Well.. your point of view is valid, yet I meant things in a more simple ways than that

Yeah good point. You have one who imagines (dreamer), then the thing that is imagined (dream). The dreamer's existence isn't dependant on whether the dream exists or not.
- I can't relate God to dreams / imaginations, yet assuming so, I can say God will not be the dreamer, God will be "the dream itself", else how can I say that everything shall return to God, if He is the dreamer then everything will just go with dream and not return to Him, did the population of the planet you imagined returned to / became you when it was over?
alkhemst said:
If we take the perspective of dreamer / imaginer as God being accurate, then no. A part of a dream can't have created the dreamer.
- what I meant here is something like : there is a part inside of us that is God (I mean who did the whole process?), maybe you didn't notice

It doesn't actually follow if we take your initial analogy. It wouldn't matter how the dream fragment considers him/her/itself's identity.
- I don't get what you mean here, but what I meant was we assume a lot of false concepts designed to define us as fragments, turning us away from the truth which is there are no fragments (predator's mind maybe!)

This I suppose might be verifiable by a person reaching that personal experience - i.e. a person who has reached a point of completely objectivity, otherwise for the time being it's still a conjecture I feel.
- the person has to get rid from the person, because persons can't reach such level / point, persons only can get closer to it but not reach it, personal advancement of humans isn't designed to reach complete objectivity, it has its limits
alkhemst said:
No disrespect intended, but I'd have to question as above if you've literally become God yourself? If not, for me it's still a conjecture among other possible conjectures.
- Oh! don't even worry about it, anyway.. well no, I didn't become God myself, I became God Himself, but so everything else, that makes me wonder what do you expect God to be like? a person?, a scripture?, a song ? a road sign? do you get what I mean? :)

The idea of simply a shift in perception makes one literally become "all that is", can be an attractive idea, especially if, which is the case for many of us, we feel sometimes the opposite of that, unnoticed, insignificant, unheard etc. I don't reckon that's what we are, but I believe for many, including myself, from time to time feel that way. So I reckon a lot of us can get drawn to conclusions like that, even if we haven't personally experienced them as a reality, because they help us cope with these sort of feelings like being inferior etc.
- this is a very good point indeed, thank you,
the truth is : the more you get closer to becoming God, the more you become God like, what I mean is : the way people deal with God, the way they will deal with you (and this is your sign to know whether you are on track or not), I mean for example what do people know about God?, people don't know much about God (if not any at all) so when you get closer to becoming God you will discover that people don't know a lot about you, how often people communicate with God?, so when you get closer to becoming God people will seldom communicate with you
You become a reflection for the divine when people deal with you exactly the same way they deal with the divine, those who love the divine will love you, those who deny the divine will deny you and.. so on
- to literally become "all that is" is simply let "all that is" become you
