  The state of a knot is defined in the realm of Chern-Simons topological
quantum field theory as a holomorphic section on the SU(2) character manifold
of the peripheral torus. We compute the asymptotics of the torus knot states in
terms of the Alexander polynomial, the Reidemeister torsion and the
Chern-Simons invariant. We also prove that the microsupport of the torus knot
state is included in the character manifold of the knot exterior. As a
corollary we deduce the Witten asymptotics conjecture for the Dehn filling of
the torus knots and asymptotic expansions for the colored Jones polynomials.
