Loloma my Kolas- ("Greetings/Hello my Friends" in Native Indian Tongue) So I'm quite sure its been posted many times over here on Avalon regarding The 3rd Eye/Ajna/Pineal Gland/Spirit Gland etc. I came across some cool stuff about The 3rd Eye and thought to share with you peeps. A very good read IMO. Please add to this thread if you have any knowledge on this topic regarding activating/decalcifying/aiding this most sacred gland. ;)

The Pineal Gland was the last endocrine gland to have its function
discovered. Its location deep in the brain seemed to indicate its
importance. This combination led to its being a "mystery" gland with
myth, superstition and even metaphysical theories surrounding its
perceived function.

The pineal gland is occasionally associated with the sixth chakra
(also called Ajna or the third eye chakra in yoga). It is believed by
some to be a dormant organ that can be awakened to enable
"telepathic" communication.

In the physical body the eye views objects upside down. It sends the
image of what it observes to the brain which interprets the image and
makes it appear right side-up to us.

But the human body has another physical eye whose function has long
been recognized by humanity. It is called the 'Third Eye' which in
reality is the Pineal Gland. It is long thought to have mystical
powers. Many consider it the Spiritual Third Eye, our Inner Vision. It
is located in the geometric center of the brain. This correlates to
the location of the Great Pyramid in the center of the physical
planet.

The Pineal Gland is about the size of a pea, and is in the center of
the brain in a tiny cave behind and above the pituitary gland which
lies a little behind the root of the nose. It is located directly
behind the eyes, attached to the third ventricle.

The true function of this mysterious gland has long been contemplated
by philosophers and Spiritual Adepts. Ancient Greeks believed the
pineal gland to be our connection to the Realms of Thought.

Rene Descartes called it the Seat of the Soul, believing it is unique
in the anatomy of the human brain in being a structure not duplicated
on the right and left sides. This observation is not true, however;
under a microscope one finds the pineal gland is divided into two
fine hemispheres.

This gland is activated by Light, and it controls the various
biorhythms 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 the pineal gland awakens one feels a pressure at the base of the
brain. This pressure will often be experienced when connecting to
higher frequency. A head injury can also activate the Third Eye -
Pineal Gland.

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.
There is a pathway from the retinas to the hypothalamus called the
retinohypothalamic tract. It brings information about light and dark
cycles to a region of the hypothalamus called the suprachiasmatic
nucleus (SCN). From the SCN, nerve impulses travel via the pineal
nerve (sympathetic nervous system) to the pineal gland. These
impulses inhibit the production of melatonin. When these impulses
stop (at night, when light no longer stimulates the hypothalamus),
pineal inhibition ceases and melatonin is released. The pineal gland
is therefore a photosensitive organ and an important timekeeper for
the human body.

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 brains 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, if functions as a light receptor. In lower vertebrates,
the pineal gland has an eye like structure and it functions as a
light receptor and 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
levels in children is believed to inhibit sexual development. When
puberty arrives, melatonin production is reduced.

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, is 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' as
activated to a greater degree, through practice.

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 brainwave 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. 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.'

David Wilcock had placed a huge amount of info in his book the "Source Field Investigations" about the pineal gland, and tracks it down all throughout humanities history, and how it all ties into the sacred knowledge of the ancients. He gives a detailed synopsis on the past and present wisdoms that have been hidden in plain sight. Very interesting article above indeed...

WhiteFeather thank you for this post, nice!

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,

All I would like to add from persoanal observation/experience is; in relation to the quoted section above:

(Forget your external vision "EYE'S" When you imaging something you are using your Inner Eye/Sight. What I do is upon closing my external eye's (lids) is I sink back/relax and take the image into the middle of my head/brain. When you do that your external eye's are now actually closed (closing of the external eyes is not just the shutting of the Eye-Lids) and or separated from your physical self/concusses! you are using the Inner Eye.
You will feel the expansion of the visualization as you draw back from your external eye's, your visualization will be free!

This bit is important, with practice this can be done while your actual external eye's are still open!

I have read a few times in Avalon in relation to visualization, comments like 'The images are on the back of the eye lids!' If your doing that you are still trying to use your external-eye-sight-system)

So no straining of the eye muscles needed at all :)

Another thing in relation to the Inner-eye is that it's not all about seeing images, the opening of the inner eye by closing the external eye-system opens you to a greater connection to imagination, what I mean by that is; insight into new thoughts, connected, so not necessarily anything to do with images ;)

So close your eye-lids, now close your eye's ;) pull back the direction of your thought! and feel it expand. Be aware as you pull back your thought/visitation it's directional path, practice moving this path out sideways, left and right, up and down, in and out and then in every direction at the same time: full expansion!

Hope that adds some to the topic!

Love, peace and hugs

I have had a bad experience with the third eye meditation. Third eye meditation involves concentrating in the middle of the eyes and visualizing a beam of light going out of the third eye while chanting OM and breathing out. The last time I did it, I felt really shook up and sick for hours after 30 minutes of meditation. Maybe, I wasn't ready for it. Zen meditation is what I practise on a daily basis.

Some good stuff here for the Pineal Gland:

BENEFITS

Natural source of Omega 3, 6, 7 & 9 Fatty Acids.
Excellent source of Vitamins A, D, E & K.
Contains Dr. Weston A Price's "Activator X" (Vitamin K2) also found in High-Vitamin Butter Oil.
Ongoing research suggests fermented skate liver oil prevents calcification of the Pineal Gland.
Supports Cognitive Function.
May protect against tooth decay.

Skates are members of the ray family and closely related to sharks. Usually gray, they have a large flattened body and wings; but unlike other rays, skates do not have a tail barb or stinger. Skate livers are very large and produce a very deep orange pigmented oil. There is limited fishing of skates as the market for their meat is limited to just a few cultures. The skate used to produce Green Pasture's Blue IceŽ Fermented Skate Liver Oil is sustainably harvested from the pristine waters of Alaska's Aleutian Islands. You want to consume fermented skate liver oil because it is a thick, rich oil loaded with vitamins, enzymes, pigment, and naturally occurring nutrients that our bodies need for optimal health. Intriguing research suggests fermented skate liver oil may help to decalcify, detox and nourish the Pineal Gland. The Pineal Gland (aka "Third Eye" or "God/Spirit Gland") is located in the exact center of the brain, where is secretes Melatonin (sleep health), Seratonin (mood, well being). In humans and mammals, the Pineal Gland is also thought to be the source of DMT (Dimethyltryptamine) - responsible for the ability to visualize images in the mind, as well as mystical and near-death experiences.

Hi WhiteFeather, have you ever heard of Chaga? It's a fungus or some call it a mushroom that grows all
over the world but only on Birch trees as a growth. Another name for it is tinder fungus because it will
hold fire for a long time allowing our ancestors to carry fire over a distance. Yes it was used by native Americans....
as a medicinal by them along with the Russians and others it seems now for thousands of years.

It's full of melanin, antioxidants and the list goes on and on and on......AND IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD FOR THE PINEAL GLAND!

I started drinking it because I wanted something to drink besides water or juice. I find it here in the Blue Ridge Mountains it
tends to grow in colder mountainous areas. I break it up, run it through a coffee grinder, add cocoa for taste, no sugar, and
drink several cup a day. I really enjoy the stuff....take a gander at the videos.....all the best..... grizz

Here also is a link with things that help the Pineal
It also includes Chaga http://www.thrivenotes.com/tag/dmt/
