Bhagavad Gita: 4: 22: ~ ".....Who has gone beyond the conflicting dualities like the good (happiness) and bad (sorrow)....."

Bhagavad Gita: 4: 42:~ ".....Cut all such conflicting dualities (doubts) by the sword of knowledge. ....."

People think happiness and sorrow are experienced within the waking experience as a reality because they take the individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world as a reality.

From the ultimate standpoint, the individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world is an illusion.

The individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world experienced within the dream was a reality within the dream.

The dream became unreal when waking takes place. Similarly, the waking becomes unreal when Advaitic wisdom dawns.

Advaitic The Wisdom dawns, when the waking entity (you) becomes aware of the fact that, the ‘Self’ is neither the waking entity nor the ‘Self’ is a dream entity, but the ‘Self’ is the Soul, which witnesses the coming and going of the three states.

The three states will appear false to the Gnani because he is fully aware of the fact that all the three states are an illusion created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Remember:~

The experience of happiness and sorrow, riches, and poverty within the dream is a reality within the dream world. The dream becomes unreal when waking takes place. Similarly, waking the experience of happiness and sorrow, riches and poverty also become unreal when you realize the ‘Self’ is not you but the ‘Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. 

Until you think you are an individual separate from this world you will remain in the realm of dualistic illusion. The dualistic illusion is the product of ignorance. When the Advaitic wisdom dawns, then the ignorance vanishes. When the ignorance vanishes, then the duality never remains a reality.

From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self, the world, in which we all exist is merely an illusion from the standpoint of the Soul, the  Self. 

Rest in consciousness by realizing the world in which you exist is nothing but consciousness. The Soul is the fullness of consciousness without division of form, time, and space. 

Thus, consciousness alone is real and eternal all else is merely an illusion created out of consciousness. : ~Santthosh Kumaar
