The Superpower of Sight

It’s often difficult to know if the stories you hear about are true. Fear of not being believed or perhaps not wanting new students to pursue certain skills, keeps many things like the superpower of sight from being talked about. But once you have had and can decode the experience yourself, you know. But decoding is difficult, because people don’t share their experiences.

I have heard about people sitting inside watching rain drops run down the window of their house, and they hit a perfect state of mind, and visually tune into the microscopic level inside the water drop; full of structures and life. I have also heard about people seeing things that were miles away as if they were standing right next to the object.

I believe our senses are not amplified to full power. Much of the information gathered is filtered out. When someone looses a sense, they say their other senses become much more acute. When I started meditating, I reached a point where the world became visually so much brighter and more vivid, like switching from regular TV to HD TV. I have also had, on occasion, similar experiences with smell and hearing.

This spring, I was sitting outside in a park, meditating. I was sitting in the grass, my headphones on, and music playing. It was one of the first warm days of spring, the sun was shining; the wind was cool and gusting lightly. I was relaxed and my brain was quiet. My dog was lying next to me, with her head on my lap. Everything was perfect.

When I meditate, I use the Foundation meditation scheme. It takes four hours to explain, but quickly the setup is:

  • sit half-lotus style
  • eyes closed
  • listen to a properly mixed music track

The meditation itself involves the phases:

  • relaxation
  • focus on the body
  • focus on the prana around you
  • touch or focus on the lower chakra
  • then middle chakra
  • and finally mind chakra
  • finish with surrendering to the Universe

Great Meditations Contain 7 Essential Elements

When I reached my heart chakra, I was rewarded with feelings of love, joy and bliss. I normally stay so focused on my chakras, that I can’t hear the music or notice my other senses. When I switched to my mind chakra, my vision came into focus. I checked, my eyes were still closed. But I suddenly saw, as if my eyes were open, bright white light; pure, uplifting, energetic white light. And as I tuned into my eyes and this field of white light, I could make out that it was filled with a number of round cellular structures, separated by space. I could see inside the cells; I could see the cell walls. And everything was moving, although the formation of the cells generally stayed the same.

It was absolutely amazing. At the time, I did not speculate on what I was seeing; I just remained in non-thought and experienced. Afterwards, I didn’t focus on what I saw too much, I just let it percolate in my mind. I slowly started to realize that I had tuned into the fluid inside of my eyeballs on a microscopic level. And after talking to many other people with the same and different visual experiences, I realize that this was probably what I did see.

Many spiritual teachers do not teach skills like the superpower of sight. And when the student stumbles onto these kinds of things, the teacher often will not explain what happened. They do want their student sidetracked on their voyage to higher consciousness. But I think it is important to talk about things and get things into the open. The age for keeping spiritual knowledge secret is passed. We have to find spiritual seekers and teach them the skills they need to develop, so they can reach what they are desperately looking for.

    This is just another example of how giving and caring you are. Thanks so much for breaking the secrecy of what we need to know. You are a true pioneer of our times.

    Is been such a blessing to cross your path.

    Namaste,

    Really loving the layout, colours and style of your site here Steve.

    I hope soon to start making a blog of my own, listing all of my experiences to date. I really should start writing all the little things down – like you say, it is all the positive things that count!

    Who would have known that I’ve only been at this for just over 5 months and I have already had a wealth of experiences to share with others!

    Namaste,
    Rick
