Oooooooooohhh thank you, will begin reading after dinner. My line of thinking is that yoga is just another form of meditation and that the sexual chakra and all that jazz is explained easily by brain chemisty.

Stuff like that exists--I'm pretty sure some guy in Japan has invented a machine that can record the energy levels of chakras or something. I can look it up for you if you are actually interested, but it's always struck me as pseudoscientific.




I don't think you understand the definition of metaphysical if its something tangible that can be recorded......

Its either a metaphysical concept or its something tangible (which can be explained scientifically)

I understand the meaning--that's why I say that I view his work as pseudoscientific and am hesitant to post it.

I only brought it up in the first place because Mescalean specifically stated he would be interested in seeing something of this nature.

My offer to attempt clarification on any esoteric term still stands. :canadian:

Th Indian philosophical tradition, of which yoga and the chakra system belong to, is infinitely interesting to me.

I can lay in bed now, focusing on it. I imagine a triangle, the eye. I picture it, feel it, and focus on it with complete concentration. A couple of times I let it pull me in, and it did, with the forcefulness of DMT. A rushing universal pull, then images of clarity in my minds eye.

Ive practiced RV and Ive found it opens my third eye farther. Sometimes all I have to do is think.

good thing i said 'attempt clarification', eh? cuz that one's a doozy, but here goes:

A general distinction is made throughout India philosophy between two aspects--functions or domains--of mental life: that of 'sense-mind' (the sanskrit term being manas) and that of 'intellect' (sanskrit, buddhi). The precise meaning and role given to these two domains of mental life differ from system to system as well as in the different stages in the development of a single system, but a core of meaning common enough is present throughout.

Manas, the sense-mind, is an instrument, sometimes taken as a sense organ itself, which assimilates and synthesizes sense impressions and thus enables the self to make contact with external objects. It is involved with these objects and consequently gives rise to the possessive "my" and "mine." Manas, however is somewhat blind, lacking as it does a discriminating objectivity, and is thus referred to as a mental condition of doubt (sanskrit, vikalpa). Manas rushes out through the senses, as it were, toward the form of any object presented to it and assimilates that form to itself. It only furnishes the self with percepts that must be acted upon, transformed, and guided by a higher mental function. This is the work of the buddhi, the intellect or reason. The buddhi is an instrument of discrimination, a faculty of judgment; it determines our intellectual attitudes, fortifies our beliefs, and makes understanding possible.

Buddhism is so lovely :] it's truely a lifetime study (a lifetime I don't have).

My path in spirituality can pretty much be summer up as thus:

"Check it...I grew up a fucking screw up

Got introduced to the game

Comped an ounce and fuckin' blew up"

I used to, then with age I believe less and less in to anything.  Our minds are capable of showing us much more than we realize and I think people confuse how amazing our brains are with psychedelics.  Psychedelics are a shortcut.

To me, the self is the mind-body-complex--in other words, the conscious awareness of (and identification to) an object of material substance.

A self cannot exist if it does not have mind--as for the purpose that a self has with mind? This would be the use of the instruments of manas and buddhi, which allow it to understand the reality it is part of.

so it is impossible to transcend the mind without disappearing, essentially?

A couple of months ago I didn't know what the damn thing even was, but I must say, after taking conscious steps to "decalcify" and "awaken" mine, my life has seen some very practical improvements. Seems like my mood is better, my coordination has improved, the vividness of my imagination has left me with an appreciation of merely indulging in the occasional daydream, my dreams have become much more meaningful and vibrant, my perceptions seem much "cleaner" (as if my sensory organs had been gunked up before), and instance of deja vu have become much more comfortable. 

Anybody else out there work on their third eye? If so, how? Has it made a difference in your life?





Kundalini awakening...

Seriously, goo goo dat shiz.

I understand the true nature of reality to be beyond duality--mind/body is a dualistic distinction, as is that of the self/other.

To transcend this reality, requires transcending duality in its entirety--so, although your true Self (sanskrit, Atman) will still exist, the mind-body-complex cannot persist in a non-dualistic reality.

What is Atman? Atman (or paramatman, the highest Self), for Advaita Vedanta (my preferred Indian philosophical tradition), is that pure, undifferentiated self-shining consciousness, timeless, spaceless, and unthinkable, that is not-different from the Absolute (sanskrit, Brahman) and that underlies and supports the individual human person.

Atman is pure, undifferentiated, self-shining consciousness: It is a supreme power of awareness, transcendent to ordinary sense-mental consciousness, aware only of the Oneness of being. Atman is that state of conscious human being wherein the divisions of subject and object, which characterize ordinary consciousness, are overcome. Nothing can condition this transcendental state of consciousness: among those who have realized it, no doubts about it can arise. Atman is thus void of differentiation, but for Advaita it is not simply void--it is the infinite richness of spiritual being.
