Abstract

Trataka, a meditation technique rooted in ancient yogic tradition, centers on the practice of focused gazing to foster heightened concentration, mental lucidity, and inner serenity. This abstract encapsulates the essence of our exploration into the profound art of Trataka, encompassing its historical significance, philosophical underpinnings, practical methods, cognitive benefits, and contemporary applications. Drawing on an interdisciplinary approach bridging psychology, neuroscience, and yoga philosophy, this study illuminates the cognitive mechanisms underpinning the transformative power of Trataka. Through a comprehensive review of research findings and pragmatic insights, we elucidate how Trataka can serve as a valuable tool for enhancing mental clarity, refining focus, and nurturing inner tranquility, making it particularly pertinent in the context of our fast-paced and distraction-laden modern lives.
