SCIENCE BEHIND TRATAK

Tratak or Fixed gazing is a technique widely used to gain control over mind.This has been discussed in detail in Dr.Narayan Dutt Shrimali ji's book Practical Hypnotism. When the practitioner becomes capable of doing Tratak continously without eye-blink for 30 to 40 minutes ,he gets results as he wishes.

Human brain is considered as a great secret of this universe.Inside our skull,the brain is divided into two halves.
These two halves are connected by innumerable number of fine nerves.Electricity is continously getting produced in both halves of brain.This may be thousandth part of a milli volt.When this increases certain limit ,inorder to prevent damage,the two halves of brain connects with each other.As a result we blinks our eyes.

In tratak, we stare without eyeblink at a point and this energy gets accumulated in brain which can be used for activating hidden potential inside us.If this energy is not used positively,it can be destructive for the sadhak.

When tratak is practised for 6 to 7 months,the hidden power centers in our body gets activated.

There are two rules to be observed here

• Breath should be very slow and fear-free
• We should have a fixed aim like seeing the future events or telepathy or getting things we desire

If done in improper way,tratak may cause bad results.However,when done properly,it can bring positive changes for the sadhak.
