Eyes Open or Closed?

Different meditation techniques allow for one or the other.

Closing your eyes will allow you to shut out the visual images in your environment, but it can be a strain to keep your eyes closed comfortably. Another drawback of closing your eyes is that you may tend to fall asleep. It is usually easy to have your eyes open, gazing downward at a point about six feet in front of you on the floor. Your eyes rest in such a position so that you don't have to work to keep them closed or fully open.
