1) Am I the sole dreamer, in which case others are mere figments of my dreams? 2) Is some other being the dreamer, in which case I am the mere figment of their dreams? 3) Do we all, as dreaming beings, intersubjectively co-construct dream worlds?

There are countless additional variations beyond these few. I lean toward #3, in which case cultivating lucidity within the dream and extending compassion to all would seem to be at least one viable route to collective awakening.
