When You Pray

It's admiring to know that you could focus that way. Me, i prefer to keep my eyes close,coz I could easily get distracted with all the things around that my eyes can see. I feel more ease that way when communicating with GOD.

well it depends.... sometimes i keep my eyes open and sometimes closed... bt yes i feel that when eyes are open,i am more focussed on the idol of GOD and try to seep in all the details.... when eyes are closed...distraction occurs more.... but u knw pedro,the main aim of meditation is this that we learn the art of concentrating with our eyes closed....well it will take time but how ecstatic it wud be when i will be able to concentrate with eyes closed.... :-)

...both! Some one way, some the other..

you're weird. ^__^ most people would close their eyes when they pray. i do too. when i leave my eyes open i see a lot of distractions and i cant focus on praying. well, i guess people are really different and unique from each other. ^__^

It all depends on where I am at the time. Of course, in church, I close my eyes. I also do this in other places, especially if I'm praying 'with someone.' When I'm alone, I'll often keep my eyes open, and talk to 'Him' aloud.

When i pray i always close my eyes becuase it makes me feel that im really talking to GOd face to face..And i can feel too that i speaks from my heart but when i open my eyes i get distracted wheni can see alot of things so i always close my eyes so i can pray intimately.
