Hmmm,  Thanks for the info. Well Red, Your experience certainly sounds like the real deal. That's how I would want it to be anyway, no staring, just an immediate sensing. Now, if you can develop that sense even more, perhaps you can get to the point where you can "see" better what it is that's running around your apartment!

 

When talking about Kirlian photography, one has to keep in mind that a voltage is applied to the body and the photograph is the corona discharge of the applied voltage. It is not an aura. No voltage applied, no pretty photo....

 

Nox, as always, I'm intrigued. This third eye....It's often spoken of in literature of this type. And I imagine, that if one develops it, it becomes a simple thing. However, since I have no physical third eye, it is quite difficult to percieve how to open it! For example, I've hid something under a rock at the gravel pile that you may want. So I just tell you, it's under the rock. There's a billion rocks. Maybe you might want me to narrow it down a bit? So this chakra thing... Always seems like I have to fork out big money to a yoga specialist to try and learn how these things work. I've read the yoga literature and most of the classes just seem too much like a scam to me. $900 weekends and such. I'll read up on your link. I'll probably have more questions though, being the logical sceptic I am.

 

 

Ok, Now that I've ventured to The Corner, I see many of my questions can be answered there. So, I will work on this...

 ... logical skeptic? That works around here too...lol

 

 

 

 

 

Hey I agree, both are interesting. I checked out the articles you recommended. I'll try the Prana tree thing out this Spring. I think I'll stay away from the Kundalini, at least at work....some of the spontaneous physiological changes may be a bit of a complication in an office situation......

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have good night vision and sometimes walk and hunt at night. The woods around here are mostly yellow pine which are spread out do to poor soil and over harvesting by paper companies. The under brush is thick and restricts range of vision but once you're in a tree above it you have a decent range of vision. Any kind of a moon will light up the woods around here almost as bright as day. With clouds things get a little harder to make out but you can ussually still see decently enough to navigate pretty well. The mountainous hills and thick canopy of hardwood forests of East Tennessee were another story. I have walked through them at night upon occasions without a light source and on a clear night with a good moon you can barely see enough to get around clumsily. When I was fifteen I was visiting a cousine and a friend of his and him thought it would be funny to take me out into the woods on a very cloudy night and run off and leave me without a light for a while to see if I would get scared. I love the night and the woods and wasn't the least bit impressed with their childish prank and decided to get them back by not answering their frantic calls to find me after a few minutes. I later regretted it, and knew I would, but at the time I thought he deserved it for the way he and his friend had been treating me. Anyways, after they gave up and went home I decided to wait about an hour before heading back. With the clouds and thick canopy of hardwood trees I couldn't see my hands in front of my face, but still I felt confident that if I followed the sound of a barking dog in the distance I could easily find my way to a road and then could follow the roads back to my brother's place which was a couple of apartments from my cousine's. It started raining, really hard, and was begining to lightening and thunder in the distance so I decided to start making my way back by following the dog's bark. Unfortunately I found out a dog's bark can carry for miles and with all the sink holes and caves that were in those woods I decided I had better give up until morning so I tried to go to sleep under a slightly sheltered spot underneath a huge branch of an enormous oak or maple or something. I was also starting to get nervous about a search party being called to look for me once my cousine's mom found out what they had done if I didn't return soon. It would have embarrassed the hell out of me, but luckily that didn't happen because my cousine hadn't told anyone anything for fear of getting in trouble. I couldn't sleep and a couple of hours later something real big started slowly making its way towards where I was trying to sleep. For the most part it was pretty quite but occassionaly it snapped really stout sounding branches in half, branches I thought my weight wouldn't have snapped so I kew whatever it was was really big, like a very large bear or a bigfoot or something. I had a boot knife on me and I took it out and huddled down as close to the ground as I could and tried not to breath. At that point I was pretty scared and thought I was going to have to blindly fight something much bigger than myself and was likely going to be either seriously maimed or killed over my stupidity and wanting to teach my cousine a lesson. Whatever it was approached to within twenty feet of me and regarded me for almost half an hour before deciding it didn't want to mess with me and slowly walked away again. After a few minutes I decided I had better find my way out of those woods before whatever it was might change its mind. When the rain quit it was still pitch black but oddly my eyes started making slight patterns out of the blackness and I was able to sense without seeing the ground beneath my feet, ahead of me, and the trees, brush and branches around me. I knew when I was coming up on the sudden drop off of a sink hole before I got up to it. If I concentrated and strained to see I couldn't, but afterwards when I gave up I just knew what was ahead of me and could sense everything, trees, rocks, the terrain, almost everything. And even though I couldn't see--the leaves, trees, and the brush seemed to give off some barely perceptable aura like patterns that my mind's eye could go by to navigate with. I wasn't seeing the outlines of these objects, it was more as if my mind was using the sensory receptors of my eyes to fool another part of my mind into seeing different energy paterns that weren't really visible to it for another mysterious part of my mind to sense what was around me. I eventually made it out of the woods about ten miles from where I had entered and followed the roads back to my brother's apartment. I haven't thought about that night in years until this thread about night vision and auras. My ability to sense what was around me without being able to see was awesome and a great wonder to me at the time it had happened but I had never experimented with the ability nor have I had reason or need to use it sense.
