What is the ‘Third Eye’ eye?
|
|
Sometimes called the spiritual eye. A term used in reference to the place between the eyebrows to which attention can be directed when meditating, for reasons of strengthening the force.
Doing this effectively internalises attention, so assisting the energy to flow. The Chinese call it Qi - pronounced chee as in cheese.
It is also an automatic reflex that happens as a medium starts to communicate; this internalising of attention activates the internal organs we believe are instrumental in the process, i.e. the pineal and pituitary glands in the brain.

At the moment I am studying for a diploma in Chinese medicine and Acupuncture, and we learn that this point is also used for the relief of headaches; other reasons apply here for certain places to be important which are also on the same endocrine system.
Just an 'aside' here... Our bodies are built to have automatic responses to alarm calls, so wherever or whatever any hurt happens to be, rub gently for as long as you can, this brings warmth and is drawing attention of our body ‘intelligence’ to that place so the Meridian Lines we all have within our systems can be used by the brain to send down relief to the point of cause, to the ashi/tender point.
There are textbooks on the subject of how the eyes and brain take in the energies for regeneration from the UEF - universal energy field into our own HEF human energy field, aura. [See booklist - Reading For All - General Knowledge - ‘Hands of Light’]
Another word for this energy that you might have heard of before is prâna. For our inherited strengths or ‘genetic energy’ the Chinese say ‘pre-heaven Qi.’
The name for the energy we get from our food is ‘acquired energy’…can you guess what the Chinese name for that is? Yes … post-heaven Qi.
For the study of the ‘Body Intelligence’ see the book list in Articles – Healing - Book List, where you will see Harry Edwards book of the same name.
This subject is very interesting, and some more can be read on the 'third eye' in the chapter on chakras. See >>HERE<<
Post Script.
The third eye is 'opened' during clairvoyance and I have been asked what can one do to assist this, or maybe speed things up.
Preparation is the key, we cannot force anything without risking harm to the very well thought out system. Preparation means that we study and practice meditation and use visualisation to assist the brain [and 'third eye'.] As in exercising our muscles for running better, we 'limber up' by getting to know our guides and helpers as you would your sports trainer when deciding to go into running as a hobby or profession.
The spirit guides and helpers only want what is best for us and this is gained through co-operation, they will use us as much as we let them, but remember we are responsible for our own actions and this includes looking after our health, so don't let them over-work you.
Progression will come at a good speed, and the most used piece of advice I am always giving in church communications is 'be patient'.
If you are not going quick enough for your self satisfaction ... could it be your ego is not getting enough attention?
End.
