Third Eye: If your Eye becomes Single, your whole body shall be full of Light


‎"When we receive initiation from a Saint, practice Naam simran to retrace our consciousness from toes to a spot behind the eyes [Third Eye Center], only then something is accomplished." (Baba Kehar Singh)


"The meditator sees a dark void ahead when he closes his eyes. Light is seen when attention is focused in the center of that darkness. Sant Tulsi Saheb articulates this thus: 'Attention is stilled in the inner sky and remains seated day and night at the portal of the til (point).' That is, the spiritual practitioner who focuses his [or her] attention in the inner void enters into the Gate of Bindu or the Tenth Door." (Swami Achyutanand, Yoga of Inner Light and Sound)


"O devotee! There are wonderful scenes within this body. Beyond the darkness of this body there is a Sky studded with the Stars, the Moon and the Sun. There is the subtle body within the gross [physical] one, and in that subtle body is the causal one. And yet there is the fourth one, that is, the supra-causal body. The fifth body, that is, Kaivalya (Oneness [Soul]) is without attributes and full of knowledge. Mehi says, the Quintessential Sound along with the Absolute [God], are present within one's body." (Maharshi Mehi)


"If one is whole, one will be filled with Light, but if one is divided, one will be filled with darkness." (Yeshua, Gospel of Thomas)


"If your Eye be Single, your whole body shall be full of Light." (Yeshua, Gospel of Matthew)


"Thus as a result of recollecting all these things the impulses of the mind are extended from the sphere of material things towards those impulses which are without limit, that is to say, wonder at the New World, and the faculty of vision which belongs to contemplation [of God]. For when the vision of the mind is mingled with the Light...., all its impulses become infinite. For none of the Visionaries or 'Gnostics' is able to distinguish the identity of the mind as a result of the vision of that glorious Light that is seen ..... for all the innermost chambers of the heart are filled by that blessed Light....". (Joseph the Visionary, Syriac Mystic quoted in, The Syriac Fathers on Prayer and the Spiritual Life, translated from the Aramaic by Sebastian Brock)


"Blessed are those who have approached the divine Light, who have entered it and been absorbed by it, mingled in its brightness." (Saint Symeon)


"I beheld in the firmament an inverted well, and was filled with resplendence of Light within." (Shabdavali of Saint Tulsi Sahib of Hathras)


Tulsi Sahib: "The disciple sees within himself the Akash (sky) which is like an inverted well, and merges his Surat [soul's attention] in it."


Sant Mat Meditation: "Those practitioners who assiduously practice meditation will behold wonderful spectacles within." (Swami Achyutanand Baba)


Anurag Sagar: "The glory of the Inconceivable is limitless -- millions of suns and moons cannot vie with one hair. The radiance of one soul is equal to the light of sixteen suns."


Third Ear


The Realm Where the Sound Becomes Audible: "There are ten doors of the body. Nine are outer, and one is inner. 'The fort of the body has nine doors [of the senses]. The Tenth is kept secret. The secret Door will not open. Only the Shabd of the Master can open it.' (Sikh Scriptures -- Ramkali Var M3, 954-13) So long as the soul wanders in the outer nine doors, it is being robbed of its birthright. It is not able to access the precious inner treasure. There is, however, the Tenth Door, where the Heavenly Music is heard. 'Oh damsel fair, you searched in all the nine doors, but did not find the precious treasure. Oh Kabir! The nine doors hold it not; It is in the Tenth Door.' (Kabir, Gauri 339-13) Guru Ram Das also says that one should turn the attention of the soul away from the nine doors and, after controlling the senses and the wandering mind, should take the soul to the tenth door from which a path leads upwards to the Original Home. The Unstruck Music is resounding there day and night, but this can only be heard by following Gurumat, the Master's directions: 'He who closes the nine doors and stills his wandering mind, enters through the tenth door his Original Home. Hears he day and night the Unstruck Music as a result of the Guru's instructions.' (Majh M3, 124-13)" (Book of Gurumat Sidhant)


"The other Music or Sound is internal and the way to listen to that is by focusing our attention on the internal 'Shabd' or Sound which is Ringing within each one of us. Shabd is a highly precious wealth in the life of every human being. So long as this Shabd is present in a man he is alive; as soon as the Shabd exits, it is the end of him." (Baba Devi Sahab)
