Yoga Nidra and Mandukya Upanishad
The pinnacle of the wisdom of the ancient sages is contained in the 12 verses of the Mandukya Upanishad, which outlines the phylosophy and practices of the OM Mantra. It has been said that the juice of the Vedas is in the Upanishads, and the juice of the Upanishads is in the Mandukya Upanishad.
Third level relates to Yoga Nidra: The third of the four levels of consciousness mapped out in the Mandukya Upanishad is called Prajna, which is the level of deep sleep. This is the domain of Yoga Nidra, which is conscious deep sleep.
The Self and the Absolute - Verses 1-2
