What is it that seperates us from animals? Most of us would say a bigger brain, vision, ability to socialize. So what exactly is this about? Often, it is said that similar shapes serve similar purposes. What I'm gonna try now is to relate a part of human neurology to geometry and physics.
I'll be illustrating a small exemplum of the hindu mythology. It is believed that Lord Shiva has the ability to destroy the whole Universe with his 'Third Eye'. It is said that Lord Shiva could open up his third eye whenever he felt it was necessary.
Another example I would like to relate to regarding the term 'The Third Eye' is the movie 'Now You See Me'. The storyline is based on a principle that being ahead of your opponent and time is they triumph key to success. So what exactly is this concept of Third Eye?
In all these cases, the Pineal Gland has been referred to as the Third Eye.
The name third eye arises as a result of both, by virtue of its shape, as well as its function. The pineal gland's cross section vaguely resembles the shape of the human eye. Like stated above, similar shapes refers to similar function. Now, the question arises that how can something, situated amidst the brain see things around?
It offen happens with us that an incident we once dreamed of, turns out to be in real life in a exact manner as in the dream.(mind me, not similar. Exact!) The pineal gland is responsible for our fore-sight and vision. Often, vision and sight are considered similar whereas in reality they are totally different. I would rather club sight with eyes and vision with pineal gland.
In electronics, there exist few systems referred to as DAS( Data Acquisition Systems), which collect the data from the memory, analyze the data and come up to a conclusion after the analysis. So, the pineal gland can be rightly called as the DAS of our human body.
Might it be that those whom we know to have reached the state of Nirvana(say Lord Shiva, Gautam Buddha) had completely utilized their 'Third Eye'.
The very reason the world today is short on fore-sight is due to the present lifestyle. Consumption of fats, Smoking and fast food cause accumulation of fats on the outer layer of Pineal Gland hence hampering its working. This isnt a spontaneous process but a slow and long one.Maybe, the present world needs more vision than the sight it already has.
