		<description>I just wanted to mention that I too have had similar experiences to PERA and A. (entries April 27 2007 and nov 12 2007- see below). Both describe the sensation of hurtling through starry space. This often happens to me when I meditate. I embrace it and feel that it is a window to connect to the universe (which is in all of us). One day when I had injured my back and had to stay in bed all day, I began a deep meditation. The speed of my space journey slowed down and I began to see magnificent and colorful swirling masses and nebulas. I also had a feeling of deep stillness and awe. I would like to know if anyone else has had any &quot;outer space&quot; experiences and what they might have discovered along the way.

&quot;Also Iâ€™ve been seeing white sparkles all around me for like a month even when I close my eyes and sometimes it turns from just sparkles sprinkling down into an experience of like Iâ€™m traveling at light speed through the stars like on starwars( this part I especially have no idea about)&quot;

		<description>Dear Anil,

As a novice in the field I&#039;d first ask you why it is you are interested in only activating the Sahasrara chakra?

I would suggest taking a class from a certified Kundalini Yoga instructor and get some first hand experience in working with the centers.

I do know from personal experience, that it&#039;s important to obtain a foundation of practice prior to looking for targeted activation.  

Take a class, then purchase a book and look to deepen the practice of a particular kriya you might enjoy.

peace to you

		<description>I am a novice in this field. How can I activate my sahasrara chakra? Can we directly activate a particular chakra without activating a lower chakra?
How safe is it to go to a person who just told me that he can activate any chakra in my body directly or remotely. I am confused. Please advise.</description>

		<description>Warm Greetings,

Exploring spirituality is the name of the game.  

Seeing colors with ones eye&#039;s closed is possibly third eye activity.  It could also be simple neurological firing of the brain which produces colors.

When one can feel their third eye, they know it is their third eye.

I recommend you locate a local Kundalini Yoga teacher and take a class.  If you are interested in Third Eye work there are specific kriyas, or yoga sets, designed to stimulat the ajna center, third eye.

Keep up the exploration, it&#039;s a great ride.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve recently been exploring my spirituality through Reiki and books. When I go to bed at night and close my eyes, I can see a swirling purple circle - it was especially strong last night. Is this my third eye? It&#039;s very comforting - i love watching it. I want to get as in tune with my chakras as possible. How do you reccomend I do this?</description>

		<description>Interesting, I am not in a position to say if you are doing something wrong or not, however, I would suggest focusing on your breathing.  The breath brings us back to balance.</description>

		<description>I can see a little soft purple light that glides and moves softly like silk between my eyebrows. If I focus on it while it cirles, it can become bigger. I can see it with my eyes closed when I am relaxed and sometimes when meditating. I can see it with my eyes open if I am in a dark room.

Many years ago, after staring into it for a prolonged period of time (hour or so) I couldn&#039;t move all of a sudden and it opened up. Then I felt like I was in a rocket ship and going through outer space. My eyes were closed the whole time. 

This happened a couple of times. But now, I don&#039;t want it to happen. So whenever the light comes, I don&#039;t focus on it in meditation. 

Any advice for me? Am I doing something wrong?</description>

		<description>Greetings,

I would tend to suggest some 1st chakra exercise to help ground the energy.  Some simple things you can do is to take a walk in nature, or literally lay on the ground.

My best suggestion is to find a Kundalini Yoga instructor near you, take a class from them and ask their opinion :-)</description>

		<description>Hello,

I am pretty sure my crown is overactive. What can I do to make it normal again? I feel a strong connection to the source but I feel like the rest of my chakras are off and usually if I dowse them the ones that are off are root and heart. I&#039;ve read that overactive crown in an unbalanced system can cause chaos and that is what I feel like lately. I need balance desperately...</description>

		<description>Greetings Jayme,

This is an interesting story you have.  I can offer my perspective, but please do not take it as Gospel.

I believe that when the teacher at first could feel the stone resist wanting to be placed on your third eye, she should have stopped.  We must be mindful with crystal energy work, if a stone does not want to work with a person, then don&#039;t force it.  

I simply believe that the stone did not want to work with you, so it left.</description>
