What Is Your Third Eye For?

The Mystery of the Third Eye

The third eye is the "gateway to higher consciousness" and is believed to be linked to intuition, spiritual insight, and inner wisdom.

First found in ancient spiritual traditions like Hinduism and Buddhism. Legend tells about Shiva opening his third eye. The Indian god Kamadeva is associated with passion and love. Kama signifies lust.

To destroy the Indian deity of desire, Kamadeva, Shiva unleashed His Third Eye. The story goes that while hiding behind a tree, Kamadeva shot Shiva in the chest. Shiva felt a twinge of unease. As a result, he unleashed his third eye, a blazing eye, and reduced Kama to ash.‎

The Third Eye's link to spiritual realms beyond our perception gives it an air of mystique.

Many people think the Third Eye can provide access to higher awareness, psychic powers, intuition, or psychic vision, in contrast to our physical eyes, which only perceive the visible world.

The fact that its abilities defy scientific explanation and common sense lends it an air of mystique and mystery, as does the feeling of tapping into something beyond the usual human experience.‎

What Is the Third Eye?

Many spiritual traditions and religions believe in a third eye and its link to intuition, even though scientific evidence is lacking to support this concept.

These traditions and faiths include Taoism, Buddhism, and Hinduism. Numerous spiritual traditions hold it in high regard because of its symbolic meaning for the intuitive eye.

Unlike the externally focused sight and hearing, the inwardly focused third eye gives a deep understanding of one's nature and the universe. It is believed the Third Eye symbolises a link between the finite and infinite, enhancing spiritual insight and enlightenment.‎

From a metaphysical perspective, there is believed to be a link between the third eye and the tiny pineal gland found in the brain. In ancient times, the tiny pineal gland was considered the temple of the soul or the location of the third eye in the human body.

Philosophers such as René Descartes, for instance, also made this connection when they called the pineal gland the "first seat of the soul", the place where our minds originate.

The Spiritual Purpose of the Third Eye

One of the spiritual purposes of the Third Eye is to facilitate communication with a more profound consciousness. Some think it can help one realise greater mysteries of life and a deeper spiritual awareness.

Opening one's Third Eye may improve one's intuition and help one gain a better sense of life direction. Many also think it opens the door to spiritual understanding, which allows one to see beyond the obvious and discover life's true meaning.

Meditation and other forms of spiritual practice open the Third Eye, which in turn brings about increased intuitive abilities, serenity, clarity, and unity with all of creation.

How to Open and Activate Your Third Eye

Concentrate on your breath by slowly inhaling and exhaling into a meditative state with your eyes closed and focus on a bright light venturing through your forehead.

A third eye can be opened through certain Yoga Poses, such as the Eagle, Dolphin, and Headstand.

Due to its central role in asana and meditation techniques, it is essential for reaching a higher state of consciousness.

Everyday existence takes on a new level of significance and awareness when we do this. Our third eye chakra is where our sense of intuition, inner wisdom, and gut feelings reside.‎
