What of this lower light? The student should remember that for the present purposes
he has threebodies of light to consider:
There is the
radiant body of the soul itself
, found on its own plane, and called, frequently,the Karana Sarira or the causal body.There is the
vital or etheric body, the vehicle of prana
which is the body of golden light,or rather the flame coloured vehicle.There is the
body of "dark light
", which is the occult way of referring to the hidden light of the physical body, and to the
light latent in the atom itself.
These
three types of energy are referred to
in the Old Commentary under the followingsymbolic terms:"When the
radiant light of the Solar Angel is fused with the golden light
of thecosmic intermediary, it awakens from darkness the rush light of anu, the speck."The "
cosmic intermediary" is the term given to the etheric body
, which is part and parcel of the universal ether. It is through the etheric body that all the energies flow, whether emanating from the soul, or from the sun, or from a planet. Along those living lines of fiery essence pass all the contacts that do not emanate specifically from the tangible world.The
dark light of the tiny atoms of which the physical vehicle
is constructed isresponsive to the stimulation passing down from the soul into its vehicle, and, when the man is under control of the soul, there eventuates the
shining forth of the light throughout the body
.This [Page 106] shows as the radiance emanating from the bodies of adepts and saints, giving theeffect of bright and shining light.When the
radiant light of the soul is blended with the magnetic light of thevital body
, it stimulates the atoms of the physical body to such an extent that
each atombecomes in turn a tiny radiant centre.
This only becomes possible when the
head,heart, the solar plexus and the centre at the base of the spine are connectedin a peculiar fashion,
which is one of the
secrets of the first initiation
. When thesefour are in close cooperation the "floor of the triangle" as it is symbolically called, is prepared for themagical work. In other words—these can be enumerated as follows:a. The physical material form with its centre at the base of the spine. b. The vital body working through the heart centre where the life principle has its seat. The activitiesof the body which are due to this stimulation are carried through the circulation of the blood.c. The emotional body, working through the solar plexus centre.d. The head centre, the direct agent of the soul and its interpreter, the mind. These four are incomplete accord and alignment.When this is the case, the work of initiation and its interludes of active discipleship become possible.Before this time the work cannot proceed. This is foreshadowed in the aspirant when there is enacteda
symbolic happening in the light in the head
which is the forerunner of the later stageof initiation.
In this
stage, the soul light penetrates into the region of the pineal gland
; there it produces an irradiation of the ethers of the head, of the vital airs; this produces a stimulation of theatoms of the brain so that
their light [Page 107] is fused and blended with the othertwo, the etheric light and the soul light,
and there is then produced that
inner radiantsun
of which the aspirant becomes conscious in his physical brain experience. Frequently studentsspeak of a
diffused light or glow, this is the light of the physical plane atoms
of which the brain is composed; later they may speak of seeing what
appears to be like a sun inthe head. This is the contacting of the etheric light, plus the physical atomiclight.
Later they become aware of an
intensely bright electric light; this is the soullight, plus the etheric and the atomic.
When that is seen, they frequently become awareof a
dark centre within the radiant sun
. This is the entrance to the Path disclosed by the"shining of the light upon the door."Students must remember that it is possible to have reached a high stage of spiritual consciousnesswithout seeing any of this brain radiance. This is altogether in the nature of phenomena, and is largelydetermined by the calibre of the physical body, by past karma and achievement, and by the ability of the aspirant to bring down "power from on high", and to hold that energy steady in the brain centrewhilst he himself in meditation is detached from the form aspect, and can look serenely at it.When this has been accomplished (and it is not an objective to be worked for, but is simply an
indication to be registered in the consciousness and then dismissed
) theconsequent stimulation produces a reaction of the physical body. The magnetic power of the light inthe head, and the radiant force of the soul produce stimulation. The centres begin to vibrate, and their vibration awakens the atoms of the material body until eventually the powers of the vibrating etheric body have swung even the lowest centre into line with the highest. Thus the fires of the body (the sumtotal of the energy of the atoms) are swept into increased activity until such time [Page 108] as there isa
rising up the spine of that fiery energy
. This is brought about by the magnetic controlof the soul, seated "on the throne between the eyebrows".Here enters in the work of one of the means of yoga, abstraction or withdrawal. Where the
threelights are blended, where the centres are aroused and the atoms are alsovibrating, it becomes possible for the man to centre all three in the head atwill.
Then, by the act of the will and the knowledge of
certain words of Power he canenter into samadhi and be withdrawn from his body
, carrying the light with him. Inthis way the greater light (the three fused and blended) illuminates the three worlds of man'sendeavours and "the light is thrown upward" and illuminates all the spheres of man's conscious andunconscious experience. This is spoken of in the occult writings of the Masters in these words:"Then the Bull of God carries the light in his forehead, and his eye transmits the radiance; His head,with magnetic force, resembles the blazing sun, and from the lotus of the head, the path of light issues.It enters into the Greater Being, producing a living fire. The Bull of God sees the Solar Angel, andknows that Angel to be the light wherein he walks."Then the
work of the four proceeds. The four are at-one
. The Solar Angel isidentified with his instrument; the life of the sheaths is subordinated to the life of the inner divinity;the light of the sheaths is fused with the light of the soul. The
head, the heart, and the baseof the spine are geometrically aligned
and certain developments then become possible
WM 183) When a Master seeks to find those fitted to be instructed and taught by Him,
He looksfor three things first of all
. Unless these are present, no amount of devotion or aspiration, andno purity of life and mode of living suffices. It is essential that all aspirants should grasp these threefactors and so save themselves much distress of mind and wasted motion.1. The Master
looks for the light in the head.
2. He
investigates the karma of the aspirant.
3. He
notes his service in the world.
Unless there is indication that the man is what is termed
esoterically "a lighted lamp" it isuseless for the Master to waste His time.
The light in the head, when present, isindicative of:a. The functioning to a greater or less extent of the pineal gland, which is (as is well known) the seat of the soul and the organ of spiritual perception. It is in this gland that the first physiological changestake place incident upon soul contact and this contact is brought about through definite work alongmeditation lines, mind control, and the inflow of spiritual force. b. The
aligning of the man on the physical plane with his ego
, soul or higher self, onthe mental plane and the subordination of the physical plane life and nature to the impress and controlof the soul. This is covered sufficiently in the first two or three chapters of Letters on OccultMeditation and these should be studied by aspirants.c. The
downflow of force via the sutratma, magnetic cord, or thread from thesoul to the brain via the mind body.
The whole secret of spiritual vision, correct perception and right contact lies in the proper appreciation of the above statement, and therefore theYoga Sutras of Patanjali are ever the text-book of disciples, initiates and adepts, for therein are foundthose rules and methods which bring the mind under control, stabilize the astral body and so developand strengthen the thread soul that it can and does become a veritable channel of communication between the man and his ego. The light of illumination streams down into the brain cavity and throwsinto objectivity three fields of knowledge. This is often forgotten and hence the undue distress and premature interpretations of the partially illuminated disciple or probationer.The light first throws into relief and brings into the foreground of consciousness those thought-formsand entities which depict the lower life, and which (in their aggregate) form the Dweller on theThreshold.Thus the first thing of which the aspirant becomes aware is that which he knows to be undesirable andthe revelation of his own unworthiness and limitations, and the undesirable constituents of his ownaura burst on his vision. The darkness which is in him is intensified by the light which glimmersfaintly from the centre of his being and frequently he despairs of himself and descends into the depthsof depression. All mystics bear witness to this and it is a period which must be [Page 185] livedthrough until the pure light of day drives all shadows and darkness away and little by little the life is brightened and lightened until the
sun in the head is shining in all its glory.
d.
Finally, the light in the head is indicative of the finding of the Path
and thereremains then for the man to study and
understand the techniques whereby the light iscentralized, intensified, entered and eventually becomes that magnetic line
(like unto a spider's thread) which can be followed back until the source of the lower manifestation isreached and the soul consciousness is entered. The above language is symbolic and yet vitally
accurate but is expressed thus in order to convey information to those who know, and protect thosewho as yet know not.(WM 213) The centre between the eyebrows, commonly called the third eye has a unique and peculiar function. As I have pointed out elsewhere, students must
not confound the pineal glandwith the third eye
. They are related, but not the same. In The Secret Doctrine they areapparently [Page 213] regarded as the same, and the casual reader can easily confound them but theyare by no means identical. This H. P. B. knew, but the apparent confusion was permitted until more of the etheric nature of forms was known. The
third eye manifests
as a result of the vibratoryinteraction
between the forces of the soul
, working through the pineal gland, and the forcesof the personality,
working through the pituitary body
. These negative and positiveforces interact, and when
potent enough produce the light in the head
. Just as the physical eye came into being in response to the light of the sun so the
spiritual eye equallycomes into being in response to the light of the spiritual sun.
As the aspirantdevelops he
becomes aware of the light
. I refer to the light in all forms, veiled by allsheaths and expressions of the divine life, and not just to the light within the aspirant himself. As hisawareness of this light increases so does the apparatus of vision develop, and the mechanism wherebyhe can see things in the spiritual light comes into being in the etheric body.(WM 215)
These three activities of the soul,
through the medium of the third eye, are thecorrespondences to the three aspects, and students would find it of interest to work these out.The
seeing of the light within all forms through the agency of the third eye
(brought into being through the realization of the light in the head, the spiritual light) is [Page 215] butthe correspondence to the physical eye, revealing forms in the
light of the physical sun
. This
corresponds to the personality
.(WM 236) 1. The soul has communicated with his instrument in the three worlds.2. The man on the physical plane recognises the contact, and the
light in the head shinesforth, sometimes recognised and sometimes unrecognised
by the aspirant.(WM 247) As every student knows, there are two centres in the head. One centre is between theeyebrows and has the pituitary body as its objective manifestation. The other is in the region at the topof the head and has the pineal gland as its concrete aspect. The pure mystic has his consciousnesscentred in the top of the head, almost entirely in the etheric body. The advanced worldly man iscentred in the pituitary region. When, through occult unfoldment and esoteric knowledge, the
relation between the personality and the soul
is established there is a
midway spotin the centre of the head in the magnetic field which is called the "light inthe head",
and it is here that the aspirant takes his stand. This is the spot of vital import. It isneither land or physical, nor water or emotional. It might be regarded as the vital or etheric bodywhich has become the field of conscious service, of directed control, and of force utilisation towardsspecific ends.(WM 423) It is therefore largely a matter of perfecting the mechanism of the brain so that it canrightly register and correctly transmit the soul impressions and the group purposes and recognitions.This involves:1. The awakening into conscious activity of the centre between the eyebrows, called by the orientalstudent, the ajna centre.

Aurélien Bory campe le portrait de la danseuse japonaise Kaori Ito qui a maintes fois foulé le plateau de l’Hexagone et que nous retrouvons avec un immense plaisir. La rencontre entre ces deux créateurs a donné naissance à un dialogue fécond, entre le dedans et le dehors, entre l’ici et l’ailleurs. « Faire le portrait de Kaori Ito est d’abord pour moi un portrait de son corps. Ce n’est pas l’étude anatomique qui m’intéresse ici, mais la mémoire d’un corps travaillé, les traces de la danse à l’intérieur de ce corps vivant… Kaori Ito est une danseuse qui a travaillé avec de nombreux chorégraphes aux esthétiques très différentes. Elle a été soumise à des influences contraires, tiraillée entre des choix artistiques. Ces tensions l’ont traversée. La danse est venue de l’extérieur pour entrer dans son corps… J’ai voulu faire le portrait d’une femme, non pas comme on le ferait en peinture, en photographie ou en littérature, mais en utilisant le corps et l’espace en tant qu’uniques prismes. Et la danse comme première optique… L’enjeu de Plexus est dans le dialogue entre le monde intérieur et le monde extérieur. Dans l’expérience humaine universelle, ce dialogue n’est-il pas ce qui conduit l’existence ? … » Aurélien Bory.
Le metteur en scène dont l’œuvre fait une part importante à la question de l’espace s’appuie sur un dispositif scénique composé de fils, on pense aux fils de marionnettes, à une forêt de lianes… Il nous propose une traversée du territoire humain en mettant en scène la question de l’entrelacement (qui est le premier sens de Plexus). Un moment suspendu qui touche à la grâce.

Solar Plexus Chakra: Belly Fat, Lower Back Pain and Asthma
Belly fat leading to obesity, lower back pain, and breathing problems including asthma symptoms are the lifestyle diseases that a closed solar plexus chakra aka Manipura chakra is responsible for.
As far as obesity and belly fat are...
Funny thing about Plexus Slim it was not even intended for weight loss when it was originally formulated. It was meant for Type 2 Diabetics. The study showed that even though weight loss varied among participants, ALL had achieved weight loss. The company wants to get the FDA approval needed to really market it to Diabetics so as they are waiting on this grueling painstaking process, they formulated a tastier version for those who would like that awesome side effect of weight & inch loss. Consequently, Plexus found that it still is balancing blood sugar. People have reduced or eliminated their insulin dependency! Other people have reported sleeping better, stress relief, clarity of thought, sustained energy, lowering their cholesterol & lipid levels.
Our bodies have an amazing ability to balance when given the right tools. If we can get our blood sugar balanced, weight can come of naturally. Having a balanced blood sugar means our organs are working together in harmony. So often one or more of our poor little organs suffer from having to compensate for the other. Sometimes it just takes getting one or two organs operating efficiently and boom, the rest are able to follow. Our brain is also involved in this compensation wheel of doom. We have important signals blocked when our bodies are out of whack. If you have an imbalanced blood sugar, you can bet that the hormones necessary to tell you to stop eating are compromised. So Plexus Slim jumps in there to wave the peace flag between your mouth and the food.
So, pick the products that you believe are right for you. We know our bodies better than anyone else so we NEED to be our own advocate. Read through the descriptions of the four products & then make an educated decision. Of course, that Little Pink Drink is the base of the products and the others are icing on the cake (so to speak). J Should you have further questions, please feel free to contact me.
Plexus Slim is designed to be simple. With all we have going on in our lives, the last thing we need is a weight loss plan that takes a few more hours out of our days. All you need to do is open your Plexus slim packet, pour it in to 12 to 20 ounces of water, shake and drink. You only have to do this once a day!
If you feel the need for more energy plexus has The Accelerator, it is a companion to the Little Pink Drink. This is also taken just once a day! It helps to substantially decrease your appetite, increase your energy, drink more water & lose weight more rapidly. There is the equivalent to one cup of caffeine to 1 capsule.
