The devotee said, “If something appeared to one in a dream, how could it appear to someone else in the waking state?”
“Why not?” said Bhagavan. “That is also a dream, though of a different sort. Like the pictures that appear on a screen, everything that appears is the creation of the mind. In reality one is not any one of those things. In this unreal world, which is like a doll’s play, it is better to forget everything rather than remember that one was that doll or this picture.”
