How many eyes do you normally have? Well, you, obviously, know of two; the physical ones that are conspicuous and clearly located within your face. But there are, very likely, times that you see something for the first time, yet you have this feeling that it is not exactly new. Chances are that you had visualized whatever it is you are seeing now, but at a subconscious level. And much as we may be using subconscious here, in certain disciplines, it comes across as a level of, say -higher consciousness. At certain times too, you have this strong feeling about something and you may reckon it is your mind directing your line and density of thought, yet it happens to be a function of your third eye. So you cannot wonder that it is sometimes referred to as your mind's eye. ## Has the third eye always existed? From the old school of thought, the third eye has a lot to do with the mysticalsome extraordinary ability to perceive things you cannot see with your naked eyes. In fact, in many cases, it is seen as ability to perceive things even before they happen; the reason the third eye is sometimes referred to as the speculative and invisible eye. Of course, since it is not visible it is also termed the inner eye. And, in a somewhat amusing way, in some faiths, it is even given a location. In Hinduism, for example, it is said to be on your brow -right between your eyebrows, but slightly above the eyebrow junction. You have possibly seen members of the Hindu community wear a red mark right on that spot. In theosophy, which is a study of the divine within the Greek philosophy, the third eye is considered as being located within the pineal gland. This is a serious subject but it is sprinkled with funny aspects. When it comes to this discipline that is theosophy, for instance, it is believed that once upon a time -sounds like a tale of the ogres -the human third eye used to be physically located right at the back of your head (oops!). Sure -and it did perform both the physical role of watching and also the spiritual role of seeing the invisible. ## Then, what the heck happened? Well, ever heard that once upon a time you were monkeys? And then you learnt how to walk on twos and your brain developed somewhat and you became the bright beings that you are today? That is called evolving. And so, apparently, you may have had that physical third eye in those early stages of development, and it sort of dissolved or disappeared into your cranium (too much imagination here...), and now what you are left with is the ability to sense out-of-body things from your pineal gland. ## Chapter 3: Applying the Trataka Technique of Meditation You can open your third eye by following the technique popularly known as trataka. Trataka simply means gazing in common parlance. And the gazing in this meditation technique refers to the kind of concentration that you do, focusing on one particular point for a prolonged period of time.
