    Hello,

    I was wondering if anyone here knows of any specific meditations(or links) that use specific eye placements/movements, and also what effect specific eye placements have on our levels of consciousness.

    Many thanks, Jack

    Very interesting.


    From what I understand , eyes should be focused between the eyebrow (Third eye).


    From here, you can either practice Zen meditation (eyes can also be downward for this I believe), or Chakra Meditation (keeping your eyes focused on the third eye, focus your awareness on a specific chakra)

    I know that ashtanga yoga uses drishti, visual focal points, during the asana practice. I believe some apply to meditation as well. I've heard of others as Dalee mentioned such as the third eye or the chakras but am at a loss for anything more specific.
