Scientific Basis of Herbalism
As the plant kingdom evolved, different plants developed different strategies to protect themselves from a range of predators from brontosaurs to micro-organisms, and to attract assistance in reproduction. Many of these strategies were chemical: the plants became poisonous or bad-tasting to various types of predator, or sent out scents that attracted insects and other potential pollinators.
---------
Sesquiterpenes are formed from three isoprene units; structure varying. In plants, these may serve as a chemical means of competition (black walnuts, for instance, produce sesquiterpenes which makes it difficult for other plants to grow near their roots), forms of pheromones which attract insects, an aspect of the plant’s “immune system” which defends it against fungal and microbial attacks, or a defense against insect predation.
Sesquiterpenes often affect human chemistry: for instance, chamazulene (found in the blue oils of German chamomile – Matricaria chamomilla or recutita – wormwood, and yarrow) has both anti-inflammatory and antipyretic (fever reducing) qualities. Zingiberine is found in ginger rhizomes; it has a carminative effect and is probably the source of ginger root’s commonly known usefulness in suppressing nausea.

See the movie "From Beyond" to learn the real reason for the Pineal Gland. It is for our evolution, all right, and we will evolve into a being that has never before been seen on the planet.
Sometimes there is truth in movies. You just have to figure out which movies have it.

Is the key for ascension the pineal gland?
In the world of religion, there is some attention being assigned to the issues for the pineal gland and the power for the human brain to function on higher levels.
In the world of religion, we find an appreciation for frankincense and here we find an association to making the pineal gland work better. The frankincense being one of the gifts of the Wise Men from Babylon to Jesus. Was there this deeper purpose to give Jesus the frankincense?
Even when one gets on down the history to the "Lord's Supper" and the "Last Supper" of Jesus we find the issues of Boron rich soils of Israel being part of the Lord's Supper foods of Wine and Grain (bread) and if one digs a little deeper one finds boron rich foods counter fluoride effects on the Pineal gland.
Dig some more and one finds that folks like Elijah settled at Mt. Carmel and an area with high Boron. Mt. Carmel was the origin for the Sons of Zadok, which became the first high priests in Solomon's temple. Dig even more and one finds that the Temple of Solomon was built over the Gihon Spring, which has Boron mineral and was the water for the Garden of the Kings. Dig a little deeper and one finds Mt. Carmel is also the site for the Essene temple and the roots for Essene mystery school teachings.
Elijah was close with the gods of Anu and considered much like Enoch, and both were taken away when the gods of Anu departed Earth. In times of Jesus we find his issues with the Mount of Olives, which is another boron loaded fruit, and the Garden there was the site for an Olive Oil press, and this used to anointing folks.

A Fluoride-Free Pineal Gland is More Important than Ever
Well, what does all this have to do with the pineal gland? A lot. It is considered a portal to the inner or higher self by yogi masters, including Paramahansa Yogananda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi. Psychics consider it to be the link for inter dimensional experiences. It is associated with what many call the third eye or sixth chakra, which is a doorway to higher consciousness and bliss.
And it is vital for supporting intuition, an ability that will be needed during hard times. So it is necessary to evolve spiritually in order to help create better understanding, acceptance of our fellow humans, and easier group cooperation. Meditation is a part of this evolving. That and a little sunshine, good rest and food, can cause a calcified pineal gland to loosen up and allow that portal to open.
------
This information is meant to link the physical realm’s pineal gland to higher states of awareness and other realms. The point is not to advocate or discourage psychedelic drug use, but to encourage health, meditation and spiritual growth by maintaining a fluoride free pineal gland. 2012 is approaching. Time to get in shape
Is this a connection to those that appear to be waking from a long sleep that missed much of the important religious factors now driving the awareness of the human minds around the planet?
The Story for Jesus was one of his ascension into heaven from the Mount of Olives, which was opposite the corrupted temple in the times of the Pharisee and Sadducee. The story tells Jesus return will stem from this same site of the Mount of Olives. Even the story for Islam's founder Muhammad speaks to his ascension at Jerusalem, and thus the lands of boron rich food and water.

Well, you might lay that foundation so others might follow where you got that idea.
With ascention of prayers tied to burned offerings and myrrh in the first temple, there were no issues of souls and heart. Their came no judgements for a prayer.
So, there are several symbolic associations implied for ascension:
1. Prayers with smoke.
2. Jesus floats off to a cloud in the sky.
3. Higher learning allows the religious mysteries to become known.
You might be impling that ascention is truth given by the soul and heart as being the highest learning that solves the mysteries.

Kunzea was first distilled by a Tasmania farmer named John Hood, who noticed that the steel wire fence that had this strange plant growing near it was not rusting, and decided to find out why.
The answer is contained within its biochemical makeup, which includes sesquiterpenes with powerful anti-inflammatory properties. Along with the other compounds that make up the oil, Kunzea’s resulting properties include extremely powerful anti-inflammatory action, making it unique for applications like rheumatoid arthritis and rheumatism, where it can be rubbed “neat” (undiluted) on the affected joints to obtain immediate relief.

Human Growth Hormone, Melatonin And The Pineal Gland.
The pineal isn't an actual gland; it's a neuroendocrine transducer: meaning it converts incoming nerve impulses into outgoing hormones. Most glands are triggered by changes in the body or hormones secreted by other glands. The pineal gland releases hormones in response to bioelectrical messages from the outside environment received through the eyes. The optic nerve sends information to the visual portion of the brain through nerve fibers. The impulses from the brain are carried to the superior cervical ganglia (a cluster of nerve cells) in the upper part of the neck by smaller nerve fibers. From there the autonomic nervous system relays the information to the pineal.

Human growth hormone (HGH), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and melatonin are all free radical scavenging, antioxidant and anti-aging hormones. Melatonin may be the most efficient of the free radical scavengers, especially for anti-aging, since it has the ability to permeate any cell in any part of the body. Within the cells, melatonin provides protection for the nucleus, the central structure containing the DNA. Protection of the central structure allows a damaged cell to repair itself. If a cell can't repair itself, it can mutate and turn into a cancer cell. The enzyme glutathione is stimulated by melatonin.

Fundamental Notions of Endocrinology & Criminology, a book by Samael Aun Weor
The Pineal Gland
Written by Samael Aun Weor
The pineal gland is situated in the posterior part of the brain. This small gland is only five millimeters in diameter. A very important, fine, sand-like tissue surrounds it. The pineal gland is a small tissue of a red-grayish color. This small gland is intimately related with the sexual organs. The pineal gland secretes certain hormones that regulate the whole process of evolution and the development of the sexual organs

There is no doubt that all the great Biblical prophets were great pinealists. Scientific chastity combined with certain practices permitted them to see the Ultra of Nature.
Gnostics state that the atom of the Holy Spirit is found within the pineal gland. Biology is resolved to investigate all these things. The Orientals affirmed that in the pineal gland is found the lotus flower of a thousand petals. There is no doubt that this is the crown of saints.
Human beings of great intelligence have their pineal gland highly developed. It has been discovered that the pineal glands of cretins are atrophied.

The blood directly absorbs the secretions of the endocrine glands. The blood bears all the secretions of the endocrine glands to other organs and glands that then are forced to be pushed in a major effort to a more intense work. The word hormone comes from a Greek word that means “to excite.” Indeed, the hormones have the power of exciting the whole organism and obligate it to work.
The secretions of the endocrine glands also have influence over the mind. We now see why the Hindustani dedicate themselves to control the mind. Through our mind we can regulate our hormonal functions.

Midlife rheumatoid arthritis increases the risk of cognitive impairment two decades later: a population-based study.
The presence of joint disorders, especially RA, at midlife seems to be associated with a worse cognitive status later in life. Given the chronic inflammatory component of RA, this study suggests that inflammatory mechanisms may have an important role in increasing the risk of cognitive impairment and dementia/AD.

Jewish mystics say frankincense could raise an ordinary person to the spiritual level of prophecy, capable of seeing from one side of the earth to the other, but it is believed this only works if one’s heart is in tune with God.
The frankincense of the Bible and that which was given to Christ as a child probably did not originate in Israel. While some frankincense trees grew in the Valley of Levonah (Valley of Frankincense) of Israel, the source of the Biblical frankincense was most likely the Dhofar region of Oman where the finest frankincense in the world grew then and grows now. It’s botanical name is Boswellia sacra.
