I have looked up on the internet this "TRATAKA type of meditation" that you spoke of. I do not believe in coincidence...and I am being completely honest here, I did not know before reading this post what Trataka was until I looked it up and it said on Wikipedia

Quote:

Trataka (in Sanskrit to look, or to gaze) is the practice of staring at some external object.

Quote:

The second stage is staring at a candle flame. The practice is the same up until the eyes begin to water, after which the eyes are closed, and the yogi tries to concentrate on the after image, and hold it for as long as possible. At first, it will be a real after-image, but later, it will exist only in the mind's eye, and the exercise in concentration comes from trying to maintain it there for a long period of time.

Trataka is supposedly the technique which sadhakas use to develop psychic powers. Trataka on the Sun or one's own mirror image is considered to be extremely powerful, but without a guru's assistance it can be dangerous to try these.

I was doing this without knowing what it was or anything about it. I just did it because that is what came to mind. Do you know how or why it would be dangerous? I was yesterday concentrating on the flame of a candle. I have been very in "tune" to everything around me lately. I know everything happens as it may for a reason.

What do you think? Please also read my post that I entered earlier today above this one.

Love and Light,
Rebecca

I;m afraid I don't know why it could be dangerous, I have done both without realising they were "known methods" aswell!! Also do any of you see a kind of vortex that rushes in to a centre point (black and white) gets whiter after a while... in the minds eye and in the sky (in the sky it comes with sparkles all around.... I have always wondered what this might be and if there is another "side" ???? love and light xx ec

There are seven energy chakras in our body..

Each chakra is associated with a color

During a particular mediation if a particular chakra is activated then the associated color will be appeared..

I do know that the ringing in the ears is actually like a download

The left hand side of the face usually represents "receiving".
If you focus really hard on the ringing it can sometimes change into a kind of song ;)
I also see the lights but not as big as you guys, I call them sparklies. I will see them after I use some reiki or if I'm thinking about something and quickly look up. Sometimes I will just look somewhere for no particular reason and there it is sparklies!
They flash so quick for me that I haven't been able to distinguish a def colour but I think purple, deep blue and some pale yellow and a green one somewhere down the line.
I was once told by an auric reader that gold represents wisdom.

Funny enough I have always wanted to do the candle meditation thing - never knew it had such a fancy name! heehee
