| Dream manipulation | |
|---|---|
 Mohinder watches himself in a dream. | |
| Held by: | Sanjog Iyer |
| Ability to: | Manipulate the dreams of others |
| Examples of dream manipulation | |
Dream manipulation is the ability to manipulate the dreams of others.
Characters
- Sanjog Iyer is the only character known to have this ability (see Sanjog's file for more information).
Limits
The operation of Sanjog's power is not well known, although he has stated that those with questions come to him.
Sanjog appears to be able to intrude into the dreams of only people who are already asleep.
There may be a clairvoyant aspect to the images Sanjog creates, since the image he summoned of the murder of Chandra Suresh contains details of events that neither he nor the dreamer — Mohinder Suresh — actually witnessed. He also helped Piper to remember her past which was supposedly erased by the Haitian. (Different and the Same)
Judging from how he entered Abu Aswan's dream (History of a Secret), geographic location does not limit this ability since Sanjog is in India and Abu is in Egypt. Dream manipulation can also display events which occurred long before an individual's lifetime as both Abu and Sanjog are in the present day and Khufu is in the past, over four millenia ago.
When he enters Piper's dream, he hands her her glasses. (Different and the Same) It is interesting to note that before Piper dreams, she was not wearing any glasses, however, when she wakes up from the dream, she was wearing the pair of glasses that Sanjog handed her. Thus, dream manipulation may not be limited to only interactions in dream but interactions in real life too.
Selected Examples
- Mohinder dreams of his father again, and is able to discern his father's motives for distancing himself from Mohinder. (Homecoming)
- In a dream, Sanjog shows Abu Aswan that his ancestors, including Pharaoh Khufu, were able to levitate large objects. (History of a Secret)
- Sanjoy inspires Ryan Covington about his life in a dream. (Pieces of Me)
- In a dream, Sanjog helps Piper to remember her past. (Different and the Same)

Memorable Quotes
"It says the boy can enter your dreams, alter your perceptions, a kind of spirit guide."
- - Mohinder (to Nirand) (Homecoming)
Notes
- Sanjog's file, found in Chandra's desk at his office, contains articles about continued learning during sleep. (Seven Minutes to Midnight)
- Maury Parkman has shown that he has the ability to induce dreams and nightmares. His power should not be confused with Sanjog's power to manipulate the dreams of others.
