The [[Thalamus]] is the large mass of gray matter in the dorsal part of the diencephalon of the brain with several functions such as relaying of sensory signals, including motor signals, to the cerebral cortex, and the regulation of consciousness, sleep, and alertness. <ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalamus Thalamus]</ref> | The [[Thalamus]] is the large mass of gray matter in the dorsal part of the diencephalon of the brain with several functions such as relaying of sensory signals, including motor signals, to the cerebral cortex, and the regulation of consciousness, sleep, and alertness.

The connection made between the Thalamus with the [[Fornix (neuroanatomy)|Fornix]] nerve fibers and Limbic system, are directly related to our emotional experiences, and the way we experience our emotions begins to open our heart intelligence and is the key to our [[HSP|higher sensory perception]]. | The connection made between the Thalamus with the [[Fornix (neuroanatomy)|Fornix]] nerve fibers and Limbic system, are directly related to our emotional experiences, and the way we experience our emotions begins to open our heart intelligence and is the key to our [[HSP|higher sensory perception]]. | ||
One of the key structures in the [[Brain]] that is physically changed through long-term [[Meditation]] is the [[Thalamus]]. It is the relay station for all of the sensory information that flows throughout the brain. So, whether the information comes in through our optic nerves, our ears, through tactile sensation, through smell, or through taste, every bit of data travels through the thalamus. The thalamus mediates to us our sense of what is and isn’t real. The Thalamus gives emotional meaning not only to what we take in through our senses, but also to our concepts of [[God]] and spirituality. | |||
The physical correlates of all sensations, thoughts, and emotions first cascade through the thalamus before being communicated to the other parts of the brain. Even the smallest degree of damage to this crucial part of the brain can negatively affect other brain areas. | |||
The central area in the brain which the thalamus occupies plays an important role in spiritual [[Awakening]]. As the body’s immense nerve bundles emerge from the spine and into the brainstem, they travel first through the thalamus before being distributed through the [[Corpus Callosum]] as a great multitude of nerve fibers branching up throughout the neocortex, along the crown of the head. This multi-branching of millions of neurons in part comprises the physical correlate of the crown chakra. Where the bundle of nerve fibers meets in the [[Thalamus]], are the pituitary gland, the hypothalamus, the pineal gland, and the third ventrical, also known as the Cave of Brahma. This central area is often associated with profound insight, spiritual vision, and higher perception. <ref.[https://www.iawaketechnologies.com/meditation-and-the-physical-transformation-of-the-brain-part-1/ Meditation]</ref> | |||
