Quite apart from the fact that he's hardly a good advertisement for his own product, Rawat's problem, if he wanted to exploit the health benefits of his techniques, is... what are they exactly?Opthalmology is one of those medical specialities with a tiny number of cutting edge practitioners. I believe there are fewer than 50 in the UK, I don't know about the US or other countries, who could honestly evaluate the long term effects of pressing the eyeballs, or who would even be aware that some people were doing that long term.
Sometime in the'80's he had a knowledge review where he personally emphasised the importance of not pressing, but of just giving it a light touch. Without pressing to some extent the 'light' can't be seen, & I often wondered why das lordy had done that.
I reckon that the only studies ever done on this were Space Program/Military, & that his advisors got wind of negative outcomes, & told him to cover his arse. The little info I've been able to find on this subject suggests that pressing the eyeballs is a very bad idea.
