Yoda Posted March 13, 2008 okay, so there are some aliens involved. Maybe we need aliens please and no aliens allowed subforums. But just regarding third eye development, it's an interesting show. http://www.aypsite.org/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3581 Just some background from the biology of kundalini before checking it out: Interestingly the word pineal stems from the word pineus for pinecone although the pineal gland is about the size of a grain of rice. The Thyrsus is a staff tipped with a pinecone and twined with ivy, carried by Dionysus, his revelers, and satyrs. Dionysus represents the God of the metamorphic process of spiritual death and rebirth; the most mysterious human experience ever to be encountered. Dionysus must have been the first God of Kundalini for he carries a Thyrsus. Whether it signifies the pineal gland or not, it is obvious that the pinecone represents the "flowering" of consciousness. The pinecone is reminiscent of the thousand petalled crown chakra--the Sahasrara, and the ivy represents the double-helical flow of kundalini around the central channel of the spine--the sushumna. This symbol is perhaps a more ancient version of the staff of Hermes--the Caduceus, which used in alchemical and esoteric schools and now the medical industry.

Procurator Posted March 13, 2008 okay, so there are some aliens involved. Maybe we need aliens please and no aliens allowed subforums.

Anatomy of the Pineal Gland The pineal gland is a small organ shaped like a pine cone (hence its name). It is located on the midline, attached to the posterior end of the roof of the third ventricle in the brain. The pineal varies in size among species; in humans it is roughly 1 cm in length, whereas in dogs it is only about 1 mm long. http://arbl.cvmbs.colostate.edu/hbooks/pat...ndo/pineal.html dog's third eye eh?
