Light





Chakra Six : Located in the center of for head, is associated with clairvoyance, intuition and imagination.Its element is light.





Chakras are point 
Sixth chakra that supports inner luminescence associated with a Kundalini awakening.

Chakra : A center for reception, assimilation and expression of life force energy.

There is a chemical reaction involving sexuality, which may affect the raising of Kundalini and the opening up of psychic faculties. The Pineal gland, often associated with the sixth chakra (clairvoyance), is rich in a derivatives of Serotonin called Melatonin. The chemical may easily transform into a compound called 10 methoxyharmalan which is potentially hallucinogenic giving inner visions. The Pineal glands contains photo-receptors, and as we discuss the sixth chakra , we will see that  light and visionary experiences play a  large part in this level of consciousness.

Food For the Chkras

Chakras Six and Seven- Fasting
It is more

difficult to recommend food  for these higher  chakras as they are not linked  with bodily processes but with the mental states.Certain mind alerting substance like marijuana pr psychedelic drugs are known to affect these centers, sometimes beneficially and sometimes not. In relation to fod , fasting is most relevant  to the upper chakras.

OPENING MEDITATION

It is dark, eyes closed, we lie as if asleep, dreamless, ignorant of all around us. Floating in a sea of emptiness. We are cradled in darkness unseeing unknowing at peace. We breath slowly in and out, stretching and relaxing our bodies as we settle into the warm, peaceful  darkness inside. We are home, we are safe. We are deep within ourselves, feeling hearing, being - but not yet seeing.

Become this darkness- all knowing yet unknowing, empty and free. Let the dark wash over you.sooth you as you empty your mind into the  infinity of the void.- the womb of darkness- the birthplace of our dreams to come.

Somewhere in the darkness, we hear a sound- a distant note a voice a scuffle of movement. We feel the flutter of breeze upon our face., feel the warm upon our shoulders, feel the pull of rise and fall and follow but we know not where. Our bodies cannot see and dare not move. They are dark and still.

They call to us for direction, wisdom and guidance. They call to intelligence, they call to memory.. They call for clarification of pattern. They call to light.

And afraid to leave the darkness and safety of our ignorance, we here this call.

We here this call and our own mind , hungry for answers., quest outwards. We long to see, to know, to behold at once the wonders that surrounds us. To fill our minds with recognition , the certain steps of knowing the safety and the peace that light too, can bring.

We open our mind. We open our eyes. We look about.

Images pour forth in myriad kaleidoscope forms,tumbling inwards, pattern upon pattern, endlessly interweaving.

Color shapes and forms, reflecting space around us, reflecting back into us , recording life into patterns that our minds can clearly see.

The mind opens and receives.

But there is too much and the light is binding.

We call to the dark to shade us, to temper to bind the patterns into meaning. And the dark comes softly hand in hand and shadow to the light, defining, shading, intertwining, ordering. 

The light comes more gently now, rainbow colors, healing, soothing illuminating,, coming at will. Active yellow , healing green, soothing blue and potent violet. All that is alive glows with light. shape and essence in form reveals for us to see and know.

What do we wish to see? What do we call forth to our  inner vision? What does the light bring?

Beauty of  a thousand suns, beauty of a single moon
Pattern of the life we are leading, all the truth we are perceiving
Gently now on a wing of light our petals, flutter through the night
Reaching out the world beyond, events forth coming, days long gone
Holographic matrix net escapes the boundaries by time set.
All the truth can be contained by patterns in the mind retained.
Red and yellow , green and blue, interlace in varied hue.
Shape and form, insight revealed, nothing can remain concealed.
From inner vision reaching out, seeing truth, removing doubt.
Inside we open, watch and wait, while wisdom's vision spins our fate
Illumination shows the way, inner light turns night to day and 
through the dark shall we return, we fear it not for  we have learned
the way the dark and light combine, letting patterns be defined
Dark to light and night to day.
Within our minds we light the way.



THE WINGED PERCEIVER
                                            
  "Imagination is more important than knowledge."

From the dawning of ages, darkness and light have intertwined to bring us one of the greatest gift s of consciousness- the ability to see. To witness the wonders of universe, whether light years away in the twinkling dome of stars or blossoming in the flowers of our backyard. The gift of sight allows us to behold the beauty of creation. Seeing gives us the ability to  instantaneously take in amorphous amount of information about our surroundings. Shape and form distilled into  light wave create an internal map of world around us. From our dreams, image springs from the unconscious, and connects us to the soul.  With intuition we see our way through situations, gleaning wisdom to guide us.in different moments.

 It is this gift of seeing- both inner and outer, that is the essence of inner and outer world. Through seeing we have both  a means of internalizing the outer world., and a symbolic language of  externalizing the inner world. Through our perception of spatial relationship , we have building blocks for both memory  of the past and imagination of the future.  Thus this chakra transcend time.

The "brow chakra" as it is often called, is located in the center of  the head behind the forehead. - either at eye level or slightly  above.  varying from person to person. It is associated with third eye an etheric organ of psychic  perception floating between our two physical eyes. The third eye can be seen as  the psychic organ of the sixth chakra. Just as our physical eyes are tools of perceptions for the brain.. The chakra itself includes the inner screen and vast storehouse of images. that comprise our visual thinking process.  The third eye sees beyond  the physical world, bringing us added insight, just as reading  between lines  of written material brings us deeper understanding.

The Sanskrit name of this chakra is "Ajna" which originally means "to perceive" and later "to command". This speaks to the two fold nature of this chakra to take in image through perception, but also to form inner images from which we command our reality, commonly known as creative visualization.  To hold an image in our mind increase the possibility that  it will materialize. This image becomes like a stained glass window through which  the light of consciousness shine its way to manifestation. If there is no interference, the form in the manifested plane is just what we visualize just like the projected window of the stained glass window if there is no furniture on the way.  One reason for visualization don't always manifest is because so often we do encounter interference along the descend of manifestation The interference  could be someone else's circumstances, fears from the unconscious or simply lack of clarity in our  visualization.


While our petals have been steadily  increasing in number as we climb up the sushumna. We suddenly have two petals  at the Ajna chakra. There are many possible interpretations of their meaning , the two world of reality. Manifest and unmanifest, the intertwining nadis ida and Pingla, which meet at this point, and the two physical eyes that surrounds the sixth chakra. The petals also resembles wings. and symbolizes the ability of this chakra to transcend time and space, allowing  the inner spirit to fly to distant times and places. It is interesting to note that  if you compare the caduceus (The caduceus  from Greek:  "herald's wand, or staff") is the staff carried by Hermes in Greek mythology and consequently by Hermes in Greco-Egyptian mythology. ... It is said the wand would wake the sleeping and send the awake to sleep.) to the chakra and nadis the two wings occur where the sixth chakra would be.One further interpretation is that  the two petal surrounding a circle resembles the white of the eye itself as it surrounds the iris.





The corresponding element of this chakra is light. Through the sensory interpretation of light  we obtain information about the world around us. How much we are able to see depends upon how open or developed this chakra is, including to some degree the acuity of our normal eye sight.The gamut of visual and psychic ability can run from those, who can see aura who extremely observant of the physical world to those who are gifted in psychic perceptions, chakras details of the astral plane precognition (the seeing of future event) and remote viewing.

Unlike five lower chakras, which are situated in the body , the brow chakra is located in the head., therefore its nature is more mental than the any of the previous Chakras. Our virtual perception most becomes  translated into most other forms, such as language, actions or emotions, before they can be tangible shared. As we become more mental, we leave behind the limitations of time  and space and enter a trans personal dimension.

As each chakra correspond to a gland,chakra six is related to a Pineal gland.A tiny cone shaped gland located in the  geometric center of te head at approximately at the eye level.



The Pineal gland sometimes called the "seat of the soul" act as a light meter for the body., translating variation in light to hormonal messages relayed to the body through the autonomic nervous system. Over hundred body functions have daily rhythms which are influenced to the exposure to light. The Pineal reaches to the height of its development at age seven, and has been thought to influence the  maturation of sex glands.. Embryo logically, the Pineal gland is derived from a  third eye that begins to develop early in the embryo and later degenerates. The Pineal has some tranquilizing effect on nervous system. And the removal of Pineal gland can predispose an animal to seizures.


Melatonin a hormone relevant  to pigment skin has been isolated from the Pineal. It is suggested that the production of melatonin is triggered by  exposure of light to eyes.






Even in small amounts. Melatonin now widely researched as sleeping aid is believe to strengthen our immune system. reduce stress, and retard ageing. Melatonin production decreases as we age. and low melatonin levels are commonly found  in depression and consequently and higher than normal levels  in manic state.
Since the Pineal is a light sensitive organ, it seems clear that the Pineal is related to the chakra six.


LIGHT

                               "If therefore thine eyes  be single, thy whole body shall be filled  with light."

At the fifth chakra level of awareness, we experience vibrations as an underlying manifestations of form. At chakra six we encounter  a higher faster vibration than that of a sound., though of a fundamentally different character. Here we embrace  the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we perceive as visible light.. Ultra violet radiation, radio  waves,  X Ray and micro waves are just a few of many waves forms within this spectrum that are not visible to the eyes. Light is a form  directly perceivable by consciousness While sound is expressed through a  wave like oscillation of air molecule. Light is a far finer vibrational energy produced by radioactive emission from atomic and molecular systems as they undergo energy level transmission. In a very real sense, light is the voice of atoms and molecules, where is sound is the voice of larger structure.

Visible light consist of wave packets , called photons which exhibits either wave like  or particles like properties, depending on the method of observations. Because light is wave like. Some of the principles we discuss with sound waves apply equally to light, such as wave form that can be coherent. Variations in frequency gives us  the different colours, just as frequency in sound give  us different pitches. Since light is also particle like , we can think of it as discrete packets or photons, each containing information's that allows us to see.

Light travels the fastest of any element. Extreme wind, which may reach over 200 miles per hour and even sound, at 720 miles per hour, are left far behind by light at  186,000 miles per sound- the fastest known speed of any material phenomenon. Again we step out of physical limitations of time and space with each dimension, and extreme speed of light distorts and transcends our very sense of time. Indeed if one were to  travel at a speed of light, time would cease to pass. This too becomes important at the sixth level, for as vishuddha transcended distance the Ajna chakra transcends time.. In this way,we may see a star in the sky, thousands of light years away which may even have gone nova and dissapeared- but the light of that phenomenon had not yet reached our eyes.

Light is an electro magnetic energy. Though the photons are without mass, light can induce an electric current upon striking metal, a phenomenon known as  photo electric effect. Photons, striking the metal, displace electrons in the metals, which induces a current. The interesting thing about this effect is that the lower frequencies of light- such as red light, for example-do not have enough energy to induce a current, regardless of their intensity. At higher frequencies such as blue or violent, the current is produced which than will vary with the intensity of light.

This implies that  in the nearly non physical  dimension of light. Quantity of light is far more important  than quality.And quality  is dependent upon  frequency, which we experience as color. For this reason any study of light  must include an excursion into color.

COLOR
                         "Color, like feature, follow the changes of emotions."

Color is the form through which we perceive light. Vivid in experience, rich in dept, color is the vary fabric of our seeing. Color is produced by different frequencies in the wavelength of light.  The hotter colors - such as red , orange and yellow are of a lower frequency than the "coolers". Colors of green, blue and violent  and therefore the photons have less energy (hot and cool are our own subjective assessments and say little about the actual energy of light).

Light is produced by the excitation and de-excitation of electrons within the atom. Electron loose or gain energy  by "leaping" from one energy level from another. Each leap is called a quantum jump a discrete step and amount of energy much like a steps in a stairway. When an electron jumps to an higher level, it must observe a certain amount of energy. When it falls back again towards the nucleus that energy is released as a photon of light. An electron falling through two levels release more energy than an electron falling only one level, Therefore photon emit light at a higher frequency.  giving us a blue or violent of the upper chakras.

Colors carries very definite  psychological effects. Red which stimulated the heart and nervous system is also associated with aggressive and initiative energies, anger, blood, beginnings of the things. Blues by contrast are associated with peace and tranquility and have exactly  that effect on  most people. Even wave length beyond the visible spectrum have  an effect on our  health and state of mind. Florescent light , for example which do not contain the invisible ultraviolet rays have been shown to have a negative influence on  health. , both in plants and animals. by contrast full sunlight  containing the complete spectrum have in some instances helped heal arthritis , cancer and other diseases.

If we consider that a large percentage of our information comes to us in  visual form, and that visual information perceived as pattern of colors, the subtle change in frequency exhibited by the light must have an enormous effect upon our minds and bodies.

If sound wave affects the physical arrangement of subtle energy it would follow that , being such a high octave of material manifestation, could influence matter in much the same way.  For this reason colour have been used  in healing. , with remarkable success.  Recent studies have shown  some colors of light can be 500% more effective in stimulating bodily enzymes. This art was known by the healers in early part of century (before such things were scoffed upon by the medical profession). As witnessed by the following quote room a practicing physician versed in an art of color therapy.

For about six years i have given close attention to the action of  color in restoring the  body functions, and i am perfectly honest in saying that , after having 37 years of  active hospital and private practice in medical and surgery. it can produce quicker and more accurate results with color than  with any or all other method combined.- and with less strain on patient. In many cases, the functions have been restored after the classical remedies have been failed. ...Sprains, bruises and trauma of all sorts respond to color as to no other treatment. Septic conditions yield, regardless of specific organism, Cardiac lesions,asthma, hay fever,,Pneumonia, inflammatory conditions of the eye,corneal ulcers, glaucoma and cataract are relieved by the treatment.

Various theory of healing effect the colors have been written and documented in the last century, using methods such as bathing a person in sunlight, through a stained glass of particular color or drinking water that collected sunlight in a colored glass, has had a remarkable healing effect in many cases.  Treatment of blue light for instances, have been known to  provide permanant relief in cases of sciatica and inflammation. In one case of patient had had unrelenting symptoms of eleven years and was relieved within a week of color treatment, with no relapse.

In other cases Yellow light has been used to bring  mental clarity, red to combat physical exhaustion. and Golden orange to help diabetic. If disease begins at the subtle level should they not be treated at the subtle level as level, using such things as color- specially in conjunction with positive visualization.

The color of the chakras follow a logical progression through the spectrum, co-relating a lower frequency of light which is red to the lowest chakras matching rest of the chakras to the spectrum accordingly. This seems to be both the most sensible and the most  universal system of the coordination to the chakras, but it is by no means the only system, and should not be confused with the colors that the chakras appears to be  when viewed clairvoyant.

Chakras frequently carried the colors stated in the metaphysical literature i.e. kundalini
Chakra one : -Red 
Chakra Two -orange
Chakra Three :  yellow,
Chakra Four : Heart green
Chakra Four : Throat blue
Chakra Five : Indigo blur
Chakra Six : Violet
Chakra Seven : Crown White.
Activity in certain chakras seems to trigger increase activity in other. The heart chakra was constantly the most active.
Perhaps as we evolve, our chakra vibrations are changing frequently, and the colors are now becoming more aligned to the pure colours of the spectrum.

When viewing chakras clairvoyant, it is equally unlikely that one would see the  set of chakras exactly reflecting the above rainbow description, for these are optimum colours occurring in chakras that are fully developed and clear.. The clearer colors appear only  towards the end of therapy

One can also use the associated colors as meditational or mnemonic devices to gain access to your chakras or to find out more  about them.

We can choose the colors that compliment the chakras we feel are the weakest. Yellow color for matabolic problem and other issues related to third chakra such as low energy and feeling of powerlessness.. Wearing a yellow gemstone (topaz) and yellow clothing helps the attitude of the patient. It brings balance to the personal energy level.

Color can also be used  in visualization for self healing.

Chakra six




THE HOLOGRAPHIC THEORY

In the heaven of Indra, there is said to be network of pearls so arranged that  if you look at one  you see all others reflected in it . In the same way each object in the world  is not merely itself but  involves every other object, and in fact  is every other object.

How do light and visual process connect to what we experience in perception ? Why do so many mystic claims to see patterns of light when they meditate, eyes closed ? Why do dream images  seem so real ?And what constitute memory ?

The most plausible  theory "Mind as a hologram".A hologram is a three dimensional image formed by two intersecting laser beams.This is analogous to  dropping two pebbles into a pond at different locations, and quickly freezing the water. The intersections of ripples would be permanently recorded into the ice, just as the interference of light  beams are  recorded into the holographic plate.

In the creation of hologram, a beam of light produces  by a laser is reflected from an object, and recorded on a light sensitive plate.. The plate also receive another beam of the same frequency, called the reference beam, which goes directly from the source of plate .. Looking at the plate  itself, we would see only a meaningless pattern of dark and light swirls. This is the coded information of the intersection of the two beams, much as the grooves on a record are the coded representation of a sound track.

 
When the plate is later  "retracted" by a reference bean that contains the same frequency as the original laser the image of the holograph object eerily jumped out at you in three dimensions. You can move to the side of hologram and see the side of an object as if it were really there, yet since it is only light  you can pass your hand right through it.

There are many remarkable things about hologram. The first is that  the information is stored "omnipresently" on the plate. In other words, if the plate were to break, into pieces, any piece of plate  would be capable of reproducing the whole picture. through which increasingly less detail as the piece diminish in size. The second remarkable thing about hologram is that they are "non spatial".(not relating to, occupying, or having the character of space)  Many hologram can be superimposed upon one another in one "space" or on one plate by using laser's of different frequencies. 

The brain itself functions like a hologram through constant interpretations of interference patterns between brain wave. This is fundamentally different from  previous brain models. , where each bit of information is stored  in a particular place. This theory has shaken the foundation of physics and physiology, creating a paradigm shift in the study of consciousness. Its ramifications as far reaching n the understanding of the mind as well as the world around us. This model seems particularly relevant to the  understanding of the Ajna chakra. 

Memory seemed to be  stored omnipresently throughout the brain, much as the plate stores the holographic information. When tissues are removed , memories become fuzzier, but didn't disappear. This explained why memory survived massive brain damage. Why the brain can store entire lifetime of  memory, and why memories were often triggered by  certain association  or "reference beams".

When we view an object, light is transformed into neural frequency pattern in brain.The brain is filled with some thirteen billion neurons. The number of possible connection between these neuron number in the trillions. Where scientist have previously looked at  the neurons themselves as significance to brain activity.. They are now looking at the junction between the neurons.While the actual cells exhibit a kind of  on off reflex action. The junctions at the nerve ending exhibit wave like qualities when viewed as a whole. If you look at the whole series of these  (nerve ending)  together they constitute a  wavefront, One comes this way, another that way, and they interact and all of a sudden you've got your interference pattern.

As impulse travel through the brain, the wave like qualities create  what we experience as perception and memory. These perceptions are stored as encoded wavefront frequencies in the brain and can be activated by an appropriate stimulus, triggered the original waveform. This could explain why a familiar face  brings us recolonization, even though that face may look different from the last time you saw it.  It may explain why mention of roses brings to mind a particular smell and why snakes may generate fear even when there is no particular threat.

Our perception of the world around us seems to be reconstruction of a neural hologram within the brain.This applies to language thought, and all the scenes as well as  to the perception of visual information. . Mind  isn't located in a place what we have is a hologram like machinery that turns out images which we perceive as  existing somewhere  outside the machinery.

Our brain  containing access to all information, even that of other time dimensions. It can explain many things beyond the normal functions of memory and perception such as  remote viewing, clairvoyance, mystic visions,and precognition ( future vision or future sight,)

Universe itself may be a kind of hologram or holoflux, as hologram is static and not fitting for a universe so filled with movement and change. 

The universe is  "enfolded", spread as a whole throughout a kind of cosmic medium much as we around  enfold egg whites into a cake batter.This enfoldment allows for an infinite number if interference, capabilities, giving us the form and energies that we experience with our holographic mind. In this context  then the brain itself is a part of a larger hologram, and would therefore contain information about the whole. Just as we perceive the world in a holographic fashion, so may the world itself  be a larger hologram in which we just  small pieces. But as pieces, we each reflect the whole.

If this is true -if there is a inner and outer world , both of which mirror the entire creation in any of its part - than we as parts, contain the information as a whole, as does everything around us. Not only the grain of sand describe the universe in which it occurs, but each of our minds also contains the encoded information of a greater intelligence, just waiting for a right reference beam to trigger the image. Perhaps this is why gurus can trigger shaktipat, and sympathetic vibration can trigger altered state of consciousness.

If both inner and outer world appear to function holographic ally than the question must be asked, is their any difference between them. Are we ourselves also holograms? As we slowly dissolve our self created ego  boundaries and embrace more universal state of being are we merging our consciousness with a greater hologram?  If each place of a hologram contains information about the whole though less clearly, is that why we gain clarity each time a new piece of information fits into the puzzle. As we grow and expand our understanding do we not see things more  and more as one  interpreting web of energies, one picture ?

At each time these questions have no definitive answer. Few could argue that what is considered  "external"  does influence our perception, thought and memories, becoming internal. Few could argue that  there is a structure inside of us which encompasses energies above and beyond the external world. Doesn't the internal structure in turn influence the external world. Can the construction of our mental hologram be projected outward to take form on the material planes?

Not only do we construct perceptions of the world but we also go out and construct those perception  IN the world. We make tables and bicycles and musical instruments because we can think of them.


It is this principles that best illustrates  the abilities of the Ajna chakra- to perceive and to command- and the psychic reception and projection of imagery with the outside world.

SEEING
All that we see are the visualizations. We see not with the eye,but with the soul.

It has been estimated that in a sighted person ninety percent of our information comes through our eyes- more that through any other organ or sensory means.It follows then  that a large portion of our memory and thought processes are also coded  with visual information. This is of course varies from person to person as some people are more visually oriented  than others. While the visual experience of the world  may often be limited  or misleading, there is no doubt that it is fundamentally important level of consciousness.

Visual information can be defined as a pattern which communicates spatial relationships, reaching us without the necessity of physical contact (as in touch). These relationship describe forms as in size and shape, color, intensity, location, movement and behavior.

The physical eye see by focusing, reflected rays of light into the retina. The focusing is done by the cornea. which takes a larger pattern of light and reduce it,inverted, into the retina. The retina is made up of rods of cones which are stimulated by varying intensities of light.. When light hits these cells, a chemical reaction takes place, triggering nerve impulse. These impulses are then conducted along the optic chasm to the cerebral cortex of the brain. in the form of electrical impulses. No actual light enters  the brain.

It is not really our eyes that sees, but our minds. The eyes are merely focal lenses for transcribing information from the outer world to the  inner.  The brain does not actually receives photons of light , but rather encoded electrical impulses. It is up to the mind / brain to interpret the electrical impulse traveling along the optic nerves into meaningful patterns. This is a learned ability. In persons blind from birth whose sight is later restored by surgery, It is found that their first perceptions are only of light and they must struggle to learn to make meaningful images of this perception.

We also must remember that it is not mater that we perceive, but light. When we look at the light  around us, we think that we see objects. But what we are really seeing is the light reflected  by these objects.- we see what we are not , we see the spaces between them, the spaces around them, but we cannot see into the actual objects. If we see red than the object observes all frequencies except red light. We confirm its presence by touch.- but our hands moves through the empty space. It too cannot feel the object, but only the edge of object.What it feels is the textured boundaries of the empty space. From this  prospective, matter can be seen as a kind of no man's land - a world we cannot enter except  perhaps in very thin slices- penetrable by light under a microscope or through glass and crystals.We experience our world through a dimension of empty space.

CLAIRVOYANCE
In order to see, you have to stop  being in the middle of the picture.

The most significant aspect of  consciousness, at the level of sixth chakra is the development of psychic abilities. While psychic  perception is not always visual as in clairaufience (from chakra five) or clairsentience (chakra two)  the timelessness of clairvoyant information  allows it to  encompass a greater scope than any psychic abilities discussed thus far.

The term clairvoyance means "clear seeing". This is seeing that is nor muddles with  by the opaque world  of material objects normally defining our limited sense.of space and time. The word clear and seeing  quite accurately describe the processes involved.. To be clairvoyant we need to look at the spaces that are clear- to look at the field of energy, not at the object themselves, to look at relationship, for things to see the  world  as a whole. and to teach with our minds directly and clearly  for the information we want.The more clarity we have within ourselves the better we are able to see the subtle properties of the world around us.

To see implies as far deeper perception than to look- as exemplified. Looked at a person, he only perceived a body, facial expressions clothing. When he learnt to see , he percieved a luminous egg surrounding the body -
Aura


The web of inter penetrating energies we call the aura. When he looked at his dying brother, he was deeply grieved, but when he instead changed his mode to see, he understand the greater process involve and could learn, from it.

Looking is the action of seeing, but seeing is the internationalizing of the image into  understanding.. Take for example the common expression "I SEE", it generally means that someone has been able to make a small part of information and fit it into a scheme of the whole.  just as each piece of hologram clarifies the whole picture. each new things we look at becomes immediatly incorporated into our sense of wholeness bringing more clarity to our  internal picture.

How do we do this?  according to the model of hologram our mind/brain acts as a kind of stage upon which our visual images play.  When the proper cue is given (the holographic reference beam)  the image appears on the stage, but where and what  are the actors?

The actors are the slides. stored holographic ally as color, shapes, sound and tactic patterns. There is no carousel in the brain keeping complete and seperate image., but instead portion of the brain may produce qualities such as  red, warm, fast or quiet. These qualities combine in unique ways to create the image we see.

We can think the third eye as a mental screen upon which we cast our slide for viewing.  If you close your eyes and remember your  first car, you may able to see the color, the texture of the upholstery, perhaps a small dent on one side. In the mind's eye you can walk around the car, seeing the front and the back as you choose, just like the three dimensional effect of a hologram. The actual car need not currently exist apart from it. By focusing our attention, the image is retrieved.

In your mind's eye, you can see what you choose to look at., If i ask you the color of your friend's hair you can mentally retrieve that  "slide" and look at it , and tell me what it is.

Can you create an equally vivid picture of a  car you would like to have?   Can you picture the color, the make,, the vanity plate on the back? Can you visualize yourself driving it  going down a country road , the feel of a staring wheel in your hand.

That car may never be yours to own so your visualization is called  imagination., even it may be seen just as real as your memory. if however you won a sweepstakes and the car such as the one you just visualizes  came to you, then your visualization can be considered  precognitive- a form of clairvoyance. The difference lies in the result but the process is the same. Through the development of visualization and imagination we simultaneously develop the means for clairvoyance.

The process of clairvoyance is one of specific visualization. It is the matter of systematically been able to call up relevant information on demand, regardless of it has been previously known. Our minds are using a self made reference beam in the form of a  question to retrieve previously unknown data from the holographic memory bank.  For instance you may ask yourself to look at the area around someone's heart chakra with a specific question that needs answering such as something about the health or relationship.  The question becomes the reference beam that  "lights up"  that particular piece of information in the holographic pattern.

We have stated that  we transcendent time in the sixth chakra. We need not  limit accessible information to what has been learnt in the past- we can also retrieve information from the future.  The only difference is that  we are actively creating the reference beam that will bring forth the image, rather than waiting for some point in future time where circumstances call it forth. As writer says that , I don't decide my stories are going, i just peep into the future and write down what happens.

Few people believe they can see something outside ordinary knowing, something they haven't literally seen or been told. There is no permission to have that information and no current explanation for it. , so most people don't even bother to look for it.  In order to see something one need to know. Where and how to look. We look for things in places where they are likely to be . We need not have put them there ourselves.- we need understand a basic order in which those things occur. The decimal system at the library is a prime example.  So is finding an appropriate item in an unfamiliar grocery store.You survey the store noting its general layout, you know what category the items belong in, you superimpose the two mental images and head to that section to look more closely. Voila! your material cross referencing the clicks in place as the sight of items fits into your procreated mental niche.

Accessing mental information is really no different. If you are tired to remember who told you a particular joke at a party you would review a people at a party, the people you had personal conversations with all the time keeping the jokes in your mind, waiting for right piece of data to fall into place.  When you hit the correct memory the image would "light up" in your mind as if illuminated by a clarity  that the other image did not have. In this process we look through  thousands of bits of data sorting and deciphering until we see the piece that fit in.

Once we know where to look for data , we need not know how to look.  How many times  have you looked for something you know was in a particular place and still been unable to find it. How many times you looked right at something and failed to see it.  How many times you accessed your memory and failed to bring forth the information you know was there? 

Accessing memory is a process of finding the right code (the reference beam)  to bring the holographic image back to life. just as the computer contains data that is accessible only with the right command, so do our mental image require the proper mental image to  unlock them.

The development of clairvoyance depends on the development of visual screen and the creation of ordering system with which to access information for the screen.If we don't label our slides we won't know what it is  we are looking at ? The development of visualization is the ability to  retrieve, create and project images into the mental screen. Once this is done, seeing depends largely on  asking the right questions.

We are not limited to slides we have "holograph ed" ourselves. If the holograph ed model has any validity than we have access to an  infinity of images, each created by infinity of brain wave pattern. We need only call it up  by finding the correct "reference beam".

Many people begin with "Tarot cards", Palmistry or Astrology to use as a structure that can provide the reference beam. The card brings up a variety of images, the person you are reading brings up  another variety of images. What point seems most important? What point seems to light up? Where do the waves of information cross and become strongest?

To look at something clairvoyantly, we not only need a reference point with which to retrieve the data, but also a blank screen to view the information. This comes with practice , patience, and a quite and open mind. Emptying the mind of images through meditation paradoxically allows one to  better see what images there are. Learning to focus the mind. creating a one pointedness, allow one to look deeper, and therefore see more. In clairvoyance there is no substitute for a  clear and quite mind.

Because these nuisance are so subtle, it is common to ignore or invalidate them. just as we cannot here the whispers of  telepathy in a noisy world we can't see the subtle movement of the  etheric realm if  we expect them to be outlined in noon. 


CHAKRA SIX EXERCISES

Yogic Eye Exercises
This is an exercise for strengthening and centering the physical eyes., also good for eye strain , visual improvement, and general fatigue from  doing a lot of paper work or heavy reading.

Begin in a seated  meditation position, spine straight. close your eyes and bath them in the darkness.


 Bring your awareness  to the point between your eyes., in the center of the head.. Feel the darkness their, and let yourself bask in its quiet calm.
                                       


When you fee centered, open your eyes and gaze straight  ahead.. Slowly  look upward, stretching your eyes skyward, without moving your head . Then trace a straight line downward, gazing as low as your vision can reach., still without moving your head.. Repeat upwards, and then downwards, again than return your eyes to the center and close them, returning to the darkness.

Open your eyes again and center them. Then repeat the above movement, going instead  from corner to corner first from upper right to lower first, two times., then from the upper left to lower right also two times, return again to darkness.




Repeat again, moving from right to far left, returning to darkness after two times. the final time after centering your eyes, make half circle. First on the top  then on the bottom,, and finish by rolling your eyes  "around the clock" making a complete rotation, stretching your eyes as far as  they can go, both clockwise and counterclockwise.



Close your eyes, rub your palm together briskly until you feel your hands become warm. When the heat feels sufficient, place your warm palm over your eye lids, and let your eyes bask in the warmth and darkness. As the heat dissipate slowly stroke your eyelids, massaging your forehead and face. From here you can go into  a deeper meditation or return  to the outside world.

Color Meditation
This is a simple visualization for  healing and cleaning the chakras and developing the  ability of the inner eye to create and perceive color.

Begin in a meditation position, preferably seated. Ground and center your energy.

When you are sufficiently grounded, imagine a bright disk of white light, floating directly above your head from which you can draw each color.

Let the first color be red, pulling it down through your crown chakra, down through your crown chakra, down through your whole spinal column and filling up the first chakra with a vibrant red color.. Hold that color  in your first chakra for a few moments. Notice how your body feels with this color. Does it like it ? Does it feel energized or uncomfortable.

Next return to the area above the crown  chakra and pull orange light out of the white disk. Run it down through your body noticing what effect this color has on you.. Bring it to the second chakra. and fill your belly with  a vibrant, orange color.

Return to the crown and find a  golden yellow light to  pull through the body down to the third chakra. Imagine a warm golden glow coming out of your body at the solar plexus, with rays streaming through each part of your body filling and warming it.As the third chakra has to with energy distribution throughout the body, these rays are important for  spreading the  sense of inner fire.

Now we come to the heart and the color green, feel this color wash on you, bringing with it  a sense of love and affinity for the world around you. See it as a warm emerald glow around your heart.

Next we reach into our white disk for the color blue pulling it down in the throat chakra. Allow it to sooth your throat as well as relax your arm and shoulders. Feel the blue rays extend all around your throat, communicating  with all that  is around you.

Next we come to third eye itself usually seen as a deep indigo blue. Feel the coolness of this color as it bathes you third eye. Allow it to wash any foreign images away, cleansing and soothing your inner screen.

And lastly the crown chakra is seen as a bright vibrant violet color. Feel the violet light streaming into your crown chakra. Take a glimpses of your whole body and see if you can "see"  as a continuous rainbow. As you check over your body notice which colors are the strongest  or brightest.. Notice how the different colors felt. Which once were more nourishing or energizing. The color that felt the most  welcome probably represent energies  that you need most  at this time.  The colors that felt the least  welcome represents areas that you typically avoid or  where there may be difficulty.Pale or washed out colors represent weak areas strong colors, places of strength and solidity. Play internally with colors until they feel balanced to you. This helps to balance the aura as well.

Photo Blink
This exercise is a simple to get a sense of someone's aura if you normally don't see auras.  It also helps to improve visual observations.

Place the person you want to look at directly opposite to you, about 6-10 feet away. Close your eyes and clear your mental screen. Wait until you feel grounded and centered, with no particular thought or image running through your mind.

Very quickly close and open your eyes- the opposite of a blink so that you get a quick glimpse of the person in front of you making a sort of frozen "photographic"image  imprinted in your mind. Hold the image and examine it.. What characteristic do you notice ? Do you see an after image or glow around the body. Do certain colors or body positions stand out? As the image fades quickly open and close your eyes again to strengthen it. See how much detail you can decipher in this "afterimage".Which parts fade first and which characteristic linger ? All these things tell you about the strength and weaknesses of that persons aura.

Meditation
The most useful exercise for strengthening the third eye is simple meditation, focusing the attention on the center of the head or the point between the eye brows.Visualization of colors or shape can be added. or you can simply focus on clearing the mind screen until it is clean and blank.

Once the screen is blank, visualization can be willed in answers to questions you may have. If you want to know about someones health for example visualize the picture of their body shape and allow black or white to show areas of health and disease. Be creative in finding a visual metaphor for your question.The limit of this system are only the limits of your imagination, and the more we open this center the more we expand our imagination.

Another way to perceive how we feel about a certain decision is to phrase the question so that it can be answered with a simple yes or no. Than make a visualization to  represent each answer- put yes on one side of your screen., no on the other.Then imagine a gauge with a needle pointing straight up and on the count of three, let the needle point to the answer most appropriate. Don't control the needle - let it go where it will, you may be surprise.

The ability of visualization successfully depends on constant use. like a muscle.Get in the habit of imaging a face before you answer the telephone, retrace all your steps of getting to work in the morning as if you were watching from outside, reconstruct memories of your childhood, bedroom, playmates or first sweetheart. Visualize a task completed before you begin it and find out if it makes the doing easier; visualize your  larger number in your check register, visualize meeting someone new.

Visualizing is active dreaming.The more we do it  the more vivid and  capable  our mind creations.The opportunities for practice are endless. Once it becomes a habit it develops naturally.
Before reaching any destination  we visualize the road map in our mind to be traveled.
