Awakening the Third Eye

(Barré) #1

their energy consciously you will greatly facilitate the process.
Apart from this it is valuable to cultivate a certain aspiration, to
pray for their help. Guides and angels have a certain code of
ethics: they have a great respect for the free will of human
beings. It is therefore much easier for them to help if you ask
them first. Now be careful, because mental prayers usually don't
reach very far in heaven. In fact, the less mental your prayers are
and the more they are accompanied by true perception, the better
they work.
Apart from your receptivity, some other factors play a part.
Angels live in very pure spheres, and some physical environments
are simply not fit for them to connect with. If the place is too
dirty or messy, if the vibrations are too heavy, if there have been
people drinking alcohol or fighting, or if the place is full of the
smell of tobacco, then to the angel it is a suffocating space. The
angel cannot approach or connect with you.
Have a good look at your room and ask yourself: Would an angel
come down here? And then take measures to improve the situation.
(This approach makes cleaning much more interesting!)
There is an art of weaving good vibrations in a room that greatly
facilitates the connection with higher spheres.
Even more important than your environment, is... yourself! If
your vibrations are not right, or if you are too agitated, the
angels cannot do their work. All the thoughts, words and actions
of the day weave a web of vibrations inside you, which determines
to a great extent how deep the light of the angel can penetrate.
But once more, the moment of falling asleep is critical. It can have
an even greater influence than all the activities of the day, just as
in the story of the virtuous man who became angry at the
moment of leaving his body. So, we come to another reason why a
time of coherent consciousness before falling asleep can have very
positive consequences. Through night practice you can leave your
subtle bodies in a condition that allows higher spiritual beings to
come and help. The practice indicated in the following chapter
(phases 4 and 6, in particular) operates a rearrangement and a
powerful withdrawal of the senses from their objects of
perception. This creates an internalization of the astral senses,
very favourable to their development during the night.
