Kundalini Gland
The muladhara chakra at the base of the spine is where kundalini is supposed to lie coiled awaiting to rise. Several factors led the ancients to this symbolic idea of the coiled serpent. First when kundalini does rise one of the initial pathways it takes seems to be around the spine between the two sympathetic trunks. The discharge of a double helix of energy can be felt rising up around the spine. Some people such as Gobi Krishna, call this a zigzag. For it appears that energy is flowing backwards and forwards up the ladder of the spine from ganglia to ganglia. I experienced this during a hypnogic vision around the time of my 1988 awakening. I imagine that energy is transmitted in this double helix fashion at the beginning of an awakening prior to the inner-conjunction through the sushumna nadi or central channel of the spine.
Although the traditions are focused on it, there is obviously no such thing as ejaculating up the spine. But the nerve energy is perhaps turned to flow its power back through the nerves to the spine. This is done through the inner kinesthetic sensing, directing the eye of the mind, and breathing. This redirection of nerve flow might be how the yogis prevent ejaculation while still having orgasm. It might "feel" as though there is ejaculation up the spine because the kundalini gland (coccygeal body) at the base of the coccyx is composed of smooth muscle and can pulsate like an ejaculation. Thus to a man it might appear that he is ejaculating up his spine. I have noticed a sense of throbbing (pumping sensation) at the coccyx that occurs at the start of an increase in kundalini flow.
The coccygeal body is an irregular, oval-shaped gland between the rectal wall and the tip of the tailbone or coccyx. This is known in Tantra as the Kundalini gland. During active kundalini one can often feel a pulsation in the sacrum, I suspect that this rhythmic movement might be the kundalini gland becoming active.
The coccygeal gland is fed by sympathetic (adrenergic) from the first two ganglion and by parasympathetic (cholinergic) nerves; and by the median sacral artery and vein, directly influencing the nervous system via chemical messages arising from the blood. It is several millimeters in diameter and is composted of epithelioid cells and smooth muscle cells. A study suggests its possible blood forming function and an immune-modulatory activity by the regulation of the sympathetic nervous system through noradrenegenic control. Removal of this gland creates nervous derangement.
Because it is nexus of all the various bodymind systems: hormonal, blood, sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves and the immune system, the kundalini gland is key to the homeostasis of the body and to shifting metabolism over to the metamorphic state. Further study could lead science to discover that the kundalini awakening could be initiated or maintained by stimulation of the coccygeal body and the subsequent increase in the noradrenegenic mechanism of the SNS. If further studies confirm the possible involvement of the coccygeal body in the regulation of sexuality, this may explain the immunosuppressive status related to the sexual repression as previously suggested by Wilhelm Reich.
Yoga has devised a wide variety of techniques to irritate and awaken this gland into activity: Including Mula Bandha (Root lock-contracting perineum and lower abdomen), Asvini Mudra (contracting the pubococcygeus muscle of perineum, as in kegel exercises), Tada Mudra--(knocking the buttocks upon the ground, sending rhythmic shock waves rippling up the spine) and rolling on a cotton ball placed under the tip of the tail bone. (Found in Ecstasy Through Tantra, by Dr John Mumford).
A study of anatomy defies the traditional idea of ejaculation of sexual “juices” up the spine, however the Nitric oxide and other neurotransmitters that are used in sex would be directly involved in an inner conjunction event. In fact the sex chemistry involved in an inner conjunction is many many times greater than that which facilitates sex itself. Although the entire body is flooded with sex and growth hormones during the peak in which spinal inner-conjunctions occur and this serves to rev up metabolism in which the energy can build to these intense phase lock situations...I still cannot see how sexual juices can enter into the cerebrospinal fluid. Instead I see the spinal fluid becoming supercharged with glutamate, Ca2+ and other ions along with Nitric oxide driving the maximim nerve activity. The fluid thus is superfluid and supercharged, and doesn't necessarily "shoot" up the spine, even though it feels like the force of 10,000 orgasms is blasting directly up the spine. However, the liquid probably does flow a little faster during the inner-conjunction event due to the increased electromagnetic field, and increased cilli movement of the tissue that moves cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) along (which is excited by the extra nutrition, and ions of fluid and nerve energy at the time.)
Hence the intense upward pressure of an inner conjunction is not caused by any fast moving ejaculation of liquid within the spine, so much as by increase energy in the nerves. For CSF is moved via hydrostatic pressure and cilli and is reputed to take 24 hours for a full cycle and is completely changed every 6-7 hours. Thus I see the amrita ejaculation of the fluid down the back of the throat more as a brain-ejaculation (see...Amrita Heart Connection)...rather than fluid that comes directly from the sex organs.
The ancients seem to be obsessed with thinking that kundalini originates at the base of the spine. Yet the awakening is one of the entire body down to subatomic...through a change in the energy generation system which may indeed tap zeropoint energy. Because the male religions like to put things in hierarchies with a start and a finish, they stack levels in a nice progression of consciousness up the spine. In the quantum age, this linear model can be seen only as an abstraction for the teaching of beginner students, that like to think there is a specific ladder of ascent which they only have to go from point A to point Z and they will be enlightened. The kundalini gland...does pulsate which may have lead the ancients to suspect an origin point at the bottom of the spine. But remember activity anywhere in the body has its correlation in the brain and the energetics of the entire body and EMF go into symptoms in any one area.
CAROTID GLANDS
U.G. Krishnamurti talks about the cobra effect of the neck puffing out during acute prana flow (hence the ancient Egyptian symbol). The "carotid glands" are a reddish-brown oval body, in the top of the neck just below the ears. It is similar in structure to the kundalini gland (coccygeal gland). It is known that oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations represent the main stimulus for the carotid body. Carbon monoxide as a gaseous neurotransmitter also appears to be involved in the regulation of chemosensors of carotid body which are regulated by molecular oxygen and inhibited by carbon monoxide.
The coccygeal and carotid glands seem to act as neutralizers of systemic poisons. The carotid gland cells produce dopamine, and this is significant to the understanding of their function.
"I do not want to be an exhibitionist, but you are doctors. There is something to the symbolism they have in India--the cobra. Yesterday was the new moon. The body is affected by everything that is happening around you. It is not separate from what is happening around you. Whatever is happening there is also happening here; there is only the physical response. This is affection. You can't prevent this, for the simple reason that the armor that you have built around yourself is destroyed [in the alchemy], so it is very vulnerable to everything that is happening there. With the phases of the moon--full moon, half moon, quarter moon--those swellings here take the shape of a cobra. Maybe the reason why some people have created all these images--Siva and all those kinds of things. But why should it take the shape of a cobra? I have asked many doctors why this swelling is here, but nobody could give me a satisfactory answer. I don't know if there are any glands or anything here." P.31, UG Krishnamurti, The Mystique of Enlightenment.
