There is time/space change due to mental/emotional/spiritual disposition and then this (eventually) effects space/time body (associated gland). You may affect a heightened sensitivity (conscious relationship) or reorientation to a center by fasting or eating, and that new attention may then cause activity. However, in all cases it was not actually the food/drug, but work in consciousness which the new attention possibly afforded.
My understanding is that the endocrine system is what connects the physical body to the chakra system.
Quote:According to Cayce, these glands are the point of contact among all our three bodies; in these glands, we can experience the soul and spirit, and through them, these elements can exercise influence the physical vehicle...The glands...allow not only the production of the potential physical energy needed by the body for its metabolic functions, but also cooperate in the production of energy to be directed to the mental and the spiritual bodies. Cayce believed that the endocrine system was a pathway to reach and understand God.
The idea of thinking about the glands as connective points that link us with our spirit is not really a novelty. For the philosopher Plato, the thymus was an organ that was part of the soul...It is through these amazing mini-powerhouse-chakras that our physical body receives the energy to perform healing inside of itself. Our mental attitudes are not detached from our physical behavior... everything is influenced by our endocrine system because they act directly over our sensorial system.
...In the Hindu tradition, there are other important organs pertaining of all the human bodies; the chakras. The chakras are the keys for the human personality, and they act just as a gland, with precise function to process, and metabolize energy and keep it distributed through the entire system. Each one of these centers detains a colorful vibration, one of the four elements, an astrological sign and the influence of one planet...The Pituitary and Pineal glands are the highest glands located inside our bodies. They are related to the Light that can develop only though silence.
