About the pineal gland
Nature reveals nature
This information comes as a surprise to me too. I'm sharing it with you.
Back at the juniper bushes
Recently, I had once again walked the Velhorst transformation walk, when, at the end, I paused with the person who was with me by the juniper bushes at the final spot of the walk, near the large beech tree. These are not the juniper bushes that play a role in the transformation walk. We weren’t standing directly by the beech tree, which lies just off the path, nor by the large oak tree opposite it, which is also a little further from the path. We were standing by the juniper bushes that border the path and surround the large oak tree. I had stood at this spot before, and at the time I had sensed that these bushes wanted me to come back for them at some point because they had something to tell me. I told this to the person who was with me. I added that I didn’t want to do that now because it was all becoming too much for me after the transformation walk. But this was the reason I focused on these bushes for a moment. Immediately, the words ‘pineal gland’ and ‘eyes’ were presented to me in German. I wrote them down because I know myself; I tend to forget things like that. I told the bushes that I would return soon to hear what they wanted to say, and we moved on.
Complete acceptance
A week later I was back, this time especially for these juniper bushes. I sat down in a spot next to them in the sun. Lovely. I have a thing for juniper bushes. I don’t know what it is, but we feel good together. Pen and paper at the ready. All set to go. I read out the words I’d jotted down beforehand: pineal gland and eyes. The pineal gland and the eyes form a single organ, I was immediately told. And: accept everything completely. I paused for a moment to consider what that last remark meant. Is that the start of the information I’m receiving? Is what they want to say about acceptance? Ah no, that’s not what they mean. It’s about this moment: here and now taking in what the bushes have to say, I must accept everything completely. That’s fine, I decided. I therefore resolved not to ask any questions or make any comments, but to let everything unfold as it would and simply take notes.
The third eye*
The third eye has withdrawn inwards and become part of the brain. It has given the brain a certain ability to restructure perceived facts. And then it seems as if it resembles clairvoyance, but it is a restructuring of perceived facts and not so much new facts. Because the eye was originally turned outwards.** It gives the brain a new ability.
* The pineal gland has traditionally been referred to as the ‘third eye’, a name that was originally accurate from a physical perspective, as the explanation makes clear.
** Because the eye was originally turned outwards, “it has this ability because eyes see everything in relation to one another.” I am adding that last bit afterwards because I remember that was the intention.
Current lack of understanding
The lack of understanding of the observed facts is indeed striking. People used to be more sensitive in the third eye. They understood the facts better. Consequently, they did not think about them so much. And thinking has, in a certain way, taken over that function in a highly manipulative manner. Because you can invent and conceive of all sorts of things.
Original connections
The eye, and especially the third eye, are about the original connections. The juniper bushes are connected to these connections. You could say that they ‘make’ connections. For us, that is the case. But they illuminate connections so that they enter our existence. So they link existing connections to our existence, so that we see them and are connected to them. That connection was already there but lay outside our consciousness.
But something must also have its own independence, and that is partly determined by the kind of connections it has. And it is attuned to that. But there are often many more possibilities. Consider the connection between human talents and abilities on the one hand and animals on the other.*
* This is discussed in a footnote on the webpage ‘Who is Ollie?’ I repeat: “In a trance session I saw that Ingeborg's cat is one of the carriers of responsibilities and tasks and also of the instruments needed for that, and that he, as it were, helps carry humanity, in his case Ingeborg. Such animals are co-bearers of humanity. They help people who have tasks and responsibilities to carry them.”
Many possibilities
So what connections do the juniper bushes make?
These are also presented to them, for example through the transformation walk and through experiences. The juniper bushes activate connections within us; the eyes make them visible to ourselves.
