Hi everyone,
This morning wlile meditating I experience of `seeing´a very intense,
bright light that was on my eyelids and forehead.It wasn´t bad or good. It was just there, and I continued meditation as I normaly do.
What is this brite, brite light, and what does it mean?
Thanks,

Is that not the Third-Eye, or visions of the fabled star within concentric circles, depending on your tradition of course? . Read a recent thread here
http://www.aypsite.org/forum/topic....OPIC_ID=7097 about this.
Also, Yogani writes a great lesson on Shambavi Mudra you will find here if you've not adopted this practice already.
Sounds like progress. |

Some people say it is the third eye or the crown chakra, although I have recently learned that it can be described as the Christ Consciousness- hopefully Tibetan Ice will chime in soon...

Hi Nirmal,
It's normal ... and you may get more of it (bigger, brighter, etc.) as you go .... for a while, at least.
It's part of the overall purification process; "good things are happening" as Yogani says.
When I first started practices I wondered where all the "special effects" were ... for a while.
Then, it got intense for a while.
Then, the intensity resolved and only liberation, beauty, peace and love remained.
In certain sacred writings, the glory of God is poetically called "the light of a million suns".
My guess as to why is: the light(s) that yogis and yoginis often experience behind their eyes, in the third eye (between the eyebrows area), and in some cases (i.e. my own, in the past) in their entire head.
I literally got light so bright, I *knew* someone had flipped on a bright light in a dark room .... only they hadn't .... except inside my head, literally.
I don't know about "a million suns" ..... but a couple suns, at least!
And so, your light may keep increasing .... or not. Please don't compare to my experience, or anyone else's ... everyone's experience is different, and ultimately, it's *that* the purification is happening, that is important, not *what* the purification consists of.
I hope this is helpful.
Wholeheartedly,
Kirtanman

| Jusr scenery, carry on without distraction and it will go away. Mind seems to generate these interesting things to get absorbed in. |

| Yes i have been scared out of a peaceful state lots of times from this. I'm in a dark room, and it is as if the sun shined on my eyelids. If you can relax and not get scared you can continue with meditation. |
