Third Eye Third Eye is a very powerful tool of the Self to ’see’, to ‘hear’ and to ‘feel’ other frequency realities. These three functions of the Soul are known as Third Eye. When we reach Meditative state in Meditation, Cosmic Energy flows heavily. Then Third Eye gets activated. By more and more Meditation, more cosmic Energy flows. Then Third Eye gets perfected.Then we ’see’ so many things-known and unknown more crystal clear than ordinary visions. With Third Eye experience, Our actions will change. Our beliefs will change. Our understandings will change. After the Third Eye experience, we find changes in our perception of this physical plane. Meditationguru www.meditationguru.com
Meditation, Hindu meditation at least, is not to see anything new, it is to discover the seer, the true I. the one who sees through all eyes.
Ajna cakra is often referred to by most people as the 'third eye' which isn't entirely inaccurate, but its scriptural name is Ajna Cakra. This is the name it is known by in the ancient Yoga Tantra tradition. The very tradition from where we get the practice known to most as meditation as well, called Dhyana. And dhyana is not the end in itself like some make it out to be. Dhyana is part of a sequential process, as stated in the Yoga Sutras, Hatha Yoga Pradipika, and many other scriptures, as well as on this forum. It is preceded by pratyahara, withdrawl of the senses, then dharana, which is a concentrated one-pointedness. This one-pointedness eventually turns into dhyana, meditation, which is a concentrated flow of prana into the bindu of the ajna cakra. Dhyana ultimately becomes Samadhi, which builds upon itself leading to higher and higher states of Divine realization.
Tantra? The third eye has no such limitations. You can be a bushman in Africa and open the third eye. It is the person, not the system. x
The concept was dhyana was well developed in the upanishads long before patanjali or the yoga sutra were ever written.
Tantra, as defined by Paramahamsa Satyananda Sarasvati in Kundalini Tantra, is "the ancient science which uses specific techniques to expand and liberate the consciousness from its limitations". The word itself means consciousness liberation. The mechanisms which constitue the consciousness of all human beings, regardless of place and time, are the same mechanisms. And these are the very mechanisms which the practices of Yoga Tantra attempt to affect, such as the cakras, prana, and so forth, through sequential pragmatic practices, dhyana being one of them. This is by no means limiting the subject, rather this puts the things which we are talking about into a more wholistic, and more authentic, understanding as methods and modalities by which one accesses the Divine Self of all reality, placing the emphasis on the Divine Mother Kundalini. This is because the purpose of all the methods employed by the practice of a Yoga Tantra sadhana is to awaken the Kundalini and guide the process of awakening to fruition. She is called the liberater and the bewilderer of man in the Hatha Yoga Pradipika. Her awakening is the culmination of what we call meditation.
