ABOUT THE TECHNIQUE🔗

From time immemorial it has been said, Close your eyes, and see your true nature within. This is exactly the instruction that Shiva gave Devi, in the Vijnana Bhairava Tantra, that ancient treasure-house of meditation techniques.

The eyes play a dual role. When they are open, they are the messengers who bring all the news of the world to you. When you close them, they give you the vision of your inner world.

But closing your eyes doesn't mean simply closing your eyelids! When asked to close our eyes, we normally close only our eyelids.

Behind our closed eyelids, we continue to see images of the outer world. We switch off the TV outside, and switch on the TV inside! Our eyes are never really closed.

There is one very effective way to still the movements of the eyes. Just imagine that your eyeballs have turned to stone! In its place, you now have two small lumps of smooth round stone! Visualize it. The moment you do, you will find that not only have your eye-movements stilled, but your thoughts have stilled too. When your eye movements are stopped, your thoughts slow down tremendously.
