Inner seeing in meditation develops progressively as
a byproduct of the operation of the coverings over the attentional principle.
At first, you are aware only via the physical senses. Then you begin to
see with your attention when you learn how to contemplate the content
of your awareness with your eyes closed.
True metavision is the seeing faculty of the attentional
principle when you first unite your attention with your attentional principle.
As the attentional principle is projected from its ground state behind
the pituitary center of the subconscious mind into the higher Planes,
the faculties of its coverings begin to operate.
Between the ground state and the top of the Psychic
Realm, the attentional principle operates in its astral covering. From
the Wisdom Plane to the top of the Transplanetary Band, it operates through
its causal covering. From the entrance to the Cosmic Sphere to the top
of the Supracosmic Sphere, it operates through its mental covering. In
the Transcendental Sphere, it operates from its essential form of consciousness.
These seven stages of inner seeing are detailed below:
Stage
|
Ability
|
One
|
Operation of visual senses through the brain to identify objects
in the environment
|
Two
|
Ability to see content of the mind while concentrating attention
with the eyes closed
|
Three
|
Ability to gaze using the attentional principle, activating the
principle of metavision
|
Four
|
Ability to utilize the astral senses to view 1) the finer particles
of matter, 2) the energies of the electromagnetic spectrum, 3) the
auric and pranic fields of others, 4) distant locations in space
(remote viewing), 5) dimensions of the physical universe and the
astral world, 6) time-travel through the personal, embryonic, phylogenetic
and reincarnational bands of the collective unconscious, and to
7) commune with the astral forms of other people, angels, spiritual
guides and your own Transpersonal Self
|
Five
|
Ability to use the causal senses to view 1) thought forms, 2) colored
energies of directed thought, 3) colors of the Seven Rays, 4) karmic
impressions in the unconscious mind, 5) entities in the unconscious
mind, 6) the attentional nexus of mind stuff and 7) the attentional
principle of others
|
Six
|
Ability to use the higher mental senses to discern 1) the forms
of inner vehicles, 2) the concentric spheres of consciousness that
make up the Inner Planes, 3) the spiritual essence of others, 4)
the Nadamic Path, 5) the awakened Path of the Soul, 6) the seed
atoms and nuclei of identity at the core of each vehicle, and 7)
the ensouling entity of the Subtle, Planetary, Transplanetary, Cosmic
and Supracosmic bands of the Continuum
|
Seven
|
Ability to use the pure consciousness faculties of the form of
consciousness (purusa) to detect 1) the ensouling entities of the
Transcendental Sphere, 2) the 12 forms of the spirit and its paths,
3) vehicles of consciousness in each realm of consciousness, 4)
the operation of intention, 5) the origin of ensouling entities,
spirits and vehicles, 6) the guide forms of teachers in each band
of the Great Continuum of Consciousness, and 7) the origin of mind
stuff and consciousness (chetan)

You may wish to check to see which of these inner seeing
faculties have awakened in you beyond the activity of your physical visual
senses. As you are able to visit the higher Planes at will through your
attentional principle, one by one these faculties of inner seeing will
awaken in you.
