[Guest guest]

Namaste,

 

I would appreciate information on third eye at the back of the skull.

Thank you.

In the buddhist tradition there are five types of " eyes " , that is five

types of vision:

 

1.the common one (physical eyes, common opinions),

2.the supernatural (siddhis, extrasensory powers, clairvoyance),

3.the Law vision (profound comprehension of Karma and Dharma),

4.the Bodhisattva vision (compassionate understanding)

5.and the Buddha vision (supreme comprehension and happiness).

 

The third eye, in some way, represents all the four kinds of vision

beyond the common physical eyes, it is a symbol of unity and

integration beyond duality. There are a lot of interesting comments

about pituitary and pineal glands, but to me the sense is to develop a

higher and ulterior understanding of life.

 

You wrote of " third eye at the back of the skull " . I think that " back "

represents in this case something more unconscious and istinctual,

like a dark or deep side of awareness - that is third eye on forehead.

Yogananda frequently referred about " medulla oblongata " at the base of

the brain like a negative-pole (ego center) of self-consciousness,

where the positive one is the spiritual third eye between eyebrows

(Infinite, God center): of course to join the two poles is the goal of

Yoga.

Hi M,

 

 

Parmahansa Yogananda also understood that the process of the old mind

(the ancient primal mind)reflecting up and connecting to the point

between the eyebrows (3rd yogic eye) was connected and part of the

creative process and enlightenment. In other words we are both. This

lopping off of the human is just a temporary method of enlightenment,

the real work begins in the integration of the primal and the

enlightened. It takes two to tango. One is not possible without the

other

 

The five eyes I find fascinating, and I thank you for the post.

Integration into the Wholeness of One allows to integrate the

compassionate mind's eye.
