Your third eye, the pineal gland

Throughout the ages and cultures, the pineal gland has been thought of as the organ that allows us to access the realms of spiritual transcendence.

Commonly known as the third eye, it is about the size of a pea that resides in the center of the brain and, like our eyes, has rods that the eyes use to see, but unlike the eyes on our face, our third eye, our pineal gland, allows us to see the inner light.

The pineal gland, regulated by light, is known to regulate the amount of melatonin that is released into our body. Melatonin, responsible for our sleep cycles and biorhythms, is known to keep our immune system strong and healthy and can affect the amount of HGH (human growth hormone) we produce. But what is less known is that the pineal gland is where DMT is produced.

DMT, (N-dimethyltryptamine) commonly known as “The spirit molecule” (Rick Strassman) is a natural molecule that is synthesized and released by our pineal gland during the following moments: at birth, during REM sleep, psychosis, mystical experiences . and death.

Although the discovery of DMT is relatively new. Its effects have long been understood by mystical and esoteric traditions, recognizing that when the pineal gland is properly activated (releasing DMT), it floods consciousness with light, resulting in a transcendental experience of ‘higher’ spiritual realms.

Activation of the pineal gland can occur spontaneously. But mostly it happens using a focused intention meditative practice.
