The Pineal Gland, asymmetrical crystals in the pineal gland that are ‘piezo-electric'

[Carol]

I've collected this data on the pineal gland from a variety of sources. Enjoy

Pineal

There are asymmetrical crystals in the pineal gland that are ‘piezo-electric' - that is, they send out electronic voltage creating EM waves. Whenever a person is exposed to an EMF (electro-magnetic field) such as that of the earth the gland vibrates, sending out EM signals to the rest of the body. When the pineal gland is stimulated geo-magnetically it produces alkaloids similar to plant psychedelics. Any strong change in the earth's EMF will produce a rush of psychedelics in our bodies enabling us to be more psychically active in shamanic states (earth/ land receptive). The pineal gland is efected by coherent EM fields and it changes its hormone production when exposed to EM at low levels. As the earth has the greatest effect of any force on our physiology it makes sense that the cells of our body and brain align with it. All life within the envelope of earth's vibrational influence attempts to match base-frequencies.

Many people knew of the importance of the pineal gland. Magician, Delores Ashcroft-Nowicki says that to the priests of Heliopolis, the embalmers of ancient Egypt (who were the forerunners of today's pathologists), the Star Chamber of Isis (the Holy of Holies) and the Halls of Anubis and Thoth were not just fanciful terms given to mythical locations but were actually places within the living brain where the priests and priestesses traveled to be taught by the gods.

* Early medieval documents and alchemical texts refer to the ‘fallen' or lost Sofia – the allegorical term for the lost wisdom and innocence of mankind. Sofia is also represented by the fairytale “The Sleeping Beauty” where a prince has to toil through a hazardous ancient haunted forest to reach the sleeping princess. She has been sleeping for 100 years in a tower and can only be awakened by a kiss (the breath).

This process also requires the opening of the heart chakra and the third eye. They are the expressed vehicles of the soul body. The throat chakra is the expressed vehicle of the spiritual body that interprets the energies that come in through the crown chakra. They are interpreted through the Rainbow Bridge.

We keep talking about this bridge, because it is the place of integration of the languages of light into the physical consciousness. So the third eye and the heart must connect the bridge to integrate the soul.

Then you will gradually raise the kundalini energy along the spine. This is the expression of the creative force in the physical, joining the soul. The kundalini flows from the base of the spine, connects with the occipital lobe at the base of the skull, joining the spiritual energies coming in through the crown, interpreted through the bridge of light becoming consciousness in the third eye and finally begins to move down the front of the chakra system. This will be the breaking of the seven seals of the chakras. This is reported in your Book of Revelations in your Bible. This is the opening of the seals of the chakras, bringing the God force as a Heaven on Earth.

A friend is an EEG Tech. He says that when you flash a strobe light in front of his clients, only about 40% will register in the occipital lobe.

David Wilcock addresses these.

from a metaphysical perspective, that the soul of man may physically express in and around the brain and spinal cord. The soul has been described as an individualized ray of God's consciousness, which temporarily identifies with the mind/body. The soul can also be depicted as a personified portion of God resident in each human being.

Itzhak Bentov postulated that the body contains oscillators, which create a magnetic field that is connected with "EVERYTHING," when all the oscillators are engaged.

Thus, it is proposed that when the CSF and neuropeptides are flowing optimally, it affects our consciousness in such a way that we can become united with the universal consciousness in "everything." It is also suggested that this postulate may be given further credibility by the movement of a drum-like, tympanic membrane, in the roof of the lateral ventricles (corpus callosum) of the brain. We maintain that this drum-like membrane may pick up cosmic vibrations, which set the CSF vibrating in a frequency connected to universal consciousness.

Another factor, which may play a role in our connection to "everything" on the planet and serotonin levels, could be the pineal gland. Metaphysically, the pineal gland is said to be responsible for our connection to the 'rhythm of life.'

It is also suggested that the CSF may be responsible for the "Kundalini" phenomenon. Kundalini is a dormant, creative energy potential in nature and in the body. When it "awakens" in human beings, one effect is that soul qualities may emerge.

The opiate substance secreted from the pineal gland during Samadhi has been variously called Nectar of the Gods, ambrosia, amrita, and the Living Water.

When the Crystal Palace lights up a secretion from the area might be released into the back of the throat. "The White Drop" would be some intense opiate that acts to open the heart.

The main function of the pineal gland is its role in mediating circadian rhythms of the animal through the production of the hormone melatonin, from its precursor amino acid tryptophan. The pineal gland is most active in early morning hours... hence meditation is often undergone at this time. The pineal gland is the only singular organ in the brain and is located near the upper end of the spinal cord, which ends or terminates in the oldest anatomical region in the brain.

Taoists call the center of the brain between the pineal and the pituitary "the Crystal Palace." It's between the old brain at the back and the new brain at the front of the head, between the left and right hemispheres, sitting above the two wings of the mysterious ventricles. It rests between the two large cerebrums at the anterior end of the cerebellum. The cerebellum is one of the oldest features of the brain, involved in coordinating muscular activity in the body. It's said that when the pineal gland is activated it becomes illuminated like a thousands suns. The sense of white light flowing within and without may be when the pineal gland is highly activated producing DMT type chemistry during the height of the peak.

When the Crystal Chamber is lit transcendental vision occurs. Transcendental vision probably occurs due to increased kundalini flow raising dopamine and phenylethylamine, etc.. All kind of changes happen in the retinas and occipital lobes, including increased ATP production acting as a neurotransmitter and histamine increasing blood flow in the brain, and increase in nitric oxide metabolism. The end result being that one has an increase in visual acuity, inner visions, inner lights, seeing auras and vivid dreams.

The Biology of the Inner Light

Meditation evokes pineal DMT release through EM vibrations. Visionary experience with symbolic or religious content gives way to dazzling light of illumination, reported in eastern and western religions. Meditation modulates pineal activity, eliciting a standing wave through resonance effects that coordinates other brain centers with both chemicals and electromagnetism. Resonance is induced in the pineal gland using electric, magnetic, or sound energy, re-synchronizing both hemispheres of the brain, resulting in a chain of synergetic harmony that releases DMT, an endogenous psychedelic. The pineal contains high levels of enzymes and building-blocks for DMT, which may be secreted when inhibitory processes cease blocking its production with other chemicals, such as beta-carbolines which magnify and prolong DMT effects. DMT is the source of visionary Light in transpersonal experiences. Its primary source, the pineal, has traditionally been referred to as the Third Eye. Curiously, this gland is light sensitive and actually has a lens, cornea, and retina. DMT production is particularly stimulated in the extraordinary conditions of birth, sexual ecstasy, childbirth, extreme physical stress, near-death, psychosis, and physical death, as well as meditation. Pineal DMT may also play a significant role in dream consciousness.

Meditative techniques using sound, sight, or awareness may generate particular wave patterns whose fields induce resonance in the brain. Millennia of human trial and error have determined that certain ‘sacred’ worlds, visual images, and mental exercises exert uniquely desired effects, causing multiple systems to vibrate and pulse at certain frequencies. When our minds and bodies resonate with these spiritual exercises the pineal begins to ‘vibrate’ at frequencies that weaken its multiple barriers to DMT formation and release.

In the teachings of Gnosis we know that there are three types of mind.

The first is the sensual mind.

The second is the intermediate mind.

The third is the interior mind.

The first mind elaborates its concepts with its contents, by way of the data obtained with external sensorial perceptive senses. Therefore, it cannot know anything about ‘that’ which is the Reality.

The second mind is the deposit of religious beliefs.

The third mind functions only with the data of the awakened Consciousness.

Pistis Sophia knows by direct mystical experience. However, she is related only with the interior mind.

Real experience of ‘that’ which is the Truth is only possible with Pistis Sophia.

Nevertheless, the opening of the interior mind and the advent of Sophia is possible only by awakening the Consciousness.

Pistis Sophia is a living experience, manifested as the objective reasoning of the Being.

The Pineal Gland / Third Eye / Ajna Chakra

The pineal gland is a small endocrine gland in the brain. It is located near the center of the brain, between the two hemispheres, close to the emotional centers.

René Descartes, French philosopher, mathematician, and scientist. Dubbed the "Founder of Modern Philosophy" and the "Father of Modern Mathematics and Science," called it the seat of the soul.

It is associated with the sixth chakra, the Ajna chakra or third eye. It is believed by some to be a dormant organ that can be awakened to enable "telepathic" communication.

The Pineal Gland produces a chemical called DMT, N,N-dimethyltryptamine an extremely short-acting but very powerful psychedelic.

Dr Rick Strassman, who in his research gave sixty volunteers nearly 400 doses of DMT, speculated about endogenous DMT's role in dreams, meditation & spiritual experiences, birth, alien entity contact, near-death & death experiences in his book DMT: The Spirit Molecule.

The research by dr Rick Strassman showed it could very well be the entry and exit to this and other worlds, aswell as the collective unconscious.

In the wonderful documentary series Magical Egypt, John Anthony West explains that Rene Schwaller 's work shows ancient Egypt was already well aware of the chakra system aswell, as they built The Temple of Luxor based on it.

I already knew that the Tibetan Buddhist Book of the Dead teaches that it takes 49 days for the soul of the recently dead to "reincarnate." That is, seven weeks from the time of death of one person elapses until the life-force's "rebirth" into its next body. I remember very clearly, several years later, feeling the chill along my spine when, reading my textbook of human fetal development, I discovered this same forty-nineday interval marking two landmark events in human embryo formation. It takes forty-nine days from conception for the first signs of the human pineal to appear. Forty-nine days is also when the fetus differentiates into male or female gender. Thus the soul's rebirth, the pineal, and the sexual organs all require forty-nine days before they manifest.

Exodus3:8 And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey .

Go to your dictionary and look up the word galactose. You will see that it is brain sugar. In the word galactose you find the word galact, which means milk . You see in the word galactose the word, lactose which means milk sugar. It is the human brain, renewed mind, which is the land flowing with milk and honey. Lactose.

Pineal
Description: Mistress Gland (sofia)

I have always thought and been taught that the pineal is related to the 7th chakra not the 6th. The 6th is related to the Pituitary gland.

Just one example from Google…

Of course for a Spiritual being to have a human experience it must first embody, come to earth. We must be rooted first to truly blossom. True Spirituality is Embodiment. Back to the example of the toddler: In a sense the toddler reaching towards the earth was an illusion. She was in reality deeply grounded and was pushing away from the earth with so much ease (coming from perfect placement) that it gave the impression she was reaching down towards it. She was actually firmly rooted which is what gave her the freedom and trust to explore so fearlessly. The German poet Goethe said, in effect, 'I have seen all wonders, but the greatest among them is a tree, which delves deeply into the earth as it dances in the light and air of the Eternal.'

The Seventh Chakra, the Crown Chakra, also known as the 10th gate, Shashara, or Thousand Petaled Lotus, is located at the top of the head. It corresponds with the soft spot on a newborn's head (anterior fontanel). It is the energetic counterpart to the pineal gland, which begins to calcify and harden as we get caught up in the mundane. According to Yoga, the Crown Chakra closes at age 8 and we then spend the rest of our lives trying to reopen it. It is our connection to the Infinite. If the Chakra system were expressed as a pyramid, the Crown Chakra would be the quartz capstone.

The Crown Chakra relates to the Pineal Gland, which when balanced influences our life rhythms in a positive way. When the pineal gland is balanced the aging process is slowed and mood swings are less extreme. When activated, the Pineal is also said to stimulate certain dormant areas of the brain. These new neural connections expand our world vision and stimulate pathways related to sublime modes of perception. Of course there is a fine line between pure escapism and true transcendence and this is the great lesson of the Seventh Center. It needs the grounding influence of its polarity, the Earth element, to integrate our subtle aspects into the arena of the world.

This of course simply means that enlightenment comes from God or Zeus. The white horse of the heavens is Pegasus and the Book of Revelation tells us that Jesus will return on a white horse. Thus both Zeus and Jesus ride on Pegasus. And Pegasus the white horse is the hippocampus of the brain or the place of memory which allows us to understand the 2nd coming of Jesus as a renewal of the mind , a new consciousness.

Not only does the Bible say that Jesus returns on the white horse (which is Pegasus, the horse of Zeus) but it also quotes Jesus as saying that the return of the Son of Man would be as "lightening from east to west Enlightenment from the right hemisphere to the left.

Jesus and Zeus are one and the same, both creations of the Greek mind of mythology to bring us to an, understanding of ourselves and the cosmos in which we live.

In the center of the hippocampus of the brain is an organ called Ammons Horn. Another name for Ammon is Amen. In Revelation 3:14 Jesus is called the Amen. So indeed the Amen or Jesus rides the white horse by being attached to the hippocampus of the brain. The 2nd coming is a restoration of memory concerning who we are, where we come from and where we are going.

In modern times, Pegasus is seen as the symbol for the immortality of the soul, and as the carrier and protector that guards the spirit in its journeys into the astral plane. Pegasus is the power of the creative spirit in all of us. He is the symbol of the Muses, of inspiration, and of the beauty we bring to our life and the lives of others.

Luke hypothesizes that one of the four enzymes needed to convert the amino acid tryptophan (from the diet) into melatonin is being inhibited by fluoride. It could be one of the two enzymes that convert tryptophan to serotonin or one of the two that convert serotonin to melatonin.

Royal households stored their provisions in silver containers. Using silver eating utensils, having meals served on silver plates and drinks served in silver goblets. The skin of "blue bloods" reportedly had a bluish tinge, due to the minute traces of pure 'course' metallic silver they regularly consumed. In the early pioneering days, new settlers when traveling would put a silver coin in their milk to delay spoiling.

While Colloidal Gold does not have the same germicidal/anti-bacterial action of Colloidal Silver, Colloidal gold is thought to have powers as an anti-inflammatory and has been reported to be a glandular activator with life extension, raised brain function and I.Q. and Pineal enhancing possibilities, (see Frontier Perspectives Journal, Vol 7, No 2, Fall 1998).

Understanding Your Sacred Truths

Caroline Myss teaches that the strengths and fears associated with each of the seven chakras follow from either honoring, or not honoring, the sacred truth associated with each of the body's chakras, or energy centers. If the sacred truth is not honored, the likelihood of energy weakness, and possibly physical dysfunctions may increase.


Chakra Six - Seek Only the Truth
Essential energy of Chakra - Power of the Mind. Search continually for the difference between truth and illusion.

Fears
Introspection, realistic judgment of others, external counsel, discipline, one's shadow side (what we would hide from the world).
Strengths
Intellect; ability to evaluate conscious and unconscious insights, receive inspiration, generate acts of creativity and intuitive reasoning.
Physical Dysfunctions
Brain tumor, stroke, neurological disturbances, blindness, deafness, full spinal difficulties, learning disabilities, seizures.

Chakra Seven - Live in the Present Moment
Essential energy of Chakra - Our Spiritual Nature. Seek an intimate connection to the Divine in everything we do.

Fears
Spiritual abandonment, loss of identify and connection with life and people around us.
Strengths
Faith in the presence of the Divine and in all that that faith represents in one's life - inner guidance, insight into healing, devotion.
Physical Dysfunctions
Paralysis, bone cancer, genetic disorders, multiple sclerosis.

Origination of Religious Archetypes

Joseph Campbell (1987) believes that the Shaman and the Priest grew out of two different tribal backgrounds. The Shaman developed in the hunter tribe, and the Priest developed in the agrarian tribe. The Shaman would fast for visions and out-of-body experiences so that he could make excursions to locate the animal herd for the hunt.

Shamans were probably the first members of the tribe to seek higher states of consciousness as a way to help the tribe survive and prosper. They transmitted their wisdom to a chosen member of the tribe who showed ability for altered states of consciousness.

The Priest, by comparison, was anointed or ordained by the tribe, and thus socially inducted into his position. He held a role in a religious organization that had its own rules. Thus, Shamans gained their power by their abilities, and Priests gained their power by social standing.

Comparing the seven steps in the tabernacle with the seven Chakras can sum up the essence of Janet Bowden’s lecture (See dia. on p. 5).

1. The first step in the tabernacle is the gate to the Court Round About. This is man that is spiritually dead which is the earth state of man (Rom. 8:6). Now this corresponds to the root chakra where self-preservation rules the beastly man.

2. The second step in the tabernacle is the brazen altar of sin sacrifice, which represents the death of the old belief system. This corresponds to man’s need to be reborn (John 3:1-5). This corresponds with the Chakra that governs reproduction.

3. The third step corresponds to the brazen laver where the priests washed the sacrifices and themselves. This represents the washing of regeneration of the soul and the mind (John 7:38-39; Titus 3:5). Now the third Chakra is called the solar plexus and is associated with emotion.

4. The fourth step in the tabernacle is the first veil that divides the Court Round About from the Holy Place. It also represents the division between the body and soul. The fourth Chakra is called the heart Chakra and many believed that when it is activated, this is the beginning of the spiritual operation that ends one’s spiritual darkness.

5. The fifth step in the tabernacle is the Holy Place compartment, with its light, bread, and an intercessor. This compartment corresponds to the soul or the Wilderness of Sinai in Israel’s journey to the Promise Land. The Messiah told His disciples that when they see the abomination and desolation, stand in the HOLY PLACE (Matt. 24:15). It represents the resurrected state of the soul. The fifth Chakra is the throat. It is correlated with creativity and the search for the truth. It is also the end of the earthly man.

6. The sixth step in the tabernacle is the second vail that divides the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place. In Israel’s migration trek, the River Jordan divides the Wilderness from the Promised Land. It is also the division between soul and Spirit. This veil often corresponds with the renting or removal of the physical body so that the soul can enter the spirit realm. This sixth Chakra is the called the Brow Chakra. The Chakras correspond with intuition, divine intelligence, and psychic powers.

7. The seventh step in the tabernacle corresponds with Most Holy Place and the promise land in Israel’s migration—their final destination. This is where the soul and Spirit are one. The seventh Chakra is called the crown Chakra. It brings supreme and cosmic consciousness. +

Mistress Gland (sofia)

In the Indian Tantric system, the Middle of the Forehead Chakra is called the Indu or Chandra ("Moon") chakra; its sixteen are described as corresponding to various spiritual states of consciousness such as mercy, gentleness, patience, non-attachment, etc. [Goswami, p.282].

The forehead chakra is associated with the hypothalamus gland, which is the central processing unit for the whole hormone system. Taoists regard it as the main switch for the Universal Force and place of the awakened Spirit [Chia, p.220]. It represents the yin or negative polarity, in relation to the pineal gland that provides the yang or positive polarity; together these provide the balancing force for higher consciousness [Ibid]

According to the Christian esotericist Ann Ree Colton, his centre is called the "Indestructible Atom", located in the middle of the forehead, and the seat of the "Christ Consciousness" and the Buddhi centre.

http://www.kheper.net/topics/chakras/Forehead.htm

This complete brain processing is all about 3 parts. You have the left side and right side divided. The third part is the Pineal Gland accepting energy and it's fed into the Fornix, an arch or vault-like structure of white fibers circling the thalamus that carries signals from the hippocampus [memory or ram] to the mammillary bodies and septal nuclei.


Exodus 26:33 And thou shall hang up the vail under the taches, that thou may bring in thither within the vail the ark [arch] of the testimony, and the vail shall divide unto you the holy place and the most holy.
1 Kings 6:27 And he set the cherubims within the inner house: and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touch the other wall: and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house. [in your head]
Exodus 25:20 And the cherubim shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look to one another: toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubim’s be.

The Pineal Gland secretes many mystical anti-aging secretions that preserves life. This is why the Biblical Jacob saw God face to face on the island of Pe-ni-el and his life was preserved (Genesis 32:30).

The Pineal Gland also secretes the hormone melatonin. Melatonin is anti-aging in effect. It is also anti-oxidant in nature. It is mainly produced and secreted at night between the hours of 12 and 4 A.M. This is why sleeping is so vitally important. Sleeping is a healing and rejuvenating act. People who work at night are said to be working the graveyard shift, because working at night (a time when the body naturally heals and regenerates itself) deadens and degenerates the body, causing premature aging and sends one to an early grave. Remember Wes Craven’s horror film Graveyard Shift? The monster (degeneration) only killed people who worked at night. Black people in a healthy state (sound mind and body) produce an extraordinary amount of melatonin and other pineal secretions.

The Pineal Gland also secretes melanin, which is responsible for dark skin pigmentation. This is why black skin is so naturally beautiful and radiant (until we start eating, living, and thinking unnatural).

Do you know why Cinderella had to leave the Ball before midnight and be home before the clock struck twelve o’clock? Her garment (body) would have become raggedy (degenerate). Melatonin is produced and secreted in abundance around 12 midnight. Cinderella’s new coach (body, vehicle) was also warned of turning back into a pumpkin (vegetable a.k.a. deadened state) when the clock (the body’s internal clock that regulates bio-circadian rhythms) struck twelve o’clock.

Eating the deficient Western diet of high consumption of meat (dead and slaughtered animal flesh or carcass), dairy (liquid meat, cow snot), refined grains (Elmer’s glue, in which the gluten in these grains breaks down into), starches (stiffening agent used by dry cleaners to make your clothes stiff), sugar (the white fetish), salt (crude oil extract), soda pop (bone and enamel depleter), beer (recreational embalming fluid), coffee (nervous system stimulant and drug), etc., creates excessive caustic acids (uric, carbonic, and lactic) that corrodes and excoriates the Pineal Gland tissue and inevitably results in calcification of the Pineal Gland.

Alkalinity (alkaline foods) neutralizes Pineal Gland calcification and allows Christ (consciousness) to roll back the Stone (calcification) from the mouth of the Cave (Pineal Gland) allowing Lazarus (inner consciousness, spirituality) to rise from the Dead (unconscious state). Carbon (activated charcoal) is very alkalizing and spinning with electrons! It can be ingested every other day. There are no side effects. It can prevent death due to overdose of any chemical drug. Seaweeds (blue-green algae, spirulina, chlorella, Irish Moss, Iceland Moss, Kelp, Dulse, etc.) are also very alkalizing, as well as Alfalfa and Wheat grass. The herbs Uva Ursi, Mullein, and Devil’s Claw greatly de-acidify the body and loosen and expel hardened mucus around the Pineal Gland.

The essential oil Sandalwood also facilitates Pineal Gland opening and functioning, facilitating spiritual wisdom, knowledge and understanding. This is why the Biblical Solomon (Sol=Sun, O=of, Mon=Man) had his temple made out of sandalwood.

The molecule DMT (N,N-Dimethyltryptamine) is a psychoactive chemical that causes intense visions and can induce its users to quickly enter a completely different "environment" that some have likened to an alien or parallel universe. The transition from our world to theirs occurs with no cessation of consciousness or quality of awareness. In this environment, beings often appear who interact with the person who is using DMT. The beings appear to inhabit this parallel realm. The DMT experience has the feel of reality in terms of detail and potential for exploration. The creatures encountered are often identified as being alien like or elflike. Some of the creatures appear to be three-dimensional. Others appear to lack depth.

Author Terence McKenna has used DMT and feels that, "Right here and now, one quanta away, there is raging a universe of active intelligence that is trans-human, hyper-dimensional, and extremely alien... What is driving religious feeling today is a wish for contact with this other universe." The aliens seen while using DMT present themselves "with information that is not drawn from the personal history of the individual."

DMT is also naturally produced in small quantities in the human brain, and it has been hypothesized that DMT is produced in the pineal gland in the brain. The pineal gland appears in the developing human fetus around 49 days after conception.

When I asked Rick Strassman, M.D., author of DMT: The Spirit Molecule, about my theory, he responded: I'm not familiar with a specific theory that we made more DMT in the old days than now. But, are you familiar with Jaynes' idea of the bicameral mind--that people routinely hallucinated until the connections between our hemispheres got evolved out for whatever reason? I don't think hemispheric connections would support his idea as much as might higher levels of endogenous DMT. If indeed we made more DMT in the past, this may have to do with the increase in artificial light that has come upon us in the last 1000 years or so.

The pineal gland secretes melanin during times of relaxation and visualization. As we are created by electromagnetic energy - and react to EM energy stimuli around us - so does the pineal gland.

When activated, the pineal gland becomes the line of communication with the higher planes. The crown chakra reaches down until its vortex touches the pineal gland. Prana, or pure energy, is received through this energy center in the head. With Practice the vibration level of the astral body is raised, allowing it to separate from the physical.

To activate the 'third eye' and perceive higher dimensions, the pineal gland and the pituitary body must vibrate in unison, which is achieved through meditation and/or relaxation. When a correct relationship is established between personality, operating through the pituitary body, and the soul, operating through the pineal gland, a magnetic field is created. The negative and positive forces interact and become strong enough to create the 'light in the head.' With this 'light in the head' activated, astral projectors can withdraw themselves from the body, carrying the light with them.

Astral travel and other occult abilities are closely associated with the development of the 'light in the head.' After physical relaxation, concentration upon the pineal gland is achieved by staring at a point in the middle of the forehead. Without straining the muscles of the eye, this will activate the pineal gland and the 'third eye.' Beginning with the withdrawal of the senses and the physical consciousness, the consciousness is centered in the region of the pineal gland. The perceptive faculty and the point of realization are centralized in the area between the middle of the forehead and the pineal gland. The trick is to visualize, very intently, the subtle body escaping through the trap door of the brain. A popping sound may occur at the time separation of the astral body in the area of the pineal gland.

Visualization exercises are the first step in directing the energies in our inner systems to activate the 'third eye'. The magnetic field is created around the pineal gland, by focusing the mind on the midway point between the pineal gland and the pituitary body. The creative imagination visualizes something, and the thought energy of the mind gives life and direction to this form.

As the brain enters deeper states, our consciousness is less concerned with the physical state, our 'third eye' is active, and separation becomes natural. Many native traditions and mystical practices refer to the ability of 'seeing,' or being aware of energy fields at higher levels.

Melatonin is called the ’hormone of darkness’ as it is produced only at night or in the dark. Exposure to an excess of sunlight actually makes the pineal gland smaller and lessens spiritual awareness, the Christian Church eventually demolished the true significance of the Star Fire ritual by maneuvering it into the realm of sinister Gothic legend. In the old tradition, the ultimate holders of the Malkhut were known as Dragons or Pendragons, and the reigning head was always known as Draco.... they were in fact Princes of Darkness;

Melatonin enhances and boosts the body’s immune system, and those with high pineal secretion are less likely to develop cancerous diseases. High melatonin production heightens energy, stamina and physical tolerance levels and it is directly related to sleep patterns, keeping the body temperately regulated with properties that operate through the cardiovascular system. It is, in fact, the body’s most potent and effective antioxidant and it has positive mental and physical anti-ageing properties. It is manufactured by the pineal gland through the activation of a chemical messenger called serotonin. This transmits nerve impulses across chromosome pairs at a point when the cell nuclei are divided and the chromosomes are halved (a process called meiosis), eventually to be combined with other half-sets upon fertilization.

Pine resin was long identified with pineal secretion and was used to make frankincense (the incense of priesthood). Gold, on the other hand, was a traditional symbol of kingship. Hence, gold and frankincense were the traditional substances of the Priest-Kings of the Messianic Bloodline, along with myrrh (a gum resin used as a medical sedative) that was symbolic of death.

In the ancient world, higher knowledge was identified as daäth (from which comes our word, ’death’). In fact, as we know very well, the New Testament describes that these three substances (gold, frankincense and myrrh) were presented to Jesus by the Magi, thereby identifying him beyond doubt as a hereditary Priest-King of the Dragon succession.

But to pineal graduates there is no time to calculate, for they live in a dimension where time and space are of no consequence.

To connect fully to Christ Consciousness requires that one unplug from the ancient mind of humanity or the false matrix, as anchored by thoughts of fear, keeping us feeling separate, alone, hurt, scared, ashamed, unworthy, or incapable.

Once unplugged from the false matrix grids, supported and created by the Aeons, then one can become more attuned with the Christ Consciousness Grids through the altamajor chakra.

When we leave this ancient mind we become plugged into the Christ Consciousness Grids through the Altamajor chakra at the back of the neck. The Alta Major is the focal point of the human structure in connection with the heart and pineal gland. It holds our connection to the stellated Dodecahedron of the Christ Grid; the integrated unity of Unconditional Love.

As the Alta Major connects to the pineal gland, one starts to see and manifest the divine plan as part of oneself. As the Alta Major connects to the pituitary, you develop the gifts of vision, and clairvoyance. One disengages with inertia, veils or incongruities that hamper us from being fully present. We manifest the divine plan. This power of manifestation is a gift of Grace. When the Intelligence of the Creator is satisfied with that which has been created, then the power of manifestation can be given and anchored through the Alta Major.

Essential oils and incense of Frankincense and Myrrh also help to stimulate the Pineal Gland. This is why the baby Christ in Matthew 2:11 was given Frankincense and Myrrh as a gift. This is symbolic of the Christ Consciousness, also known as the Third Eye (Pineal Gland). Frankincense and Myrrh are considered gifts to the baby Christ (denoting Christ Consciousness) because these resins stimulate the Pineal Gland and activate our Christ Consciousness.

Gold (as well as Pyrite Gold or Fool's Gold) also stimulates the Pineal Gland and can be used over it just like magnets. Gold was also given to the baby Christ in Matthew 2:11 along with Frankincense and Myrrh.

Pine resin was long identified with pineal secretion and was used to make frankincense (the incense of priesthood). Gold, on the other hand, was a traditional symbol of kingship. Hence, gold and frankincense were the traditional substances of the Priest-Kings of the Messianic Bloodline, along with myrrh (a gum resin used as a medical sedative) that was symbolic of death.

In the ancient world, higher knowledge was identified as daäth (from which comes our word, 'death'). In fact, as we know very well, the New Testament describes that these three substances (gold, frankincense and myrrh) were presented to Jesus by the Magi, thereby identifying him beyond doubt as a hereditary Priest-King of the Dragon succession.

Myrrh (Commiphora myrrha): Powerful antioxidant, antitumoral, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antiparasitic, analgesic / anesthetic. Uses: Diabetes, cancer, hepatitis, fungal infections, tooth / gum infections, mouth ulcers, skin conditions (chapped, cracked, wrinkles, stretch marks). Can help abnormal vaginal discharge. Promotes spiritual awareness and is uplifting. Stimulates the limbic system of the brain (the centre of memory and emotions), and the hypothalamus, pineal, and pituitary glands. The hypothalamus is the master gland of the human body, producing many vital hormones including thyroid and growth hormone.

Frankincense (Boswellia carteri): Antitumoral, immunostimulant, antidepressant, muscle relaxing. Uses: Depression, cancer, respiratory infections, inflammation, immune stimulating. Increases spiritual awareness, promotes meditation, improves attitude and uplifts spirits. Releases the Pituitory gland, and opens the Pineal gland. Deregulates the overstimulation of the adrenal gland, decreasing levels of noradrenaline, dopamine, and cortisol (stress reduction).

Science has come to some definitive conclusions on what certain portions of the brain are used for, i.e. the occipital lobes, temporal lobes, frontal lobes, etc. Yet, there are vast areas of the brain that are still a mystery to science, i.e. the pineal gland, the full potential of the pituitary gland, and portions of the midbrain limbic system to name a few. Thus to evaluate how much of our brains’ capacity we are using when we are still unclear as to what vast areas are capable of is purely speculative.

One example of mapping brain usage compared to the norm was done in studying Einstein´s brain. The one definitive difference they found in his brain compared to the norm was that he had an unusually high number of glial cells in his parietal lobe. Glial cells are the supporting architecture for neurons. High counts of glial cells could indicate that he was using this portion of brain cognitively and extensively. The parietal lobe is thought to facilitate abstract thought. We do know that whenever anything is learned there are new dendrite connections made between neurons. Greater usage of the brain through learning and stimulation creates greater dendrite connectivity. Einstein´s brain indicated extensive dendrite connectivity.

Where does this lead, it can only lead to us accepting that we have not all the answers to that which we seek, so we should open ourselves up to seeing each moment in the context of newness and looking at the beauty of each thing and appreciation of the divine creation. Do not claim to have all the answers as I see that our minds, the universe, and religion all leads us to more questions. Questions lead to progress as we search and venture forth with positive intent for betterment, it is in beauty that I see God, all the time, in each instant, surrounding and cradling us, loving us, embrace the truth of divinity, the infinite and the natural, for that is our state infinium.

The pineal is the acorn to the oak tree of heavenly inspiration, creativity, intelligence of Gods’ universe, and His permeating pervasive love.

Tryptophan is available for veterinary purposes.
5 HTP can also help. As can melatonin.

Flouride accumulates in the pineal, and messes with the crystal structure of the calcium there, as well as increasing calcification.

Flouride, the battle of darkness and light:

The pineal gland, located at the epithalamus of the brain, secretes the vital hormone melatonin. It is the body´s chief photoreceptor -- a receiver of photons from the eyes, and thus protects the body from light deficiency.

Calcification of the pineal glad occurs in a large percentage of people over 60 years of age. It is not a natural part of the aging process because it doesn´t happen in everyone, but it is very common. "If a method could be devised," says the author, "to decalcify the pineal gland, I believe wondrous health benefits would ensue." Some of the benefits of chelation therapy using EDTA and/or UV therapy may be due to decalcification of the pineal gland.

It has been our experience that all organ function and glandular function improves as a result of EDTA chelation therapy, but I never considered its beneficial effect on the pineal gland before, I just assumed it should be enhanced as are all other tissues.

One meditative practice that claims to have a more physiological benefit is known as tratak. This is the practice of staring at a flame.

The flame is prepared by placing a cotton wick in a small lamp of ghee (clarified butter), or vegetable oil. The lamp is lit and placed approximately eleven inches before the seated practitioner at eye level.

The practitioner stares at the flame with both eyes wide open and unblinking until tears come to both eyes. At this point the eyes are closed and focused upwards between the eyebrows, and concentrating on the after image of the flame until it disappears. The flame is not looked at again for at least 20 minutes.

Theoretically this practice works toward the decalcification of the pineal gland, considered by some to be the master gland of the body. The pineal gland ossifies around the age of puberty to 16 years of age, after which many modern cientists and biologists consider it a secondary gland. However in yoga science, this gland is said to rule all the others and that it is also related to the awakening of very high spiritual understanding in the individual. Since it is considered to be sensitive to light, the practice of flame watching acts to decalcify the pineal, allowing it to function properly for both its material and more subtle purposes.

http://www.thenanotechnologygroup.org/id71.htm

"Through multiple studies over the last eight plus years, researchers worldwide have shown that Nanobacteria are the cause of pathological calcification in humans and other mammals. Pathological calcification is involved in coronary artery disease, atherosclerosis, kidney stones, polycystic kidney disease (PKD), prostatitis, liver and kidney cysts, peripheral vascular disease, micro-vascular disease, diabetes, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, calcific tendenitis, bursitis, autoimmune disorders, endocrine dysfunction, cataracts, scleroderma, pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), eczema, psoriasis, lichen planus, cancer, soft tissue and muscle calcification, Alzheimer’s, brain sand, pineal calcification and others. We are also investigating the involvement of Cardiac-specific C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Collagenase, destructive Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMP) and Myleoperoxidase (MPO) in these disorders and how our core technologies inhibit their pathological activity. Many of these diseases cause death while others just make our lives miserable. "

"As the post-modern elixir of life extension are presently the hormone precursors of DHEA (DiHydroEpiAndroSterone) and Pregnelenone, which may extend human life span to 120 years if kept at a conciurrent level, it becomes significant a fact that both Pinoline and related beta carbolines are not only produced in the brain, but in the adrenal glands themselves, where these hormones undergo their transformation to the hormones of life.

It was demonstrated by the ‘HeartMath Institute’ in Boulder Creek, Colorado, that minutes of compassion in the cardio-rhythm, which induces 8 Hz in the brain, brought DHEA levels up to youthful levels. In other words 20 minutes of compassionate love, through meditative breathing, and whole body 8 Hz Phase Conjugation (Vortexijah Technique), is the ultimate hormone precursor anti-aging pill.

Not only does the pineal gland produce more Melatonin and Pinoline, which instigate 8 Hz ELF waves throughout the body, but these neuro-hormones switch on our pituitary glands, which thus releases the life hormone Somatropin, which in turn goes to the adrenal glands and instigates cholesterol to convert to Pregnelenone, and Pregnelenone into DHEA.

For Pinoline and its related beta carbolines to have also been found in significant quantities there, is no small finding, since Pinoline instigates cell division, and actually has the ability to loose its electrical resistance, when it binds to DNA, due to its flat nature, where it shares electrons with the DNA base pairs.

Hereby, resonating with the in-vivo superconducting core of DNA, first pointing to in the March 1965, issue of the Scientific American, pp-27. It is at such a moment of superconductivity, that the superior 8 Hz is instigated, and that bio photons of infrared emerge from the DNA core, having fluctuated from the vacuum. Or in other words, having been made from nothing.

We eat foods to extract the infrared they have photosynthesized or assimilated from the sun. Infra red is life to us, and at this level, the bio-photons switch on our life functions.

Hence Pinoline actually can make the superconductive elements within our body, the mono-atomic minerals, useful to our biology, by acting as a biological door, or bio-crystal bridge, which can momentarily super conduct, and transmit that high spin state that it anticipates, into biological availability, as 8 Hz, and bio-photons of life.

Here we find Pinoline sitting right at the place where the post-modern elixir of life is produced, as it resonates to 8 Hz, the question that must be investigated, how significant and essential a role, does Pinoline play in the adrenalagenic system, in the metabolism for the living crystals of live, our hormones and neuradrenaline.

Furthermore, nore-adrenaline plays a significant role in the Pineal gland, when there is sufficient Pinoline saturation in the brain. It releases a serotonin sight, to enable another serotonin site on the pineal gland to produce the all powerful, and outmost visionary Dimethyltryhptamine, neurotransmitter, the most potent transmitter and well known transmitter to the inter nervous system (it is so well known to the brain that it is metabolized within 30 seconds, unlike any other transmitter). This molecule, dubbed by Dr. Strassman as the "Spirit Molecule", was detected by Dr. James Callaway in the spinal serum of people who were dying, or were having an "Out of body experience (OOBE)", or who were lucid dreaming. It is Pinoline that enables the threshold levels of DMT to become active in the brain, but it requires an adrenaline burst.

Perhaps Pinoline position in the adrenals is also related to this bio-function, which has been almost all but obscure to western science so far, but appears to be opening a door, to higher brain cortical functioning. DMT with Pinoline increases brain activation, and with its cousin the 5-Methoxy-DMT, has been shown to activate the brain by as much as 40%, compared to our 10% maximum potential at present. The higher brain states are quite intense, and frightening or live changing to most. It is as if we are in a baby brain state, and are about to come to terms with the genuine adult brain. A function that we once used consciously, rather than unconsciously in our dreams and lucid dreams, and visionary bursts."

It should be possible to "train" the brain to access these alternate states using Neurofeedback (perhaps Duncan went through one of these trainings). I have an 1987 paper (Research in Parapsychology) on "Event Related Brain Potentials and a Phenomenological Model of Psi-Conductive Sttates ". The file is 4Mb so I can't upload it here....

When the pineal gland is stimulated geo-magnetically it produces alkaloids similar to plant psychedelics.

I didn't know about that. Do you have detailed information or references to scientific articles on it ?

I cannot retrieve the recent opinion of Dr. Strassman on the origin of DMT in the brain on Graham Hancock's forum but I think he was cautious about DMT produced by the pineal gland (like "It still is an hypothesis not scientifically demonstrated").
Consult Hancock's forum if you want to try to find it.

I will be covering this later in the meditation program. The pineal gland is the psychic seat of the soul and to reach true enlightenment this needs to activated as most peoples are not. This is due to the rubbish they put in food and drink. The illumanati plan runs deep. I will be cover this and how to activate the blood back to it in the program.

Interesting topic though glad itwas brought up

Holy Moses, folks!

I would just like to add a source of expansion to this subject:

"The Biology of Transcendence" by Joseph Chilton Pearce. Pearce was a major anthroposophist and this contribution is really enlightened.

It's about the physiological changes and neural development associated with the growth stages of the human being, primarily, and how with adequet spiritual practice, we can make up for what was missing in those important childhood marking points.

Makani wrote in the first post:

"As the earth has the greatest effect of any force on our physiology it makes sense that the cells of our body and brain align with it. All life within the envelope of earth's vibrational influence attempts to match base-frequencies."

I would add, per my reading of "transcendence", that the heart, according to Pearce, is actually the greatest torsion field generator in the human being. The heart is the seat of the "soul", which encompasses our subconscious beliefs structures. So, ascendence, and spiritual awakening through our free will choice to take responsibility for our subconscious beliefs, TRANSFORMS those beliefs, thus raising the vibration of our heart torsion field, thus CREATING the affective experiences detailed (amazingly) above.

In other words, the goal could be to be the SOURCE of the phenomenon above by CHOOSING love and forgiveness. That would be the most organic method of creating those states, oui?

Thank you SO much for this information, Makani! Very awesome!

I am not familiar with the roshi, I am using a Mitsar (QEEG) and a brainmaster Atlantis 4 chann for the feedback...
There are several articles on QEEG meditation and books by Anna Wise and others. Do you train specific sites (ex Alpha at PZ) and target specific frequencies or ratios?
The paper on Psi states was sometimes involving very high frequencies (70Hz or even higher)

just remember, the gadgets and measurable phenomenon are just that; they are not a measure of the state of the BEING through free will choice to CHOOSE to awaken.....

Yes but I believe that they may help and accelerate the process (Monroe was using them to train the brain to induce states that monks were achieving only after 20 years of training)

Wow, this is great information. The pineal gland represents the third eye, and it secretes melatonin which regulates the sleep cycle. I'd love to see a similar analysis of the amygdala, the seat of the limbic system (the "reptile brain").

[Carol]

What struck me was how fluoride accumulates in the brain and calcifies it. Yet a form of meditation, focusing on the burning candle flame and maintaining that image in one's inner third eye, helps correct this problem.

[jan]

Correct me if i'm wrong but fluor does not cause the calcification of the pineal gland. The fluor causes the fluorosis of the brain sands (calcium hydroxyapatite) which are turned into fluorapatite (a bad thing for the pineal gland according to Luke 1994).

Calcification seems to be a "normal" aging process or t least not caused by fluor.
