[Advaita-l] Dream is not real, so is the waking - Say the Veda and Vedavyasa

[H S Chandramouli]

Namaste sudhanshu Ji,

In accordance with Ai Up (1-12) Bhashya,  I understand the three  states
here as one of the three types of  वसति (vasati)  listed  for the jIva.
Nothing to do with vrittis, DSV vs SDV  etc.

For the present I leave it at that.
Regards
