is our existence dream-dear nomadeva sir

[Guest guest]

dear nomadeva sir

 

yes we are trying to learn a lot. and i am only a small student. if

my question has appeared epistomological then please pardon me. my

intention is to know the truth. yes vedanta speaks about it. but let

me reiterate the answers i am getting are not satisfactory. i wish

you could spare some of your valuable time to answer my question:" is

my existence dream of another person in antother universe".

btw i can visualize black holes and parallle universes in my

thougts, and i get such kind of dreams too!!

sometimes i get dreams wherein i am flying non-chalantly , landing

down, then flying again. always it is a smooth flight. also i get

dreams of underwater jpourney, ship journeys etc.

OTOH, there is a chapter devoted to dreams in prasna marga voulme ii.

i have read that book which was translated by sri. BV RAMAN and it is

quite interesting.

Dear Partha-ji,

 

I mentioned 'epistemological' only to tell that this

question is a part of another study subject. Why are

you seeking 'pardon'?

No.

The mANDukya Upanishad, Brahmasutras have something to

say about this:

Mandukya mentions different theories of creation, one

of which being that this world is 'svapnamAyA' and

rejects it.

Talking of this world, the BS say, na svapnAdivat.h

(this world is unlike a dream. why?) vaidharmyAchcha;

on the account of it being of different character.

 

Why I said it is a matter of epistemology is this: how

do you know the above fundas is not a matter discussed

in a dream of somebody else?

 

Btw, why do you think dreams are unreal?

Krishna
