इदं जाग्रदयं स्वप्न इति नास्त्येव भिन्नता ।
सत्ये वस्तुनि निःशेषसमयोर्यानुभूतितः ॥ २४ ॥

idaṃ jāgradayaṃ svapna iti nāstyeva bhinnatā |
satye vastuni niḥśeṣasamayoryānubhūtitaḥ || 24 ||

There is no difference between the two states of dreaming and waking, they are both of the same nature, and the difference lies in the modes of our apprehension of them.
