buddher jagaranam svapnah

 susuptir iti cocyate

maya-matram idam rajan

 nanatvam pratyag-atmani

 

Translation: 

 

The three states of intelligence are called waking consciousness, sleep and deep sleep. But, my dear King, the variegated experiences created for the pure living entity by these different states are nothing more than illusion.

 

Purport: 

 

Pure Krsna consciousness exists beyond the various stages of material awareness. Just as darkness vanishes in the presence of light, so illusory material intelligence, which is experienced as normal perception, dreaming and deep sleep, completely vanishes in the brilliant presence of pure Krsna consciousness, the constitutional condition of every living entity.
