it is true, if you believe it to be true. It is false if you believe it to be false. Because this objective world, which people call as 'truth', is itself a dream, and just like a dream, it reflects your thoughts and manifests your beliefs. This is Advaita philosophy. We have to seek Know that the reality, i.e. the Dreamer is That. – Sai Jul 28 '15 at 14:05

The Mandukya Upanishad speaks of 4 states of consciousness, the waking, dream, dreamless, and the Turiya (which is the Supreme Reality, Pure Consciousness). The second state, the dream state, is called Taijasa (Mandukya IV). The objects seen in the dream state are impressions from the waking state. They are nothing but the internal workings of the mind. They are nothing more than internal mental states. The Brihadaranyaka Upanishad (IV. iii. 9) says:
Then [when he falls asleep] after having taken away with him [a portion of the] impressions from the world during the waking state, [destroying and building up again] he experiences dreams by his own light.
Gaudapada goes into greater detail in Chapter II of his Karkika (commentary on the Mandukya U. as to why dreams are unreal and unassociated with events in the waking state (Also Brihadaranyaka Upanishad IV. iii. 10).
The only time that a dream may be real is when the Lord himself comes to you in a dream, sometimes in the form of your guru or a very holy saint, to give you spiritual instruction.
