Once we have found the treasure buried in the experience, it has fulfilled its mission and can depart. As long as we continue to hate, resent or run away from these experiences they will intensify and repeat themselves like a dark comedic formula movie. What you resist persists.
To conquer the recidivism of these old familiar patterns, we must turn inward and ask, “What is the message in this waking dream?” What aspects of my personality are symbolized by these people, objects, animals or actions etc…? Symbols are the language of the soul. Curiosity with emotional detachment and mindful reflection are key factors in the decoding process. This is the first step on the path to freedom.
What is typically called a minor or major crisis is also a waking dream. Each of these emotionally charged experiences mirrors a fearful shadow aspect of ourselves. Once we discover the origin of the fear and pain that are being suppressed it ceases to have control over us. The more intense the situation, the greater the need to learn and appreciate the lesson. We must examine our belief systems periodically and do some mental and emotional house cleaning. Energy follows thought, especially emotionally charged thought. We magnetize what ever we are focused on. If we focus on things we don’t want, we will draw more of that into our lives. Worry and anxiety can be defined as negative prayer. Affirmations, on the other hand, will magnetize and “make firm” that which we want more of.
Once you acknowledge that you are co-creating your reality and take responsibility for your life, the paradigm of your life will shift. The energy will move. The music from that broken record, playing in your head will cease. The needle will be kicked out of that well-worn groove and play a more peaceful tune. No matter what the situation, if we can learn to accept it, as it is, trusting that it serves our highest good, we will be free to move forward on our dream quest.
I invite you to repeat this affirmation for a month to “kick start” a healthy new mindset.
“I now trust the process of life to take me only to my highest good”.

]]>After my second child was born (19 years ago) I developed a hiatal hernia and my digestion continued to get worse and worse. The traditional Western medicine prescribed to me was worthless and left me feeling hopeless. Finally, in 1995, I saw the light by researching alternative options. The first book I read that made a difference was Perfect Digestion by Deepak Chopra. I have known about “food combining” and eating an alkaline diet for years. The raw phase is relatively new for me. I have been eating 100% -80% raw for 10 months now and I love it. Himalayan Goji juice and now the new formula GoChi, continues to be an important part of my regiment. Now that I have the alkaline ionized water from my Ionways “Athena” it is even easier. I’m also a green smoothies fanatic. Read, Green for Life by Victoria Boutenko, if you want a brilliant introduction to eating raw and making green smoothies. The bottom line is, my digestion is stronger than ever. I don’t have the bloating and gas problems that are associated with poor digestion either. I have even been able to add raw Vidalia onion back into my diet. Wow!
I digress~ back to the raw and vegan protein thread. Sometimes people ask me, “Where do you get your protein?” I understand why they ask because most of us were raised in a society preprogrammed with the idea that protein comes only from meat, dairy, and eggs. With a little research (thanks to search engines and the Internet) anyone can see that there is plenty of protein in plants
If we are consuming a wide variety of vegetables, especially dark green leafy vegetables, and supplementing with grasses, we are getting plenty of all the essential amino acids.
Vegetables contain all the amino acids (the building blocks of protein) our bodies need. Not every vegetable has every one (amino acids), so eating a variety is key.
Our bodies have a free amino acid pool, which contributes about seventy grams of protein daily. We all have these protein reserves. There are people out there in the world with protein deficiencies but if you are reading this article I’m guessing it’s not you.

Introduction
I’m Dick Sutphen and this tape is a studio-recorded, expanded version of a talk I delivered at the World Congress of Professional Hypnotists Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada. Although the tape carries a copyright to protect it from unlawful duplication for sale by other companies, in this case, I invite individuals to make copies and give them to friends or anyone in a position to communicate this information.
Although I’ve been interviewed about the subject on many local and regional radio and TV talk shows, large-scale mass communication appears to be blocked, since it could result in suspicion or investigation of the very media presenting it or the sponsors that support the media. Some government agencies do not want this information generally known. Nor do the Born-Again Christian movement, cults, and many human-potential trainings.
Everything I will relate only exposes the surface of the problem. I don’t know how the misuse of these techniques can be stopped. I don’t think it is possible to legislate against that which often cannot be detected; and if those who legislate are using these techniques, there is little hope of affecting laws to govern usage. I do know that the first step to initiate change is to generate interest. In this case, that will probably only result from an underground effort.
In talking about this subject, I am talking about my own business. I know it, and I know how effective it can be. I produce hypnosis and subliminal tapes and, in some of my seminars, I use conversion tactics to assist participants to become independent and self-sufficient. But, anytime I use these techniques, I point out that I am using them, and those attending have a choice to participate or not. They also know what the desired result of participation will be.
So, to begin, I want to state the most basic of all facts about brainwashing: In the entire history of man, no one has ever been brainwashed and realized, or believed, that he had been brainwashed. Those who have been brainwashed will usually passionately defend their manipulators, claiming they have simply been “shown the light” …or have been transformed in miraculous ways.

The Birth of Conversion:
Brainwashing in Christian Revivalism in 1735.
Conversion is a “nice” word for brainwashing…and any study of brainwashing has to begin with a study of Christian revivalism in eighteenth century America. Apparently, Jonathan Edwards accidentally discovered the techniques during a religious crusade in 1735 in Northampton, Massachusetts. By inducing guilt and acute apprehension and by increasing the tension, the “sinners” attending his revival meetings would break down and completely submit. Technically, what Edwards was doing was creating conditions that wipe the brain slate clean so that the mind accepts new programming. The problem was that the new input was negative. He would tell them, “You’re a sinner! You’re destined for hell!”
As a result, one person committed suicide and another attempted suicide. And the neighbors of the suicidal converts related that they, too, were affected so deeply that, although they had found “eternal salvation,” they were obsessed with a diabolical temptation to end their own lives.
Once a preacher, cult leader, manipulator or authority figure creates the brain phase to wipe the brain-slate clean, his subjects are wide open. New input, in the form of suggestion, can be substituted for their previous ideas. Because Edwards didn’t turn his message positive until the end of the revival, many accepted the negative suggestions and acted, or desired to act, upon them.
Charles J. Finney was another Christian revivalist who used the same techniques four years later in mass religious conversions in New York. The techniques are still being used today by Christian revivalists, cults, human-potential trainings, some business rallies, and the United States Armed services…to name just a few.
Let me point out here that I don’t think most revivalist preachers realize or know they are using brainwashing techniques. Edwards simply stumbled upon a technique that really worked, and others copied it and have continued to copy it for over two hundred years. And the more sophisticated our knowledge and technology become, the more effective the conversion. I feel strongly that this is one of the major reasons for the increasing rise in Christian fundamentalism, especially the televised variety, while most of the orthodox religions are declining.
The Three Brain Phases: The Pavlovian Explanation
The Christians may have been the first to successfully formulate brainwashing, but we have to look to Pavlov, the Russian scientist, for a technical explanation. In the early 1900s, his work with animals opened the door to further investigations with humans. After the revolution in Russia, Lenin was quick to see the potential of applying Pavlov’s research to his own ends.
Three distinct and progressive states of transmarginal inhibition were identified by Pavlov. The first is the equivalent phase, in which the brain gives the same response to both strong and weak stimuli. The second is the paradoxical phase, in which the brain responds more actively to weak stimuli than to strong. And the third is the ultra-paradoxical phase, in which conditioned responses and behavior patterns turn from positive to negative or from negative to positive.
With the progression through each phase, the degree of conversion becomes more effective and complete. The way to achieve conversion are many and varied, but the usual first step in religious or political brainwashing is to work on the emotions of an individual or group until they reach an abnormal level of anger, fear, exitement, or nervous tension.
The progressive result of this mental condition is to impair judgement and increase suggestibility. The more this condition can be maintained or intensified, the more it compounds. Once catharsis, or the first brain phase, is reached, the complete mental takeover becomes easier. Existing mental programming can be replaced with new patterns of thinking and behavior.
Other often-used physiological weapons to modify normal brain functions are fasting, radical or high sugar diets, physical discomforts, regulation of breathing, mantra chanting in meditation, the disclosure of awesome mysteries, special lighting and sound effects, programmed response to incense, or intoxicating drugs.
The same results can be obtained in contemporary psychiatric treatment by electric shock treatments and even by purposely lowering a person’s blood sugar level with insulin injections.
Before I talk about exactly how some of the techniques are applied, I want to point out that hypnosis and conversion tactics are two distinctly different things–and that conversion techniques are far more powerful. However, the two are often mixed…with powerful results.
How Revivalist Preachers Work
If you’d like to see a revivalist preacher at work, there are probably several in your city. Go to the church or tent early and sit in the rear, about three-quarters of the way back. Most likely repetitive music will be played while the people come in for the service. A repetitive beat, ideally ranging from 45 to 72 beats per minute (a rhythm close to the beat of the human heart), is very hypnotic and can generate an eyes-open altered state of consciousness in a very high percentage of people. And, once you are in an alpha state, you are at least 25 times as suggestible as you would be in full beta consciousness. The music is probably the same for every service, or incorporates the same beat, and many of the people will go into an altered state almost immediately upon entering the sanctuary. Subconsciously, they recall their state of mind from previous services and respond according to the post-hypnotic programming.
Watch the people waiting for the service to begin. Many will exhibit external signs of trance–body relaxation and slightly dilated eyes. Often, they begin swaying back and forth with their hands in the air while sitting in their chairs. Next, the assistant pastor will probably come out. He usually speaks with a pretty good “voice roll.”
The “Voice Roll” Technique
A “voice roll” is a patterned, paced style used by hypnotists when inducing a trance. It is also used by many lawyers, several of whom are highly trained hypnotists, when they desire to entrench a point firmly in the minds of the jurors. A voice roll can sound as if the speaker were talking to the beat of a metronome or it may sound as though he were emphasizing every word in a monotonous, patterned style. The words will usually be delivered at the rate of 45 to 60 beats per minute, maximizing the hypnotic effect.
The Build-up Process: Inducing Altered States
Now the assistant pastor begins the “build-up” process. He induces an altered state of consciousness and/or begins to generate the excitement and the expectations of the audience. Next, a group of young women in “sweet and pure” chiffon dresses might come out to sing a song. Gospel songs are great for building excitement and involvement. In the middle of the song, one of the girls might be “smitten by the spirit” and fall down or react as if possessed by the Holy Spirit. This very effectively increases the intensity in the room. At this point, hypnosis and conversion tactics are being mixed. And the result is the audience’s attention span is now totally focused upon the communication while the environment becomes more exciting or tense.
Assured Continuation: Fleecing the Flock
Right about this time, when an eyes-open mass-induced alpha mental state has been achieved, they will usually pass the collection plate or basket. In the background, a 45-beat-per-minute voice roll from the assistant preacher might exhort, “Give to God…Give to God…Give to God….” And the audience does give. God may not get the money, but his already-wealthy representative will.
Bonding by Fear and Suggestion
Next, the fire-and-brimstone preacher will come out. He induces fear and increases the tension by talking about “the devil,” “going to hell,” or the forthcoming Armegeddon.
In the last such rally I attended, the preacher talked about the blood that would soon be running out of every faucet in the land. He was also obsessed with a “bloody axe of God,” which everyone had seen hanging above the pulpit the previous week. I have no doubt that everyone saw it–the power of suggestion given to hundreds of people in hypnosis assures that at least 10 to 25 percent would see whatever he suggested they see.
Testimony: Creating Community Spirit
In most revivalist gatherings, “testifying” or “witnessing” usually follows the fear-based sermon. People from the audience come up on stage and relate their stories. “I was crippled and now I can walk!” “I had arthritis and now it’s gone!” It is a psychological manipulation that works. After listening to numerous case histories of miraculous healings, the average guy in the audience with a minor problem is sure he can be healed. The room is charged with fear, guilt, intense excitement, and expectations.
Miracles
Now those who want to be healed are frequently lined up around the edge of the room, or they are told to come down to the front. The preacher might touch them on the head firmly and scream, “Be healed!” This releases the psychic energy and, for many, catharsis results. Catharsis is a purging of repressed emotions. Individuals might cry, fall down or even go into spasms. And if catharsis is effected, they stand a chance of being healed. In catharsis (one of the three brain phases mentioned earlier), the brain-slate is temporarily wiped clean and the new suggestion is accepted.
For some, the healing may be permanent. For many, it will last four days to a week, which is, incidentally, how long a hypnotic suggestion given to a somnambulistic subject will usually last. Even if the healing doesn’t last, if they come back every week, the power of suggestion may continually override the problem…or sometimes, sadly, it can mask a physical problem which could prove to be very detrimental to the individual in the long run.
The Grey Area of Legitimacy
I’m not saying that legitimate healings do not take place. They do. Maybe the individual was ready to let go of the negativity that caused the problem in the first place; maybe it was the work of God. Yet I contend that it can be explained with existing knowledge of brain/mind function.
A Game in Which the Rules Keep Changing
The techniques and staging will vary from church to church. Many use “speaking in tongues” to generate catharsis in some while the spectacle creates intense excitement in the observers.
The use of hypnotic techniques by religions is sophisticated, and professionals are assuring that they become even more effective. A man in Los Angeles is designing, building, and reworking a lot of churches around the country. He tells ministers what they need and how to use it. This man’s track record indicates that the congregation and the monetary income will double if the minister follows his instructions. He admits that about 80 percent of his efforts are in the sound system and lighting.
Powerful sound and the proper use of lighting are of primary importance in inducing an altered state of consciousnes–I’ve been using them for years in my own seminars. However, my participants are fully aware of the process and what they can expect as a result of their participation.
Six Conversion Techniques
Cults and human-potential organizations are always looking for new converts. To attain them, they must also create a brain-phase. And they often need to do it within a short space of time–a weekend, or maybe even a day. The following are the six primary techniques used to generate the conversion.
Isolation Intimidation, Deprivation and Indoctrination
The meeting or training takes place in an area where participants are cut off from the outside world. This may be any place: a private home, a remote or rural setting, or even a hotel ballroom where the participants are allowed only limited bathroom usage. In human-potential trainings, the controllers will give a lengthy talk about the importance of “keeping agreements” in life. The participants are told that if they don’t keep agreements, their life will never work. It’s a good idea to keep agreements, but the controllers are subverting a positive human value for selfish purposes. The participants vow to themselves and their trainer that they will keep their agreements. Anyone who does not will be intimidated into agreement or forced to leave. The next step is to agree to complete training, thus assuring a high percentage of conversions for the organizations.
They will usually have to agree not to take drugs, smoke, and sometimes not to eat…or they are given such short meal breaks that it creates tension. The real reason for the agreements is to alter internal chemistry, which generates anxiety and hopefully causes at least a slight malfunction of the nervous system, which in turn increases the conversion potential.
The “Sell It By Zealot” Technique.
Before the gathering is complete, the agreements will be used to ensure that the new converts go out and find new participants. They are intimidated into agreeing to do so before they leave. Since the importance of keeping agreements is so high on their priority list, the converts will twist the arms of everyone they know, attempting to talk them into attending a free introductory session offered at a future date by the organization. The new converts are zealots. In fact, the inside term for merchandising the largest and most successful human-potential training is, “sell it by zealot!”
At least a million people are graduates and a good percentage have been left with a mental activation button that assures their future loyalty and assistance if the guru figure or organization calls. Think about the potential political implications of hundreds of thousands of zealots programmed to campaign for their guru.
Be wary of an organization of this type that offers follow-up sessions after the seminar. Follow-up sessions might be weekly meetings or inexpensive seminars given on a regular basis which the organization will attempt to talk you into taking–or any regularly scheduled event used to maintain control. As the early Christian revivalists found, long-term control is dependent upon a good follow-up system.
Wearing Down Resistance
Alright. Now, let’s look at the second tip-off that indicates conversion tactics are being used. A schedule is maintained that causes physical and mental fatigue. This is primarily accomplished by long hours in which the participants are given no opportunity for relaxation or reflection.
Increasing Tension
The third tip-off: techniques used to increase the tension in the room or environment.
Introducing Uncertainty About Identity
Number four: Uncertainty. I could spend hours relating various techniques to increase tension and generate uncertainty. Basically, the participants are concerned about being “put on the spot” or encountered by the trainers, guilt feelings are played upon, participants are tempted to verbally relate their innermost secrets to the other participants or forced to take part in activities that emphasize removing their masks. One of the most successful human-potential seminars forces the participants to stand on a stage in front of the entire audience while being verbally attacked by the trainers. A public opinion poll, conducted a few years ago, showed that the number one most-fearful situation an individual could encounter is to speak to an audience. It ranked above window washing outside the 85th floor of an office building.
So you can imagine the fear and tension this situation generates within the participants. Many faint, but most cope with the stress by mentally going away. They literally go into an alpha state, which automatically makes them many times as suggestible as they normally are. And another loop of the downward spiral into conversion is successfully effected.
Jargon
The fifth clue that conversion tactics are being used is the introduction of jargon–new terms that have meaning only to the “insiders” who participate. Vicious language is also frequently used, purposely, to make participants uncomfortable.
Lack of Humor: No Release, No Resistance
The final tip-off is that there is no humor in the communications…at least until the participants are converted. Then, merry-making and humor are highly desirable as symbols of the new joy the participants have supposedly “found.”
Not Always a Bad Thing
I’m not saying that good does not result from participation in such gatherings. It can and does. But I contend it is important for people to know what has happened and to be aware that continual involvement may not be in their best interest.
Over the years, I’ve conducted professional seminars to teach people to be hypnotists, trainers, and counselors. I’ve had many of those who conduct trainings and rallies come to me and say, “I’m here because I know that what I’m doing works, but I don’t know why.” After showing them how and why, many have gotten out of the business or have decided to approach it differently or in a much more loving and supportive manner.
Many of these trainers have become personal friends, and it scares us all to have experienced the power of one person with a microphone and a room full of people. Add a little charisma and you can count on a high percentage of conversions. The sad truth is that a high percentage of people want to give away their power–they are true “believers”!
Cults: A Captive Course in Stockholm Syndrome
Cult gatherings or human-potential trainings are an ideal environment to observe first-hand what is technically called the “Stockholm Syndrome.” This is a situation in which those who are intimidated, controlled, or made to suffer, begin to love, admire, and even sometimes sexually desire their controllers or captors.
But let me inject a word of warning here: If you think you can attend such gatherings and not be affected, you are probably wrong. A perfect example is the case of a woman who went to Haiti on a Guggenheim Fellowship to study Haitian Voodoo. In her report, she related how the music eventually induced uncontrollable bodily movement and an altered state of consciousness. Although she understood the process and thought herself above it, when she began to feel herself become vulnerable to the music, she attempted to fight it and turned away. Anger or resistance almost always assures conversion. A few moments later she was possessed by the music and began dancing in a trance around the Voodoo meeting house. A brain phase had been induced by the music and excitement, and she awoke feeling reborn.
The Only Hope of Immunity
The only hope of attending such gatherings without being affected is to be a Buddha and allow no positive or negative emotions to surface. Few people are capable of such detachment.
The US Marines as a Brainwashing Cult
Before I go on, let’s go back to the six tip-offs to conversion. I want to mention the United States Government and military boot camp. The Marine Corps talks about breaking men down before “rebuilding” them as new men–as marines! Well, that is exactly what they do, the same way a cult breaks its people down and rebuilds them as happy flower sellers on your local street corner. Every one of the six conversion techniques are used in boot camp. Considering the needs of the military, I’m not making a judgement as to whether that is good or bad. IT IS A fact that the men are effectively brainwashed. Those who won’t submit must be discharged or spend much of their time in the brig.
Steps in the Decognition Process
Once the initial conversion is effected, cults, armed services, and similar groups cannot have cynicism among their members. Members must respond to commands and do as they are told, otherwise they are dangerous to the organizational control. This is normally accomplished as a three-step ˜ Decognition Process.
Alertness reduction
Step One is alertness reduction: The controllers cause the nervous system to malfunction, making it difficult to distinguish between fantasy and reality. This can be accomplished in several ways. poor diet is one; watch out for Brownies and Koolaid. The sugar throws the nervous system off. More subtle is the “spiritual diet” used by many cults. They eat only vegetables and fruits; without the grounding of grains, nuts, seeds, dairy products, fish or meat, an individual becomes mentally “spacey.” Inadequate sleep is another primary way to reduce alertness, especially when combined with long hours of work or intense physical activity. Also, being bombarded with intense and unique experiences achieves the same result.
Programmed Confusion
Step Two is programmed confusion: You are mentally assaulted while your alertness is being reduced as in Step One. This is accomplished with a deluge of new information, lectures, discussion groups, encounters or one-to-one processing, which usually amounts to the controller bombarding the individual with questions. During this phase of decognition, reality and illusion often merge and perverted logic is likely to be accepted.
Thought Stopping
Step Three is thought stopping: Techniques are used to cause the mind to go “flat.” These are altered-state-of-consciousness techniques that initially induce calmness by giving the mind something simple to deal with and focusing awareness. The continued use brings on a feeling of elation and eventually hallucination. The result is the reduction of thought and eventually, if used long enough, the cessation of all thought and withdrawal from everyone and everything except that which the controllers direct. The takeover is then complete. It is important to be aware that when members or participants are instructed to use “thought-stopping” techniques, they are told that they will benefit by so doing: they will become “better soldiers” or “find enlightenment.”
Thought Stopping Techniques
Marching
There are three primary techniques used for thought stopping. The first is marching: the thump, thump, thump beat literally generates self-hypnosis and thus great susceptibility to suggestion.
Meditation
The second thought stopping technique is meditation. If you spend an hour to an hour and a half a day in meditation, after a few weeks, there is a great probability that you will not return to full beta consciousness. You will remain in a fixed state of alpha for as long as you continue to meditate. I’m not saying this is bad–if you do it yourself. It may be very beneficial. But it is a fact that you are causing your mind to go flat. I’ve worked with meditators on an EEG machine and the results are conclusive: the more you meditate, the flatter your mind becomes until, eventually and especially if used to excess or in combination with decognition, all thought ceases. Some spiritual groups see this as nirvana–which is bullshit. It is simply a predictable physiological result. And if heaven on earth is non-thinking and non-involvement, I really question why we are here.
Chanting
The third thought-stopping technique is chanting, and often chanting in meditation. “Speaking in tongues” could also be included in this category.
All three-stopping techniques produce an altered state of consciousness. This may be very good if you are controlling the process, for you also control the input. I personally use at least one self-hypnosis programming session every day and I know how beneficial it is for me. But you need to know if you use these techniques to the degree of remaining continually in alpha that, although you’ll be very mellow, you’ll also be more suggestible.
True Believers and Mass Movements
Before ending this section on conversion, I want to talk about the people who are most susceptible to it and about Mass Movements. I am convinced that at least a third of the population is what Eric Hoffer calls “true believers.” They are joiners and followers…people who want to give away their power. They look for answers, meaning, and enlightenment outside themselves.
Hoffer, who wrote “The True Believer”, a classic on mass movements, says, “true believers are not intent on bolstering and advancing a cherished self, but are those craving to be rid of unwanted self. They are followers, not because of a desire for self-advancement, but because it can satisfy their passion for self-renunciation!” Hoffer also says that true believers “are eternally incomplete and eternally insecure”!
I know this from my own experience. In my years of communicating concepts and conducting trainings, I have run into them again and again. All I can do is attempt to show them that the only thing to seek is the True Self within. Their personal answers are to be found there and there alone. I communicate that the basics of spirituality are self-responsibility and self-actualization. But most of the true believers just tell me that I’m not spiritual and go looking for someone who will give them the dogma and structure they desire.
Never underestimate the potential danger of these people. They can easily be molded into fanatics who will gladly work and die for their holy cause. It is a substitute for their lost faith in themselves and offers them as a substitute for individual hope. The Moral Majority is made up of true believers. All cults are composed of true believers. You’ll find them in politics, churches, businesses, and social cause groups. They are the fanatics in these organizations.
Mass Movements will usually have a charismatic leader. The followers want to convert others to their way of living or impose a new way of life–if necessary, by legislating laws forcing others to their view, as evidenced by the activities of the Moral Majority. This means enforcement by guns or punishment, for that is the bottomline in law enforcement.
A common hatred, enemy, or devil is essential to the success of a mass movement. The Born-Again Christians have Satan himself, but that isn’t enough–they’ve added the occult, the New Age thinkers and, lately, all those who oppose their integration of church and politics, as evidenced in their political reelection campaigns against those who oppose their views. In revolutions, the devil is usually the ruling power or aristocracy. Some human-potential movements are far too clever to ask their graduates to join anything, thus labeling themselves as a cult–but, if you look closely, you’ll find that their devil is anyone and everyone who hasn’t taken their training.
There are mass movements without devils but they seldom attain major status. The True Believers are mentally unbalanced or insecure people, or those without hope or friends. People don’t look for allies when they love, but they do when they hate or become obsessed with a cause. And those who desire a new life and a new order feel the old ways must be eliminated before the new order can be built.
Persuasion Techniques
Persuasion isn’t technically brainwashing but it is the manipulation of the human mind by another individual, without the manipulated party being aware what caused his opinion shift. I only have time to very basically introduce you to a few of the thousands of techniques in use today, but the basis of persuasion is always to access your right brain. The left half of your brain is analytical and rational. The right side is creative and imaginative. That is overly simplified but it makes my point. So, the idea is to distract the left brain and keep it busy. Ideally, the persuader generates an eyes-open altered state of consciousness, causing you to shift from beta awareness into alpha; this can be measured on an EEG machine.
“Yes Set”
First, let me give you an example of distracting the left brain. Politicians use these powerful techniques all the time; lawyers use many variations which, I’ve been told, they call “tightening the noose.”
Assume for a moment that you are watching a politician give a speech. First, he might generate what is called a “yes set.” These are statements that will cause listeners to agree; they might even unknowingly nod their heads in agreement. Next come the truisms. These are usually facts that could be debated but, once the politician has his audience agreeing, the odds are in the politician’s favor that the audience won’t stop to think for themselves, thus continuing to agree. Last comes the suggestion. This is what the politician wants you to do and, since you have been agreeing all along, you could be persuaded to accept the suggestion. Now, if you’ll listen closely to my political speech, you’ll find that the first three are the “yes set,” the next three are truisms and the last is the suggestion.
“Ladies and gentlemen: are you angry about high food prices? Are you tired of astronomical gas prices? Are you sick of out-of-control inflation? Well, you know the Other Party allowed 18 percent inflation last year; you know crime has increased 50 percent nationwide in the last 12 months, and you know your paycheck hardly covers your expenses any more. Well, the answer to resolving these problems is to elect me, John Jones, to the U.S. Senate.”
Embedded Commands
And I think you’ve heard all that before. But you might also watch for what are called embedded commands. As an example: On key words, the speaker would make a gesture with his left hand, which research has shown is more apt to access your right brain. Today’s media-oriented politicians and spellbinders are often carefully trained by a whole new breed of specialist who are using every trick in the book–both old and new–to manipulate you into accepting their candidate.
The Power of NLP
The concepts and techniques of Neuro-Linguistics are so heavily protected that I found out the hard way that to even talk about them publicly or in print results in threatened legal action. Yet Neuro-Linguistic training is readily available to anyone willing to devote the time and pay the price. It is some of the most subtle and powerful manipulation I have yet been exposed to. A good friend who recently attended a two-week seminar on Neuro-Linguistics found that many of those she talked to during the breaks were government people.
Interspersal Technique
Another technique that I’m just learning about is unbelievably slippery; it is called an interspersal technique and the idea is to say one thing with words but plant a subconscious impression of something else in the minds of the listeners and/or watchers.
Practical Examples
Let me give you an example: Assume you are watching a television commentator make the following statement: Senator Johnson is assisting local authorities to clear up the stupid mistakes of companies contributing to the nuclear waste problems.” It sounds like a statement of fact, but, if the speaker emphasizes the right word, and especially if he makes the proper hand gestures on the key words, you could be left with the subconscious impression that Senator Johnson is stupid. That was the subliminal goal of the statement and the speaker cannot be called to account for anything.
Persuasion techniques are also frequently used on a much smaller scale with just as much effectiveness. The insurance salesman knows his pitch is likely to be much more effective if he can get you to visualize something in your mind. This is right-brain communication. For instance, he might pause in his conversation, look slowly around your livingroom and say, “Can you just imagine this beautiful home burning to the ground?” Of course you can! It is one of your unconscious fears and, when he forces you to visualize it, you are more likely to be manipulated into signing his insurance policy.
Shock and Confusion
The Hare Krishnas, operating in every airport, use what I call shock and confusion techniques to distract the left brain and communicate directly with the right brain. While waiting for a plane, I once watched one operate for over an hour. He had a technique of almost jumping in front of someone. Initially, his voice was loud then dropped as he made his pitch to take a book and contribute money to the cause. Usually, when people are shocked, they immediately withdraw. In this case they were shocked by the strange appearance, sudden materialization and loud voice of the Hare Krishna devotee. In other words, the people went into an alpha state for security because they didn’t want to confront the reality before them.
In alpha, they were highly suggestible so they responded to the suggestion of taking the book; the moment they took the book, they felt guilty and responded to the second suggestion: give money. We are all conditioned that if someone gives us something, we have to give them something in return–in that case, it was money. While watching this hustler, I was close enough to notice that many of the people he stopped exhibited an outward sign of alpha–their eyes were actually dilated.
Subliminal Programming
Subliminals are hidden suggestions that only your subconscious perceives. They can be audio, hidden behind music, or visual, airbrushed into a picture, flashed on a screen so fast that you don’t consciously see them, or cleverly incorporated into a picture or design.
Most audio subliminal reprogramming tapes offer verbal suggestions recorded at a low volume. I question the efficacy of this technique–if subliminals are not perceptible, they cannot be effective, and subliminals recorded below the audible threshold are therefore useless. The oldest audio subliminal technique uses a voice that follows the volume of the music so subliminals are impossible to detect without a parametric equalizer. But this technique is patented and, when I wanted to develop my own line of subliminal audiocassettes, negotiations with the patent holder proved to be unsatisfactory.
My attorney obtained copies of the patents which I gave to some talented Hollywood sound engineers, asking them to create a new technique. They found a way to psycho-acoustically modify and synthesize the suggestions so that they are projected in the same chord and frequency as the music, thus giving them the effect of being part of the music. But we found that in using this technique, there is no way to reduce various frequencies to detect the subliminals. In other words, although the suggestions are being heard by the subconscious mind, they cannot be monitored with even the most sophisticated equipment.
If we were able to come up with this technique as easily as we did, I can only imagine how sophisticated the technology has become, with unlimited government or advertising funding. And I shudder to think about the propaganda and commercial manipulation that we are exposed to on a daily basis. There is simply no way to know what is behind the music you hear. It may even be possible to hide a second voice behind the voice to which you are listening.
The series by Wilson Bryan Key, Ph.D., on subliminals in advertising and political campaigns well documents the misuse in many areas, especially printed advertising in newspapers, magazines, and posters.
The big question about subliminals is: do they work? And I guarantee you they do. Not only from the response of those who have used my tapes, but from the results of such programs as the subliminals behind the music in department stores. Supposedly, the only message is instructions to not steal: one East Coast department store chain reported a 37 percent reduction in thefts in the first nine months of testing.
A 1984 article in the technical newsletter, “Brain-Mind Bulletin,” states that as much as 99 percent of our cognitive activity may be “non-conscious,” according to the director of the Laboratory for Cognitive Psychophysiology at the University of Illinois. The lengthy report ends with the statement, “these findings support the use of subliminal approaches such as taped suggestions for weight loss and the therapeutic use of hypnosis and Neuro-Linguistic Programming.”
Mass Misuse of Subliminal Programming
I could relate many stories that support subliminal programming, but I’d rather use my time to make you aware of even more subtle uses of such programming.
I have personally experienced sitting in a Los Angeles auditorium with over ten thousand people who were gathered to listen to a current charismatic figure. Twenty minutes after entering the auditorium, I became aware that I was going in and out of an altered state. Those accompanying me experienced the same thing. Since it is our business, we were aware of what was happening, but those around us were not. By careful observation, what appeared to be spontaneous demonstrations were, in fact, artful manipulations. The only way I could figure that the eyes-open trance had been induced was that a 6- to 7-cycle-per-second vibration was being piped into the room behind the air conditioner sound. That particular vibration generates alpha, which would render the audience highly susceptible. Ten to 25 percent of the population is capable of a somnambulistic level of altered states of consciousness; for these people, the suggestions of the speaker, if non-threatening, could potentially be accepted as “commands.”
Vibrato
This leads to the mention of vibrato. Vibrato is the tremulous effect imparted in some vocal or instrumental music, and the cyle-per-second range causes people to go into an altered state of consciousness. At one period of English history, singers whose voices contained pronounced vibrato were not allowed to perform publicly because listeners would go into an altered state and have fantasies, often sexual in nature.
People who attend opera or enjoy listening to singers like Mario Lanza are familiar with this altered state induced by the performers.
Extra-low Frequency Vibrations (ELFs)
Now, let’s carry this awareness a little farther. There are also inaudible ELFs (extra-low frequency waves). These are electromagnetic in nature. One of the primary uses of ELFs is to communicate with our submarines. Dr. Andrija Puharich, a highly respected researcher, in an attempt to warn U.S. officials about Russian use of ELFs, set up an experiment. Volunteers were wired so their brain waves could be measured on an EEG. They were sealed in a metal room that could not be penetrated by a normal signal.
Puharich then beamed ELF waves at the volunteers. ELFs go right through the earth and, of course, right through metal walls. Those inside couldn’t know if the signal was or was not being sent. And Puharich watched the reactions on the technical equipment: 30 percent of those inside the room were taken over by the ELF signal in six to ten seconds.
When I say “taken over,” I mean that their behavior followed the changes anticipated at very precise frequencies. Waves below 6 cycles per second caused the subjects to become very emotionally upset, and even disrupted bodily functions. At 8.2 cycles, they felt very high…an elevated feeling, as though they had been in masterful meditation, learned over a period of years. Eleven to 11.3 cycles induced waves of depressed agitation leading to riotous behavior.
The Neurophone
Dr. Patrick Flanagan is a personal friend of mine. In the early 1960s, as a teenager, Pat was listed as one of the top scientists in the world by “Life” magazine. Among his many inventions was a device he called the Neurophone–an electronic instrument that can successfully programm suggestions directly through contact with the skin. When he attempted to patent the device, the government demanded that he prove it worked. When he did, the National Security Agency confiscated the neurophone. It took Pat two years of legal battle to get his invention back.
In using the device, you don’t hear or see a thing; it is applied to the skin, which Pat claims is the source of special senses. The skin contains more sensors for heat, touch, pain, vibration, and electrical fields than any other part of the human anatomy.
In one of his recent tests, Pat conducted two identical seminars for a military audience–one seminar one night and one the next night, because the size of the room was not large enough to accommodate all of them at one time. When the first group proved to be very cool and unwilling to respond, Patrick spent the next day making a special tape to play at the second seminar. The tape instructed the audience to be extremely warm and responsive and for their hands to become “tingly.” The tape was played through the neurophone, which was connected to a wire he placed along the ceiling of the room. There were no speakers, so no sound could be heard, yet the message was successfully transmitted from that wire directly into the brains of the audience. They were warm and receptive, their hands tingled and they responded, according to programming, in other ways that I cannot mention here.
Technological Tools for Mass Manipulation
The more we find out about how human beings work through today’s highly advanced technological research, the more we learn to control human beings. And what probably scares me the most is that the medium for takeover is already in place. The television set in your livingroom and bedroom is doing a lot more than just entertaining you.
Before I continue, let me point out something else about an altered state of consciousness. When you go into an altered state, you transfer into right brain, which results in the internal release of the body’s own opiates: enkephalins and Beta-endorphins, chemically almost identical to opium. In other words, it feels good…and you want to come back for more.
Recent tests by researcher Herbert Krugman showed that, while viewers were watching TV, right-brain activity outnumbered left-brain activity by a ratio of two to one. Put more simply, the viewers were in an altered state…in trance more often than not. They were getting their Beta-endorphin “fix.”
To measure attention spans, psychophysiologist Thomas Mulholland of the Veterans Hospital in Bedford, Massachusetts, attached young viewers to an EEG machine that was wired to shut the TV set off whenever the children’s brains produced a majority of alpha waves. Although the children were told to concentrate, only a few could keep the set on for more than 30 seconds!
Most viewers are already hypnotized. To deepen the trance is easy. One simple way is to place a blank, black frame every 32 frames in the film that is being projected. This creates a 45-beat-per-minute pulsation perceived only by the subconscious mind–the ideal pace to generate deep hypnosis.
The commercials or suggestions presented following this alpha-inducing broadcast are much more likely to be accepted by the viewer. The high percentage of the viewing audience that has somnambulistic-depth ability could very well accept the suggestions as commands–as long as those commands did not ask the viewer to do something contrary to his morals, religion, or self-preservation.
The medium for takeover is here. By the age of 16, children have spent 10,000 to 15,000 hours watching television–that is more time than they spend n school! In the average home, the TV set is on for six hours and 44 minutes per day–an increase of nine minutes from last year and three times the average rate of increase during the 1970s.
It obviously isn’t getting better…we are rapidly moving into an alpha-level world–very possibly the Orwellian world of “1984″–placid, glassy-eyed, and responding obediently to instructions.
A research project by Jacob Jacoby, a Purdue University psychologist, found that of 2,700 people tested, 90 percent misunderstood even such simple viewing fare as commercials and “Barnaby Jones.” Only minutes after watching, the typical viewer missed 23 to 36 percent of the questions about what he or she had seen. Of course they did–they were going in and out of trance! If you go into a deep trance, you must be instructed to remember–otherwise you automatically forget.
In Closing…
I have just touched the tip of the iceberg. When you start to combine subliminal messages behind the music, subliminal visuals projected on the screen, hypnotically produced visual effects, sustained musical beats at a trance-inducing pace . . . you have extremely effective brainwashing. Every hour that you spend watching the TV set you become more conditioned. And, in case you thought there was a law against any of these things, guess again. There isn’t! There are a lot of powerful people who obviously prefer things exactly the way they are. Maybe they have plans for…?

Home alkaline ionizing units are the next “must have” appliances of the future. So, What is it? It’s a counter top appliance that attaches to your faucet and turns your tap water into a liquid antioxidant. Your tap water is purified, mineralized and then put through an electrolysis treatment, which reduces the size of the water particle cluster and separates the water into an alkaline stream and an acid stream. The treated water contains ions that act as scavengers that neutralize free radicals . This allows your immune system to become stronger and enables your body to better fight off disease. Unlike distilled or reverse osmosis, which is highly acidic, the alkaline water contains sodium, calcium, potassium and magnesium, which are easily absorbed because the water is micro- clustered. Doctors claim this will revolutionize the health industry worldwide. It’s really exciting! Just about every disease known has been touched by this method of water treatment. It actually helps the body to heal itself!
What is Restructured Alkaline Water?
Restructured Alkaline water is the result of an electrolysis process. This process actually electrifies the water between two points: a cathode, a negative conductor and an anode, a positive conductor. The water separates into a “living” alkaline stream and a “living” acid stream.
Another process also takes place during this electrolysis. The alkaline water molecule structure (groups of H20 molecules) size is reduced from approximately 11 clusters to 5 or 6 clusters. This smaller water is referred to scientifically as “Electrolyzed Reduced Water” and commonly referred to as “Restructured Alkaline Water”. This alkaline water is full of negative hydrogen ions as a result of the molecular restructuring. This is what gives the alkaline water the super anti-oxidative property and its ability to be an active scavenger of free radicals within the body. Its restructured size gives it great permeability in the body allowing it to penetrate cellular barriers, limited by normal water, providing maximum hydration.
The alkaline water has an oxygen reduction potential (ORP) rating which refers to how much anti-oxidation it can perform. This relates to the relative pH of the water and as you drink it, determines its effectiveness as an anti-oxidant in your body. The higher the pH provides more oxygen reduction potential and the higher its potency as an antioxidant within your body. Over time, the alkaline water has the ability to turn your tissue into an alkaline state and dissolve acid formed matter such as kidney stones and gall stones within the body.
The alkaline water has a pure clean taste, is easy to drink and sometimes referred to as a “wetter water” due to its smooth texture and reduced molecule structure size. The smaller molecule structure size allows the water to boil in about half of the time as regular water, making it an excellent water for cooking. The faster heat conduction keeps the flavor in the food and not in the water that is drained away.
Restructured Alkaline Ionized Water, The Way Back to Health and Wellness
The Japanese have researched this for over forty years and have found that drinking restructured alkaline water can relieve or reduce the three main causes for sickness, disease and pre-mature aging: Acidosis (over acidity), Dehydration, and Free Radicals.
Acidosis (over acidity):
Almost any health care provider, alternative or mainstream, will agree that most health problems, including cancer, begin in an acid environment within the body. Disease cannot live in an alkaline environment. Many lay people already know this. What most people don’t know is that if your urine pH drops below 5.8 you cannot absorb vitamins A, B, E, F, and K. Nor can you absorb valuable minerals like sulphur, potassium, calcium, vanadium, chromium, iron, or zinc. This is irrelevant of how much of these supplements you ingest. Give it some thought, you may literally be flushing huge amounts of money down the toilet, so to speak. The majority of people we check have a urine pH below 5.8 and don’t realize they are wasting their money on supplements. Restructured alkaline water is the fastest and most efficient way to alkalize your body. We are meant to be alkaline on the inside of our bodies.
Suggested reading: Alkalize or Die by Dr. Theodore A. Baroody
Dehydration:
Estimates show that as high as 90 percent of the population is dehydrated, and they don’t even know it. Research has proven a body needs one-half of its weight in fluid ounces of water per day to remain properly hydrated. Dehydration has been linked to many of our modern diseases, too numerous to mention here. For detailed research on this fact you should read Your Body’s Many Cries for Water by F. Batmanghelidj, M.D. This book will help you understand the vital importance of water. All water does not hydrate efficiently. Distilled water, for example, is dead and devoid of all minerals. It is extremely acidic and will tend to dehydrate you. The average pH of distilled water is 4.5, this is almost 1000 times more acidic than your blood, which is a pH of 7.3. Distilled water must be neutralized within the body, and as a result if there is insufficient calcium in the diet, it is leeched from other sources of calcium within the body. Reverse Osmosis water has many of the same problems, no minerals and an average pH of 5.0, more than 100 times more acidic than your blood. Remember that most bottled water and even some purified spring water use reverse osmosis in their bottling process.
Free Radicals:
Determined to be the major cause of premature aging, free radicals are atoms, ions, and molecules derived from oxygen that cause cellular damage within the body. Free radicals are highly reactive because they are missing an electron to balance it. They freely and randomly seek out available molecular electrons to bond to in the body, causing cellular structure damage. This damage contributes to aging and disease. Free radicals are a part of the normal physiology of the body and their numbers are related to diet, exercise, lifestyle habits and our environment.
The body’s defense system for free radicals is antioxidants. Antioxidants act as neutralizing agents within the body. They supply the necessary electron bond for the highly reactive free radical thus blocking damage to cells within the body. Antioxidants are supplied by our diet and can be fortified by additional supplementation. Substantial research indicates the relationship between antioxidants and the strength of the immune system.
Restructured alkaline water functions as a super liquid antioxidant! It has more antioxidants than fresh squeezed orange juice. Alkaline water is loaded with negative hydrogen ions to neutralize free radicals and rid your body of this acidic waste material; sparing cellular damage that leads to aging and disease. Just by simply drinking your ideal daily goal you properly hydrate your body, rid yourself of acidic free radicals and strengthen your immune system.
Restructured alkaline water is slightly higher in pH than the blood, thereby relieving the stress on the body to keep your pH balanced where it is supposed to be. Restructured alkaline water, made using electrolysis, has smaller clusters of molecules that enable it to hydrate the body faster than any other water. It carries nutrients and oxygen to your cells more efficiently and flushes acidic cellular waste with much greater effectiveness.
Sounds simple, doesn’t it? Well it can be if you do the right things. After all, the country of Japan ranks very high, if not #1, in the World Health Organization’s health scale. One out of every 5 households in Japan has an alkaline ionizer. The other wonderful aspect of producing the best water in the world right from home is that we no longer have to buy bottled water. We save money and stop the plastic waste polluting the planet. It takes a plastic bottle approximately 1,000 years to decompose. Producing the best drinking water in the world from our own homes is an idea whose time has come!
]]>By Karen Valentine for The Honolulu Church of Light
Can peace on Earth be a reality resulting from the practice of healing? Ask Kahu Fred Sterling, healing pioneer and senior minister of the Honolulu Church of Light in Honolulu, Hawaii, he’ll resoundingly say, “Absolutely!” A bit too optimistic perhaps? Not if you understand that Kahu Fred Sterling, (Also simply known as “Kahu”) has the exceptional ability to fully connect with the boundless, multi-dimensional realm of Spirit and therefore is privy to information and knowledge in its purest form.
For more than 20 years, he has served as the Medium for the loving light and wisdom of Master Guide Kirael, a seventh-dimensional spirit in service to evolving societies such as Earth. Jointly, they have re-introduced to humanity an ancient wisdom of integrative healing that is now called “Signature Cell Healing™.”
Signature Cell Healing is a technique so powerful, yet so simple that it can be practiced by anyone with significant results. “After traditional methods have fallen short, the outcome of Signature Cell Healing has been called by many nothing short of a healing miracle,” says Kahu. The key to it’s success is that unlike most healing modalities today that focus only on the physical self, Signature Cell Healing focuses equally on all four bodies; the Physical, Emotional, Mental and Spiritual, allowing the medical practitioner or energy healing practitioner (Reiki, Healing Touch, etc.) to successfully and seamlessly integrate it into their work as a complement to their existing practice.
“Signature Cell Healing is so powerful, because it works with the Creator’s essence in the body through the “Creator Cell”, “God Cell” or what we call the “Signature Cell” – the one cell in your body that is absolutely perfect,” says Kahu. “This process of healing allows the body to awaken on all levels so that it can go beyond the five senses and move into the healing of the etheric body which is the first step towards healing anything that needs to be healed.”
Signature Cell Healing workshops, facilitated by Kahu Fred Sterling and Rev. Mel Morishige, have been presented in the U.S. and Europe with over 600 graduates, many of who are now practicing Signature Cell Healing in healing clinics in major cities.
“Everyone who attends this class is changed and most find that it isn’t solely about being a healer, it’s about healing yourself,” he says. “We’ve had students come back to us who say their friends and family say they ‘look different,’ or that their jobs have more meaning now. Some say they went to the class because they wanted to heal themselves and now find they want to reach out to others. People are awakening every day knowing they need to heal. Whether it’s healing a relationship with a spouse, healing a relationship with finances or healing the body, it all comes down to healing.”
In Signature Cell Healing, a simple breathing and visualization technique draws Prana light through the pineal gland, where the Signature Cell, or God Cell, resides.
“This Signature Cell contains the entire initial blueprint of your life’s journey as a human,” says Kahu, “and throughout your life the Signature Cell retains the code of your original perfection and purpose. It began as one cell in your body, and then replicated itself into all the different cells that make up the body. Each cell has a memory of its perfection, which it never forgets. The cell never forgets its perfection—absolutely never, no matter how diseased it may appear.”
So, the act of consciously breathing light through the pineal gland energizes the Signature Cell and allows its wisdom to assist in the healing and spiritual awakening of the Self on all levels of awareness.
“The healing comes from an understanding that the Light which permeates the entire universal force of Love also includes the physical embodiment. In the process of lighting and aligning with the universal reality of love, the healing creates a space whereby the vibratory structure of a disease breaks up. When this happens, the magnetic formation of the disease can be dispersed into the light, thereby allowing the light to do the healing. The Signature Cell Healing practitioner becomes the component to connect these realities into one alignment.”
The Level I class incorporates many more technical aspects of cellular communication, as well as demonstrations of hands-on technique. A Level II class has recently been developed. It expands Signature Cell Healing into more areas of cells, DNA, protein, tumors and stem cells. But, technical knowledge isn’t important to understanding Signature Cell Healing, says Kahu. It all goes back to love.
“The greatest healing I’ve ever seen in my life is when I saw a mother take hold of a little child who had just fallen down and skinned his knees. She picked him up and held him in her arms and the child was healed, right then and there. That’s the kind of healing the world needs. We need to get back to the basics of healing and to the understanding that we can heal each other.”
Through healing others, we are inevitably moved to heal ourselves, and in healing ourselves, we begin to see the defined possibility of world peace through healing, the core of Kahu Fred Sterling mission on this planet. He has been invited to speak to the United Nations this year and although his message sounds simple, at its core rings a truth that all can resonate with.
“This world at some point is going to get out of control. I am not speaking of ‘doom and gloom’ to instill fear, but rather to create an awareness. The world is currently on the path of moving into greater states of chaos, and when it reaches a pinnacle, I think these little Signature Cell Healing centers, these little beacons of light around the world that are rooted in Love and Peace, are going to draw so many people to them and in these we will begin to find the true journey of healing.”

]]>I am aware that the movie “The Secret” is igniting some controversy. That can be a good thing. Anything that makes people think about what they are unconsciously manifesting is useful. I admit that I didn’t see what was missing from the movie until two weeks ago when I got an “intuitive nudge” to look into it objectively.
I heard a lecture about the movie, “The Secret”, by Dr. Paul Leon Masters, the president of the University of Metaphysics on February 25th and March 4th, 2007. He found the movie to be problematic and that’s putting it mildly. I now see the “fine print” that I overlooked in my enthusiasm before. The movie is misleading.
I would like to point out a few details that will clear up the things I am most concerned about personally and share it with those of you who are interested in the secret behind “The Secret.”
First of all, thinking positively is always better than thinking negatively or worrying. Having an attitude of gratitude is extraordinarily beneficial. No one will deny this. However, if a person on a path of spiritual growth hasn’t done any shadow work, their unconscious mental garbage will contaminate and cancel out any superficial positive thinking.
The secret behind “The Secret” is that the person who wishes to consciously manifest their heart’s desire must first be “plugged in” to the God-Mind within. Dr Masters says you can’t make toast if the toaster isn’t plugged in to an energy source. You can wish for toast and it might get hard after a while and feel like toast but until its plugged in-there will be no toast. Secondly, aspirants must strive to let go of the baggage from their past and begin to allow the Universe to work through them as a clear, open channel. The formula offered in the movie is worthless to the “uninitiated”. This is actually a film of what is possible once a person has made an authentic connection with inner divinity and refined their sense receptors so that they can receive divine guidance. There is a world of difference between intellectually accepting the theory that we are all One and the experience that we are divine and not separate from All That Is.
The movie doesn’t promote these essential first steps. It presents a formula that is based on metaphysical half Truth that is terribly misleading. The movie also promotes a kind of superficial, mental, materialism. Prosperity is natural for someone who is aligned with inner divinity and ready to receive. Many of us are not able to receive because we haven’t cleaned out the unconscious beliefs that limit us. If we want to have access to conscious manifestation we must focus on two objectives 1) –Self-healing (shadow work) and 2) –cultivating a connection with inner divinity (unity) and Oneness with the Universal Mind (through Eastern or Western meditation and yoga techniques.) Since everyone is different, it is imperative that everyone experiment and find the way that suits him or her best. There are many, many choices. The traditional Hindu Yogas, Buddhism (Zen, Tibetan), Shamanism, Jungian methods, Kabbalah, Gnosis, etc…etc…
The missing element in the movie should be our number one goal–“Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven.” The movie seems to put the cart before the horse. The universe is not (as it suggests) a huge department store or genie waiting to take orders from our materialistic, possession hungry, little, egos. The Universe works through us-not the other way around. Prosperity, which includes health and wealth on all levels, is a sign of spiritual maturity. It comes from an authentic seeking of Divinity within, which is the Kingdom of Heaven that Jesus speaks of.
Our waking dreams which include illnesses and minor or major catastrophes and dramas are wake up calls from our higher selves. These encounters are orchestrated perfectly (custom designed) by a Conscious Universe (our higher selves) for the benefit of our soul’s growth and ultimately for the evolution of the planet.
Sometimes the divine plan hidden in illness allows for a seemingly miraculous and complete recovery which may or may not catapult the person into the next phase of his or her spiritual evolution and sometimes the universe has other plans and the person receives another kind of healing, what we call death. The woman in the movie who healed her breast cancer by faith and gratitude and laughter had an underlying belief system to support it; so did the Miracle man. The Universe had something up its proverbial sleeve the whole time, however. The point is, the Universe works through us.
For those who feel that the movie was saying, “you alone always create your illnesses and you alone can always heal them”-I say, hogwash. You can’t always take full credit for the illness or the healing. What we can do is take responsibility for our response and alter our perspective to one that serves us better. The attitude that serves our spiritual growth best in any situation is acceptance of “what is” and gratitude for all that we already have that supports our well-being.
We have all heard that misery loves company and birds of a feather flock together. According to The law of attraction, thoughts are attracted to people who generate a similar frequency. Thoughts think us but we are not the source of our thoughts. The few geniuses of our times were (and are) there to push the collective group forward. It was their destiny. They came in as open receivers to that “radio frequency.” Mozart and Einstein cannot pat themselves on the back and say “look what “i” did, glad “i” followed the formula of ‘The Secret’,” We (our egos) cannot consciously manifest anything by merely thinking about it or intentionally feeling really, really strongly about it. All we as egos can do (since we don’t exist) is humbly let go and allow our True Self to begin to receive guidance. Dr Masters says that if we do not align ourselves with the God within, it is like a house divided. There is typically an unconscious, fearful self, sabotaging any potential growth. He reminded me that it is the God within that keeps us alive every moment-not the intellect (who we think we are). We would be dead in a minute if we had to rely on our intellect to pump our own hearts and everything else that sustains us moment to moment.
Someone recently corrected me midst conversation and said “Rebecca, you can have everything you want!” They were referring to the message in “The Secret.” When taken out of context this is just bunk. I was reminded by the lecture I mentioned earlier that our intellect is only a tool; it doesn’t know what is best for us. The universe knows what we need to grow. When we are (finally) following our bliss and the universe rolls out the red carpet it is because we are open channels, aligned with the God within. We are “on purpose”, “on the path” etc…
Typically, our egos seek pleasure and avoid pain (and change). There is a difference between genuine heart desire and ego fulfillment. When we are “plugged in” and following our bliss it seems that “we” are manifesting everything “we” want-but it is heart desire-inspired by the God within and produced with cooperation by the God within and the Universal Mind. Dr. Masters had a great analogy about building construction (you know like houses and skyscrapers). He said that we couldn’t all be the architect; somebody has to do the “dirty work.” In an enlightened society the ditch digger and architect would be respected equally. The “i”s can’t have everything the “i”s want. That is pure hype.
Dr Masters invites us to watch the old classic movie “Forbidden Planet.” In this movie there is an advanced race of people who have powers of mental materialism. They have the ability to manifest anything they want by visualization techniques but they are not spiritually mature and instead the fears of their subconscious minds override their Candyland wishes consequently; dark, shadow creatures (from their own lower natures) destroy the planet instead. The Universal Mind has no intention of allowing us to mentally materialize everything our little “i”s want.
Our beliefs create our reality. We do attract like energies to us. We do not however project our egocentric thoughts into the Universal Mind and manifest our dreams. It works the other way around. The Universal Mind works through us. Dr. Masters has many grand accomplishments and yet he said that he couldn’t really take credit for any of it. He allowed spirit to work through him and he followed the guidance with appropriate actions. But even those actions, which are a series of received thoughts and body responses, were out of his direct control. Werner Erhart used to say, “If you think that you are thinking then stop. The truth is, the thoughts are thinking you.”
We are co-creators and our main job is to find our bliss. Some people don’t recognize “it” until their thirties or forties, if they ever recognize it at all. To follow your bliss is to become aligned with your heart. Spirit inspires us through the heart and our thoughts reflect these charged feelings. We have the God given potential to do the necessary shadow work and acquire a Christ-like mind. This is the real secret behind “The Secret.” But even this “so called” accomplishment is not really something we can take credit for.
John 14:10 (21st Century King James Version) “Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak unto you I speak not of Myself; but the Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works.”
It has been a long time since I have quoted the Bible. But when I heard Dr. Masters quote from these familiar passages (in their proper metaphysical context) they had such poignancy that I wanted to share them with you.

Matthew 6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret; and thy Father who seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. (Meditate, find the God/Goddess within and open a clear channel for divine guidance)
6:8… your Father knoweth what things ye have need of before ye ask Him.
(Our goal is to develop our innate intuition and align ourselves with the Source or God within, who knows what is best for our growth)
6:19,20,21 “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. (Follow your bliss and seek divine wisdom and you will receive authentic prosperity naturally)
6:22 “The light of the body is the eye. If therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. (when you align with inner divinity or True Self , you open the potential to experience Oneness with Universal Consciousness and Ultimate Well Being)
6:23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness! (The Shadow Self can stifle or block your ability to perceive your own divinity)
6:24 “No man can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
(You can’t align with the ego/ lower nature and the God within and expect spiritual growth)
6:27 “Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
(positive thinking is futile without a spiritual anchor or connection. We need to be clear of old negative beliefs and be “plugged in”)
6:33 But seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you. (Don’t put the cart before the horse. Seek inner divinity first and prosperity will follow)
