ABOUT THE MEDITATION🔗

This technique energizes the brow chakra, located on your forehead between the two eyebrows. This chakra is known as the ajna, which literally translates as Command.

This is the master chakra. This chakra is the seat of will. When it is activated, you will experience intense clarity of understanding. Your reasoning and decision-making capabilities are enhanced.

Above all, the third eye is the eye with which you look inward. You begin to see within for the first time.

INSTRUCTIONS

Sit in a comfortable position with your eyes closed.

Bring both your palms up to your eyes, and place them very gently on the eyeballs. Your touch should be like a feather; apply no pressure on them. In the beginning, you may be pressing without realizing. Slowly, put lesser and lesser pressure on the eyeballs.

There is energy flowing outward through the eyes. It is a very subtle energy. You are touching your eyeballs to turn the flow of the energy back in, into yourself. If you press into the eyeballs, the eye will begin to resist. Touch as if you are not touching!

When you touch gently, your thoughts also still. When your eye-movements increase, your thoughts are also racing. When the eyes are still, your thoughts also freeze. Have you noticed?

With the gentlest of touches, you will soon start to feel the energy moving back inwards. When the energy falls back, you will immediately feels a freshness, a lightness, moving all over your face, your head. The energy hits your ajna chakra. In a few minutes, you feel clear and refreshed.

When you continue the meditation for upto half an hour, the energy moves downward into your heart. Your heartbeat slows down. Your whole body will feel relaxed.

This is an excellent technique for instant relaxation. You don't even have to enter into meditation. Simply by placing your palms gently upon your eyeballs, you can rest your eyes. Whenever your eyes are feeling tired, if you have spent too many hours before the TV or the computer, try this technique.

When you continue to practise this meditation for months, you will start feeling a permanent energy in your ajna and heart areas. In the beginning it will be just a trickle of energy, but in a year's time you will feel a flood of energy inside you at all times.

With the awakening of the ajna, you will experience a clarity of purpose. You begin to see your own reality. And with the activation of the heart chakra, you will feel immense love flowing from you. You will feel connected with Existence.
