| 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.
Judging from how he entered the dream of Abu Aswan in Graphic Novel:History of a Secret, geographic location is not a barrier where this ability is concerned as Sanjog is in India and Abu Aswan is in Egypt. The graphic novel also shows the dream manipulation can 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.
Examples
- Mohinder dreams about conversations with his father and between his father and mother. He also dreams of his father's murder. Sanjog appears in both. (Seven Minutes to Midnight)
- 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)

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.
