I don't know if Robert has written something about the pineal gland, but there is an article about Basic Brain Anatomy and Theory of Consciousness in the website:
http://www.astraldynamics.com/search.as ... enceID=220

As to the pineal gland, it is known that it contains photoreceptors (light receptors), it works as an eye in some reptiles, and it is located in an area of the brain (in higher mammals) that receives no light, giving the idea that it's for detecting a type of light that we are not detecting with our 'regular' eyes. Of course, this is in the area of metaphysics.

As to the pituitary gland:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pituitary_gland
"The pituitary gland secretes hormones regulating homeostasis, including trophic hormones that stimulate other endocrine glands. It is functionally connected to the hypothalamus by the median eminence." In other words the pituitary gland controls all other glands and regulates things like growth and hormonal balance.
