Foundation meditation with eyes opened?

Is something wrong if i do foundation meditation with eyes opened?

If it's easier for you to do meditations with your eyes slightly open then that's fine. Do what feels more comfortable and let's you easily visualize and feel

Sorry, I mistook the foundation meditation with another meditation and that's why I mentioned the visualizing thing.

That part isn't relevant to the foundation meditation but it is for when color of specific energy is used.

The instructions on the JoS are very thorough in my opinion.

Don't doubt yourself brother.

If you're meditating with your eyes slightly open but can still feel the energy then there's nothing to worry about.

Reason why eyes are usually shown closed when people meditate is because we close our sight to any distractions so we can have more focus on the energy or certain places on our soul thus giving our meditations more effectiveness. If having your eyes open a bit helps for you then that's fine. Just make sure you are focusing.

If you want to use meditation specifically for certain purpose, you can use colours as it would help with directing energy more straight.
Here is magical properties of colours:

In the very beginning, I was also prone more to meditate with eyes open and even it was easier to do it like this.

But by the time I settled with my eyes closed and now it feels very comfortable.

I think this is because most of the time we was not used to do activity with our eyes closed, due to living in “external world”

I feel it just takes time to adapt.

Maybe you will keep doing with eyes open, but keep this in mind, you may try eyes closed if you want to in the future and see how it is.
