What is Tratak Meditation?

Eternity Yoga Newsletter

Tratak Meditation

Some people who have never meditated are reluctant to do so because they think it will be too difficult. Tratak is a simple but powerful meditation technique that is perfect for those who want to begin to easily train the mind to become steady. Since it involves a candle, please exercise caution. Minors should always be supervised.

How to perform Tratak:

Light a candle in a dark room. Place the candle on a sturdy surface. The flame should be level with your eyes and the flame should be approximately 12 to 24 inches from your face. The brighter the flame, the better.

Sitting comfortably, focus your eyes on the flame. Try not to blink. You will feel your eyes filling up with tears. Hold the eyes open for as long as you can. After gazing at the flame and keeping the eyes open for a few minutes, close your eyes. You will see the image of the flame in your mind's eye.

Hold your gaze on the "image" of the flame until the flame dies out. This may take a few minutes until the flame is completely gone. Keeping your eyes closed, notice how the flame changes in color, size and intensity.

When the image of the flame dies, open your eyes and, if possible, focus your eyes on something in nature, an open field or just a plant or a flower. This technique is very beneficial in stimulating the pineal gland and increasing your one-pointed focus. You will feel mentally clear and calm after this meditation technique.
