In page 1097 of the SCOC the great Master Paramhansa YOgananda writes:
Often it's not possible to have a good meditation. Getting up early for work; household chores; kids; sleepiness; restlessness.
Whereas it's always possible to center on the spiritual eye.
Keeping our eyes in an upward gaze helps in access to these realms. Letting the eyes drift below an even level brings us to subconsciousness and sleep.
Good advice, though I have never drifted off while meditating, my eyes do tend to forget.
U r really fortunate in this sense since many of us- including myself- have had to wrestle with nodding off and sleep during meditation. Meditation is a relaxing practice which makes it easy to relax too much.
Gazing at the third eye can be done while taking a shower, going to the bathroom, brushing teeth, eating, driving as a passenger in a car etc. It is a good practice to get into.
