Piezoelectric crystals in the center of the brain
A pea-sized organ that the ancients called the 'Third Eye.' Modern science discovers: It contains crystals that respond to electromagnetic fields.
Modern science calls it the pineal gland - and discovers something strange inside it.
In 2002, a team led by Simon Baconnier examined human pineal glands under an electron microscope. What they found was unexpected:
Calcite microcrystals - tiny mineral structures embedded in the tissue of the gland.
| Property | Measurement |
|---|---|
| Composition | Calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) - calcite |
| Size | 2-20 micrometers |
| Shape | Rhombohedra and hexagonal prisms |
| Distribution | Concentrated around the lumen |
| Presence | In all examined glands |
| Piezoelectricity | Verified |
The crystals are not a malfunction. They are not calcification in the negative sense. They are structured and consistent - as if they serve a purpose.
What makes the pineal gland even more remarkable: It is not protected by the blood-brain barrier.
| Property | Significance |
|---|---|
| No blood-brain barrier protection | Direct access to blood contents |
| High blood flow | Only the kidneys have higher flow per gram |
| Central position | Geometric center of the brain |
Most brain regions are isolated from the bloodstream by the blood-brain barrier - a protective mechanism against toxins and pathogens. The pineal gland is one of the few exceptions. It has direct access to everything that circulates in the blood.
Why would an organ that allegedly only produces melatonin need such high blood flow - and at the same time contain piezoelectric crystals?
Calcite is piezoelectric. This means:
| Direction | Effect |
|---|---|
| Pressure → Electricity | Mechanical deformation generates electrical voltage |
| Electricity → Movement | Electrical field deforms the crystal |
The same principle is used by:
The pineal gland contains natural piezoelectric crystals - in the center of the brain.
The officially recognized function of the pineal gland is melatonin production:
| Aspect | Details |
|---|---|
| Hormone | Melatonin |
| Function | Regulates sleep-wake rhythm |
| Trigger | Lack of light (darkness) |
| Neurotransmitter connection | Serotonin → Melatonin |
The gland responds to light - although it sits deep in the brain and has no direct light access. The information comes through the retinohypothalamic tract - a direct nerve connection from the retina.
In complete darkness - over longer periods - something strange happens:
| Phase | Duration | Biochemistry |
|---|---|---|
| Normal | Night | Melatonin production |
| Extended | 3-7 days darkness | Elevated melatonin concentration |
| Intense | 7+ days | DMT precursors detectable |
The pineal gland produces not only more melatonin in complete darkness - it begins to synthesize related molecules, including precursors of dimethyltryptamine (DMT). This molecule is known for its role in near-death experiences and altered consciousness states.
But the calcite crystals have nothing to do with melatonin production. Their function remains unclear.
| Culture | Name | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| Hinduism | Ajna Chakra | "Command center" - higher consciousness |
| Buddhism | Urna | Wisdom, spiritual perception |
| Egypt | Eye of Horus | Protection, royal power |
| Taoism | Celestial Eye | Access to higher realms |
| Greek | Cyclopean Eye | Inner vision |
| Christianity | Eye of Providence | Omniscient God |
French philosopher René Descartes (1596-1650) was fascinated by the pineal gland. He called it the "seat of the soul" - the place where mind and body interact.
[Descartes]"There is in the brain a small gland in which the soul exercises its functions [...] This gland is the pineal gland."
Descartes was criticized for this. Modern science has refuted his specific theory. But the question remains open: Why did so many cultures consider this region important?
Resonance theory postulates: The pineal gland could be a biological receiver for electromagnetic frequencies.
| Component | Function |
|---|---|
| Calcite crystals | Piezoelectric sensors |
| Nerve fibers | Signal transmission to brain |
| Melatonin production | "Byproduct" or frequency-modulated |
| Position in brain | Central, protected, optimally placed |
The Schumann resonance (7.83 Hz) and its harmonics lie in the range of brain waves:
| Frequency range | Brain waves | State |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5-4 Hz | Delta | Deep sleep, regeneration |
| 4-8 Hz | Theta | Meditation, REM |
| 7.83 Hz | Theta-alpha boundary | Schumann base frequency |
| 8-13 Hz | Alpha | Relaxed wakefulness |
| 13-30 Hz | Beta | Active thinking |
The Schumann resonance falls exactly in the transition range between theta and alpha - a state associated with meditation and deep relaxation.
An often overlooked aspect: The human body consists of approximately 70% water. And this water is not simply a liquid - it is structured cell water.
| Property | Significance for resonance |
|---|---|
| 70% water content | Large resonance volume |
| Structured cell water | Crystalline properties |
| Electrical conductivity | Signal transmission |
| Liquid crystal | Frequency receiver |
If the pineal gland were a receiver, then the water-rich body would be the resonance body - the medium that would transmit received frequencies throughout the entire organism.

Official science has no explanation for these crystals. They are not pathological - they are normal. They are not random - they are structured.
Why does an organ that regulates sleep rhythm contain piezoelectric crystals?
Resonance theory offers a possible answer: They could be sensors for frequencies.
Conventional science says: We don't know.
Both positions are honest. One is safer. The other is more interesting.
The hardware exists - piezoelectric crystals in the center of our brain. But an antenna is useless without a signal. The next subchapter poses the ultimate question: What if "Eden" was not a place, but a state? A state of optimal frequency harmony - and we have lost it?
The sender and the receiver
The hardware exists. The question is only: Is it still receiving something - or has the sender gone silent?
