“The Fourth (Turiya) is without parts and without relationship; It is the cessation of phenomena; It is all good and non-dual. This AUM is verily Atman. He who knows this merges his self in Atman”• The part-less AUM is the silence at the end of the chant of OM, the same as the fourth (Turiya) state.• There are no more names and forms (nama-rupa)• AUM thus chanted with the knowledge of the three letters is the same as the three quarters of the Self.• When the fourth state of AUM is realized to be the same as the Turiya of Atman, then ultimate Self is realized.
'Mandukya Upanishad'
