Origin
One day, Zhuang Zhou had a dream. In his dream, he was a butterfly that flies between beautiful flowers. But when he suddenly awoke from the dream, he was again in the form of Zhuang Zhou. Did Zhuang Zhou become the butterfly in his dream? Or, was Zhunag Zhou the butterfly in reality, and he, the butterfly, became Zhuang Zhou in his dream?
Is dream a reality? Is reality a dream?
At the end of the pursuit of truth, why not life itself a dream?
