The great sage Padmasambhava said:
“The vision of this life is like last night’s dream. All meaningless actions are like ripples on a lake.”
The dream you had last night was so short; from beginning to end, it was over so quickly. In a dream you might feel as if you have been on a long journey or spent many years doing something, but actually, a dream is just a few minutes in duration. Whatever good things happen in a dream are also over quickly. This is one reason why Padmasambhava likens life to a dream—they both finish so quickly. Life is over so soon, like a dream.
