Tratak a Candle Gazing
Candle Gazing
(Trataka is a kriya with multiple benefits)
*How to practice*
✓ Sit in any comfortable meditative posture, keeping the head & spine erect
✓ Light a candle and keep it at one arm distance; the tip of the flame just below eye level. Make sure the flame is steady.
✓ steadily gaze at either the tip of the flame or the tip of the wick without blinking, till the eyes grow weary.
(Be sure not to over-strain the eyes.)
✓ Now close the eyes and visualise the flame within.
✓ once the image begins to fade cup or palm the eyes and then slowly open them.
