You seem to be confusing the fourth pranayama with turiya. The  fourth   pranayama is not taught in TM. True, but perhaps it can be interpreted that the "fourth pranayama"  converges to what TMers call "transcendental consciousness" since the  description of "Breath suspension" during TM's "pure consciousness"  state seems to be identical to descriptions of the fourth pranayama. That experience is a helpful prerequisite for learning the fourth pranayama.
