Guest guest Posted June 19, 2000 Report Share Posted June 19, 2000 Long back i read one of the articles on "States of Soul". Article said that there are four states of soul. First one is the "Waking State" the state in which we carry out our day to day activities. 2nd one is the "Dream State" the state in which the concous link of the body with the outer world in not there. ( I was thinking it is being saud that both these states are unreal beacause in either the existence of other is not there. But there is something common in both these states. The "Iness" is present in both the states. Someone who experiences is real. ) Extension of sleep is the "Deep Sleep" ( Sushupti), Dreamless state of sleep. In it to the one who experiences is there. Then comes the 3rd state. Death. Artile said it is also like a sleep. When our body dies our "Atmaa along with mind goes in to sleep" and we awake from this sleep when we take re-birth. ( I was thinking just as we hardly remember our dreams in the same manner we don't remember our this 3rd state of sleep which occurs after death and on waking up (re-birth) we don't remember what we experienced during this state ). But some do remember the dreams of this sleep ( All depends on an individual) . Fourth State is the "Turiyaa State". The state of bliss. Shree Ram Krishna Paramhansa was an expert in "Bhava Samaadhi". Shree Ram Krishna Paramhansa has been in "Turiyaa State" innumerable no. of times. Article said even after this state one more state exists called "Turiyaa Atit State" ( Post-Turiyaa State ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
