9. Connecting With the Eyes
When we gaze lovingly into each other's eyes, we connect on a deep level. Through our eye contact, we often find the first opening to embrace the LOVE we feel for each other. There is something about the other that makes us feel alive.
Some believe that they can interpret the inner world of others by gazing into their eyes. However, this only distracts us from what we need to see most: ourselves, with all our emotional and mental shadows, fears, and vulnerabilities. Whatever arises is part of our own inner world and wants to be acknowledged and perhaps forgiven.
Gazing into someone's eyes can feel as loving as a hugging meditation, even without any physical contact. However, some eye-gazing partners also like to hold hands to connect more deeply.
