DRIBBLE

OPENING THE INNER EYE

The atmosphere of Thunder's room was very quiet and silent since Kunto came out of Thunder's room at around 10 pm after playing the game. Thunder still seems I was reading the book he bought in the bookstall of flea sir Suro. Sometimes his head looked up at the wall clock.

"In a moment," he murmured.

Guntur was more curious about the magical world after chatting a lot with Mr. Suro this afternoon. Mr. Suro himself has a fairly high kebatinan science. Actually, Mr. Suro knows the background of Thunder, only he does not want to disclose it even though Thunder has asked about the figure of the creature that has been protecting.

Kunto who had been hitchhiking for three days in the house of Thunder did not know that Thunder had an unbiased birthmark. But Mr. Suro on this afternoon did not give much explanation about the birthmark of Thunder that he knew when Guntur bought his book. Thunder asked him.

"If the birthmark has a special meaning sir? Then how did Mr. Suro know?" Ask Thunder.

Mr. Suro let out a long sigh there was doubt emanating on the look on his face to answer Thunder's question. Actually Mr. Suro has the answer but he took the initiative to keep it secret.

"Later you will also know the answer Gun," replied Mr. Suro.

Kunto and Adi just gawked staring at Thunder and Pak Suro alternately. The two did not understand the direction of the conversation but were also reluctant to mix it up to ask.

Without feeling the long-awaited time Thunder arrived as well. The hour hand shows at 24.00 wib, Thunder quickly entered the bathroom to begin the ritual of opening the inner eye as taught by Mr. Suro. According to Mr. Suro, the first ritual that must be done is self-purification with a bath that is accompanied by intentions and goals that are spoken in the heart before flushing the body.

Fortunately the bathroom is in the room, otherwise it will certainly cause prejudice that is not-not by mama Karmila because it is not usually thunder midnight shower.

Thunder paused for a moment while bowing his head, his heart was speaking conveying its purpose to the Almighty. Then the first dipper of water was poured starting from the crown. The first jab of coldness pierced to the bone marrow making Thunder shiver until his teeth cracked.

"Brrrrrrrrhhhhggg.." the cold voice of Thunder filled the bathroom.

In the afternoon, the temperature in the city of Bandung already feels cold when bathing, especially bathing at midnight is certainly like bathing with ice water. But all that did not discourage the determination of Thunder to perform a ritual of self-purification.

Although according to Mr. Suro self-purification can be done outside the house or in places that are considered kramat, but Guntur prefers to do it at home. There are several considerations that make him reluctant to perform ritual bathing outside especially in the place of kramat. The first is because of shame, the people who see it will definitely raise strange questions and the second is no time to go to the place of kramat.

The first condition has been done by Thunder. Then he wore a white Muslim dress, wearing a sarong complete with black knit kopyah.sitting cross-legged with the position of the right leg superimposed on the end of the left thigh bent fold under his right thigh. Both hands clenched face down are placed above both ends of his knees in accordance with the instructions said by Mr. Suro this afternoon.

Lucky for Thunder because Mr. Suro is so confident in himself that he wants to share his knowledge about the supernatural world. Even on his advice, Thunder was taught ways to open the inner eye. And midnight is beginning to undergo a ritual to open her inner eyes. He was so enthusiastic and curious to quickly see the supernatural.

Thunder face immediately sumringah heard ucpan sir Suro's. Previously he had imagined the weight of doing the ritual of opening the inner eye even had been limp first if you have to do it with fasting. But it turned out to be inversely proportional to his estimates, from the speech of Mr. Suro seems very easy to do.

"How do you do that, sir?!" Ask Thunder impatiently.

"The essence of how to open the inner eye must begin with intention, courage and herus have a strong mental. Because, if you have opened your inner eyes, you will see a world without barriers or barriers that make you able to see unfamiliar and scary sights and appearances." Bright sir Suro.

The words of Mr. Suro are still stored clearly in the memory of Thunder. But far from his heart there is little doubt whether he is ready or not when he can really see the supernatural and its creatures

Then, Thunder again said the intention in his heart to open his inner eyes with a focus on conveying the intention to the almighty God.

"Take a deep breath and throw it away slowly. Breathe three to seven times until you feel completely relaxed. When you're relaxed, you can breathe as normal." Said Mr. Suro.

"Next the second breath you close your eyes and focus on breathing as you did the first until you feel calm and comfortable. Remove all thoughts and shadows from your head. If you reach that stage you will see a black hallway that swirls inside your head." said Mr. Suro.

All the words of Mr. Suro nothing is forgotten one sentence. Thunder follows all the procedures as said by Mr. Suro up to the level of concentration on the second breathing. A few minutes passed, and in the dark room, Thunder continued to focus by closing his eyes and emptying the hallucinatory images inside his head. He regulates his breathing according to what Mr. Suro taught.

Inhaled deep air and held in the stomach for a while then exhaled through the nose slowly. The thunder performed that stomach breathing technique over and over again. I don't know how many times he did it until his body felt warm and light. His mind became calm and relaxed.

Tiny threads of sweat started coming out from the pores making Thunder's forehead slightly wet. The next moment in his head between his eyes, Thunder saw a spiral-like black passageway rolling in. He continued to focus his breathing and saw a speck of white light in the middle of the black fog scroll.

"Ahhh, my head is so dizzy." murmured Thunder in the heart.

Thunder felt his body goosebumps together with a dizzy feeling in his head as he watched the black scrolls swirling between his eyes.

"I'm not strong, I'm not strong!" Thunder Speech.

Then the body of Thunder fell backward from sitting with him. Thunder just remembered the speech of Mr. Suro and ended the ritual of opening the inner eye on his first night. But he did not try to get up to move on the mattress to sleep because his body felt weak. Without realizing it, Thunder immediately fell asleep on the floor with a prayer mat.
