Have you tried thogal?

Basically thogal is squinting into the periphery of the sun (don't hurt your eyes) from one of three postures, which are demonstrated in the attachment below. You do not need to use all three postures, just one that works for you.

I corresponded to you a while back with some background information, about staring into the sky which is a preliminary. Staring into the sun and moon is thogal proper.

P.S. Make sure you squint heavily when staring into the sun. Also you might want to have shade overhead to avoid general overheating.

G'day,

I have tried this.

See http://www.solarhealing.com for something similar.

You can look directly into the sun during the first and last hours of the day without blinding yourself.

But, i have not done this practice long enough to get any phenomenal results.

I have friends who have done this for years...without achieving the ability to stop eating.

I would not recommend this practice as a specific method of spiritual development.

Meditation and energy work are far superior.

G'day,

My mistake.

I have not tried this, what you cal Thogal. I thought it was related to sungazing.
