Variations of the 3rd Eye - Yogi Explains

Summary

, 21 min

How the spiritual eye can appear early in meditation — partial halos, deepening darkness, indigo, a white star, gold — and how it progresses closer. Explains it as the left-to-right brain passage via the corpus callosum, why to hold it lightly and embrace it rather than pierce it, and Ashokji's medulla-to-crown pathway for realization.
