by Kenneth Jaques | 31,733 words
The Mandukya Upanishad is a short, just twelve verses, description of the material manifestation and the eventual return to unmanifest form of the Universe....
Verse 41
41. As in the waking state, one through misinterpretation may come upon or, touch unthinkable objects as though real, similarly in dream, one perceives through misinterpretation, objects there itself.
This verse states that it is due to misinterpretation or lack of discrimination that objects are taken to be real. This is true for both the dream state as well as the waking state.
