Turīya: differenze tra le versioni

{{da cancellare}}

Nella filosofia indù col termine '''turiya''' o '''caturtha''' si indica uno stato di coscienza pura o l'esperienza della verità ultima. Questo è un quarto stato della coscienza che, allo stesso tempo, è sottostante e trascende i tre stati comuni di coscienza:

# lo stato del sogno (''svapna''),

 

<!--

The first two states are defective as experiences of reality and truth because of their flawed dualistic natures of subject and object, self and not-self, ego and non-ego. In the third state, dreamless sleep, one is not conscious of external or internal objects. But that does not mean consciousness is not present there. It is like saying 'I don't see anything in darkness'. The recognition that I don't see anything is what I 'see'. So also in dreamless sleep, one is not conscious of anything and the very fact that this statement is true proves the existence of consciousness during deep sleep.

 

 

''"The fourth state is not that which is conscious of the subjective, nor that which is conscious of the objective, nor that which is conscious of both, nor that which is simple consciousness, nor that which is all-sentient mass, nor that which is all darkness. It is unseen, transcendent, the sole essence of the consciousness of self, the completion of the world."''
