ABSTRACT
Once I, Zhuang Zhou, dreamt that I was a butterfly fluttering about happily. I did not know that I was Zhou. Suddenly, I awoke, and there I was, Zhou again. I did not know whether it was Zhou dreaming that he was a butterfly or a butterfly dreaming that it was Zhou. Between Zhou and a butterfly there must be a difference. This is called the transformation of things (Zhuangzi 2).1
