A dream has an intrinsic specialty; when it is happening it is
completely real – not even a bit of doubt arises, there is not
a single doubt. Great doubters, who can doubt whether this
world exists or not, still cannot doubt about a dream while it
is happening.

Berkeley, a great Western thinker, says: “I doubt whether
the world exists or not, because there is the possibility that it
may be just a long dream. How can I believe that you are
really sitting here? I may be simply dreaming. How can I be
certain that the people I am seeing are really there? I may
be talking to them in my dream. Any dream is just as real as
you are real sitting here.” So Berkeley asks: “How to trust?
How to be certain that you are...?”
