Thread: Awakening the Third Eye (Meditation)

  1. Awakening the Third Eye (Meditation)

    Wondering if anyone here is familiar with the meditation techniques of the Clairvision school? This has recently come to my attention...the founder, Samuel Sagan seems like an interesting guy, a medical doctor, but someone who grew a bit disillusioned with western conventional medicine and wanted to explore consciousness deeper. He has studied with Taoists and practitioners of Kriya and Kundalini yoga, and also had a five year stint of full time meditation to see how far that rabbit hole goes.

    I only ask as some people who have experienced this form of meditation claim it allows one to perceive things in a way that sounds very reminiscent of the OBE state. I've been practicing nightly and have gotten into vibrational states a few times using it, and feeling a calmness and clarity of thinking during the daytime, so I'm definitely going to stick with it as a nightly ritual for now.

    This is kind of the mission statement of the Clairvision school:

    "The approach of the school is resolutely experiential. It is designed for people who cannot be satisfied only with other people's opinions and beliefs, but wish to gain first-hand experience of levels of consciousness. In short, it is not what you presume or accept as true that will bring about transformation, but what you experience directly. Clairvision therefore always emphasizes the superiority of experiential knowledge over belief and dogma."

    Clairvision's core practice is a form of third eye meditation using a form of yogic ujjayi (restricted) breathing while placing awareness between the eyebrows. Even if one has no belief in a third eye, this form of meditation seems to work well for a number of people, with some switching to it permanently after trying different forms of meditation...it seems to provide some with the deep sense of stillness, peace and expanded consciousness they were seeking but not getting from other forms. So for anybody interested, I would encourage you to experiment. Below is a free download link to the book in PDF form, as well as two youtube clips which provide instruction on how to go about doing this. 20 minutes of meditation practice a day is recommended.

    Re: Awakening the Third Eye (Meditation)

    Hi Samwise.

    Is there any posibillity for you to write down the guide lines of the meditation, I canĀ“t read so much text for the moment.

    I Think I am using this tequinic, if it is to focus on the 3:th eye and and just be still and observe and let the silency talk or arise??

    Love

    Thank you Samwise.
    I went to the book and found just what I had intended to look into. The Larynx and the purpose and effect of its use during meditation. This seems 280 pages of very good reading .Came just at the right time!

    Hi guys,

    Susan - happy to be of help. The youtube clips are by the book's author Samuel Sagan and are great in combination with his writing if you require any clarification on any of the details such as the tone or pace of the breath or anything like that, and it takes you through the various stages of the meditation.

    IA56 - sure thing buddy...below are the details of the practice. So yes one does put their awareness into their third eye, not no straight away, it is good to get grounded in the throat friction technique first. And yeah as you say a key part of this to be still, relax and observe...part of this works I think by getting yourself (i.e. your rational analytical mind) out of the way.

    1. Learn to breathe through the larynx to create a “throat friction” – This is a technique that you will find INFINITELY useful for so many things dealing with energy and astral work. The larynx appears to be an evolutionary gift and our upright composure appears to be what separate it’s effectiveness from that of animals who are primarily horizontal in structure. The larynx (located at the “L” spot in the picture to the right) is the location of a powerful energy amplifier and to feel its effect we are going to stimulate it by “friction breathing” which consists of relaxing the jaw to keep the mouth ajar as you inhale and exhale. Focus on the spot in the back of your throat, if you notice you can control where the “crest” of your breath lands. Normally it crests at the roof of the mouth as it travels back into your throat; we want to intentionally place this “crest” on the larynx. You will create a sort of “rushing wind” sound. It will cause the larynx area to subtly vibrate thereby activating its energy center. Do not spend so much effort on making it perfect, simply do your best to position the friction there and let your body and actions naturally align to it, with time it will be clear and easy to distinguish. (Refer to the youtube clips in the first post if requiring clarification on any details of the the throat friction practice).

    2. Feel The Larynx Energy Center – As you proceed by breathing with friction your aim is to stimulate the energy center that is located on the larynx. This is a subtle but noticeable effect. For me, it feels like a pillow of unmoving breath sitting in my throat. I feel this on a different level and it isn’t physical. At this point your mind will try to fight what it is experiencing by analyzing it, it is important to refrain from doing this at this stage, you will have plenty of time to analyze after the experience, for now, quiet the mind and proceed “charging” the larynx. Do not “try” to feel it, just be aware of the location, a gentle awareness is all that is needed, the stimulation will make it more tangible. For me, it magnifies in strength and appears to integrate quickly with feeling “normal”. I notice it’s presence but it isn’t a bold presence after it sort of “settles” in. Continue to breath with friction and be aware of this location and feeling. Congratulations, you just met one of your energy centers and it IS that easy to do. Now onwards!

    3. Feel Your Third Eye
    – As you continue charging the larynx with friction breathing turn your awareness to the point between the eyebrows, the opening to your third eye (which in reality is a tunnel stretching from the front to the back of the head like the picture below.) From here, with your awareness located on the third eye, you should feel a vibration, this can come in a couple different forms, a slight pressure, a tingling, a warmth etc. Notice whatever you are feeling there and become aware of it. This is the early energy signals that an awakening third eye puts out. It may be slight at first but with time it will become clear and subtle at the same time. The subtlety refers to how it actually FEELS, the awareness you contain on this spot will make it “clear”. This is a tough subject to describe because of the limited experience we have as a human race to describe subtle energy workings and etheric layer physics. Just focus on the feeling, no amount of words can sum up a feeling. My words are intended to get you to the feeling, not so much to impart knowledge as that is an intangible concept, this feeling is very tangible you just can’t “touch” it physically. It’s a new layer of senses most of us never knew we had and it’ll take time to integrate it into your belief systems so you can actually recognize it when it’s open. With your awareness stationed between the eyebrows and feelings of vibration, tingling, pressure, density, etc. proceed to the next phase.

    4. Enhance Your Third Eye Feelings
    – From here, we are going to hold our hand over our head positioning the palm directly in front of, but NOT touching the location of the third eye on the physical head. Hold your hand here and remain aware between the eyebrows, simply note what happens next, do not let your mind wander or analyze yet. Your “trying” to comprehend what is going on will prove to be a hindrance in the early stages. For me, holding my hand in this position created a fairly dense ball (that is the only way to describe it) of energy pushing onto my third eye from my hand. That’s the best way I can describe the feeling I got after applying the hand in position. Let this enhance the distinction so you can easily find your third eye when doing further more advanced meditations. With time you will no longer need to include this step as you will learn to find your third eye in your awareness fairly quickly. The next step is also the last, for now.

    5. Connect The Third Eye With The Larynx
    – This step involves a simple technique known as “connecting” by simply being aware of both your third eye and your larynx energy at the same time, they will naturally meld and amplify your third eye. This is truly a phenomenal occurrence. I thoroughly enjoyed this feeling and the process felt largely automatic, all that was needed was awareness, amazing. So with your awareness on the vibration of the third eye and the growing larynx energy you should begin to feel these two centers connecting. The vibration will change form and the whole thing will take on a more tangible form. I want to refrain from describing in detail what this felt like for me, because what is important is to remain totally aware of what is happening without trying to project what you think should be happening on top of the true magic, because it isn’t noticeable enough, trust the process is working and if the feelings aren’t there, then you just aren’t aware of them yet, it is still happening and the trick is to settle your awareness on these locations to bring them to your attention. As your energy centers connect it will amplify and give more form to your third eye. From here, the gateway is opening. You just met your third eye.

    Re: Awakening the Third Eye (Meditation)

    Thank you Samwise,

    I do not understand why I should have my mouth open when I inhale and exhale through the nose??

    I feel the "crest" not yet landing on the larynx but half way at least....I see forward to do this meditation...I have often felt a wortex wind in my 3:th eye...

    Love

    Hi IA,

    Sagan recommends keeping the mouth just slightly open as it slightly relaxes the throat, affecting the throat friction technique, he emphasises the importance of being relaxed with this technique. With more practice you will get better, things like this can be a little clunky to start with. Interesting that you've already had the experience of the spiral/vortex in the third eye, this is mentioned in the more advanced stages of this meditation...it sounds like this could be an interesting practice for you, I'd be really interested to hear how you get on with it. Remember the audio guidance clips in the first post if you want any clarification on any components of the practice.

    Okay Samwise, I felt my jaws to tensen when I had my mouth slightly open, but I will continue the practis to see where it leads me, thank you, and I will look at the audio guidance clips too...thank you.

    I did do again the meditation listening to the the guidance...after a while I felt like my tongue did "rise" from the middle and went up to the roof of my mouth, connecting
    up to the 3:th eye??...when I stopped the throat breathing I really felt the pulsation in the 3:th eye....I am starting to get back my "hunger" for meditation. Thank you.

    Love

    Hi IA,

    Well it sounds like you are making good progress so far with this practice, and it still only early days. And yes one can get third eye pulsations and vibrations after the meditation session. Interesting that you mention the tongue going up to the roof of your mouth! I have actually been practicing this myself of late and am making progress with how far my tongue can reach. The yogi's refer to this as kechari mudra, and in its advances stages, consider it the king of all mudras. It is meant to help channel energy to the third eye, and it can happen spontaneously in yoga, and also be practiced intentionally. Robert Bruce considers the tongue going to the roof of the mouth, and moving one's eyes to the center of their eyebrows (referred to by yogi's as the shambhavi mudra) as two key energetic switches in the head, that can also be used to boost power to the vibrational state if one is attempting projection. I'm glad to hear you are regaining your hunger for meditation! I will be interested to hear how you get on with this, and I will be sure to update this thread with any of my own personal developments.

    All the best

    Samwise

    Thank you Samwise.

    I have started my meditation journal where I will write what happens during my meditation. As last time I got such a pain in my lower back that I have to stop the meditation??

    Love

    Hi IA,

    The meditation journal sounds like a great idea. That pain sounds unusual, where abouts was it, at the base of your spine or elsewhere? And did it seem like a muscle strain, or something else? It is not unusual to get a few aches and pains at times during meditation, especially when sitting for extended periods or when new to it. It may be that your body just needs to adjust a bit to the posture, although I'm guessing it was pretty uncomfortable if you had to stop meditating. I hope you find relief from it and it doesn't get in the way of your practice.
