..Sleeping and Waking States...

Just as the objects seen in our dreams are found, when we awake, to be insubstantial,,so our waking perceptions are likewise unreal......a matter of inference only.......When a man compares his ideas relating to gross matters conceived in the wakeful state with his conception of ideas in dream,, the similarity existing between them naturally leads him to conclude that this external world also is not what it appears to be......When he looks for further explanation, he finds that all his wakeful conceptions are substantially nothing but mere ideas caused by the union of five objects of sense with the five organs of sense....This union is effected by the operation of Mind and conceived or grasped by the Intelligence...Thus , it is clear that all conceptions which man forms in his wakeful state are mere inferential...............
