What does Zhu Zhai mean by growing moss in his dream when he sleeps and listens to the rain?

Living in a bamboo house, sleeping at night and hearing the rain outside, I seem to see moss growing in my dream.

Listening to the Rain by Fang Yue in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Zhu Zhai sleeps and listens to the rain, and moss grows in dreams. Opposite the lonely mountain, idle birds don't guess.

Living in a bamboo building, sleeping at night and hearing the rain outside. I seem to see moss growing in my dream, and the surrounding environment is very quiet. Only a mountain away from the author, my body and mind are so quiet that I don't even doubt birds.

The poet fell asleep in the rain and even grew moss in his dream. His mind and body were so calm that he never even doubted birds. In the realm of listening to the rain, the poet lost himself in "things", his body and mind were completely materialized, and the world no longer existed. Rain brings people from the noisy world into poetic habitation. Although there is no word Zen, Zen can be seen everywhere.
