"Eyes
of the Goddess" honors the all-seeing, all-knowing compassion of
the Divine Mother. It also celebrates the opening of the "Third
Eye" or Ajna ("ag-nyah") Chakra. In the Buddhist
tradition, the peacock's "100-eyed tail" represents
compassionate watchfulness. For the practitioner of Tantric Kriya Yoga,
when the energy is flowing freely up the spine to the sixth chakra,
there is a feeling of having arrived at a mountaintop after a long
climb. The air is clear and crisp with an expanded sense of space and
freedom. One understands things directly without logic or reason and,
better still, can see through those illusions the preclude attaining the
heart's desire.
OM is the mantra of Ajna Chakra and the winged globe is its yantra or
symbol, an emblem of the imagination that can fly anywhere beyond the
limits of time and space. The guardians of the inner place include the
winged globe and 24 jeweled lotus flowers, each adorned with a sparkling
crystal, again depicting the sacred union of masculine and feminine
principles and the possibility of enlightenment in a lifetime.
