The eyes




   The eye is the symbol of intellectual perception and clairvoyance. In many civilisations (India, Egypt, the Incas…), the "third eye" or the “eye of Shiva” is the organ of inner vision. It is the "eye of the heart ", the eye of wisdom, the eye that sees into people, from which nothing can  be hidden and which represents the divine nature of human beings.

Exercises linked to the sense of sight

-   Practice looking at things and people and trying to see them without prejudice, as an entity.
-   Make a note of your favourite colours, those with which you feel in harmony, those which have a calming effect, those which disturb you and those you find unbearable.
-   Choose a flower in a colour that you like and look at it attentively, lingering over its shape, its different shades, its beauty, its fragility. Let your gaze become contemplation. Through this meditation, you will feel your inner dimension. Then try to draw or paint
the flower.
