Introduction

Yantras are gates, spiritual "devices" designed by masters to help you help yourself.

Truth

The MIND can bend your perception of reality "slightly". It is a "feature" but also a problem.

Slightly wrong

This small bending of perception accumulates in time and generates what is caller the "ilusion veil". This "bending" can and will afect all concepts that the MIND is handling. IF you are able to tame and and teach your MIND to improve the quality of perception you are ready to start exploring the TRUTH. Otherwise all that you see and all you think is "slightly wrong" and made "dirty" by your Mind's "unreal" perception. The folowing Yantra exposes one such example of a slightly wrong mind perception, so you can have a proof of concept.

This Yantra is also a device that you can be used for testing your current levels of "minimal" clarity of perception. It can do some other things... but that you will have to find for yourself...

You can observe it below at the bottom of this page.

However you should save it to your computer and view it full screen and directly in front of your eyes at a confortable but small distance. It does not work IF you watch it from an angle or too far away.

If watched "corectly" you should have the perception of circular movement of the "wheels" in the image.

A word of caution: DO NOT WATCH IT IF you have brain problems like (but notlimited to) epilepsia.

The image is static

Of course the image is static, there is no trick.

And your eye is perceiving corectly the static pixels in the image. Those pixels are sent to your brain throught the optical nerve. This nerve is basically a set of paralel cables with one wire for each pixel sensor in your eye retina. So there is no loose of information or problem of perception inside the EYE. (unless you have an eye condition that is)

The problem is with the MIND.

The MIND is a beautifull device... however it does have some "glitches".

Most humans wrongly consider their "I am" conscience to be identical to their MIND. Observing your own mind device is an important steep on the path.

The neuronal network that you call "my mind" is trying to find a pattern in the image. For some reason it will wrongly decide that it is moving. Because of this decission it will present you with the concept of moving on the output. And you will "belive" that the image is moving against all "proof" given by another part of the same mind and agains the corect signals send to you by the eye.

Now try to make the movement STOP

Change your MIND patterns and state "in such a way" as to make the preception of movement slower and stop it completly IF POSSIBLE.

Slowing it down is also ok, and probably you will still see/perceive some movement when you focus again or move the eye.

IF you succed --> your mind is in STATE that perceives the reality "as it is" slightly better than it was perceived at the start of this small exercise.

Observe and experiment

Play with it and OBSERVE what happens when you are working with your MIND and watching directly at the yantra.

Can you move your limbs (hands/legs) and still keep the image relatively still?

Can you "move your thoughts" and still do the same?

Does it move if you watch it with the "corner of the eye"... why?

blink fast... what do you perceive.. why?

Watch it thought your semi/almost closed eyes...

When are watching it "eyes wide open" and stopping it by changing your MIND state... what does it happen to you respiration?

Maybe now you will know how to "watch things" if you want to expect a "more real" peception. :)
