Chapter 10 – A Few Experiences on the Way
10.1 Tingling in various body parts
In this chapter we will review some of the most common
experiences, sensations and feelings you may encounter while
working on your eye and implementing the techniques of the
book.
Vibration and tingling indicate that something is activated in your
etheric body, meaning the layer of life force, or prāṇa. When
meditating if tingling takes place in your hands, arms, legs, or
any part of your body, it simply indicates that some
rearrangements are taking place in your energy. For instance some
channels that were blocked are starting to flow again, or a
particular circulation is temporarily stimulated, or some other
similar movement is taking place within the etheric body.
These little symptoms do not have any significance in themselves.
They come and go and it is best not to pay too much attention to
them.
10.2 Let things come and go
When you work with energy, a general principle is that various
kinds of little feelings and sensations will be experienced now and

hearing inner sounds, and so on. They come and they go. As long
as they do not remain on a permanent basis, they do not mean
anything at all. Take them as little releases or rearrangements of
energies. Do not dwell on them, just follow your process.
It is only if some of these were to come back regularly that you
should take them into consideration and try to understand what
they mean.
10.3 If a meditation experience becomes too intense...
Can meditation ever be too intense? That is very disputable! In
cases of high intensity it is always best to remain very quiet and
watch what is happening without reacting.
If for some reason you start feeling really uncomfortable and you
wish to discontinue the experience, all you have to do is open your
eyes and stop the practice. Just by opening the eyes, the pressure
