The connection point for Sahasrara is regarded as the fontanelle ‘soft spot’ on a newborn baby’s head. When this spot closes up, the baby’s awareness of the infinite universe and super-consciousness becomes locked in.

Sahasrara, in combination with the endocrine glands, focuses energetic information coming through the auric field at the crown of the head. In recent years the study of psychoneuroendocrinology has begun to bring the truths of ancient yoga understandings and modern scientific disciplines together.
