Exactly what kind of research and experiments were USA and Japan doing on the pineal gland from 88 to 94? The subject exploded in USA at the time runner up being Japan.
Things I know for sure..
Collaboration of the two nations took place on the subject.
Questionable methods of research/experiments.
Useful ages are young as pineal fluid hasn't crystallized.
Please offer any info on the subjects no matter how applicable.
The physical body is useful for manifesting consciousness - and yet we know that NDE people experienced consciousness (or perhaps awareness) when their bodies had no brain function.
Thus the physical body including pineal gland is only used for physical consciousness.
Still, if the physical body is the primary interest: I recall that Lobsang Rampa in one of the early books (before ghost writers) says that Tibetan priests would push a small splinter of wood through the middle of the forehead to activate the third eye.
It hardly seems possible on a physical level, but there may have been action on a more subtle level.
The development of the 12 senses on each plane of existence requires the accumulation of suitable substance/energy and the culturing of that substance to form appropriate sense organs.
This takes many years. Start with the Flame and after a few years add the 21 steps exercise.
Senses on subtle levels are well known including sense of:
- justice - humor - direction - doom - deja vu
Some of the subtle senses are attached to organs e.g. a nose for story
