The Mindful Eye



The Sakshi-Netra or The Third Eye


Sakshi means
Witnessing, watching or attending.
Netra means
The eye, seeing or being aware. 

The mindful eye
Watches all momentary self-situations,
The ever-changing and transient
Body-mind-ego’s activities. 

The mindful eye
Witnesses all moves and roles,
That the limited ego plays and gets lost
In the endless drama of personal life,
Forgetting its existential or primal source,
The Universal Energy~Awareness~Being. 

The mindful eye
Is the bridge that transforms,
The life-drama into Living Reality,
The personal past~future into the Cosmic Present,
The relative world into the Absolute Truth,
And the dualistic individual consciousness,
Into the nondual, Blissful Self-Awareness

If we learn to live our life fully,
With the mindful eye and loving heart,
Fully open and receptive;
Then, spontaneity, cheerfulness, friendliness,
Compassion, equanimity and wisdom
Will blossom naturally.
