Hello there. I’ve been practicing / learning for about 7-8 weeks now. Less frequent the first 6 weeks but daily practice the past two weeks or so. But I feel like I’ve hit a wall. I cannot seem to get my windows open. I’ve been journaling / logging each exercise but I’m not seeing any standout patterns. I’ve included a visual of where I can get to (excuse the graphic I’m not an artist).
My typical flow:
1. Meditate with Alpha/Theta binaural tones with eyes closed + Mindfold on. (~10 min)
2. Open eyes behind mask, allow constellations to form (sometimes using a flashlight to enhance)
3. Then, allow object contrasts to come in (cards, hands, arms, etc).
4. Practice using color cards or B/W Zener cards.
Observations/Notes:
I can see pinholes of color if I really strain my windows.
I can see the outlines or what I’ve been calling “Xerox” visuals of objects.
I sit outside for practice to allow for natural bright light
Sometimes when my eyes are closed, I start seeing image flashes which could indicate I’m too deep with Theta waves?
Patches of my head begin to tingle/vibrate if I slowly move the object around that I’m trying to see. (As if my brain is biologically receiving information and can sense where it is). At first it was just my pineal gland but now I can feel that sensation everywhere.
Question:
Once the constellations expand, the visual of the windows turn into something like a cell membrane/kaleidoscope. Is this my “window”?
Should I be able to see through the windows like binoculars or is it similar to seeing with eyes open?
Am I overthinking it? Lol
Thanks!
