"Rahangri then put his question: 'What is the difference between a dream and reality? And in dream I include all forms of waking vision.' The poet was surprised, but the inquiry was much to his taste. He replied: 'There is no ultimate difference, for they intermingle, reflect each other; are dependent on each other, cannot exhist singly, derive from the same source; each is both illusory and real, and neither is real without the other.'"
