Guruji you have clearly explained what is Tureeya. It is not the fourth state of mind but it is the only consciousness (Atma) that underlies and experiences the 3 states of mind- wakefulness, dreaming and deep sleep but remains unaffected by these 3 states. Thank you Guruji.

As your students, we know that consciousness is the underlying reality in all states . Thank you for your teachings. You are a blessing to me and thousands of others. 🙏

Thank you Swami! Discovering you and leading us to read the Upanishads changed my life!

What an exquisitely clear and concise explanation of Turiya… You are truly a gifted speaker and teacher. Thank you 🙏

Swami love

This is a wonderful teaching. I feel like I at least *began* to grasp this concept, Turiya. Thank you so much, Swamiji. You radiate such kindness and intelligence.

Thank you so much for your clear, concise teachings Swamiji! I was studying Buddhism for awhile, but after listening to your teachings and studying some of the texts I realize that it's Advaita Vedanta that really resonates with me and speaks to my heart and soul. Namaste! 🙏

May the fourth be with you! ❤

19:08 Holding that crystal there, is where I'd seen a 15" white dwarf star leave my father's chest and three years later when my newborn grandnephew was thrust into my arms, I'd felt the same energy signature I had felt upon his soul's departure. I was the only one squeezing his hand in an attempt to let him know we were there next to his side.

A very lucid description of the Ekameva Turiya state which is also described in the Narayana Suktham as the ever shining flame in the Heart Chakra .

Most lucid explanation of turiya. Blessed are the listeners

Our mind is like an infinite field of different possibilities made out of pure consciousness. In order to know the outside world, consciousness must localize and collapse itself into the form of our mind to create and know the world through our senses! Therefore, there is only consciousness!

The way the rishi described it in the Mandukya Upanishad (according to your text description with the video) is exactly how I experience(d) it: my dream state follows the same physical laws as the wake state. They follow the same logic, and are therefore similar or identical And the seventh chakra which is the thousandleafed lotusbloom of pure light as the pinnacle, but there logic stops and you enter a strange world of superlogic and timelessness: A Parmenidian oblate spheroid of pure one consciousness where all knowledge is united and one. It was very strange but awesome at the same time, couldn't stop being amazed at this minds capacity, but didn't dare enter too far into it; it was beyond my comprehension so I was a little scared to enter. I dipped my toe in it to see how it worked and then left

Pranaam Swamiji, thank you for this beautiful video. I remembered Ganapati Atharvashirsha - it says 'tvaṃ avasthātra̍yātī̠taḥ' (त्वं अवस्थात्रयातित:).🙏

Thank you guruji! This is the most profound explanation of Turiya! 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you Swamiji for a wonderful video with excellent explanation of turiya. I completely agree with your pointers that turiya is not a state of consciousness but it is underlying reality. Substratum and our true nature. I also trust Sri Ramana Maharshi that it is a place beyond turiya, which is The Source, Complete Unknown and not describable in any sense. Turiya would be Ishwara/Saguna Brahman and The Source would be Niguna Brahman. Turiya appears with the first thought I am, beyond that in The Source I am is completely dissolved. Instead the closest to that "state" is : IT IS.... That is my understanding so far. Love and blessings to you! Om Shanti! 🕉🙏

Grateful to you for the profound enlightenment. The metaphor of the mind room can fit well the entire three states of the mind and turiya. To sum this up Consciousness is the awareness of the external world created by the mind in the waking state. Consciousness is the awareness of the internal world created by the mind in dream state. Consciousness is the awareness of the absence of activity within the mind in dreamless sleep. Turiya is pure consciousness, detached from the mind, it’s consciousness reflected upon itself.

Garib, Turiyaa Par Puriyaa Mahal, Paar Brahm Ka Desh । Aisaa Satguru Sayeiye, Shabad Vigyaana Nesh ।।

Very helpful, thank you🙏

Awareness according to awareness is duality is all about. It takes awareness to take itself not itself but something other than itself. Ultimately it is awareness vs awareness as far as the whole mess is about.

Thank you! Namaste 🙏😊🌈

a gift as always swami tadatmananda! thank you for the explanations and examples as well as great editing. Also the final note on becoming a blessing to others is what you hold true

Best description of Turiya. Thank you very much Swami ji. We are very blessed to have you among us.

Thank you Swamiji 🙏

Namaste Swamiji You have explained the Turiya so well . Not the fourth state but pure consciousness itself. I see all your videos again and again . I am definitely not enlightened but your videos are at least making me aware of who I am. I pray to the Almighty that as he has guided me towards you he guides me further and makes my ignorance go away specially with your guidance. Thank you Swamiji

Much love ❤️

Thank you again for such enlightening talk. It clarifies lot of things and help us stay on course in our search for our divinity

Swamiji, Thank you for such a simple yet profound explanation of Turiya. We are blessed indeed!

Truely a wonderful upanyas. Class apart.🙏🙏🙏

good knowledge

Thank you so much for this precious teaching. 🙏❤🙏

Dear Swamiji, thanks again for such a clear and uplifting explanation🙏🏻

Profound ! Adhering to the Rishis' wisdom , Swamy clearly shows all the sides of the one and only one consciousness 🙏

Very clear! I appreciate the quotes in Sankrit and Translation a lot, too. Thank you /\

I am psy chiatrist& yoga student appreciate your teaching ❤❤

Very interesting talk,I have been practicing TM since 1978 and find it very powerful ,but simple to do,I experience a deep awareness that is very enjoyable,no thoughts, at least I am not aware of any, not even an I , because that is a thought of course, the process involves an actual physical experience too,the whole nervous system especially in the arms and legs starts to tingle to the point of heat but it doesn't hurt, in fact its very pleasant I presume this is what MAHARISHI says is deep stress release.. trapped negative energy,although one is supposed to practice for about 20 mins, I have experienced wanting to go on for longer as its so enjoyable, a peaceful blissful state so I do sometimes,normally when the 20 mins is up,a thought comes in to stop the meditation ,that i find that extraordinary as when practicing TM correctly there is no sense of time.,when the thought comes to stop and I look at the clock I simply cant believe that 20 mins has gone by, its more seems like a couple of mins if that. As for the other levels of Consciousness I feel God can do anything and these levels may be possible....but how would one describe them if the I is no more? in fact that applies to the Turiya level too.but we try. Maharishi says that regular practice of TM in which one experiences the "4th level Turiya " that being our true nature will permeate our other levels of consciousness, over time someone in this state in waking consciousness would be an extraordinary Human Being.....Self Realised....the idea of a person or name and form as ones identity would be no more,there never was a person..funny in fact. I have no connection and never have with the TM movement as I don't really like the financial side of it. But Maharishi says if one pays for something he is more likely to want something back and carry on,TM like any practice ,it needs the discipline to do regularly ,but as I said Tm is so enjoyable one looks forward to it,afterwards one feels like its been a mental and physical bath and very refreshing. FOOTNOTE. As I said I have no connection with the TM movement,I just wanted to practice the Meditation as it promised the 4th state Turiya, something I had experienced spontaneously aged about 8 called Satori in Zen ,I had no idea (literally )what was happening ,all I can say it was glorious happiness, WIDE AWAKE , NOWNESS SO MUCH LIGHT, not my usual fearful state at all ,It lasted around 4 hours,that was 70 years ago and I have never forgotten it, the I that was me vanished..... One more thing about Maharishi which may point to his stature. I learnt Tm in 1978 and had no connection with the TM movement gradually I forgot about Maharishi in 2008 5th February whilst at the computer first thing surfing on YT Maharishi came into my mind, I wondered if he was still alive? so I searched on YT ,THE FIRST POST I looked at said that HE HAD LEFT HIS BODY THAT VERY MORNING. ! no coincidence,somehow there was a connection........COSMIC CONSCIOUSNESS or some other level....Amazing.

Thank you🌱💫

Very precise,concise and clear explanation 🙏

Beautifully explained Swamiji. ❤

Salutations, Guruji. So beautifully presented and inspirational! You are to be commended once again for explaining a difficult subject so much easier to understand and assimilate. Thanks so much. Om Shanti 🙏🏼

Extremely wonderful

Hariom swamiji, I could feel swami dayananda"s lightning splash in every words. Hail guru parampara. Thank you so much.

Thanks very much, dear Swamiji, for this very clear, traceable and helpful teaching!

Supreme explanation of the inner search, in utmost clarity. The eastern spirituality is already perfected.

Excelent material on a much misunderstood topic.

Swamiji, namaskarams. We are all very much thankful to you sir. The best teacher of spiritual studies sri Tadatmananda namaste.

Aha Swami! You helped remove the ignorance. Thank you!

great teacher...great explaination thank you very much Swami

Very clear, concise, and humble teaching. Impressive!

Pranam Guruji 🙏

Thank you swami.

Eye opening for me Swami ji. I waited for such video for very long time from a Guru like u whose words may be authentic to eradicate my all confusions which finally happened today. My salutations to u Swami ji and charan sparsh.

Pronam Gurudeb. Your video is so helpful to discover reality.

thank you swamiji

Thank you 🙏🏼

Namaste Swamiji, Thank you for another wonderful teaching. I admire your compromise to convey the knowledge of ancient rishis as it has been transmitted to you by your guru. It is always easier to adapt these teachings to the demands of spiritual (western) seekers, but you never do this. And you also give me an example to follow in the way you make it, so respectful. I was looking for a way to saying this in my language, and I see that it is the same in English “separate the wheat from the chaff”. Pranams 🙏🙏🙏

Good analysis and negation of Maharshi Mahesh Yogi's 7 states of consciousness.

With the blessings of Pujya Swamiji, the great teacher of teachers, you are doing a good job... specially your efforts to visualise for others, the abstract ideas of the Upanishads. Much appreciated.

Par excellence explanation of turiya! A lot of misunderstanding removed ! Thanks for your untiring effort to enlighten the true spiritual seekers, and bring to us these teachings in such simple and understanding language. It feels like we are sitting in the ashram of an ancient saint, Brahm Rishi Vashistha! Anant koti naman Gurudev! Anant koti dhanyvad! 🙏🪔🔔🕉🛕🦢🪷🦢🪷🦢🪷🦢🪷🦢🛕🕉🔔🪔🙏👍💐🌞🌺👍🌹🌞💐

Perfect explanation for that which cannot be described

Very helpful lecture. Thank you.

Thank you Swamiji Such a clear explanation

this is clear ...thanks for making me understand .

Turiya the state of the Higher Self - The Real Thinker - the Soul Crystal unaffected by karmic perceptions and beliefs - The unity observing the limited

Excellent sharing the knowledge
