerging
       incredulous dawning awareness.  Wait a minute.....what's going
       on?!  What IS THIS!??  I look at my left hand and ask "It" to
       show me that I'm dreaming/being dreamed....RIGHT NOW.
       Slowly....as if grudgingly.....my left thumb disappears.
       Fingers disappearing has always been my go to confirmation that
       I'm dreaming to solidify lucidity as its dawn....particularly in
       the case when the me that's being dreamed can't believe it's
       dreaming....or being dreamed.
       All of this.......all of it...is the dream, dawning lucidity
       notwithstanding, perpetuating itself as long as possible before
       awakening.  My god, the layers!!  This is just.........insane.
       I can't believe it.  It's so real...

       The lucid dreaming living metaphor is the best or closest, IMHO,
       to representing what's actually going on.
       For me (the only one who's here, apparently....and BTW who am I
       even posting this for?  IDK! Dream forum full of dreamed
       NPC's....oh well, just go with it), it's the metaphor that
       strikes home in the most direct and simple way.
       Interestingly....the metaphor plays out with a
       paradoxical/ironic moebius strip plot twist.  In the context of
       the dream in which the dreamed character becomes lucid.....and
       then finally awakens.....the awakening is, in truth, a false
       one...and misleading due to the fact that "awakening" from a
       lucid dream gives the impression that one truly is....awake!  To
       clarify...false awakening within a dream (many may recognize
       this, having had false awakenings) is another beautiful
       metaphor/indicator.  "False awakening" in context of lucid
       dreaming vernacular, involves dreaming a dream to then "awaken"
       within the dream in another dream...believing that one has truly
       awoken...and yet is still dreaming.  That's the indicator within
       the dream pointing to the fact that when the dreamer awakens to
       daily awareness....e.g. me sitting here typing right now (in
       which I've already proven is a dream given the disappearing
       thumb trick)....is actually a false awakening.  In fact, I am
       closer to True Awakening when this false person is dreaming to
       then become lucid to then start to emerge from the dream.  It's
       at that point that the emerging awakening gets hijacked into a
       false awakening....which is daily awareness...in which, in
       Truth, I am still dreaming....or being dreamed!  This is crazy!
       But this is the way to unravel it, I believe/have a hunch.
       Bearing down with awareness, from moment to dreaming moment, on
       this fact.  I'm dreaming....right now.  *performs body breath,
       mind-awake/body asleep technique while sitting at computer*
       Looking back on the prior community/no community dream.....first
       of all, noting that the dream community helped provide the
       context for lucidity to emerge.  So, yes.....perhaps there are
       dreaming scenarios which provide optimal circumstances to ensure
       dawning lucidity....and then awakening.  But, in Truth, this is
       the Dreamer's way of weaving the state of actual progressive
       awakening....into the dream being dreamed.  The Dreamers dreams
       of a school....or community within which lucidity emerges and
       true awakening dawns.  Less harsh, perhaps, then the Dreamer
       dreaming of getting killed with a gunshot or car accident, I
       guess.
       So....thus, the potency, I feel....in dreaming Jed's dream
       instruction to dream the body breathing (there is no body apart
       from the dreamed body) and intent to mind-awake/body-asleep
       rhythm with the body breathing.  Within the dream, it engenders
       stillness and gathers awareness at the same time.  The stillness
       melts away perceived activity which helps engender the belief
       that the dream body amidst the dream world it is acting
       within....is real/awake.  OOOOhhhh....just looked down at the
       reflection of my computer screen in the surface of the glass
       desk top....creating a parenthetical rainbow light inflection in
       which the epicenter shifts when I move my head...the point of
       perspective...back and forth.  LOL!  It's holographic!  Now
       train whistle in the distance....all this pointing to the
       apparent fact....I am dreaming.  Anyways....body
       breathing/mind-awake and body-asleep technique...similar to
       phenomenon, I feel, in previous lucid dream in which I became
       still....stood in the living room....alone...in a place
       previously filled with the dream community before lucidity had
       everyone vanish...and, in becoming still....I woke up.  Or at
       least dreamed that I woke up!
       Whoa....this is all very disorienting.  AS it should be.  I
       gotta stop for now....I'll be back.  Unless I wake up...in which
       all this disappears.  My god....the compulsion to keep dreaming
       is STRONG!  Maya, madesmoiselle.....you got bones, sister.  Very
       potent spell, I must say....

       :D  My god, the ironic involuting, tongue-firmly-in-cheek, knee
       slapping joke of it all.  Gives brand spanking new meaning to
       the notion "collapsing in laughter"
       I click to Yahoo Mail, looking for response (so many variegated
       importances and engendering global identities in "looking for
       response" ....just a begging for a vanishing ;) )  when I see
       banner pasted across empty page....
       "HOORAY!  Inbox zero"
       I mean.....just...........wow!  WOW! LOL  Again, the layers of
       realization wash over like a curling wave.
       I'm done......all gone *dusts hands, shows empty palms like
       toddler in a high chair*
       Deep gratitude for all you figments and filaments of my
       imagination....all exquisite, transient expressions of Infinity.
       I bid you adieu.  And leave with this video gem, which somehow
       encapsulates so much in a way in which I cannot describe or
       really comprehend....
