Where have you been?

I haven't posted on this blog for months.  I continue to study and research, and have discovered some of the most wonderful things about the blessing and invitation to fast.  I wish that I could say I have gotten better at going without food.

I have been struggling lately, really struggling.  I know I would have a greater peace if I would fast more.  Not that I don't go without food, don't get me wrong.  But I am missing HOME so badly.  I was thinking about honoring our mother and father in the sense that the world was very much a mother to all of us.  She provides food and water, warmth and comfort, shade from trees, soft grass to walk on.  What mother wouldn't do that for us.

When I am feeling somewhat sad, I want comfort and that often comes in the form of food.  Comfort food from Mother earth, something no tampered with by the hand of man, can taste delicious.

As I fast, or contemplate fasting, seeking for that time with the Savior, sometimes I fast, or feast on the finer things provided by Mother earth.  This month it has been raw goat's milk.  Honestly, it felt like a kind blanket wrapped around me.

Also, I have spent a great deal of time in my garden this spring.  The colors are beautiful.  I grew a plant called and Ichium, or more commonly known as a tower of jewels.  It started to lean, so it really looked like the leaning tower of jewels.  Then it toppled, but I am going to save the seeds.

But it has fed my soul to be out in nature, and the flowers are starting to blossom, the bees are coming around, and I guess you could say I was fasting from the chaos of the world, and feasting with my loving Mother earth, feeling the love from God and enjoying the fast.

If you have had a remarkable experience and you would like to share it on this blog, I would love to take a look at it.  Send me a comment.

Pineal Gland and the Holy of Holies

What does the pineal gland, the third eye, and the sphenoid bone have to do with fasting?  Really good question, but while you were waiting for the next post, I learned some really incredible things about this gland.

Jacob went to a place of seclusion to call upon the Lord.  After wrestling with a man, who was God, he receives the new name of Israel.  According to Margaret Barker, Israel means he who has seen God.  This would make it more clear when we read about his naming this place after having the witness of God.

Genesis 32:30

30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.

This little bit of information is big enough to fill libraries from nearly the beginning of time.  I am sharing a portion of another blog to whet your whistle about the pineal gland.

Let us examine and important gland in our brain called the pineal gland that has been named for this very event in Biblical history and what its importance is. The Pineal Gland is the equivalent of the Third Eye represented in Hinduism and Buddhism. It resides in the Holy of Holies in the temple of Solomon.

The ancient people used the term " Third Eye " to represent the pineal gland. The pineal gland is shaped like a pinecone and it is the gateway to all other realities of consciousness.

This was one of the greatest secrets hidden from mankind by the Illuminati bloodlines. The Catholic Church sent tropes all over to destroy all ancient knowledge and make the remaining knowledge as crap by "Primitive " people. While they and some bloodlines process the knowledge and control humanity through manipulation.

The pineal gland is shaped like a pinecone and the ancient people know about the pineal gland and how it works. So they used the pinecone to honor the pineal gland and the person’s, kings or gods who have pineal gland fully activated.

You could see the pinecone and third eye symbolism in all cultures throughout history.

http://2012decoded.blogspot.com/2012/04/pineal-gland-third-eye-explained.html

So here is more information that you might have wanted to know about this little gland in your head. It entrains to a particular frequency of 144. Music that is tuned to 432 Hz on A, (not the standard 440 Hz that altered the frequencies of all the music played and recorded since 1920), will provide the music that sends out a wavelength that entrains to heaven.  It was the High Priest only who was allowed into this sacred room to offer up the prayers for the body of God’s people.

Whenever you start seeing the number 144 in the scriptures, it's a big wake-up call.  144 is 12 squared.  And anything in Hebrew that has zeros after it indicates magnification.  Evidently those who fast and plead with the Lord, perhaps termed as wrestling, will find themselves in the same place as Jacob/Israel, Enos, Alma, Nephi, Mormon, or Moroni.  Perhaps that wrestling is a song of praise and a prayer of the heart sent out to match a frequency resonant with the heavens. 

We get some further explanation of those 144,000 from Doctrine and Covenants 77:11.

Q. What are we to understand by sealing the one hundred and forty-four thousand, out of all the tribes of Israel—twelve thousand out of every tribe? A. We are to understand that those who are sealed are high priests, ordained unto the holy order of God, to administer the everlasting gospel; for they are they who are ordained out of every nation, kindred, tongue, and people, by the angels to whom is given power over the nations of the earth, to bring as many as will come to the church of the Firstborn.

In the famous treatise on fasting, Isaiah explains in 58:9:  

Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am.

Here we all are today, for each one of us can fast, pray, and call upon the Lord.  We do not have to have entrance into the few temples built by man to have access to the Holy of Holies.  You most likely would not get entrance into it anyway. We have one in our very own body.  We can call upon the Lord, wrestling in mighty prayer and fasting if it is indeed God that we want to see, and to recognize the blessings he has promised.  It is not an ancient myth.  God would have us take hold of this incredible gift.

Sunlight and Fasting Part 4

When I began my temple/human body correspondence research, I continued to look at much of the egyptian hieroglyphics with some awe, but mostly confusion.  Once I began to study the fast, certain elements began to unfold that were most interesting, and illuminating.

I am sure you have seen this particular figure.  It is called the Eye of Ra.

This symbol has been popular for millennia, but why?  It's all over the place, but has no real explanation for the masses.  What is the attraction?  I had no idea what this figure meant.  Only last year when I was studying the Holy of Holies in the Temple of Solomon did things begin to unveil themselves.

What you are looking at is the pineal gland deep within the brain.  The bone that covers it, the sphenoid bone, which might be construed as a hiding place, looks very similar to the arc of the covenant in the holy of holies described in 1 Kings.  In both Exodus and 1 Kings, the description is of two winged creatures that were placed above the covenant box:  Each had two wings.  Two of their outstretched wings touched each other in the middle of the room and the other two wings touched the walls.

The wings touched the walls.  This first depiction does not look like it is touching the walls at all.

There are literally thousands of depictions of the arc of the covenant from the Exodus version, so take some time to go on Google Images and look for yourself.  All are made from approximation, as there is nothing physical to take this drawing from with the exception of the description in the Bible.

However, let us look at the exact words in 1 Kings 23:27

And within the oracle he (Solomon) made two cherubims of olive tree, each ten cubits high. And five cubits was the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other were ten cubits. And the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubim's were of one measure and one size.  The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so was it of the other cherub. And he set the cherubims within the inner house: and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house.

Nowhere could I find an artistic depiction of this arc.  None of the other arcs had wings that reached out to the walls.  However, I did find something that was very amazing, for after I looked at the Eye of Ra in the brain, I went looking around in the skull for something, anything that might connect this depiction of the arc, the pineal gland, and the brain.  Here is what I found.

Even the description in Gray's Anatomy tells that these bones are called wings and there are also the smaller wings which touch the inside of the house.

Well, what does this have to do with our Indian fellow who fasted for 411?  How does this have anything to do with coming closer to Christ?

Sunlight and Fasting Part 3

This is an excerpt from notes on HRM, and is rather lengthy, but I found explanations to temples through study of this.  Stay with it. I think you will be well rewarded.

What are the Cosmic Sources of Energy? Plain and simple: Solar Energy

Everything exists because of the sun.  All by products are secondary sources of light.  They could be commonly thought of as the certain elements of life on earth.  Plants, water, and all living beings.  Everything is energized by the sun

Mankind is using solar energy for running solar cookers, solar heaters, and solar cars through solar batteries, etc. Similarly Shri Hira Ratan Manek (H.R.M.) has almost converted himself into a kind of a solar cooker and has solar batteries activated in him. The solar energy has two components, the light and the heat (temperature).

How then is SUN energy received? The Brain & the mind are the most powerful recipients in the human body. The retina & the pineal gland (The third eye or the seat of soul as per Rene Descartes) are equipped with photoreceptor cells and may be considered photosensitive organs.

As the plant kingdom thrives on chlorophyll & photosynthesis, directly dependant on the Sun, similarly, some kind of photosynthesisor photoanalysis must be taking place when we hypothesize Sun energy. Through complex ways and distinct pathways this energy must enter the body. Is it a direct entry into the physical body, or it enters through auras of human body (please refer to Karelian photography). This has yet to be examined. It is quite possible that human aura plays a modulating role for allowing this energy into the physical body.

There is a pathway from the retina, to the hypothalamus, called the retinohypothalamic tract. This brings information about the dark & light cycles to supra chiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus. From the SCN, impulses along the nerve travel via the pineal nerve (Sympathetic nervous system) to the pineal gland. These impulses inhibit the production of melatonin. When these impulses stop (at night or in dark, when the light no longer stimulates the hypothalamus) pineal inhibition ceases, & melatonin is released. The pineal gland (or the third eye) is therefore a photosensitive organ & an important timekeeper for the human body. The unexplored process of energy synthesis & transformation from the sun energy perhaps partly occurs here.

While going through the details of recent scientific literature & also comparing it with ancient Indian spiritual texts, as well as Western occult & new age, the following things are apparent.

The activation of the pineal gland is the key step in psychic, spiritual & energy transformation processes. Here, in this gland, energy processing & re-distribution might be taking place. The pineal gland is the subtle commander of all endocrine glands, therefore controlling the humeral system. Through secretion of melatonin, it also regulates the circadian rhythm, sleep wake cycle & it also slows down aging process. It has psychic properties & is the seat of soul or mind - so called the third eye. (Possibly that is why Tilak is done in the forehead - in front of pineal and yogis do meditation with closed eyes, concentrating in between two eyebrows.

It is the Agna (Ajna) chakra of tantrik system. Its activation can be done with prolonged yoga & meditation techniques or through practice of solar energy. The later does not use classic yoga steps.

As per recent research in animals; Pineal gland also inhibits growth & metastasis of some tumors. It has a stimulatory effect on the immune system. In birds & other animals, it has a magnetic material & is therefore the navigation centre in birds. Scientists are looking at magnetic, navigatory properties of the pineal gland in humans. Further, through the secretion of serotonin, it is involved in psychic experiences, synaptic transmission and several unknown powerful occult powers. A lot of research is required to validate this, though some initial studies have already supported this view, e.g. the chemical structure of LSD (a drug used for psychic experiences) is similar to serotonin.

So pineal activation and charging through solar energy is the vital step & that is the doorway of energy highway. This may be kundlini shakti activation, in other words.

Normal Pineal gland measures 6 x 8 mm in human body. As per C.T.Scan & MRI Scan reports of Mr.Hira Ratan Manek it is 8 x 11 mm. (enlarged!) This may indirectly support the important role of pineal gland in energy transformation. However it is not necessary that anatomic enlargement always reflects hyperfunction . The increased hormonal secretion i.e. melatonin and serotonin levels should also be measured. Even without anatomical enlargement, there can be hyperfunction. Then we should study the pineal size and hormonal level in all psychically and spiritually evolved people or all people with extraordinary capacities.

Ever since mankind has started ignoring the psychically and Spiritually equipped pineal gland it has fallen on merely physical-material plane & therefore endless pains have fallen on the mankind.

Mankind must now relearn to activate pineal & the other psychospiritual bodies either through cosmic energy dynamics or through practice of Rajyoga or the Tantrik ways or other such practices. (One can imagine that high voltage energy transmission through shaktipat as occasionally yogis do to transfer energy in to their esteem disciples may be utilizing pineal gland or similar bodies). Kundlini Shakti is said to be activated through these & happiness & bliss with peace are bound to follow.

This solar (light and heat) energy may be transformed into electrical, magnetic or chemical energies in body. Once processed, this energy must be transported & must be stored somewhere. Actually the ultimate form of all energies is light. Energy & light can be transformed into matter & back again to energy.

Hypothalamus is the commander of autonomic nervous system & pineal gland is in proximity to hypothalamus and is connected to it through autonomic nerves. So it is logical that new energy transportation may either activate this system or it may use this system as vehicle. Parasympathetic nerves & its hormones & chemicals may be more useful than the sympathetic system. As sympathetic system increases body needs (e.g. thinking, fighting stress, excitement etc.), parasympathetic system is known to reduce the energy needs. It keeps the person serene & at mental peace and alters the metabolic requirements to a lower state & puts it to sleep. We can also hypothesize that there may be other hormones, or chemicals too, involved in this complex energy transportation system. It is well known that pituitary and pineal glands are well connected through regulatory hormones and nerves. While pituitary gland expresses and controls physical body, we have seen that pineal expresses and controls mainly mental and spiritual bodies.

Thus intricate balance and harmony between the two glands is very crucial point in the total (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual) health or well-being of a human body, and it must be anyway achieved.

The role of temporal lobe & limbic system also may be important. It may work as a regulator, if not receptor and may be psychically involved in directing the energy in proper pathways. Deep into the limbic systems or in the parts of medulla oblongata, this energy may ultimately be stored & from time to time, may be recalled, charged or recycled. Medulla oblongata has all vital centres & therefore can be proposed as store of vital energy.

Thus there are energy receivers or receptors, processors, analyzers, modulators, transformers, transporters, stores (organ or bodies) etc. to explain the energy logistics.

As this form of energy mathematics is different from what we conventionally are used to, in form of food & calorie mathematics; we will call this food as microfood or mind utilization food.

Apart from the retina & the pineal gland, skin & other senses may also be responsible for receiving energies from these different sources. In short, this opens up tremendous possibilities, which will need a very sincere effort from us to crystallize and to practice it for welfare of mankind. This micro food can solve food crisis on earth, & in fact, is the only possible food in present context for somebody who wants to be a long-term space traveler or planet traveler. Amazing! It is time to note that our routine food is not the only source to sustain the body.

The role of mind: It is well known that the mind has enormous capacity, (The soul has even further or infinite capabilities). Through Sun Tratak & Meditation, tremendous capacities are attained, which will bring tranquility to mind and also slow down metabolism. Mind can do everything including so-called miracles. It can revitalize body, it can heal diseases, it can know things in advance & it can manipulate laws of physics. The phenomena of telepathy, reading somebody’s thoughts, teleporting the things, bending the items, all are very well known examples of human mind capacities. If a strong mind decides to do unusual fasting, it can certainly do. It is unclear till this date whether mind is a separate entity or the pineal gland it self. According to some, each cell has mind and thus in other words mind is a diffuse electromagnetic and biochemical continuous process. And one thing is clear, that out of all the body organs, the mind has a direct access to cosmic energy. Our mind is an invagination or outpouching of cosmic mind and cosmic energy, and pineal in that case would be the knob-important hub of the mind.

Shri Hira Ratan Manek looks at the rising sun daily, with the naked eye and without blinking the eyes, as far as possible. To look for a few seconds initially and then every week to increase by few seconds to ultimately reach up to several minutes. 

Sunlight and Fasting Part 2

HRM was not the only person who decided upon such a plan.  It is evident from reading the scriptures that long periods of fasting in the desert or wilderness not only provided extended periods of time in direct sunlight, but walking and resting upon the energy filled soil.

Mikhael Aivanhov was a famed Hungarian teacher who advocated to his students that they must look into the sun. Certainly whole civilizations have given themselves to the worship of the sun. Rudolph Steiner (recent Western Spiritual Scientist and originator of Anthroposophy) taught that the Christ Being inhabited the Sun and spread His energy thus, from the sun to us.

Aurobindo taught that the sun was the seat of the Supermind energy, as quoted by Georges Van Vrekehm in Overman pg. 97 Rupa & Co. (2001); New Delhi: "It (the Mind) always vaguely remembers the fundamental Unity at its base; therefore it cannot but persistently try to recover that Unity, which is the clouded Sun behind all human strivings. It is that Sun, that Unity, the Supermind which upholds all existing things, even when they apparently seem to be separated or self-existent."

HRM decided to experiment cautiously. He also submitted himself to medical study as he began to look at the sun for seconds at a time, during the early dawn when the sun was weakest. He increased his ability little by little, until he was able to gaze for a full thirty minutes. At the same time he made it a point to walk the earth barefooted, the hot earth. His explanation is that not only was he able to absorb energy, the sun's energy, through the eyes (to have it energize the brain and the commanding endocrine glands such as the pineal and the pituitary) but also that he was able to draw force up from the earth and especially through the feet, where every organ of the body is represented in reflexology. He found that there is a North-South flow, the earth being the North, the sun being the South--and flowing through the central, governing vessel of the body. He made certain that he was followed by and advised by physicians, who constantly studied him.

When asked if he would be willing to give a year of his life to science, his answer was "Yes." Accordingly, he left his family (with their full consent) and was asked to fast for 365 days. However, because of certain indications in the Hindu literature, he felt that 411 days was a more auspicious time. And so the date was set.

In the beginning he lost 90 pounds, but no muscle tissue. He found himself to be progressively healthier, calmer, happier. Former disorders such as anxiety, fear, worry and self-occupation left him. Physical ailments were no longer present. He lived on water and sunlight alone.

His body looked so whole: slender, but graceful, firm, with smooth and elegant movements. He had a calmness about him that was also accompanied by a quiet self-assuredness. 

Sunlight and Fasting Part 3

A majority of the information in this section is taken from several articles on Shri Hira Ratan Manek.  Please bear with the length of this.  There are some very key points regarding the change that light has on him due to his fast.

What are the Cosmic Sources of Energy? Plain and simple: Solar Energy

Sunlight and fasting

Several years ago I began my studies on fasting and the effects upon the body and spirit.  At a conference I was attending, I began having a conversation with a dear friend regarding the state of the body of someone who fasts. I explained that fasting promotes the alkali state in the body.  While having this discussion, one of my friends commenced to tell me an interesting and tender story.

She had lost a little daughter some years ago.  Evidently she fell off something and hit her head.  By the time my friend found her, the child had stopped breathing. The paramedics were unable to arouse her.  They tried everything within their power but to no avail.  

The doctor commented to my friend that they tested the deceased child's blood and it was highly acidic.  Evidently there is a level shown in blood samples that tell of the deterioration of the blood to the point that modern medical techniques cannot revive a person to life. This is indicated by a highly acidic state in the body fluids.

I am sure you are wondering what this has to do with fasting.  But please bear with me.  I have more to share that will show you the connections between this little girl and her acidic state and fasting.

Everything that I have ever studied about the fasting situation is to bring us into the literal presence of Christ.  There must needs be some change that takes place in our bodies that will allow us to abide His light.

My dear friend went on to share with me some of her research about the alkaline state of the body.  If you are not aware of the perfect pH balance, it is registered in the fluids of the body, i.e., urine, blood, etc., at 7.4.  My sacred geometry and chiasmus research has indicated that without exception, the number 7 is involved with being in the presence of light.  Even medical tests and hertz readings in the 7’s range are quite interesting and connected to life thriving levels. Let me continue.

She then told me of a man that had been involved in the most extensive fast ever recorded. It lasted for 411 and is heavily documented and attended by a multitude of mostly very skeptical physicians. I, too, was skeptical, but very fascinated.  I had to find out for myself.

The gentleman who performed this is Sri Hira Manek Ratan Ji, (referred to as HRM) from Ahmedabad, India. By trade, HRM was an engineer. He had studied the ancient literature and had learned of advanced humans (throughout the ages) who had the ability to fast for extremely long periods of time, and who had taken their energy from the sun. This was the highly regarded literature of the Vedas and Upanishads.

HRM walked in the sun for long periods of time. He left his profession and dedicated himself entirely to his spiritual commitment. As he kept walking in the sun, he felt progressively energized. He also felt less and less need to eat food. There was no compulsion to do a fast; no will power was necessary, just a lessened desire for food, but an increase in energy. One day, he came to the conclusion that he must bring the sun's energy directly into his brain--and the best way to do that would be through the eyes.   So he began feasting upon the light of the sun, both in gazing at the sun, and in walking on the hot earth.
