YES THE THIRD EYE IS REAL!!!
The concept of the third eye started with Sanatan Dharma where Shiva is suppose to have a third eye and is called TRIYAMBHAKESHWARA.
SPIRITUALLY-The third eye is the eye of vision. The two physical eyes are just sensory organs. They feed the mind with all kinds of nonsense, because what you see is not the truth. You see this person or that person and you think something about him, but you are not able to see the Shiva in him. You see things the way it is necessary for your survival. Another creature sees it another way, as is necessary for its survival. This is why we say this world is maya. Maya means it is illusory. We are not saying that existence is illusory. We are only saying the way you are perceiving it is illusory. So another eye, an eye of deeper penetration, has to be opened up. The third eye means your perception has gone beyond the dualities of life. You are able to see life just the way it is, not just the way that is necessary for your survival.
SCIENTIFICALLY-
Pineal gland is a cone shaped gland in the midst of brain and most significant part of the brain. You can say below the soft portion of the skull which can be felt in infants is very important in terms of conscious ness. It can be said as mind’s eye or the third eye or the sixth sense . What makes it so special is that a vast amount of energy and blood flows through it more than any other gland in the human body. It is now believed that it helps to regulate the functions of Pitutary gland .
It is said that when the pineal gland or 'third eye' is awakened, one is able to see beyond space time into time space. It raises the frequency on which one operates and moves one into a higher consciousness. With more research it is being realized that it is essentially a spiritual antenna the mystical third eye of ‘lord Shiva’. For many eons, the third eye has been seen as a way to reach higher levels of consciousness while still being present in a physical body. This concept of the pineal gland being the “seat of the soul” or the “spiritual gateway to all realms and all dimensions” This notion of the third eye is scientific fact. The purpose of this third eye is the key here, which opens the door to the metaphysical interpretations that ancient wisdom talks about.
The pineal gland is also responsible for secreting two extremely vital brain fluids related to our mental health. Those are, melatonin, which is the hormone that induces sleep, and serotonin, which is the chemical that helps to maintain a happy, healthy balanced mental state of mind, among other functions. By activating the pineal gland one can have live body experience into the universe as explained by our sages. Rishi Vishvamitra is one very significant example. Vedvayas and rishi valmiki are few other who could look into future and universe both,the pineal gland is active in the infants as it is said that the infant directly receive the cosmic energy for their survival. There after pineal gland gets inactive / calcified and it can be witnessed as early as 2-yrs. Of age and calcification rate tend to increase with age. The calcification occurs due to our environment and our lifestyle habits? Are our children’s pineal glands being suppressed on purpose? Children are seen as the most spiritual beings as they don’t have any of the fears or concerns of adults when they are born. They are born free and full of unconditional love. It is society that places these fears and conditioning on our children. It would be interesting to know what would happen if a child’s pineal gland wasn’t affected by its environment and was allowed to develop, grow and be activated.
How to decalcify it… accumulation fluoride and calcium phosphate crystals found in the body. Again to decalcify / awaken the pineal gland meditation and prayers are said to be best. Meditation needs to be done in dark room till the gland gets decalcified. Breathing exercises especially deep breathing helps in more of oxygen flow to the gland. green leafy vegetables help to detoxify the body. Garlic is said to be playing a great role in decalcification. Fresh lime and other citrus fruits are supposed to be good and a simple balanced vegetarian meal with a healthy life style goes long way to open this gate way into the world of our higher existence.
Scientists believe that by stimulating the pineal gland, will awaken or perhaps energize the dormant DNA, the junk DNA. All of this is happening to take us to a higher place we are calling ascension. You can be an unlimited source of vibrating energy. With more findings about the mysteries of pineal gland the scientists do believe that yes, it can be possible to travel in the cosmos through meditation and yogic discipline which eastern mystics have been talking about.
