Given that reality is Oneness and that it takes more than one to perceive anything, every experience is make-believe. It is like a dream, made of nothing and directed by no one.
Duality Hack #1.8 from the free eBook Alexius’ Duality Hacks
The world in a dream appears nowhere but in the brain. However, because this is momentarily suppressed from our awareness, the dream world seems to exist outside us. Especially when, in retrospect, we perceive its disorderly events as coherent by linking their discontinuity to past experiences, ideas of synchronicity, and other concepts we’re familiar with when awake.
Yet the world we perceive when awake is also a product of the brain – it’s only there. So if we had not learned to organise our experiences into a systematic world that appears as if it’s outside us, we would see our waking life as disordered and illusory as a dream – both fantasies made from nothing.

A world with more than one is an illusion temporarily superimposed on that which is One, so oneness appears non-existent as long as we believe in experiencing more than one. It’s like a dream that hides the world we see with our eyes open.

There’s no way to prove that the world in a dream is false, because everything within it, including the distances we observe and the appearances we see, is an illusion. Therefore, it all occurs within the one who experiences the dream, as our daytime experiences do.

Reality is oneness, as it is formless and thus endless. Consequently, if you see anything, you must be dreaming. [Photo: Alexius]
The experience of being an individual meeting like-minded ones in a world with more than one is like a dream in which you experience meeting others. In both cases, you don’t share this experience with them – only with yourself (see Duality Hack #12).

In dreams, things appear material even though the dream is immaterial. Likewise, we may believe there’s life in a world with more than one, although life is that which is One.

Attempting to manifest ourselves as definitive figures in a world defined by time and space is as though trying to be substantial in a dream world. In both cases, that’s impossible because those worlds are fantasy and therefore unsubstantial.

When you say ‘my body,’ you show it’s not you but something you think you have. So what are you? It’s like asking what you are in a dream. There is no answer, because you are not really there – you are lying in your bed.

If you feel stressed by a dream event, you’re mistaken. You’re relaxed in your bed, simply imagining being stressed elsewhere. The same applies when you’re awake and feeling stressed, except you’re not dreaming or taking part in an event, because that requires more than One, and there is no more than that which is One.
So, there’s no dream or anything else to undo. It only seems so when you believe in more than one. This is why Alexius’ Duality Hacks is neither about realising Oneness nor returning to it, but about having the belief in more than one undone. Then this belief no longer seems to hide that Oneness is all there is

Oneness can’t be seen, so it’s assumed to be hidden by a world with more than one. But Oneness seems hidden because you want to see it. Does this sound strange? Think of a dream. The characters in it can’t see the dreamer. Only what can’t be known in the dream is real.

Alexius’ Duality Hacks don’t come with dreamy whale sounds, fantasies of unconditional love, or pictures of lotus flowers. They don’t offer a better world, higher states of consciousness, or other dual-world concepts. They offer nothing but the bliss of nothing. That’s why they undo the belief in more than One.
