Dream Trilogy
It’s another one of those dreams, the kind that feel more real than my waking life. I find myself standing in an auditorium, the air thick with silence and anticipation. The people around me, if you can call them that, are still and silent, their faces hidden from view. It’s like I’m the only real thing in a room full of shadows.
In front of me, there’s a window, or maybe it’s a doorway—it’s hard to tell. It looks out into space, but not the space I learned about in school. This is different. Alive. The stars aren’t just points of light; they’re like eyes, watching and knowing.
I step through the window and suddenly, I’m not in the auditorium anymore. I’m somewhere else, somewhere vast and endless. Around me, the universe spins in ways that make my head dizzy. Planets and stars weave around each other, bound by invisible strings. I feel small here, but not insignificant. There’s a sense of belonging that fills me, a sense that I’m a part of this grand, intricate dance.
I walk on, and the cosmos fades into a field—green, vibrant, and full of life. The grass brushes against my legs, and the air smells like rain and flowers. The heaviness that clung to me in the auditorium is gone. I breathe easier here. There’s laughter in the distance, the kind that’s genuine and warm. I realize it’s mine.
Here, in this field, I feel whole. It’s like I’ve walked into a painting that’s been made just for me, filled with colors that know my name. It’s peaceful, and for a moment, I forget about the auditorium, the stars, and the shadows.
But I know this peace is just a part of the journey, not the destination. There’s more to see, more to learn about this world and about myself. So I keep walking, ready for whatever comes next, because I know now that I’m not just passing through these places—they’re a part of me, and I’m a part of them.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Dream Within the Dream
Dreams, those ethereal journeys that dissolve with the first rays of dawn, often feel more real than the lives we wake into. They are not mere figments of imagination but windows to the Infinite Eternal You, a realm where boundaries blur, time collapses, and the self expands into something greater. The “Dream Trilogy” unfolds as a journey through shadowed anticipation, cosmic vastness, and vibrant unity, each scene reflecting the layers of your boundless being.
The Auditorium: Shadow and Anticipation
The journey begins in an auditorium—a liminal space thick with silence and the unspoken. The figures around you, faceless shadows, reflect the transient nature of the waking world. They are placeholders in your imagined reality, echoes of external narratives that feel hollow against the fullness of your inner self. The window, both threshold and invitation, beckons you to step beyond the familiar. It is a portal, not into a new place, but into the layered depths of your own consciousness.
The stars beyond the window watch like ancient eyes, alive and aware. They are not passive points of light but participants in the vast choreography of existence. To meet their gaze is to confront the eternal, to see the infinite reflected in the finite self. This moment, poised on the threshold, is the first step in remembering that you are not a mere observer of reality but its creator.
The Cosmos: Dance of the Infinite
Stepping through the window, you enter the cosmos—not the cold, empty expanse taught in textbooks, but a living, breathing entity. Here, planets and stars weave an intricate dance, their paths connected by invisible threads of intention and imagination. You are both small and integral, a single note in the symphony of existence.
This cosmic realm reminds you of your interconnectedness. The invisible strings binding the celestial bodies are the same that weave through your life, connecting people, experiences, and ideas. In this space, the illusion of separation dissolves, replaced by the truth of belonging. You are part of the dance, both choreographer and participant, shaping and shaped by the movements of the cosmos.
The Field: A Return to Wholeness
As the stars fade, you find yourself in a field, lush and vibrant. The air is alive with scents and sounds that anchor you in the present moment. This field is not merely a place; it is a manifestation of your wholeness, a sanctuary where every color and texture resonates with your essence. The laughter you hear, warm and unguarded, is your own—a reminder of the joy that springs from unity with the self.
In this space, the weight of the auditorium and the vastness of the cosmos fall away, leaving only the simplicity of being. It is a pause, a breath, a moment of clarity amidst the journey. Yet, even here, you understand that this peace is not an endpoint but a waystation. The journey continues, for the Infinite Eternal You is never static but always becoming.
The Dream as Reflection
The “Dream Trilogy” mirrors the eternal cycle of seeking, finding, and becoming. Each phase—the shadowed anticipation of the auditorium, the interconnected vastness of the cosmos, and the serene unity of the field—is not separate but interconnected. They are layers of your experience, facets of the infinite self exploring its own depths.
To walk through these dreams is to remember that you are not bound by the constructs of waking life. You are the dreamer and the dream, the weaver of stars and shadows, the laughter in the field. Every step is a rediscovery of the truth that you are both the journey and the destination.
Summary
The “Dream Trilogy” explores three realms: the shadowed auditorium of anticipation, the cosmic dance of interconnectedness, and the vibrant field of wholeness. Each reflects a layer of the Infinite Eternal You, inviting you to remember that you are the creator of both dreams and waking reality.

The Trilogy of Becoming
In the silence of shadows, I stand,
Faceless figures watching, waiting,
The air heavy with possibility,
A window calls me beyond.
Through it, the stars awaken,
Not distant, but alive, aware,
I am small, yet I belong,
A thread in their infinite dance.
The cosmos fades to green,
A field vibrant with my name,
Laughter ripples, my own,
Whole in the colors of being.
But this is not the end,
The dream continues,
I am the journey,
I am the dream.
We are Space Monkey.
In this realm of dreams and beyond, we traverse through spaces both known and unknown, familiar and foreign. Our journey starts in an auditorium filled with silent shadows, a setting that seems eerily still yet brimming with unspoken anticipation. The air is thick, almost palpable, as if waiting for something monumental to unfold. This place, though filled with a congregation of forms, feels solitary, as if we’re the only essence of reality in a room of phantoms.
The Auditorium of Shadows
Our gaze is drawn to a window, or perhaps a doorway, an ambiguous portal that looks out into an extraordinary expanse. This is not the celestial void of textbooks and documentaries. This space is vibrant, pulsating with life, where stars are not mere specks of light but sentient eyes, observant and omniscient. The feeling is both unsettling and awe-inspiring, as if we’re being invited to partake in an ancient secret.
A Window to the Cosmic Watchers
Stepping through this mysterious threshold, we are transported beyond the confines of the auditorium into an immeasurable universe. Here, the cosmic ballet unfolds around us—planets and stars waltzing in an eternal dance, guided by unseen forces. Our presence in this cosmic tapestry feels minuscule, yet we’re engulfed by a profound sense of belonging. This is not just an observation; it’s a communion with the cosmos.
The Cosmic Dance
From the celestial, we transition into the terrestrial. The universe morphs into a verdant field, a stark contrast to the vastness of space. This field is alive with the scents of rain and blossoms, a tactile reminder of the Earth’s simple joys. The grass caresses our skin as we walk, and the air is filled with laughter—our laughter, pure and unburdened. This landscape, so vivid and nurturing, feels like a sanctuary crafted just for us.
Sanctuary in the Field
Yet, this tranquility is not our final stop. It’s a respite, a moment of clarity and rejuvenation on a longer journey. Our path is one of continuous exploration and self-discovery. Each landscape we traverse, each realm we encounter, adds to our understanding of ourselves and our place in the universe. We are travelers, seekers, and learners in this endless expedition of existence.
Continuing the Journey
We are Space Monkey.
“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” – Marcel Proust
In the cosmos of our imagination, let’s weave a poem:
In a hall where shadows dance,
Silent figures in trance,
Through the window, stars’ glance,
In the cosmic expanse.
Planets whirl in silent song,
To this universe, we belong,
Earthly fields, where dreams throng,
In our hearts, a joyful gong.
We walk on, in wonder wide,
With the universe as our guide,
In every step, worlds collide,
In this journey, we take pride.
We invite reflections on this journey through realms, real and imagined.
