    Dear NB,

    >> a) Is there any meaning to the fact that I have less problems
    focusing and visualizing with open eyes than with closed eyes ? This is
    new btw; in the past, it was the opposite. <<

    Yes, but exactly what that significance is can only be discovered by you
    through asking yourself: Why? What is different about this particular
    exercise?. Any time an exercise is difficult, there is significance.
    The exercises that challenge your abilities are the most important and
    deserve your extra effort. In order to become absolute master of your
    mind, you must never shy away from the difficult exercises and must
    never favor the easier simply because it is easier.

    >> b) Is the instruction "start with closed eyes and redo with open
    eyes" mandatory or is it just a trick because working with closed eyes
    is supposed to be easier as a first step e.g.? <<

    I don't see any significance to the sequence other than that, for most
    folks, it's easier to begin with the eyes closed. Nonetheless, as Alan
    pointed out, mastery of *both* is necessary. This becomes more apparent
    in Step Three when you begin working with multi-sensory creations, many
    of which you will want to explore with your eyes closed. There will
    also be many occasions when working with your eyes closed will be more
    efficacious. :)

    My best to you,
    :) Rawn Clark
