I am attaching few verses of kathoupanishad ( the Upanishad where nachiket inquired to yam- acharya/yamraj about the mystery of death) 

From Wikipedia- 
Turiya, literally meaning "the fourth," is the state of pure, transcendent consciousness in Hindu philosophy. It lies beyond the three ordinary states of human experience: waking (Jagrat), dreaming (Svapna), and deep sleep (Sushupti). Key characteristics of Turiya include:
Non-duality (Advaita): It transcends the subject-object divide. In Turiya, the individual soul (Atman) realizes its absolute identity with the ultimate cosmic reality (Brahman).
Beyond Attributes: It is invisible, indescribable, and incomprehensible by the ordinary senses and intellect.
The Goal of Yoga: It is the state of ultimate bliss (Ananda) and liberation (Moksha), free from all ignorance and suffering..
