Third Eye
‘The third eye’ certainly has its physical substratum in the center of the nervous system. Pay most serious attention to the two glands of the brain—pituitary and pineal. The molecular movements of the pituitary gland develop psychic sight, but for the spiritual, highest sight, there should also be movements of the pineal gland. The radiations or emanations of these two glands, when unified, bring the highest results. (LHR I, p 146)
There is a belief that the organ which corresponds to the third eye is the pineal gland. This gland, together with the pituitary is now considered very important in the correct functioning of the organism. In ancient India they were also known as the channels for all spiritual-manasic manifestations. (LHR I, p 400)
