The pineal gland, which is found in the middle of the brain, was referred to by Renee Descartes as the "Seat of the Soul." The pineal gland's primary job is to gather information from the environment about the condition of the light-dark cycle and transmit it so that the hormone melatonin can be produced and secreted. The pineal was known to ancient traditions, who hid its mysteries in their literature. They were aware of the pineal's importance in our spiritual growth and inter-being communication. However, many people are unaware of the underlying abilities associated with an open pineal due to our increasingly toxic environment.
