Awakened Insight: Kundalini Eye Focus Secrets
Eye positions during meditation explained

There are many different meditations that can be practiced in Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan, each involving specific eye positions. These eye focuses not only reduce external distractions but also serve as powerful meditation techniques, stimulating various meridians and parts of the brain.


In meditations and kriyas without a specific eye focus, it is best to keep the eyes closed to encourage inner focus and connection to your Sat Nam.


The Third Eye Point, also called the Brow Point or the root of the nose, involves closed eyes slightly lifted with attention at the brow. This stimulates the pituitary gland and triggers the opening and strengthening of your intuition, corresponding to the sixth chakra.


The Tip of the Nose focus entails slightly open eyes directed at the nose tip. This balances the left, right, and central nerve channels of the spine, helps control your mind, and stimulates the pineal gland and frontal lobe, creating new energy pathways in the brain.


The Moon Center involves closed eyes rolled downwards, focusing on the chin's center. This cools and calms emotions, helps you see yourself clearly, and connects you to your moon centers, which vary between men and women.


The Crown Chakra focus requires closed eyes rolled upwards, as if looking through the top of the head. This stimulates the pineal gland and crown energy center.


Keeping eyelids light, relaxed, and one-tenth open promotes calmness, intuition, and grounding as you enter deep meditative states. Remember that the eye-focus techniques are more than just reducing distractions; they are powerful meditation tools that impact various aspects of the brain and body.
