Spirituality And The Pineal Gland

Going back to the experiment conducted by the medical research institute in the U.K, around 30 people were weighed in their final moments of life and weighed a millisecond after death. It was found that the body weighed almost 30 grams lesser. It couldn't have been air. It was as if the body lost something just milliseconds after death. This certainly indicates something, something science has no answers to.

In many forms of meditation, the focus is on the region between the eyebrows. A few cms behind is exactly where the pineal gland is situated. The role of pineal gland is to secrete DMT. DMT is secreted in small amounts in every person and it peaks between 3 am and 4 am. Apart from secretion of DMT, the pineal gland does not have any other tangible function as far as functioning of the mind and body is concerned.
