"While [people] are dreaming, they do not
perceive that it is a dream. Some will even have a dream in a dream, and
only when they awake they know it was all a dream. And so, when the
Great Awakening comes upon us, shall we know this life to be
a great dream. Fools believe themselves to be awake now. Once upon a
time, I, Chuang-Tzu, dreamed I was a butterfly, fluttering hiter and
thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. I was conscious only
of following my fancies as a butterfly, and was unconscious of my
individually as a butterfly. Suddenly I was awakened, and there I lay
myself again. Now I do not know whether I was a man dreaming I was a
butterfly, or whether I am a butterfly now dreaming I am a man."
- Chuang-Tzu

Lucid dreaming: a state of consciousness with features of both waking
and non-lucid dreaming. Our data show that lucid dreaming constitutes a
hybrid state of consciousness with definable and measurable differences
from waking and from REM sleep, particularly in frontal areas. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19750924
