J loves you too, here again for another video.
00:16

Out of nature, you know, as always, it's a good day, so the boy's out.
00:20
Speaker A
Trying to do what I can to absorb the elements and keep my body in balance.
00:30
Speaker A
Today, man, guys, I want to talk about the eyes, this will be an interesting subject to talk about.
00:37
Speaker A
And society, how many people you know wear glasses?
00:44
Speaker A
Many people have contacts, a lot of people have visual defects.
00:50
Speaker A
And they need something to compensate, you know.
00:56
Speaker A
As people grow older in this society, they lose their eyesight and and basically, the eyes are not really, it's not really in tip-top shape, you know.
01:55
Speaker A
Um, I have a, I have an idea I want to share with you all.
02:00
Speaker A
On one of the main causes of bad eyes or one of the main causes of making your eyes unhealthy.
02:12
Speaker A
Uh, the human body, man, we have a reflex that we call blinking, you know what I'm saying, it's just a, it's a subconscious, sometimes conscious action whereby we blink our eyes.
02:27
Speaker A
If you take a closer look at the act of blinking your eyes, each time that you blink, you are basically applying like about two tear drops to your whole, to your whole eye to keep it moist and lubricated, you know.
03:25
Speaker A
And basically, your body, your, your eyes are like an engine, it's like a, um, it's like a motor, if it's not getting lubricated, if it's not getting oiled up, eventually, it's just going to, um, wear out quicker and it's going to have problems, and that's basically what's going on today in society.
03:50
Speaker A
We're not blinking enough, people, we're not blinking our eyes enough, and because of this, our eyes are not as moist as it could be, and when you don't blink your eyes enough, your eyes become dry.
04:19
Speaker A
And then, once, once your eyes are dry, it's easier to strain them, it's easier to overwork your eyes, it's easier to, uh, burn your eyes out, you know what I'm saying?
05:09
Speaker A
So, um, let's take a look at some more things to consider, you know what I'm saying?
05:19
Speaker A
Now in this age of society, the technology age, there's basically screens everywhere, there's TV screens, computer screens, television, um, cell phone screens.
05:32
Speaker A
There's screens everywhere, and what are humans doing?
05:45
Speaker A
Humans are looking into these artificial screens basically for the whole day, it's like everywhere you go, you see somebody staring into their phone, you see somebody looking into a computer, you see somebody looking at TV.
06:40
Speaker A
And it's, it's, it's funny because when you stare into artificial things, you subconsciously put yourself in a trance.
06:55
Speaker A
It's like you, you put yourself in like a subtle trance, and when you're in this trance, when you're looking at this screen, your blinking rate, the rate that you will usually blink, because I think it's about, um, 10 to 15 times per, uh, minute, maybe.
07:09
Speaker A
But whatever rate of blinking that you might have, once you maintain a gaze at an artificial screen, your blinking rate drops by 80% or like 70%.
07:20
Speaker A
So what happens, humans are just staring at screens and that's where the problem starts, that's where the problem begins because when you stare into screens, when you don't blink your eyes, your eyes become dry, it becomes strained.
07:36
Speaker A
And if you constantly do this over time, everything just accumulates into all these, uh, eye defects, all these eye problems, um, when you look at TV, when you look at society, it's like we kind of been trained and conditioned to blink the way we do.
08:27
Speaker A
It's like you don't often see people really blink or you don't see people blink like this, because when you look at TV, when you look at all these news reporters or all these people that are on these TV shows, they train them not to blink as often, you know.
08:52
Speaker A
So this kind of subconsciously conditions us not to blink as well, but if you want healthy eyes, if you want your eyes to be, um, to remain strong and long-lived, you want to blink as often as possible.
09:05
Speaker A
So, when you're watching TV or if you're reading a book or if you're engaging in any practice, try to consciously blink more, you know what I'm saying, it might seem, uh, because if you do it, people might say, uh, it looks crazy or why are you blinking so much?
10:06
Speaker A
But trust me, if you love your eyes, you wouldn't mind blinking like this, and especially if you live in like a polluted area, like a city, like the air is already kind of, uh, polluted.
10:17
Speaker A
So you don't really want, um, your eyes to just have that stagnant, dry energy, you know what I'm saying?
10:28
Speaker A
You want your eyes to always be moist, always lubricated, so, blink more, guys.
10:36
Speaker A
I'm going to try to blink more because, you know, I've been straining my eyes, so this is something I got to correct for myself as well.
10:46
Speaker A
And I hope that, um, you do so as well.
10:51
Speaker A
This is just a quick video, guys.
10:55
Speaker A
So, start blinking more often and always question your reality, you know what I'm saying?
11:02
Speaker A
J loves you too.
11:04
Speaker A
Let me, you know what I'm saying, go back to worshipping my divinity.
11:12
