4 states of conciousness

 Mandukya Upanishad

Consciousness and its phases by  Michael Nagler 

There are 4 states of consciousness:

Waking state, dreaming sleep, dreamless sleep, and finally an indescribable state, Turiya

In Turiya, the sense of  'I' is temporarily suspended. 

Surprisingly, the Upanishad tells us that wet enyart this state regularly

If only were could be aware of it!

Every night we're are like someone ,Unknowingly walking back and forth over a buried treasure...chandogya Upanishad VIII 3.2

so near and yet so far!

My note:

Suspend your ego even if temporarily!

Dont think of overcoming ego

Try to suspend it even if temporarily!!!
