SELF REALIZATION

Apr 22, 2008

self enlightenment exercise no. 2  

At the very next time you look at yourself in a mirror, bring your face a little closer and raise your chin slightly.  Have no concern about how you look, but focus on the black pupils of your eyes for about 10 seconds.  

Do not be shy.... and you will get a sense of the magnificent power of your true self.

NOTES
Try to do this simple exercise every day, as you will enjoy a well deserved boost to your self esteem.    The effect is subtle and will last for hours.  You will feel confident and in control of the demands of the day.

Please post a comment or question below about how you got on with this exercise. I will gladly post a reply.

A question not a comment. Is it normal to see something in the puils?? I did but it was fuzzy and without a recognizable form.

Thanks for your very interesting quesiton Brandon. What you physically see in a mirror through the pupil of your eye is your retina, which is connected directly to your brain.

This is all very self referential, when you try and think about what is actually happening. These sort of self referential situations, defy science and even mathematics, so it's anyone's guess as to what your conciousness might choose to 'see' when faced with this bizaar situation.

I have a question for you, if you don't mind...
How does it make you feel to see this 'fuzzy and unrecognisable form' in your pupils?

I got a sense of wonderment i guess would be the closest word, as I knew something was there but i couldnt tell what.

Brandon, thanks for replying to my question. Yes wonderment is a great word to decribe the sense of Self Realization that occurs, when a mind uses its brain to look through its eye to see a direct reflection of what it is actually doing. I still find it mind boggling, just thinking about it.

I have never looked at this part of my eye before.It was amazing that after 50 some years this I never saw this part of my body.And truth be told it's one part of me that I don't hate.
Thanks so much for this and your wonderful site.

After staring into my black pupils a while i no longer could see my definition in my face just that every part of me was all one. I felt free peaceful silent and complete. A pathway to self acknowledgement.
Thankyou a wonderful exprience

I tried this after reading your e-mail message tonight. Found it a bit scarey...never seen my eyes like this before, made me think of a cat's eyes. A bit scarey. Will try again in the daylight tomorrow.

Hi Iris,
OK, try some of the other exercises on the program.
You are not alone in finding this exercise disturbing, by the way. All the very best and well done for having another try. Richard

I LOVE this exercise. It immediately re-grounds me and reminds me of Who I Really Am, and I appreciate the reminder that I'm only a few seconds away from remembering that.I once heard a wise man (NDW) say that it's almost impossible to look someone in the eyes for 10+ seconds and not love them, because our eyes really are the door to our souls, and looking at ourselves is a wonderful way to get back to love. THANK YOU!
