Swami Muktananda References to the Blue Pearl

Swami Muktananda (1908–1982), the great Indian saint who introduced Siddha Yoga practices and meditation techniques to the United Sates, gives a detailed description of the significance and of his experiences of the Blue Pearl.

In addition to the quotes from Muktananda on SouledOut.org's original Blue Pearl page, he gave a definition and interpretation of the Blue Pearl:

... a brilliant blue light, the size of a tiny seed, that appears to the meditator whose energy has been awakened. The Blue Pearl is the subtle abode of the inner Self.

Grand Master Choa Kok Sui References to the Blue Pearl

Pranic healer Grand Master Choa Kok Sui offers a meditation for soul realization based on the blue pearl, as the seed of consciousness located in the center of the head.

Meditation on the Soul is very powerful. The essence of this spiritual practice is to concentrate and be aware of the "seed of consciousness" or the "blue pearl" at the center of the head, and eventually become one with the higher soul.
                      - Master Choa Kok Sui, Meditations for Soul Realization, p. 112

What exactly is the blue pearl? The blue pearl is the “seed of consciousness” or the mental permanent seed, found in the crown chakra, and located in the pineal gland. Through regular and prolonged meditation on the blue pearl or the seed of consciousness, one gradually experiences one’s true nature, which is called the “Buddha Nature” in Buddhism.

Lucille Cedercrans References to the Blue-White Light and the Cave Center

Lucille Cedercrans refers to the Blue-White light of the Christ. She frequently discusses the Cave Center and gives meditation instructions relating to this experience.

As you go to sleep, slowly and easily, without creating too great a point of tension, upon a line of light withdraw the consciousness from the ajna center into the cave in the center of the head. Look outward for a moment to the ajna, ascertaining that the line of light remains intact, and then turn your attention to the line of light extending upward via the head center to loose itself in a sphere of light which is the relationship with your ashram. Realize that that overshadowing light is placed there for you by the ashram and place your consciousness within it upon going to sleep. Endeavor to remain there, with no other thought in mind than your relationship (as an incarnating Soul) to the ashram, until you go to sleep.
