Seat of gods
This pineal gland is activated by Light, and it
controls the various bio-rhythms of the body. It
works in harmony with the hypothalamus gland
which directs the body's thirst, hunger, sexual
desire and the biological clock that determines
our aging process. When it awakens, one feels a
pressure at the base of the brain.
While the physiological function of the pineal
gland has been unknown until recent times,
mystical traditions and esoteric schools have
long known this area in the middle of the brain
to be the connecting link between the physical
and spiritual worlds. Considered the most
powerful and highest source of ethereal energy
available to humans, the pineal gland has always
been important in initiating supernatural
powers. Development of psychic talents has been
closely associated with this organ of higher
vision.
To activate the 'third eye' is to raise one's
frequency and moving into higher consciousness -
all is a consciousness experience perceived
through the Eye of Time or Third Eye.
Meditation, Visualization Yoga, and all forms of
Out of Body travel, open the Third Eye and allow
you to 'see' beyond the physical. As you
practice, you will get it faster and more
frequently. Your psychic abilities will increase
as well as your dream time messages. You may
first begin with your eyes closed, but as you
practice, you will be able to open your third
eye by focusing your attention and receiving
messages with your physical eyes open. Planetary
vibration/frequency is accelerating
exponentially, allowing souls to peer into other
realms far more easily than in the past.
Frequency will continue to rise until
consciousness evolves out of the physical in the
next few years.
Many native traditions and mystical practices,
refer to the ability of 'seeing,'
or being aware of energy fields, at higher
levels. This abstract awareness, is
much more subjective and does not involve the
normal level of mundane consciousness, which is
mostly concerned with self - identity. This
'seeing' refers
to the sight of the 'third eye'.
Consciousness is raised, from an emotional
nature, into an illumined
Awareness, when the pineal gland is lifted from
dormancy. If the pineal
gland is not yet fully developed, it will be in
the course of evolution. When
our sense of ego and personality are set aside
and we keep our mental energy
intact, we can become "conscious" of the
non-physical, our inner self, the
subconscious, through different practices to
activate the 'light in the head.' |

OCCULT TREASURES
Pineal Secrets |
Pineal Secrets:
Pineal gland is the true master gland. It is situated between the eyes. It is the organ of clairvoyance, Third eye, the eye of Ra or Heru (God). Biblical Jacob saw God face to face on the island of Pe-ni-el. Its secretes melatonin which is anti ageing in effect and anti oxidant in nature. This also secretes melanin which colours
our skin.
The pineal gland, the most enigmatic of endocrine
organs, has long been of interest to anatomists. Several
millennia ago it was thought to be a valve that
controlled the flow of memories into consciousness. René
Descartes, the 17th-century French
philosopher-mathematician, concluded that the pineal was
the seat of the soul. A corollary notion was that
calcification of the pineal caused psychiatric disease,
a concept that provided support for those who considered
psychotic behavior to be rampant; modern examination
techniques have revealed that all pineal glands become
more or less calcified.
The pineal organ is small, weighing little more than 0.1
gram. It lies deep within the brain between the two
cerebral hemispheres and above the third ventricle of
the spinal column. It has a rich supply of adrenergic
nerve fibers that greatly influence its secretions.
Microscopically, the gland is composed of pinealocytes
(rather typical endocrine cells except for extensions
that mingle with those of adjacent cells). Supporting
cells that are similar to astrocytes of the brain are
interspersed.
The pineal gland contains a number of peptides,
including GnRH, TRH, and vasotocin, along with a number
of important neurotransmitters such as somatostatin,
norepinephrine, serotonin, and histamine. The major
pineal hormone, however, is melatonin, a derivative of
the amino acid tryptophan. Melatonin was first
discovered because it lightens amphibian skin, an effect
opposite to that of melanocyte-stimulating hormone of
the anterior pituitary. Secretion of melatonin is
enhanced whenever the sympathetic nervous system is
stimulated. Of greater interest, however, is the fact
that secretion increases soon after an animal is placed
in the dark; the opposite effect takes place immediately
upon exposure to light. Its major action, well
documented in animals, is to block the secretion of GnRH
by the hypothalamus and of gonadotropins by the
pituitary. While it was long thought that a decrease in
melatonin secretion heralded the onset of puberty, this
hypothesis cannot be supported by studies in humans. It
is possible that the pineal contains an as yet
unidentified hormone that serves that function.
Melotonin is the only hormone secreted by the pineal
gland. (The pineal gland is a tiny endocrine gland
situated at the centre of the brain.) Melatonin was
discovered in 1958 by Aaron B. Lerner and other
researchers working at Yale University. Melatonin is
produced in humans, other mammals, birds, reptiles, and
amphibians. It is present in very small amounts in the
human body.
Melatonin was previously known to cause the skins of
amphibians to blanch, but its functions in mammals
remained uncertain until research discoveries in the
1970s and '80s suggested that it regulates both sleeping
cycles and the hormonal changes that usher in sexual
maturity during adolescence. The pineal gland's
production of melatonin varies both with the time of day
and with age; production of melatonin is dramatically
increased during the nighttime hours and falls off
during the day, and melatonin levels are much higher in
children under age seven than in adolescents and are
lower still in adults. Melatonin apparently acts to keep
a child's body from undergoing sexual maturation, since
sex hormones such as luteotropin, which play a role in
the development of sexual organs, emerge only after
melatonin levels have declined. This hypothesis is
supported by the fact that children with tumors of the
pineal gland often reach sexual maturity unusually early
in life, presumably because the pineal's production of
melatonin has been hampered. Melatonin also seems to
play an important role in regulating sleeping cycles;
test subjects injected with the hormone become sleepy,
suggesting that the increased production of melatonin
coincident with nightfall acts as a fundamental
mechanism for making people sleepy. With dawn the pineal
gland stops producing melatonin, and wakefulness and
alertness ensue. The high level of melatonin production
in young children may explain their tendency to sleep
longer than adults.
In mammals other than humans melatonin possibly acts as
a breeding and mating cue, since it is produced in
greater amounts in response to the longer nights of
winter and less so during summer. Animals who time their
mating or breeding to coincide with favorable seasons
(such as spring) may depend on melatonin production as a
kind of biological clock that regulates their
reproductive cycles on the basis of the length of the
solar day.
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.
'Third eye' development, imagination, and visualization
are important
ingredients, in many methods to separate from the
physical form. Intuition
is also achieved, through 'third eye' development.
Knowledge and memory of
the astral plane, are not registered in full waking
consciousness, until the
intuition becomes strong enough. Flashes of intuition
come, with increasing
consistency, as the 'third eye' is activated to a
greater degree, through practice. Universal Knowledge...
can also be acquired.
The pineal gland, corresponds with divine thought, after
being touched by
the vibrating light of Kundalini. Kundalini starts its
ascent, towards the head
center, after responding to the vibrations from the
'light in the head.'
The light is located at the top of the sutratma, or
'soul thread', which passes
down from the highest plane of our being... into the
physical vehicle.
The 'third eye,' or 'Eye of Siva,' the organ of
spiritual vision, is intimately
related to karma, as we become more spiritual in the
natural course of
evolution.
As human beings continue to evolve, further out of
matter, on the journey
from spirit to matter... back to spirit, the pineal
gland will continue to rise
from its state of age - long dormancy, bringing back to
humanity... astral
capacities and spiritual abilities.
At certain brain wave frequencies, a sense of "ego
boundary" vanishes. In the
"theta" state, we are resting deeply and still
conscious, at the threshold of
drifting away from or back into conscious awareness. As
the brain enters
deeper states, our consciousness is less concerned with
the physical state, our
'third eye' is active, and separation becomes natural.

Research
Retinal research, done with hamsters,
demonstrates another center for melatonin
production. Located in the retina, this center
implies... that the eyes, have their
own built in circadian timepiece. This retinal
system, is distinct from the brain’s
body clock, in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN).
Biologists found, that they could
throw the retinal rhythms... out of sync, with
other circadian cycles. They also
found, that they could set and reset the retinal
clock, even when the SCN was
destroyed.
The retinal clock, produces (stimulates the
production of?) melatonin.
Researchers are now looking for the exact
location (s) of this clock, in the
human eye, (and expect to find it). No one yet
knows, what the separate
clock is for, or how it relates to the SCN.
In some lower vertebrates, the Epiphysis Cerebri
- Pineal Gland, has a
well developed eye - like structure; in others,
though not organized as an eye,
it functions as a light receptor. In lower
vertebrates, the pineal gland has an
eye like structure and it functions as a light
receptor and also is considered
by some, to be the evolutionary forerunner of
the modern eye.
The gland weighs little more than 0.1 gram. The
gland is large in children
and begins to shrink, with the onset of puberty.
It appears to play a major role in sexual
development, hibernation in animals, metabolism,
and seasonal breeding. In humans, it affects
circadian rhythms,
sleep patterns (melatonin levels increase at
night) and is implicated in seasonal affective
disorder. The abundant melatonin level in
children, is believed to
inhibit sexual development. When puberty
arrives, melatonin production is reduced. The
pineal gland secretes melatonin, 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. |
