2. And because some Sakhins read of Him as the maker (of all things in dreams), and (some others read that) sons, etc., (are created by Him).

“He (the Lord) who is awake in these (beings), while they are asleep shaping the desired things according to His will” (Kath. V. 8). And the Gaupavana Shruti says, “From this Lord indeed, the son is born, from this the brother, from this the wife, when He subjects the soul to the state of dream.”

With what means (and material does He create)?

3. It is produced only from His will and with the impressions (samskara stored in the mind of the soul); for the things of this creation are destitute of tangible forms occupying space.

The Lord solely at His pleasure makes the soul see (again) the impressions stored in the mind that has no beginning; He does not create with any other means or out of any other material. For the things of this creation have no perceptible dimensions (characteristic of the things presented in the waking state). This is said in the Brahmandapurana: “The Supreme Lord shows, at His will, to the individual soul only the impressions imbedded in the mind; and this state is called ‘Dreaming’.”

“To think of them as the things of the waking state is the wrong notion (the illusion); and this error of identifying dream creation with the things of the waking state is proved by the very difference of its character, (and it is instituted by the Lord Himself). As the things of this creation have no forms of perceptible dimensions, they cannot be things made out of any other material”.

4. (The Dream creation it not unreal); for it is indicatory (of coming good or evil), as indeed appears from Shruti and at those that know the truth affirm (its reality).

Notwithstanding the absence of any other material and means, the Lord shows the things of dream as indicative of good or evil. The Shruti says, “When a man, engaged in works (vows) undertaken for accomplishing particular wishes sees in his dreams a woman, he may infer success in that undertaking, when such a dream indication is seen,” (Ch. V. 2. 9), and so on. “By the word ‘indeed’ is indicated that there is the actual experience and observation of the dream visions proving to be true (signs).” Further Vyasa and other sages who know the truth of dreams also say, “Whatever a Brahmin or a God, a bull or a king may tell a person in dreams, will doubtless prove true.”
