Verse 7.105.20

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
विहृत्य स्वप्नजगति स्वप्नबन्धुजनैः समम् ।
मृतिमाप्नोति तत्रासौ द्रष्टा स्वप्नस्य राघव ॥ २० ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
vihṛtya svapnajagati svapnabandhujanaiḥ samam |
mṛtimāpnoti tatrāsau draṣṭā svapnasya rāghava || 20 ||

Vasishtha replied:—The disappearance of the dreamed objects upon waking, does not prove their falsity, nor make any difference between the two states of dreaming and waking; because the objects which one sees in his dream, are like those that a traveller sees in foreign country, which are lost upon his return to his own country, and the sights of this are soon lost upon his death. Hence both are true for the time being, and both proved equally false and fleeting at last.
