It is the waking personality that creates the dream personality. The dream creatures spring up from the bed of Samskaras or impressions in the subconscious mind. The mind creates the dream out of the materials supplied by the experiences of the waking state. But they do not know what supplies the material out of which they are made and what turns the desires into actual expression, enabling the dreamer see his own suppressed desires materialised and appearing to him as real. They say that desires stimulate or help the dream creation. Can they create dreams as they like by suppressing desires? No, they cannot do that. They maintain that the cause of dream creation lies in the suppressed desires of the dreamer. The analysis of dreams and their cause by psychoanalysts are defective. Thus the sage leads us to the Supreme Reality that alone exists. He has viewed dreams from several angles and thrown such a flood of light on it as to expose not only its unreality, but also the unreality of the waking state. Not confining himself to the exposition of philosophy and Yoga, he has enriched our literature in other fields, too, e.g., medicine, health and hygiene and even “How to Become Rich.”Īnd now we have from his divine pen his inspiring and enlightened thoughts on one of the most interesting phenomena viz., dreams. The sage, therefore, has directed the beam of his divine light on all problems that face man. His “Divine Life” is ideal life, ideal and divine only because it is possible to live it here and now. Though Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj is an Advaita Vedantin of Sri Sankara’s School, he is unique in that in his life and teachings he synthesises the highest idealism and dynamic practical life.
