The sixth chakra is not associated with an element because self-realization places us beyond the material universe. The third eye is the seat of awareness. Another name for the third eye is the mind&#8217;s eye. It is utilized to form all visualizations. Its location places it with the pituitary gland. Medical science can measure increased production of beneficial brain chemicals such as endorphins, melatonin, and serotonin when attention is focused on the third eye during meditation.<\/p>\n<p>In Sanskrit, the yogis lumped all the pleasurable brain chemicals together calling them &#8216;Amrita&#8217;. A mudra is performed, curling the tongue to the back of the roof of the mouth as if to taste the Amrita. This helps to stimulate its production and is called the Shiva Mudra.<\/p>\n<p>Awareness of eternal knowledge comes when all desires move up to the sixth chakra. All the body elements are balanced and being is centered in blissful non-duality and realization of oneness. The elements are present in their pure essence, fostering self-realization.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3870\" style=\"width: 413px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.weightlossthroughyoga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/306706_266721590118018_1272658947_n.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3870\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3870\" src=\"http:\/\/www.weightlossthroughyoga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/306706_266721590118018_1272658947_n.jpg\" alt=\"NON-DUALITY = PURE ESSENCE \" width=\"403\" height=\"403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weightlossthroughyoga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/306706_266721590118018_1272658947_n.jpg 403w, https:\/\/www.weightlossthroughyoga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/306706_266721590118018_1272658947_n-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.weightlossthroughyoga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/306706_266721590118018_1272658947_n-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 403px) 100vw, 403px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3870\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">NON-DUALITY = PURE ESSENCE<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The color of the third eye chakra is a deep dark blue, like the sky on a moonless night.
