Reading without the need of physical eyes
One of the most visible expressions of Third Eye Awakening℠ is the ability to read using the Ajna cakra instead of using the physical eyes. As thousands are successfully demonstrating worldwide, it is possible to perform a range of tasks, including reading, painting, recognizing colors, shapes and objects - all the while blindfolded.
These demonstrations revolutionize our understanding of the actual role of the two eyes as the sole visual sensory organ of our body. It also brings us to the question of differences in the cognitive processes involved in reading with the physical eyes versus reading with the Third Eye.
What Happens During Blindfolded Reading?
Normal reading (reading with eyes) is a three-step process:
1. The physical eye perceives the written words
2. Information about the words
is sent to the brain via the optic
nerve
3. The brain cognizes and understands the words
During reading with Third Eye (with physical eyes blindfolded) only two steps happen:
1. The Third Eye cognizes the written words
2. This cognition is transmitted directly to the brain
So the brain directly 'reads' or 'sees' the words through intuitive powers without any help from the physical eyes.
Whole-brain activation
During blindfolded reading, the entire visual pathway and brain (excluding the eyes) are involved and activated, proving that it is indeed a process of 'seeing' and not any other brain activity.
Significantly, the Third Eye can play the role of any of the senses, depending on which part of the brain is activated during the process. So we can hear with the ears closed, simply by activating the parts of the brain involved with hearing. This can be demonstrated through FMRI and PET scans.
With a successful Third eye initiation, the whole brain is activated. It is not mid-brain activation. The initiated Nithyananda Gurukul℠ students are experiencing the whole-brain activation, through which it becomes possible to have high levels of IQ, high emotional stability and prodigious intelligence. Everything reaches its peak possibility for the young generation.
Third Eye Awakening℠ can help solve all the problems that modern day kids and youth are facing today in society – obesity, depression, tiredness and boredom, confusion, fear, addiction to the Internet and video games, violence. All these degenerating problems faced by the new generation can drop and the children can start seeing their life in higher possibility, with joy and visionary like clarity.
Aligning to Universal Vision & Higher Intelligence
Paramahamsa Nithyananda expands on how the third eye can empower a person to become a powerful visionary leader centered on dharma, the cosmic flow of life.
"Understand: third eye is not just having one more eye on the forehead. It means your vision is in tune with the cosmic vision. When your vision becomes narrow in your life, the facts with which you make decisions are more self-centered instead of universe-centered.
Life larger than lifestyle is dharma. Your lifestyle means being constantly bothered about the 6-feet frame you are holding. But looking and planning your life larger than your lifestyle is dharma. In every step, the very source in which you make decisions should expand. That is opening of the third eye.
Opening of the third eye means ensuring the path in which you are walking is aligned with the vision of the universe."
