“During my enlightenment experience at the age of twelve, I had a spontaneous awakening of the Third Eye. The inner space and outer space broke. The first experience was that I was able to see everything around me, above me, the whole 360 degrees, ten directions, below me, everything!
With closed eyes, I was able to see 360 degrees around me on every side. I felt that the skin of the rock on which I was sitting, and the skin of this body, both carry me equally; in both I exist equally. The air, the breeze, the setting sun, the rising moon, the whole Arunachala Hill, all the plants, bushes, trees, everything just became so alive!
The next moment itself, I realized that not only I am able to see, I am able to feel, experience all of that as me. I just know I am that oneness with the Existence. ‘Moves’ and ‘moves not’, what you call as ‘near’, what you call as ‘far off’, those concepts were lost. I did not feel vulnerable, I felt so powerful.
The smallest movements of these plants is my movement, and the highest stillness of the centre of the Cosmos is my stillness.
Today, you can see the children of my gurukul and thousands of others demonstrating the same power of extraordinary vision, due to the initiation into Third Eye Awakening℠!”
