i dont know a hell of a lot about meditation. Please explain how you opened these chakras.

point your eyes upward toward the middle of your forehead and try to keep your breathing regular. when you get it you should feel your pineal gland vibrating/beating/pulsating. its distracting but if you can hold that for a little while... your there. ive found if i meditate right after smoking my third eye is throbbing in no time.

I just had a dream about you BTW, MT, involving us smoking some herb on a playground and you teaching me how to stay balanced on one leg for a long time. :lol: :shrug: :bongload:

Just so this post isn't totally off-topic/irrelevant:  In meditation I often feel energy around this area.  Try the meditation technique described in the Bhagavad Gita as this seems to be the best for feeling energy in that area.  Drinking lots of water and doing hatha yoga also seems to make the sensation more pronounced for me.

and I will have the will, strengthened

at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

According to Bill Hicks, 5 grams of mushrooms should do the trick. Of course, I think this forum pretty much disproves that theory.

meditating with your focus being between your eyes/tip of your nose could work. if it doesn't open it completely at least you might be able to harness some more intuition

i guess mushrooms is a good shortcut, although i think more temporary in the long term

it's possible you could do it with faith alone

Well, considering that the Egyptians thought the brain no more than a cooling unit for the blood, and disposed of it in bits and pieces through the nose during mummification (not removed from the cranium whole, since it was not even important enough for a canopic jar), it is completely unlikely that there was a temple dedicated to any part of it. I think you have been reading some "cosmic debris." You'd be better off reading John Avalon's (Sir John Woodruff's) The Serpent Power, if it's Hindu Tantra you're interested in, or Lama Anagarika Govinda's Foundations of Tibetan Mysticism if you want a Vajrayana Buddhist Tantric take on the Centers.

Personally, I would suggest that these models discribe processes that already exist outside of ordinary time, as does Buddhahood. Enlightenment is not attained, because attainment means it occurs in time, in the future. Enlightenment is not something that happens to one's ego and neither is 'the opening of the third eye.' These are descriptions of a being whose egoistic mind is quiet and Fulness/Emptiness of Pure Consciousness is the dominant Awareness of the being. These modes of being are already present to all of us, and they become obvious at moments during which our Awareness is completely of the present.

I've come close to opening my third eye, I think. I've meditated a lot, and sometimes (usually in my more "eye-focused" sessions, if that makes any sense) I start to actually see the world around me even though my eyes are closed. Kinda vague and trippy-looking, hard to describe, but definitely there. Even stranger, with my eyes closed, I can see people that are not there with them open. Sometimes they sit down in front of me like we're about to talk, which I find quite startling, and I open my eyes to see no one there...

One time this happened on BART while a student came and sat down next to me. I was already eyes-closed and meditating when she came and sat down, but in my mind's eye I began to see a textbook in my hands, which I was leafing through. I thought it was odd, didn't give it much thought, and kept meditating. Later, after opening my eyes again, I saw that the girl next to me had been reading a textbook.

One way I've found that helps for engaging the visual brain during meditation is, with eyes closed, to continually imagine that your eyes are NOT closed. Eventually your visual centers will do the rest.

The third eye has it's own unique qualities, but you can get it open the same way you got the others open. If the attempt is frustrating, it may indicate blockage and imbalance in a chakra/s below the third eye, in which case it's a good idea to be patient and focus your energy on the lower chakras.

When I run into a sticking point, and begin to feel like I'm fighting the system, I go back to the beginning, and run through the entire process again. This can take several weeks, to months, though it will take less time each time it's done. Open chakras are a result of being free of tension and blockage, a free flow of kundalini.

Hint: when you meditate on your throat chakra and you begin to feel some of that energy affecting your third eye, it might be a good time to start working on the third eye. It will feel like some of the energy in your throat starts to "float" up into the head without any effort on your part. IMO, the only reason to struggle is to learn there's a better way. Much faster to put the focus where energy manifests easily, and use the overflow to work on blockage.

Well, you'd have to grow one first. Once that is accomplished, I'd imagine it'd open just like any other eye, assuming the lids had formed properly.

it is a matter of exploration and learning, more so than acquisition.
I reccommend reading and breathing meditation, and relaxing your needy approach to this.
the needy approach will definitely block real progress.
resorting to drugs will block progress in this too because of the needy character to that decision.
become a good student of life (continuously).
the eye of wisdom
is not something you can grab like prometheus grabbed fire:
you will get glimpses along the way and that may be exciting, keep your cool tho.
(a good student does not jump to conclusions)

I have a theory about the, "Third Eye".

I think it is simple observation, combined with wisdom.

Wisdom is the ability to come to the correct conclusion VERY quickly, even if you haven't seen all the evidence... because you have so much life experience, you have developed sound judgment.

Call it a, "Third Eye" if you want... but the development of one comes from the REAL WORLD, and not from the supernatural. It comes from using the TWO eyes you actually have... and not from opening the one you don't.

Wisdom is the closet thing to magic I have ever seen. Wisdom comes from experience and an understanding of how the physical world actually works.
