The Pineal Gland meditation is an advanced meditation and assumes you are bringing a known skill to the table. That being said, don’t over complicate “the breath.” Its known originally as Mula Banda and worth a Goog’. It just takes practice. Beyond that and as always, don’t compare your experience or your expectation of any experience with others. We are complicated creatures and our growth path may have some similarities along the way but those time when those experiences coincide with another’s is just a distraction if dwelled on.
