Name Root:
pân krátos > Pankrátios
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Pankrátios (Παγκράτιος),” composed of two elements: “pân (πᾶν)” (always, all, every, each, whole) plus “krátos ‎(κρᾰ́τος)” (might, strength, dominion, power). In turn, the name means “all power, very powerful, omnipotent.” It was originally an epithet of Zeus. Saint Pancras or Pancratius (289–304) was a young Christian who was martyred at the age of fourteen in Rome during Diocletian's reign and is venerated as a saint by the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church. Saint Pancras is one of the so-called saints of ice, with St. Servatius, San Mamerto, and St. Boniface of Tarsus. Pankration was a martial art introduced into the Greek Olympic Games in 648 BC and founded as a blend of boxing and wrestling but with almost no rules save disallowing biting and gouging of the opponent’s eyes.

Chakra "Pineal Gland"

The Pineal Gland is about the size of a pea, and is in the center of the brain in a tiny cave behind and above the pituitary gland which lies a little behind the root of the nose. It is located directly behind the eyes, attached to the third ventricle. This chakra is also known as the upper dan tien. The ninth chakra is an interesting chakra in that it is in this chakra that all the Christ abilities lie dormant, waiting to be released and used in the outer and inner worlds. The shift in focus at this time is toward that Christ energy and the accompanying abilities that go along with it. Hence, a great deal of work and energy is now being sent into physical reality to help the individual open up and expand this energy center.
