Dear Amrut.,

First, for me Krshna never disappear rather He is the source and in fact for me Krshna and His form, personality never disappear but indulge in very deep exchange that is very personal and intimate. ( If you cannot understand, i cannot help it as it is very individual. Its like saying, taste of sugar is sweet and you asking what is "Sweet")
Mind is not the "Experiencer" ever - because it is not capable - since you said its ok to say in simple term so choosing the simple terms ( though many will not even recognize as it is preached "Mind" is the experiencer - Jada cannot have any experience and that only belongs to the sentient entities thus the experience in all states is only the Jiva - then we require another entity to give 'such' experience of vaishvanara, taijasa and Pragna and that other vastu is the Brahman! and BrahmanuBhava experience is full only in the state of Turiya!
The "We" that you use to talk, write is nothing but the "Jiva" lakshna but only in one school, the We is identified as BM complex and transcending this We is an End itself rather than Beginning! But in my faith and understanding and also experience, the "I" is only wrongly recognized as the BM complex and once it is realized, the Self is realized as JivaSvaRupa and it is the actual beginning of the 'expansion' or GnanaVrtti stage ( BhavaVrtti as well) and not an END or jivan Mukthi!
Hare Krshna!
