Higher Gland Synchronization

January 25, 1990

This kriya causes the pituitary gland to connect with the pineal gland, synchronizing the higher glands. It stimulates the reproductive glands and moves energy from the Second Chakra (Svadhisthana Chakra) to the Seventh Chakra (Sahasrara Chakra). This can help you be aware of all environments and deal with them expertly.
