Seeing Beyond the Obvious:the third eye

-
When I was little I had heard the story of the great Hindu Lord Shiva. While his other two eyes indicate his activity in the physical world, his third eye in the center of his forehead looks beyond the obvious. It stands for spiritual knowledge and power, and is thus called the eye of wisdom or knowledge.Little did i know that we all have have an ability to access our third eye

Located right between the eyebrows, slightly above the nose. This Chakra forms as our spiritual eye. What I would refer as the eye of the eye that sees beyond obvious. The third eye acts as a medium see what we call as "Clairvoyance".. Seeing beyond the obvious and understanding the signs of the universe
Intuition, visions, dreams are a result of an active third eye

The chakra is also reffered as "Ajna" meaning command or summoning in sanskrit. This chakra is often also called as Bhru madhya due to its location or Dvidak padma

Colour:
The Chakra is indigo in colour. Indigo is the colour of our intution. Ajna is our gateway to intution and our power related to Clairvoyance
 The 3rd eye is centre of our higher chakras


Beej mantra
The beej mantra is "aum"

Body parts
Head and Forehead
Eyes

Physical issues
Headache and Migraines
Problems with weak eyesight
Problems with disturbed sleep

Mental and emotional
This chakra does not relate to emotions but it goes beyond mind

A well developed Ajna gives a good idea of the big picture overall

Very often highly spiritually developed people are able to see beyond normal. They are able to receive signs or commands from universe either through meditation or in a awake present state of mind. This is a result of a developed third eye chakra

The third eyes perceptions are difficult to describe verbally . These could be more subtle than real visions

An imbalanced Ajna may cause non acceptance of spiritual belifs, lack of clarity and not been able to see the big picture
An extreme imbalanced Ajna might also cause hallucinations,indulgence in psysic fantasies and illusion


Deities
The hindu god Vishnu is said to govern this chakra. 

Archangel Gabriel is associated with this Chakra. Gabriel is an angel of messaging

Ways to heal
1) indigo :
Indigo is the colour of this chakra. Surrounding yourself by Indigo would help
2) Sitting near bodies of water and watching the water can help this chakra. Staring at sea waves is soothing for eyes and good for clearing this chakra
3) Candle excercise:  A good excercise to balance the 3rd eye. Sit in a dark room with only the lit candle as a source of light. Stare at the candle for sometime. Now close the eyes and imagine staring at the flame. You may actually visualise the flame. Again when you open your eyes, stare at the candle. Repeat this 2-3 times.
4) Reiki / Energy healing can help
5) Crystals: using crystals like Amethyst or Lapis Lazuli  or Moonstone can help
6)Meditation: meditations concentrating on 3rd eye should be helpful. Imagine your third eye, then look at it with eyes closed. Imagine it getting opened. Imagine ot being expanded like a funnel and getting opened
7)Yoga : The Child pose,shoulder stands and forward bends are very good for Ajna. Adho mukhshvanasana which is popular as downward dog can help ease bloodflow to the head

Closing Cycles: by Paulo Coelho

Closing Cycles: by Paulo Coelho One always has to know when a stage comes to an end. If we insist on staying longer than the necessary time, we lose the happiness and the meaning of the other stages we have to go through. Closing cycles, shutting doors, ending chapters – whatever name we give it, what matters is to leave (in the past) the moments of life that have finished. You can spend a long time wondering why this has happened. Things pass, and the best we can do is to let them really go away. That is why it is so important (however painful it may be!) to destroy souvenirs, move, give lots of things away to orphanages, sell or donate the books you have at home. Everything in this visible world is a manifestation of the invisible world, of what is going on in our hearts – and getting rid of certain memories also means making some room for other memories to take their place. Let things go. Release them. Detach yourself from them. Stop turning on your Emotional ...

Breaking Free: 7 Things I Stopped Doing as a Former People Pleaser

In the hustle and bustle of life, it's easy to lose ourselves in the art of people-pleasing, seeking validation and approval from those around us. Almost a decade ago, I found myself resonating with characters like Carrie Bradshaw from 'Sex and the City,' a show that once held a special place in my heart. However, as the years passed, I discovered a shift within me. I no longer found solace in the world of designer shoes and cosmopolitans; I realized I had outgrown the narrative of people pleasing and codependency that the series subtly glorified. Drawing inspiration from influential thought leaders, such as Dr. Wayne Dyer, Tony Robbins, Gabby Bernstein, Oprah, and Vishen Lakhiani, I embarked on a journey to break free from the chains of codependency Here are 7 things I stopped doing as a former people pleaser: 1. Seeking External Validation: Carrie's relentless pursuit of external validation struck a chord with my former self. Today, I no longer seek approval to defin...
