Page "Third eye" Paragraph 6

According to the teaching of Father Richard Rohr, the concept of the third eye is a metaphor for non-dualistic thinking ; the way the mystics see.

In Rhohr's concept, mystics employ the first eye ( sensory input such as sight ) and the second eye ( the eye of reason, meditation, and reflection ), " but they know not to confuse knowledge with depth, or mere correct information with the transformation of consciousness itself.

The mystical gaze builds upon the first two eyes — and yet goes further.
