Forty-fifth dhāraṇā. The hypnagogic state. Anāgatāyāṃ nidrāyām — when sleep has not yet arrived. Pranaṣṭe bāhyagocare — when external world perception has already disappeared. The threshold between waking and sleep.

Sāvasthā manasā gamyā — that state is accessible to mind. Not out of reach. Every night, as you fall asleep, you cross this threshold. But normally you cross unconsciously. The technique is to cross it awake.

Parā devī prakāśate — the supreme Devī manifests. In this limbo between worlds, pure consciousness appears without veils. It has no objects to perceive. No thoughts to process. It is pure presence. Yoga nidrā practitioners know this territory. Bhairava points to it as direct door to the absolute.
