Trataka is a yogic purification and a tantric method, which requires staring at a single point. It can be a small object, a black dot, or even a candle flame. During this exercise, the eyeballs must remain steady and no blinking, of course. There are two types of trataka, external and internal. If you are doing internal trataka, the eyes are closed and the mind concentrates on an inside element. Commonly focus on the area between your eyebrows.In external trataka, your eyes are open and your mind is focusing on an actual object outside.If you have a weak vision or mild eye problems do the method for 5 minutes every day.
