PraNAms

 

The so-called fourth state is itself defined as

" so-called " since one cannot call it as any thing.

.... chaturtam manyante - says mantra 7 - people call

it as fourth state since it is not really a separate

state, since it exists in all the three states, yet

different from all the three states - 'na antaH

prajnaH, na bahiH prajnaH, na ubhayataH prajnaH, na

prajnaana ghanam, na prajnaH, na aprajnaH, adRishTam,

avyavahaaryam, agraaHyam, achintyam, avyapadeshyam,

ekaatma pratyahachaaram, prapancopashamam, shaatam,

shivam, advaitam, chaturtam manyante - sa aatmaa - sa

vijneyaH'

 

Hence the so-called fourth state itself is defined as

indescribable - avyapadesyam - not an object of

perception, adRishTam, achintaym, not an object of

thought, advaitam non-dual, shivam, most

auspeciousness, prapanchopashamam - the locus into

which all worlds of plurality dissolve, etc.

 

Mantra implies there is nothing beyond - hence there

cannnot be anything beyond the fourth state -

according to scriptural pramaaNa.
