G'day,

I have tried this.

See http://www.solarhealing.com for something similar.

You can look directly into the sun during the first and last hours of the day without blinding yourself.

But, i have not done this practice long enough to get any phenomenal results.

I have friends who have done this for years...without achieving the ability to stop eating.

I would not recommend this practice as a specific method of spiritual development.

Meditation and energy work are far superior.
