Question :
Do experiences in the dream state contribute to one's vaasanas and future karma, or are dreams only a means to unload the effects of past karmas?
H.H. Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji:
One gets dreams because of one of the following reasons:
- The Vasanas of the prior births
- The Vasanas of this birth – based on what he sees, hears, reads, experiences etc. in his waking state
- Divine intervention
- Intervention of evil forces
The scriptures ascribe certain effects ('phala') to certain patterns of dreams. The experiences in the dreams don't add to one's Vasanas.
