You are not in a dream.
Some scientists say that the brain processes are the same when you are in REM sleep (dreaming) and no different to when you are awake. Because they say there is no difference, they then conclude that you could theoretically be dreaming or be in some higher beings dream, you could not tell the difference.
What is wrong with the above statement?
It is wrong because there is a difference between dreaming and the awake state. You are not in a state of dreaming or in a waking state as two separate things. They are two different states within a whole you.
The conceptual analogy I use is a car with the engine running.
It can be stationary (analogy dreaming) or moving (analogy awake).
If you just look at the engine only, you may conclude that there is no difference between a stationary car or a moving car because the engine is the same, you could then wrongly conclude that you can not tell between a stationary car or moving car.
If you look at the whole car, then you can see there is a difference between a stationary car and a moving car. The scientists will say that you can only tell from the outside by a reference outside the car (or the body), but this is also wrong. You can still tell whether the car is stationary or moving without reference to the outside, as you can with the dream or awake state.
The answer to the car is simply whether the gear is engaged or not (if engaged you are moving, otherwise you are stationary, even though the engine is still on).
Both the dream state and the awake state are 'Real' and not some other beings dream (which is abstract), because you can tell whether you are dreaming within the dream state itself (most people can not, and are unaware how). In other words : - if you can tell you are dreaming when you are dreaming, and you can tell when you are awake when you are awake, then you know both are 'Real' and are apart of you and not some other beings dream.
How can you tell you are in a dream or awake?
Apart from knowing the actual internal mechanism (the gear equivalent).
It is fairly simple.
If you are awake you definitely know you are awake, there is a certain feeling when you are awake and you know it.
When you are dreaming you do not always remember or are consciously aware you are dreaming, but when you are conscious of the dream as it is happening you still can not tell whether you are dreaming or awake.
Therefore when you are awake you know you are awake, and if you are not sure if you are awake or dreaming, then you are dreaming! You can do this consciously in a dream and know it is a dream.
So there is an internal mechanism that dictates the two different states.
