You'll gaze at the object for a stretch, then a bell tells you to close your eyes and watch the after-image in the dark. Back and forth, in cycles, for the length you choose.
Fixing attention on a single bright object is one of the oldest concentration methods there is. You watch the object, then its after-image, and — as attention steadies over many sessions — a settled inner brightness can arise and become the thing you rest on. The after-image is ordinary eye physiology; the steadier inner sign is a real feature of deep concentration that people report differently, so hold expectations lightly and don't strain for it. All wording here is original.
A steadier light that arises on its own, distinct from the fading after-image. Often absent early on — that's fine.

Only used when the object is set to the on-screen light. Keep it soft; a dim room and a moderate glow is easier on the eyes than a blazing one.
