Break Free

In 2008, there has been an awakening in the spirit of man. 2008 reflects the transition of old ideas into new ideas, old thoughts into new thoughts, and old ways of doing things into new possibilities. More than a new year, 2008 is the year for us to break free.

3^rd Eye has and will continue to represent those who understand that it is the gift of choice and independent thought that makes us who we are.

Who we are in the here and now reflects the choices that we made in the past. Our society inundates us with elements that have caused massive divisions amongst people:

Black against white

Young against old

Christians against Muslims

We affirm that in the here and now, we shall break the cycle of hate, judgment, and fear that has threatened to erase us from existence.

To be part of 3rd Eye is to accept the fact that we are a reflection of all peoples. To us, our environment is the palate that we color through pure thoughts and actions. We are unafraid to call you a sister or a brother because we are all from the same mother.

We realize that in order to change the world, we must change ourselves. Faith need not be a function of the religious industrial complex. We fear not the words "I Love you."

3rd Eye is peace, justice, equality, positivity, truth, reality, purity, and security.

Look at yourself in the mirror and say:

I am truth, purity, security, reality and love.

I am a conversation starter; a social centerpiece.

3rd Eye says that fear need not attempt to take refuge in our hearts and mind because we know that a person who fears chooses not to accept their pre-ordained path whose origin is the Source and whose destination is absolute reality.

As stewards and student of Knowledge it is the responsibility of the thinkers to turn on the lights in the attics of the mind of man. We must go door to door, city to city, country to country, continent to continent, and indeed planet to planet breaking through the walls of ignorance and shining rays of light upon the shadows of naivety.

We are driven by our genetics to survive, to seek the true reflection of ourselves. We owe it to ourselves to delve deep into the sea of the spiritual to unearth the oyster of freedom that holds the pearl of freedom on all dimensions.

3^rd Eye has and will be the refuge for those who want to break free.

What is 3rd Eye?

Referred to as the seat of the soul, the third eye is seen as the gate to the spiritual world. The physical location of the third eye is just above the eyebrows in the center of the head. It is said that when the third eye is activated, one can see beyond the mere physical world becomes connected to the realm of the super-consciousness.

There is much debate over the existence and origin of the concept of the third eye. Western science is beginning to discover the organic relation between the physical 3rd eye and the spiritual third eye. The pineal gland is seen as the source of the third eye activation that is described as experiencing a dream in an awakened state.

A direct portal to the dream world, many indigenous cultures including Buddhist, Hindu, and Yoruba, find the third eye as the hub that connects us to true reality. In the Book "Of Water and Spirit" by Malidoma Patrice Some a Dagra spiritual healer, he speaks of how in his culture, there is no separation between the dream world and the real world. He goes on to say that the Western world finds itself locked in to the concept that reality is only what can be seen, heard, touched, smelled, and tasted.

Just imagine if we were able to tap into the forces that allow us to shape our thoughts into realities. Wonder what the world would look like if everything that we thought of and wanted was instantly transferred into the physical world. Although this may seem to be some storyline for some science fiction movie of a sequel to the Matrix, this reality isn't to far off. Ask yourself, have you ever thought of someone the instant that they called you. Have you ever woken up and questioned if what you dreamt was real or "just a dream"?

As humans, we are reality creating machines, from skyscrapers to the international space station, we harness the power to manifest infinite realities. As individuals, we often find challenges in finding our true selves. In the Western world, it is often difficult to realize our dreams because we are so focused on the material world. Giving happiness, security, and comfort a physical form like that three story house, that Cartier bracelet, or that Italian coupe, diverts energy away from liberating ourselves. Breaking beyond the dualities that complicate our lives is achieved through focus on the unseen. Life through the third eye transcends the concepts of good and bad, right and wrong, light and dark. Through the third eye, we just are.
