I used to do crystal gazing a lot, I find it's helpful as a focus for attention. I've gotten out of the practice lately though as I have been more oriented towards dealing with life and other-selves than the deep internal seeking I had been doing previously. It's also worth noting that a crystal is an entity in it's own right and can lend it's energies to amplify your own seeking.
This passage from Ra is relevent I think:
This passage from Ra is relevent I think:
Quote:29.29 Questioner: Is it possible for you to tell me how a crystal is used by an entity who has satisfactorily achieved necessary violet-ray qualification, I will say; how it is possible for the entity to use the crystal or how he should use the crystal?
Ra: I am Ra. The gateway to intelligent infinity is born of, shall we say, the sympathetic vibration in balanced state accompanying the will to serve, the will to seek.
29.30 Questioner: But can you tell me precisely what the entity would do with the crystal to use it for the purpose of seeking the intelligent infinity?
Ra: I am Ra. The use of the crystal in physical manifestation is that use wherein the entity of crystalline nature charges the regularized physical crystal with this seeking, thus enabling it to vibrate harmonically and also become the catalyst or gateway whereby intelligent infinity may thus become intelligent energy, this crystal serving as an analog of the violet ray of mind/body/spirit in relatively undistorted form.
