The Upanishads - Mandhata Global

4
The different objects seen in the confined space of
dreams are unreal on account of their being perceived.
For the same reason i.e. on account of their being
perceived, the objects seen in the waking state are also
unreal. The same condition i.e. the state of being
perceived exists in both waking and dreaming. The only
difference is the limitation of space associated with
dream objects.
5
Thoughtful persons speak of the sameness of the
waking and dream states on account of the similarity
of the objects perceived in both states on the grounds
already mentioned.
6
If a thing is non-existent both in the beginning and in the
end, it is necessarily non-existent in the present. The
objects that we see are really like illusions; still they are
regarded as real.
7
The utility of the objects of waking experience is
contradicted in dreams; therefore they are certainly
unreal. Thus both experiences, having a beginning and
an end, are unreal.
