The fourth state, transcending waking, dream, and deep sleep, veiled by them.
By just those three — Viśva, Taijasa, and Prājña, called the first, the middle, and the last, [namely] waking, dream, and deep sleep, which are [all] of the nature of error — the {{turīya|the fourth, transcending the three states}} is veiled.
