The separate identity illusion...

If all that we see in dreams is we ourselves,

then why do we see ourselves even in dreams as an identity separate from all other things before us in the dream?

The answer is,

"Because the soul
is deluded by our external form, and it recognizes this picture as `I'.

All other images and forms manifesting before it in the dream stand in contrast to this `I'."
