This exercise aims to stimulate the communication between both hemispheres of the brain, thereby increasing the "processing power" needed to see Auras. Place the picture in Fig 2 about 1 meter in front of you. Stretch your hand forward so that one of your fingers is between and underneath circles.

Change focus on the tip of your finger and overlook the circles. You should see 4 circles. Then aim to overlap the middle two to see ONE CIRCLE WITH A WHITE CROSS on top of your finger, in the middle between the two. Seeing the cross is the evidence, that the left hemisphere of the brain (connected to the right eye) is communicating with the right hemisphere (connected to the left eye).

The cross will initially float and seem unstable. Experiment with the distance from your finger to your eyes to achieve a perfect cross. You gain a significant benefit after 3-5 minutes of maintaining a perfectly balanced cross, preferably without blinking, but a magic duration seems to be 45 minutes of concentration at the time, which is said to make a REAL difference to your mental and auric abilities.

Advanced levels of concentration :
One diameter in the cross seems usually "in front" of the other. This means, that one of your brain hemispheres seems to dominate the other. Males usually see the horizontal diameter above (left hemisphere dominates) females usually see the vertical diameter above (right hemisphere dominates).

Try to get the "hidden" diameter in front as much as possible, by concentrating, on demand. The final level of concentration is to achieve and maintain a perfectly balanced cross with all four arms of similar intensity, thereby achieving a perfect balance both hemispheres. Many people experience amazing effects here. Firstly, concentration gets much deeper. Secondly, after 2-3 minutes you seem like loosing sight, with bright background becoming dark purple or pink. Your sensitivity and awareness greatly increase.

In my experience it is best to start with a minute or two and gradually increase the time every week. Short and intensive concentration seems to be better than a longer one, interrupted by the lack of skill.

Gradually, with practice you should be able to achieve and maintain the cross without the finger. While maintaining the cross try to become aware of the other 2 circles as well as everything around using your peripheral vision. You should see Auric colors around the colored circles above with your peripheral vision. When you can analyze surroundings using your peripheral vision, without loosing the cross (and the concentration), you are ready to see and read auras.

Very interesting exercise.

Give this a shot and share your experience.

Can you see and hold the cross?

What do you feel during this exercise?

That part is confusing me. What is it telling me to do. o.o


1 finger is between and underneath circles? Um... am I missing something? lol.
 
You would.

[MENTION=3379]Free Mind[/MENTION] ... ok, try just focusing on the image. Forget about the finger.

Click the image to see the gif animation of the circles forming the cross.
 
Erm...in other words cross your eyes? Thats what staring at your finger like that'll do.

By the way, the colors change when I overlap the image. It's never the same for more than 2 seconds. Red blue red blue red blue
 
The blue vertical circle dominates a lot more than the horizontal red 1. I can get them both to merge in the middle and form a cross, but not for very long.

EDIT: Did it for 3-5 minutes longer and can hold the cross no problem now. ;)


What do you feel during this exercise?

I felt like a test guinea pig. Everything went erm...really weird. xD
 
I get it. You just cross you eyes. It's like this thing: emu.arsusda.gov/snowsite/stereo/stereo.html
 
[MENTION=3671]ultrauber[/MENTION] Thanks for the link. Did you hold the cross for more than a minute?

It really is a bit different than just crossing your eyes.

Usually, either the vertical or horizontal line will dominate.
The overlapping colors also are something your brain works to negotiate.

This exercise is about holding a perfect cross, both lines represented equally strong.

It takes a surprising amount of concentration. It isn't so difficult, but it does require effort.

The first time I did this months ago, my eyes began to sting a little bit, and tears came out of my right eye.

Also, after a few mins of holding the cross I laughed a bit, just a random chuckle.

[MENTION=3379]Free Mind[/MENTION] ... could you elaborate a bit on the weird feeling you had?

I encourage everyone to give this a try. It's really interesting to feel your brain working at this task.
