Manduka Upanishad:~"Sleep does not exist in Turiya”: This emphatically disproves the mystic use of sleep as an analogy for Brahman. Page 69.

Manduka Upanishad:~ This means that objects do not disappear; they are there, and yet they are non-dual. Disillusionment is not the same as appearance. Page 74. v. 17

Remember:~

Look into the nature of the universe. And you will be able to see that the universe by its very nature is illusory. The moment you understand that the universe is illusory, ignorance disappears and Self-awareness arises.

Self-awareness is the state of non-dual reality. That is the state of Advaita.

People never realize non-dualistic awareness through religion and yoga.

Advaitic-awareness arises only by mentally transcending the dualistic illusion into non-dualistic reality. 

Advaitic -Awareness has to be attained in the midst of waking life; the aspirant should carefully and minutely analyze the nature of the mind, which is present in the form of the universe.

The universe appears as waking or dream (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (nonduality), and grasps the impermanent nature of all three states.

If the three states are impermanent, what, then, is Eternal and, therefore, worth aspiring for? This question cannot be answered by the seeker's intellect, for the intellect itself is a finite and frail instrument and one amongst the impermanent objects in this vanishing waking experience.

When the seeker gradually starts doubting and starts to investigate mentally, he realizes the existence of the witness of the coming and going of the three states. The invisible Soul, the Self, is the witness of the coming and going of the three states.

The invisible Soul is present in the form of consciousness. From the standpoint of the invisible Soul, the Self, the three states are non-existent as a reality.

When the unreal nature of the three states is exposed when the seeker realizes that the three states are created out of a single stuff. That single stuff is consciousness.

When the seeker realizes the three states are created out of a single stuff, that itself is the signal that ignorance is the cause of experiencing the birth, life, death, and the world as a reality.

Thus, the seeker's conviction about the reality of the world in which he exists gets loosened. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
