How many times in a 24 hour period does a person blink?

Answer 1

I know you already have your answer, but here are some facts to consider:

Children: Infants do not blink at the same rate of adults, in fact infants only blink at an average rate of one or two times in a minute. The reason for this difference is unknown, but it is suggested that babies do not require the same amount of eye lubrication that adults do because their eyelid opening is smaller in relation to adults. Additionally, infants do not produce tears during their first month of life. Babies also get a significant amount more sleep than adults do, and, as discussed earlier, fatigued eyes blink more. However, throughout childhood the blink rate increases, and by adolescence, it is usually equivalent to adults.

Adults: Women and men do not differ in their rates of spontaneous blinking , averaging around 10 blinks per minute in a laboratory setting.

Gurus: It is also observed that enlightened gurus do not blink or blink less than the average person depending on their level neurological detachment. This is especially true when they are in open eyed samadhi. This only manifests in gurus of high accomplishment and is not common in the experience of most mystics. Three examples of gurus who have readily manifested this are Yogananda, Osho, and Sri Chinmoy.
