Closing Our Eyes in Meditation

A woman asks how essential it is to close our eyes during meditation. Rupert responds that the reason for closing our eyes is to shut out the world; the larger part of objective experience is removed with eyes closed. You still have thoughts and feelings, but the world is no longer an distraction. But either way, eyes closed or open, remain as being.
