The Holy Science --Sutra -15-16 Sleeping and Waking states. When man compares his ideas relating to gross matters conceived in the wakeful state with his conception of ideas in dream, the similarity existing between them naturally leads him to conclude that this external world also is not what it appears to be. When he looks for further explanation, he finds that all his wakeful conceptions are substantially nothing but mere ideas caused by the union of five objects of sense ( the negative attributes of the five internal electricities) with the five organs of sense ( their positive attributes) through the medium of five organs of action ( neutralizing attributes of the electricities). This union is effected by the operation of Mind ( Manas) and conceived or grasped by the Intelligence ( Budhi). Thus it is clear that all conceptions which man forms in his wakeful state are mere inferential Parokshajanana--a matter of inference only.---Swami Sriyukteswar Giri.
