The Pineal & 2012

Pineal
by Jonathan McGregor Bethel

"The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light."
Matt 6:22 KJV

If someone were to ask you where the "I" you realize about yourself is centered in your body, you would undoubtedly say behind your eyes. Well, that of course makes sense because our brain is in our head, and this is the place from where our mind looks out upon the world. However, esoteric thinkers have thought for a long time that the pineal gland has many mystical qualities and is the place where the "I AM" consciousness of our soul enters our body. Rene Descartes is the one who first called this gland the "Seat of the Soul," but a general esoteric understanding of the head chakra being tied to divine wisdom goes back much further.

Two deep esoteric strands of thought both place the heaven world, the Nirvanic realm, within the head of man. The Kabbalistic middle pillar of the tree of life and the Hindu chakra system both place stacked energy centers along the spine culminating in the mystical energy center of the Head. Both systems show how the grosser material tendencies are subsumed in the more rarified higher centers of the head. These two systems can be utilized to facilitate a complete integration of the personality under the aegis of the higher self, as lower personality energies are sublimated into the higher centers of the head.

The pineal gland is a pea-sized gland located in the center of our brain, and although the pineal is not exposed to the outside world, the gland is photosensitive; one of its functions is to regulate our circadian rhythms, our internal natural clock, using light to govern the pineal gland's melatonin production.

It has also been discovered that the pineal gland secretes several very intense psychedelic compounds, notably DMT. Dr. Rick Strassman has discovered that this compound is excreted by the pineal gland in large amounts at birth and at death. It is thought that this substance is the center piece in people who have had near death experiences, abduction scenarios, out of body experiences, and mystical peak experiences, not to mention he found high concentrations in schizophrenic patients.

This seems to be evidence that when it is fully open, our pineal gland is indeed a gland in the perception of the great hologram of the universe surrounding us. It is the third eye that sees into the spirit realm, the hologram of the Zero Point field, the mind of God. This third eye, this pineal gland, can be activated and fully opened through deep meditative practices and trance work.

Remote location viewer's focus on the third eye in the head when attempting to sense and project into the etheric realm surrounding us - they seek to travel the holographic etheric image of reality. There is really nothing magickal about it; we have just evolved to a point where we can now utilize hyper-spatial techniques and travel the etheric hologram.

Some 2012 eschatologists besides me, such as Geoff Stray, propose that the pineal gland is a future organ of perception. It is currently in a latent phase of operability, but that can change with reversal of the geomagnetic field. It is believed by some that a magnetic pole reversal on earth could trigger a mass production of these molecules in people all over the globe, a molecular vehicle whereby one travels to a new dimension, an ascension to a new plane of being.

None of us know for certain what will happen in 2012; this is just wild eyed speculation. However, the next major wave of sunspot activity is set to occur in 2012. In addition, solar activity has been on the increase since records started being kept. And scientists recently stipulated the earth is hotter than it ever has been in 1 million years. Sure, the burning of fossil fuels is adding horribly to global warming, yet the real culprit in the mounting earth changes is the solar activity. Not to mention, there are many anomalous activities occurring all over our solar system caused by increased solar activity. A solar magnetic field reversal in 2012 during an extremely active cycle would undoubtedly cause a magnetic polar reversal here on Earth.

So, it is possible that all this hoopla about 2012 is intuitive foreknowledge of a radical geomagnetic field reversal that will cause us all to excrete large quantities of the spirit molecule DMT, thereby creating mass telepathy worldwide, the full crystallizing of the noosphere and dawning of the Omega Point.

I must state that I do not prescribe to a any certain set of circumstances for 2012, as I try to be open to any new interpretations about our future; however, there is strong scientific evidence that supports this hypothesis. For a good overview of this and other 2012 related topics, Geoff Stray's "Beyond 2012" is an impeccable source; he is a friend and has created a magnum opus of 2012 related ideas.
