Mr. Cohen asked: Meditation is with mind in the (waking) state. There is mind in dream also. Why is there no meditation in dream? Nor is it possible.
M.: Ask it in the dream.
After a short silence Sri Bhagavan continued: You are told to meditate now and find who you are. Instead of doing it you ask “Why is there no meditation in dream or in sleep?” If you find out for whom there is (waking), it will be clear that dream and sleep are also for the same one. You are the witness of jāgrat (waking), (dream) and (sleep)—rather, they pass before you. Because you are out of meditation now, these questions arise. Stick to meditation and see if these questions arise.
