"Am I losing my sanity, losing my mind, going blind?" I asked Krystianna. “I’ve started to see different colored lights surrounding my girlfriend and when I’m surfing, and hearing music I’ve never heard before.”

I met with Krystianna at the Anahulu Valley Healing Center, seeking answers to my current state of being.

"Your mind's eye and clairvoyant abilities are opening up," she said. “For you, it’s a natural result of your near-death experience.”

“What’s a mind’s eye and clairvoyant abilities?”

"That whole topic is vast. Much larger than I have the time to elaborate on today," she exclaimed. "However, the short answer is that your mind's eye is the place where you will perceive visions. This is why you have recently been experiencing various colors of light. Your mind's eye can be found here." With her finger, she gently tapped the area between my eyebrows on my forehead. I experienced a mild jolt of energy upon her touch.

"In reality, it is situated in the sixth chakra within your consciousness. Normally, it remains invisible to human sight because, in general, humanity does not believe in this capability, thus neglecting the development of this chakra. However, when you close your eyes, you are peering into the mind's eye. Most individuals witness darkness when they shut their eyes, but beyond that darkness lies the illumination of light."

She continued speaking. "If I may draw a comparison, your clairvoyant abilities or intuitive powers can be likened to the heart within your physical body. They are an inherent aspect of your being, your spiritual essence, and without them, you would not possess the qualities of a luminous lightbeing. We are all luminous lightbeings inhabiting human forms. That’s the truth of our human condition. Each and every person possesses intuitive abilities, whether they are aware of it or not. In your specific case, the reason you are beginning to perceive ethereal melodies is because your ability to hear beyond the earthly realm, known as clairaudience, is awakening. It is the faculty to discern sounds originating from the spiritual plane."

Krystianna’s message held my undivided attention, sparking curiosity and fascination. Yet, I found myself completely spellbound and overwhelmed at the same time by the unfamiliarity of it all. Phrases such as "mind's eye," "clairvoyant abilities," "clairaudience," "spirit body," "intuitive powers," and "lightbeing" were foreign to me, leaving me feeling disoriented and bewildered. As I grappled with comprehending these ideas, my head spun, and a wave of dizziness washed over me, nearly causing me to faint.

Krystianna kindly handed me a refreshing glass of water, which brought me a sense of relief.

“I’m speechless. I don’t know what to say. I’ve never heard of these concepts before. They are completely unfamiliar to me. I never knew they existed. I need to get to the truth of this matter. But how shall I proceed?” MO< "You’ve been granted the privilege of a glimpse into our sacred abode, a place in Cosmic Consciousness where all beings belong to, even though not everyone acknowledges it. At this crossroads, you are faced with two options. Firstly, you can progress forward and uncover the boundless possibilities of your authentic essence, symbolized by taking the red pill. Or, you can opt for the blue pill, and shut this whole process down, thereby allowing yourself to slip back into unconscious slumber and lead a life immersed in the illusionary realm of division and polarity by living the life of a professional surfer. One is not better than the other, but each has very different outcomes."

“Can I have both worlds?”

"You can try,” Krystianna said. “I have no control over your freewill choices. My recommendation is to start incorporating meditation into your routine. It is incredibly powerful. It cultivates inner calmness and enhances your awareness of your emotional state. The solutions you seek are found within you. Simply close your eyes, focus on your inner vision, and request guidance for your inquiries to be revealed to you."

After being shocked by Krystianna's shocking disclosures, I have no recollection how I managed to make it back home. The fatigue and exhaustion of her revelations were so overwhelming that I immediately collapsed on my bed, desperately seeking some rest. As I lay there waiting for sleep to overtake me, a recollection emerged of her words on gazing into the depths of the mind’s eye with closed eyes. A mesmerizing whirlpool of pearlescent illumination gradually materialized, swirling harmoniously in a dreamy circular motion reminiscent of the movement of a galaxy. This captivating spectacle beckoned me into its ethereal domain, ultimately lulling me into a peaceful slumber.

I don’t know how long I slept. It appears to have been a deep sleep as I did not experience any dreams, and I awoke feeling rejuvenated. As I opened my eyes, I noticed the sun descending beneath the horizon at Pipeline. To freshen up, I made my way to the bathroom to cleanse my face and rid myself of any remnants of sleepiness.

Staring into the mirror, I caught a glimpse of my own reflection staring back at me.

A couple of days' worth of stubble had developed on my face, upper lip and chin, and it was time to shave soon. I observed my chest and muscular torso of sun-kissed golden tan on Caucasian skin. I intentionally avoided growing a full beard, regardless of length, as a water drenched beard adds unnecessary weight while I'm surfing competition or surfing for fun. The same goes for my hair – I keep it short and went for the bald look. This way, when I'm in the water, the waves simply wash over my head and face without obstructing my vision or distracting me from performing at my best. I have eliminated any potential distractions from my body that could cause me to wipe out while riding a wave. With my high forehead and baldness, my head out in the water resembles a floating shiny dome.

I observed my face, which had an oval shape. The length of my face was greater than the width of my cheekbone, and my forehead was wider than my jawline. My nose, with its Nubian features, had a broad base and noticeable nostrils that connected to my mouth, which curved upwards. The eyebrows above my eyes were slightly upturned, providing a shield for my large, round hazel eyes that had a subtle almond-like shape.

Gazing intently into the depths of my wide-set eyes, I endeavored to delve beyond my ocular orbs and uncover the true essence residing within. A sense of awareness undoubtedly existed, yet I had always taken it for granted, never making a concerted effort to identify its core. However, in this moment, I found myself engaged in a verbal dialogue with my own reflection in the mirror, yearning for answers to the fundamental questions that plagued my mind:

Who am I?

What purpose have I been placed upon this earthly realm?

What is real, and what is not real?

What is the light within my mind all about?”
