While meditating what to do - Eyes open or Closed?

Tweet

We may think while doing meditation why we are asked to close our eyes. Can't we do with eyes open. Most people fall asleep during meditation with eyes closed. We feel lethargy, and a kind of restful, sweet sensation. So best to meditate with seeing our tip of nose i.e. with the eyes half open and half closed. We can see what is around and focus our inner attention.
