Secrets of the Tibetan Rainbow Body [The Key to Enlightenment]
(Open Your Reality) March 19, 2021: #rainbowbody #keytoenlightenment #tibetanyoga In this Open Your Reality video, I want to brief you on the rainbow body. What is the rainbow body? How is it created? And can we cultivate the rainbow body for ourselves? I’m sure many of you don’t know exactly what it is, so explain it thoroughly in this video. Basically, it's the transformation of the physical body into a light body. The Tibetans found a way to do this and there is much proof. But so did many other spiritual traditions and I think it's time more people become aware of the Tibetan rainbow body so that they can at least work towards it. And in this video, I'm going to show you why the Tibetan rainbow body might just be the physical proof we all need to see to know that high-level spiritual beings can ascend and become enlightened after their passing.

Contact Me Here For Collaborations, Sponsorship, Or Any Other Important Reason: openyourreality@gmail.com When normal people die, which is 99.9 percent of us, they undergo a physical death and a resulting reincarnation process – the usual wheel of karma and life we all go around on. However, those who are able to cultivate a rainbow body are reborn into a higher dimension of existence and no longer need to reincarnate to earth. This is the optimal situation and perhaps the ultimate goal of nearly all spiritual traditions. It’s basically a leveling up from the birth, death and reincarnation cycle on the earth plane. In fact, many of the greatest spiritual adepts in history were fully aware of this phenomenon and were specifically working towards it. You may even be unaware that each spiritual tradition has its own name for the rainbow body. This is just the name the Tibetans gave it. Taoists call it the diamond body and people who attain it are known as immortals. I first read about the Taoist perspective on this in the works of Daniel Reid back in the 90s and thought it fascinating. In Sufism the rainbow body is called the most sacred body. The yogis, who I most resonate with, call it the divine body. In Kriya yoga, which was given to us by Babaji, it is known as the body of bliss. Even the ancient Egyptians knew about it and called it the luminous body. I can go on and on, but I’ll just give a few more examples. The gnostics called it the radiant body. It is even mentioned in the Emerald Tablets, where it is referred to as the golden body. So, if all these great ancient spiritual traditions had a name for it and many of them were separated by thousands of miles and centuries of time, it seems very unlikely to me that it’s not a true phenomenon. Yet, most people, I would venture to say, have never heard of it. And this is perhaps because attaining the rainbow body is something rather special and rare, at least in Western society. However, the ancient Christians knew about it and referred to it as ascension. In case you think this is just a myth, it has been speculated that the rainbow body has occurred in no less than 160,000 cases alone in China and Tibet through its history, with many cases being documented in those country’s literature. Jesus went through this process, as did thousands of other high level spiritual adepts since his time. And I do believe that people have been achieving the rainbow body well before the time of Jesus, probably going all the way back to the time of Atlantis and even earlier. Even as recently as 1998, Tibetans have been reported transforming into a rainbow body. David Wilcock documents some specific cases in his books The Synchronicity Key and The Source Field Investigations. Typically, while it is occurring, rainbows will appear in the sky, beautiful music can be heard and even perfume-like smells have been noted. I’ve personally read of many such accounts. Nobody attains the rainbow body without being involved for a very long time in highly advanced spiritual disciplines. In one such instance of a Tibetan lama attaining the rainbow body, he was able to communicate with his old friends through dreams and visions. In those communications, he told them it takes 60 years of intensive practice to achieve the rainbow body. However, he said he wasn’t sure if that’s true for everyone. My personal opinion is that attaining the rainbow body is a process that takes many lifetimes.

Secrets of the Tibetan Rainbow Body [The Key to Enlightenment]
Ego death in less than one second? You mean suicide? - No, that is not what we mean at all. Self-murder is motivated by aversion (hate, dosa) and clinging to delusion, does not solve the problem, and leads to a very unfortunate rebirth destination. If the problem is delusion, the only solution is wisdom (prajna, gnosis, understanding, insight, clear-seeing, direct knowing).

That sounds scarier. What else ya got? - Yoga with an emphasis on ecstatic pranayama (breathwork) is a very powerful way to move energy and consciousness. Serenity meditation is a good way to settle everything out and purify consciousness.

What's the Bon "rainbow body"?

| Rainbow body, Rigpa letter "A" inside thigle |
It is a topic that has been treated fairly seriously in Tibet for centuries past and into the modern era. Other Vajrayana Buddhist teachings also mention rainbow body phenomena that occur during or after the dying process.
In Rigpa, the "A," which corresponds to the sound "ahh" [2], represents kadag whereas the thigle represents lhun grub. The rainbow body phenomenon is a third person perspective of someone else attaining complete knowledge (Tibetan རིག་པ, rigpa). Knowledge is the absence of delusion and clinging regarding the display (visions) of the basis. More
