What are the signs that the third eye has opened?

Someone has asked: What are the signs that the third eye has opened?

Now first close your eyes for two minutes. With folded hands, make a resolve before the Lord. Today is the fourth day; we have to put our full energy into it. With the Lord as witness, I resolve that I will put my whole energy into meditation—one hundred percent, total! With the Lord as witness, I resolve that I will put my whole energy into meditation—one hundred percent, total! With the Lord as witness, I resolve that I will put my whole energy into meditation—one hundred percent, total! Do not save even a bit of yourself; you must be totally immersed. Now open your eyes. For forty minutes, without blinking, look toward me. Energy will awaken within; let it awaken. I will not speak to you; I will signal with my hand. When your energy rises, you have to take it upward. And when your energy rises so high that…

Explain the relationship of the two eyes with the third eye. In which way do the techniques concerned with looking affect the third eye?

Looking at a spot, staring at it without allowing your eyes to move anywhere else, will give a staticness. Suddenly the energy which was moving through the two eyes will not be moving through these eyes. And energy has to move; energy cannot be static. Eyes can be static, but energy cannot be static. When these eyes are closed to the energy, if suddenly the doors are closed and the energy cannot move through these eyes, it tries to find a new path. And the third eye is just near, just between the two eyebrows, half an inch deep. It is just near -- the nearest point. If your energy is released from these eyes, the first thing that can happen is that it will move through the third eye. It is just as if water is flowing and you close one hole: it will find another -- the nearest…

Osho, two subjects have already been discussed. I request that today we begin the discussion regarding the tilak, the tika, and the mala.

The Rothschilds are a great billionaire family in America. A woman of that family was ill, and no treatment remained; everything had been tried. She was brought to Cayce. In his “unconscious” state—unconscious from our point of view; for those who know, he was more conscious than us; in truth, until knowledge reaches the third eye, unconsciousness continues—Cayce closed his eyes and named a medicine. The Rothschilds were billionaires. A search was made throughout America; the medicine could not be found. No one could even say such a medicine existed. Then advertisements were placed in newspapers throughout the world to find it anywhere. Some twenty days later, a man from Sweden replied that there was no such medicine; twenty years earlier his father had patented a medicine of that name, but it had never been manufactured. It had only been patented; it never reached the market. They had no stock;…

In another incident, he again suggested a particular medicine to someone; a search was made for it but it could not be found. A year later an advertisement appeared in a newspaper announcing the availability of that medicine. For that previous year it had been being tested in the laboratories; it had not even been given a name but Cayce knew of it. The medicine was given to the patient who soon recovered. Cayce had suggested medicines which could not be found, and so the patients died. When he was told about this, he said that he was helpless, there was nothing he could do. He said, "I do not know who is seeing the patient and is speaking when I am unconscious -- I have no relationship with that person." But one thing was certain, whenever he was speaking in that state his eyes were drawn upwards.

Beloved Osho, eight years ago I saw you on tv. There was a report about the poona ashram. I saw you doing the energy darshan, putting your finger on to the third eye of some people, causing them to fall down. At that moment I recognized you. It took me six years to sit in front of you. The first time you looked at me, I fell down, and there was a flash in my brain. Now, sitting in front of you, closing my eyes, I see a big, black spot. Inside this black spot there is a white one. This white spot comes nearer and nearer, whirling in a circle. But just before the black spot disappears totally, I

I used to touch people's third eyes with my fingers, but I had to stop it for the simple reason that I became aware that stimulating the third eye from the outside is good if the person continues to meditate, continues to watch -- then the first experience coming from the outside will soon become his inside experience. But such is the stupidity of man that when I can stimulate your third eye, you stop meditating. You rather start asking more and more for energy meetings with me, because you have not to do anything. I also became aware that for different people, a different kind and different quantity of energy is needed from the outside -- which is very difficult to decide. Sometimes somebody falls completely into a coma; the shock is too much. And sometimes the man is so retarded that nothing happens. Because you had seen on…
