Harmala Alkaloids And Penuel

From an email to my cousin.

I don't know if I ever told you about what happened to me in 1986 when I was in the hospital with a post operative bacterial spinal infection. The infection happened after a lumbar laminectomy at L 4/5(left side).

I was wanting Jacob's blessing and I had figured out that, if according to the esoteric Bible dictionary by anonymous, that Jacob's ladder was the spinal column, the place called Penuel where he got his blessing might be the pineal gland. 

According to Peter Stafford's psychedelics encyclopedia, harmala alkaloids are produced by the pineal gland and they can be secreted onto the pituitary gland producing the most powerful mystical experiences known to man. It's a post pubescent(usually male) glandular development. Ancient cultures, it was explained, referred to this as "The marriage of the sun and the moon".

So I sat on the edge of my hospital bed and pressed my thumbs and index fingers together in a meditation posture and I focused my energy(chi) on my pineal gland about the size of a marble and I closed my eyes and I slowly intoned the words "harmala alkaloids".

After about 12 times of saying  "harmala alkaloids", it felt like a 2 feet in diameter column of fresh water shot up through my body accompanied by an other worldly high delible symphony which began at the base of my spine with the sound of something like a tumult of 50 bass drums.

The music rushed up through my body with the sensation of the water. The instruments that I was hearing following the bass drums up until to my heart area were not any instruments that I have ever heard before. It was like a giant uplifting powerful whoosh of otherworldly symphonics.

When the symphony reached my heart it sounded like 8 cathedral bells rang out for 20-30 seconds like when they select a new Pope in Rome at the Vatican(where they use only 1 bell it says and it sounds for 5 to 15 min.). This was followed by what seemed like 10 violins, then harps and then sitars as the music reached my cervical spine and neck region.

Even though this was the most powerful experience that I have ever had, I would have never expected to hear sitars. I've never heard sitars in a symphony. I call this type of sensory audio hallucination a "Shava" and it would seem that Rome ripped off the sounding of the cathedral bells, as they did with much of teachings and practices of Christianity, from the various cultures that they vanquished. Par for the course.

I'd like to be able to see what was in the library of Alexandria.

This(musical symphony) ended with mystical chimes in my head. The music was over the top and it was triumphant, victorious and joyful. Tears of joy and relief squirted out of my tear ducts horizontally like squirt guns.

Every trace of pain and discomfort was completely and absolutely alleviated and I had the feeling that I was eternal.

The experience changed me and for a while, until after I got back to work, and I felt like I didn't even want to step on a flower. I guess that is what is referred to as "Ahisma"(harmlessness toward all).

On line it says that  there is no scientific proof that indicates that harmala alkaloids are produced by the pineal gland.

I beg to differ.

From now until the time that I die I am going to try to duplicate and have that experience again. I was able to do it once. I should able to do it again. It's been 39 years. I feel like I could really use it. You feel healthy and wonderful inside. Everyone should be able to have the experience. Feeling eternal feels good. 

At least I have a goal.

And it was all completely natural. Stafford argues that the effects of substances are all the result of natural chemicals released by our bodies which various substances cause to be released. If there was any way to make what I did illegal they probably would. 

It felt like I had found the fountain of youth. Some stories tell of Indians telling Ponce De Leon to "Go north". Maybe they meant to go to the pineal gland.

 

When this happened I was only 27. I  didn't even raise my kundalini(spinal energy) until I was in my early 30's. Now my overdeveloped kundalini, high libido, uncooperative chakras and peripheral, visceral and autonomic neuropathy make meditating challenging. My nervous systems seem to be connected, are unruly and a tad bit haywire. I can truthfully tell people that I have 1 nerve left and they are on it.
