Wouldn#t that be wonderful$

%ook at your life - do you have what you really, really want? Or are you settling - have you given up on creating the ideal life you once dreamed of$ &obody has to live a life that is ordinary - yet most people do 'y doing so they miss out on their true potential (he Silva UltraMind System is about discovering your purpose in life and using your creative energies to fulfill this purpose ) life built around a greater purpose is a life that is truly fulfilling and e"citing

oad !a" to #u$$ess

*ifferent people have different definitions of success +or you, su$$ess could be, starting a profitable business

starting a loving family writing a book owning a beautiful --bedroom home in the country running a marathon spending . years abroad with the /eace Corps earning your first one million dollars recovering from a life-threatening illness &o matter what your definition is, it#s important to dream big and set a goal of what you#re seeking to accomplish Once you know what you want, the ne"t step is to manifest it into your life (his is what this training program is all about

Let's begin the lessons now. What You'll Learn

(his e-book will take you through nine guided lessons involving the written word and audio recordings 0ou will learn to reach deep levels of mind using advanced audio e"ercises developed by 1ose Silva While at these levels of mind we will teach you various techni2ues you can use to empower yourself and move you toward your purpose and goals

Here's what you will learn over the next few days:
3ow to rea$h dee" levels o% &editation with supreme ease 3ow to use affirmations to $reate i&&ediate attitude shi%ts. 3ow to a$$elerate healing and achieve vibrant health 3ow to develo" your intuition. (he art of $reative visuali'ation to &ani%est drea&s. 3ow to $reate a li%e "lan. (he art of goal setting and thinking big (his program was developed with the purpose of reminding you of the latent powers that lie within you4 and inspiring you to begin to use them ! use the word remind because if you found this program you#re probably aware of these abilities 'ut like most people, you have waited - procrastinated in learning to use them 0ou will receive nine lessons over the ne"t few weeks ) new lesson will be sent to you every few days 5ach lesson will contain an e"planation of a new techni2ue

(he techni2ues will get more advanced with each new lesson

'y breaking this program into several fragments and spreading them out over a few weeks we allow you to retain and understand the material presented better (his program will show you how to tap into your latent mental abilities using not 6ust written te"t but also s"e$iali'ed audio re$ordings developed by 1ose Silva (hese recordings are designed to guide you into a state of deep, focused meditation *uring this meditation you will be wide awake but your body will be asleep 0our sub$ons$ious &ind will be brought to the $ons$ious level and you will be in %ull $ontrol over your mental abilities and thoughts 0ou can use this time to "rogra& your mind to accomplish anything you desire (his is the Silva UltraMind System

The !ulti-Pur"ose !ind

'efore we begin, let#s take a glimpse at what the mind is really capable of accomplishing A well (nown %igure on$e said) The greatest discovery of the 19th century was not in the realm of the physical sciences, but the power of the subconscious mind touched by faith. Any individual can tap into an eternal reservoir of power that will enable them to overcome any problem that may arise. All weaknesses can be overcome, bodily healing, financial independence, spiritual awakening, prosperity beyond your wildest dreams. This is the superstructure of happiness. (hese words were said not by a guru on a mountaintop, nor a self-improvement writer, but by William 1ames, the 3arvard psychologist known as the +ather of )merican /sychology (o the untrained mind, William 1ames#s statement may seem far-fetched, but modern discoveries are finding his words to be true %et#s look at some e"amples of what happens when this *eternal reservoir o% "ower* is harnessed properly

Case #1 - Using the Mind in S orts

*r Charles 7arfield, former &)S) researcher and current president of (he /erformanceScience !nstitute in 'erkeley, California, talks about a startling e"periment conducted by Soviet sports scientists (he study e"amined the effect of mental training, including visuali8ation, on four groups of world-class athletes 6ust prior to the 9:;< Olympics in %ake /lacid, &ew 0ork (he four groups of elite athletes were divided as follows, 7roup 9, did 9<<= physical training

7roup ., did >?= physical training, .?= mental training 7roup -, did ?<= physical training, ?<= mental training 7roup @, did .?= physical training, >?= mental training What the researchers found was that group @ - the grou" with the &ost &ental training - had shown signi%i$antly greater i&"rove&ent than group %ikewise, group - showed more improvement than group ., and group . showed more improvement than group 9 (he results were astonishing Who would e"pect that athletes training mentally would be able to advance further than their counterparts who were training physically$ 7arfield said, A*uring mental rehearsal, athletes create mental images of the e"act movements they want to emulate in their sport +se o% this s(ill substantially in$reases the e%%e$tiveness o% goal-setting, which up until then had been little more than a dull listing procedure A

If mental exercises and visualization could have such a profound impact on athletes, what kind of impact could it have on you?
Can you use the same principle to improve your attitudes, confidence and skills$ Could it impact your learning ability4 your golf swing4 your ability to shed weight and stick to a diet$ (he answer is yes We will e"plore these topics in a later chapter and show you visuali'ation te$hniques you $an use to improve the 2uality of your life

Case #! - Miraculous Healing

(he following story will challenge your idea of 6ust how much your mind influences your body !n 9:?<, a new drug called Brebio8en had received sensational national publicity as a AcureA for cancer and was being tested by the )merican Medical )ssociation C)M)D and the US +ood and *rug )dministration C+*)D One of the researchers involved in this testing was a doctor named 'runo Blopfer One of *r Blopfer#s patients, Mr Wright, was suffering from cancer of the lymph nodes )ll standard treatments had been e"hausted, and Wright appeared to have little time left 3is neck, armpits, chest, abdomen, and groin were filled with tumors the si8e of oranges, and his spleen and liver were so enlarged that two 2uarts of milky fluid had to be drained out of his body each day When Wright discovered that *r Blopfer was involved in research on Brebio8en, he begged to be given Brebio8en treatments )t first his doctor refused because the drug was untested

and only being tried on people with a life e"pectancy of at least three months Wright begged so hard, however, that Blopfer decided to give him one in6ection on +riday, though he secretly suspected Wright would not last the weekend *r Blopfer was in for a big sur"rise. On the following Monday, Blopfer found Wright out of bed and walking around Blopfer reported that his tumors had Amelted like snowballs on a hot stoveA and were half their original si8e (his was a far more rapid decrease in si8e than even the strongest E-ray treatments could have accomplished (en days after Wright#s first Brebio8en treatment, he left the hospital, and as far as his doctors could tell, with no signs of cancer When he entered the hospital, he had needed an o"ygen mask to breathe, but when he left he was well enough to fly his own plane at 9.,<<< feet with no discomfort Wright remained well for about two months, but then articles began to appear asserting that Brebio8en actually had no effect on cancer of the lymph nodes Wright, who was rigidly logical and scientific in his thinking, became very depressed, suffered a relapse, and was readmitted to the hospital (his time his physician decided to try an e"periment *r Blopfer told Wright that Brebio8en was every bit as effective as it had seemed, but that some of the initial supplies of the drug had deteriorated during shipping 3e e"plained, however, that he had a new highly-concentrated version of the drug and could treat Wright with this Of course, the physician did not have a new version of the drug and intended to in6ect Wright with nothing more than plain sterile water

gain the results were dramatic. !umor masses melted, chest fluid vanished, and "right was #uickly back on his feet and feeling great. $et he had been in%ected with nothing more than sterile water.
Wright remained symptom-free for another two months, but then the )merican Medical )ssociation announced that a nationwide study of Brebio8en had found the drug worthless in the treatment of cancer (his time Wright#s faith was completely shattered 3is cancer blossomed anew and he died two days later Wright#s story is tragic, but it contains a powerful message, When we are fortunate enough to bypass our disbelief and tap the healing forces within us, we can cause tumors to melt away overnight (he patient#s mind alone, independent of the value of the medication, produced his recovery (his event proves that your mind is so powerful that it can literally bring wonderful or tragic events to bear within days Most people do not learn how to tap into and control this powerful force

Many people do have their minds working for them, but in negative ways *octors call this psychosomatic illness - an illness caused by a person#s negative belief system !n this course we will teach you how to create positive belief systems and how you can use visuali8ation to accelerate your body#s rate of healing and recovery

Case #" - Creating #ositive Coincidences

!t is an undisputed fact that the mind can influence the physical body but can the mind influence the world beyond your body$

!n other words, can the mind create coincidences and influence reality$
/eople all around the world have e"perienced this in their own lives and will say that the answer is yes - your world can be shaped by your thoughts and beliefs (he following story describes one such incident - how one man discovered the power of his mind in creating coincidences 3e went on to use this ability to become so successful that his work is almost a household name in )merica +or the purpose of this story, let#s call this man Scott 3is full name will not be revealed until the end to make this story more intriguing (his story was told in a book Scott wrote in 9::; !n the early 9:;<s, Scott had heard of a process called affirmations from a friend (he process he learned was simple

Fisuali8e what you want and write it down fifteen times in a row, once a day, until you obtain it
Scott was told that the process did not re2uire any faith or positive thinking for it to work 5ven more interesting was the suggestion that the techni2ue would influence the environment directly and not 6ust make you more focused on your goals !n other words, it would spawn ama8ing $oin$iden$es to &ove you toward your goals (he coincidences could be things that were seemingly unconnected to you and beyond your control Scott was very left-brained and logical in his thinking 3e had his doubts about the process but figured that there was no harm in trying AWithin a few weeks, coincidences started to happen to me A wrote Scott A)ma8ing coincidences, strings of them ! won#t mention the specific goal ! was working on, as it was a private matter, but within a few months the goal was accomplished e"actly as ! had written it A 'ut Scott was not yet convinced that affirmations helped Coincidences do happen on their own and Scott considered the test inconclusive

So Scott picked another goal - to make some gains in the stockmarket 3e wrote his affirmation down every day and waited for some inspiration !t came to him in a dream 3e woke up one night with the words A'uy ChryslerA repeating in his head 3e bought shares in the inspired company during one of its most bleak periods yet it began to rise soon after and he made some good returns on it 3e repeated the e"periment again and managed to pick another successful company, with stock symbol A)skA )rmed with this confidence in the power of affirmations Scott decided to apply it to a more challenging goal - getting into the highly competitive University of California at 'erkeley M') program

(he problem was that he had already taken the entrance e"am, the 7 M ) (, and only hit the >>th percentile score 3e knew he needed to be above the :<th percentile to at least have a chance of being accepted Scott picked the outlandish target of :@ as his goal and again applied the affirmation techni2ue *espite not being able to go much higher than the >>th percentile in the practice e"ams Scott was surprised to learn that he did indeed hit the :@th percentile for the 7 M ) ( - 6ust as he had written in his affirmations 3e graduated with his 'erkeley M') in 9:;G ) few years later he tried pursuing a more serious goal, that of being a syndicated cartoonist 3e knew the odds of his cartoon submission being accepted by a ma6or newspaper were roughly 9 in 9<,<<< 3e beat those odds and his cartoon was accepted 3e was soon earning a decent living with his cartoon strip but he wanted to achieve something bigger 3e decided he wanted the most successful comic strip on the planet Scott felt that the best measure of Amost successfulA would be number of books sold

!n 1une 9::G his book The Dilbert Principle hit the number-one spot on the hardcover nonfiction list of the New York Times !t stayed in the top three all summer !n &ovember his second book, Dogbert's TopSecret Management Handbook, also made the bestseller list, giving Scott the number-one and number-two positions simultaneously for one week +or that brief period of time, Scott indeed had the Amost successfulA comic strip on the planet )s you may have guessed, the person !#m talking about is Scott )dams, the creator of the highly successful Dilbert comic strip Scott writes about these e"periences with affirmations in his book The Dilbert Future 3e does not profess to know why it works but leaves the conclusion to the reader 0ou can buy Scott )dams# hilarious Dilbert books at any bookstore Reporters often ask me if am surprised at the success of the !ilbert comic strip. was, e#pected it.

definitely would be so, if not for my bi"arre e#perience with affirmations. As it

The Two Ty"es o% !editation) Passive and A$tive

When we meditate several important things happen physically and mentally +irst, we are Afocusing internallyA and letting go of the outside world Csimilar to going to sleep, but without losing consciousnessD (his allows our brains to shift into more stable, stronger brain fre2uencies Ccalled alpha and theta by scientistsD normally reached during sleep When we can reduce our brain fre2uencies to these levels while staying awake we are able to bring the unconscious mind to the conscious level (his allows us to control and harness the power of the unconscious mind (here are two types of meditation

#assive Meditation
)ll meditation systems, such as 0oga, Len, (ranscendental Meditation C(MD, Silva UltraMind and others have similar benefits 'y ApassivelyA letting go and going within, we AdeactivateA our survival mechanisms and allow our body#s natural health and re6uvenation abilities to be activated 5ach method has its own way of reaching the inner state of mind, and each has its own goals

,ctive Meditation
1ose Silva#s techni2ues allow you to use the rela"ed, healthy state of mind that occurs during meditation to solve your day-to-day problems Silva found that by AactivelyA utili8ing brain languages Ckinesthetic, visual, and auditory thought processesD, we can use this higher energy state to improve memory and learning skills, change unwanted habits, enhance health, and healing 3e also developed techni2ues to achieve what many people call Atapping the superconsciousA to solve problems, reach goals, come up with new ideas and solutions to problems Some students use the Silva UltraMind System to enhance their spiritual growth Using such techni2ues within a meditative state is called AactiveA meditation

=ut what e-a$tly ha""ens when you &editate?

0our brain functions on a small amount of electricity, much like a computer (his electrical current vibrates and pulses at various speeds When you are wide awake, with your eyes focused, your brain vibrates .< times per second - what scientists call .< cycles per second or the 'eta fre2uency 0ou are probably at this beta level of mind right now as you read this When you go to sleep, your brain fre2uency slows down, all the way to about half a cycle per second in the deepest levels of natural sleep (his is known as the *elta level !n between 'eta, the waking state, and *elta, the deep sleep state, there are two other levels of mental activity When you are in a light level of sleep or in meditation you are in the )lpha range, which is > to 9@ cycles per second (his is the center range and this is what we mean by saying Agoing to your centerA 7oing to the alpha level or centering is essentially the same thing as meditating When someone meditates, scientifically, they are simply reducing their brain wave fre2uency to )lpha (he )lpha level is the level we use to activate our minds (heta is a level of deeper rela"ation or sleep, when your brain waves are at @ to > cycles per second (he table below summari8es the @ states of brain fre2uency

)ll you need to do is find a comfortable position, preferably sitting up, and close your eyes When you#re ready you can start the audio When you practice the Silva Centering 5"ercise, there are three things you need to do while you keep your eyes closed (he 5"ercise is more than 6ust a rela"ation tool - it is also a powerful way to tap into your mind to solve problems, change habits and practice creative visuali8ation (his is what we mean by 1yna&i$ !editation.

The Three Things You !ust 1o

)uthor 5d 'ernd 1r with 1ose Silva

+irst, you should practice your concentration Concentration is a basic skill Concentrate on what the instructor tells you to do via the audio Second, practice your imagination We want you to learn how to e-aggerate your i&agination, because you will be in a better position to control your creative visuali8ation )t the same time, it will keep you active while going through the e"ercise 'y being mentally active, you avoid the tendency to drift off into sleep (hird, you must practice coordinating your physiological rela"ation with your mental rela"ation !t is easy to go into a mental rela"ation 'ut you must learn to let your body rela" too !t takes a little longer for you to rela" your body than it does for you to rela" your mind 0ou do not have to maintain a fi"ed, rigid position !f you have to ad6ust your body to be comfortable, do so !f you need to scratch an itch, do it Make yourself comfortable and you will be able to rela" better !f you feel uncomfortable for any reason, if you feel that you want to open your eyes, then open your eyes immediately (ell yourself - mentally or verbally - to rela", that everything is okay (hen when you are rela"ed, go back to the beginning of the recording and start over

Things to

e&e&ber

9 When the instructor says to Apro6ectA - or AconcentrateA - your sense of awareness on your scalp area, that#s where you start practicing concentration 5stablish what your AawarenessA is %et#s pretend, for e"ample, that it is a ray of light 'lue-white light !t is easier for us to focus a ray of light into that area than anything else . &e"t you are instructed to detect the vibrations in that area, a Afeeling of warmth caused by circulationA &aturally, it is the blood circulation we are talking about Concentrate on trying to feel the pulsations of those vibrations in that area 0ou may not feel them on your first try, but by the second or third effort, you will - (hen you are instructed to Arelease and completely rela" all tensions and ligament pressures from this part of your bodyA *on#t 6ust recite it, concentrate on it, and e"aggerate your imagination 3ow would you imagine your scalp being fully rela"ed$ (hink Concentrate Maybe you would feel better imagining your scalp as if there is a warm, wet cloth draped over it Use your imagination @ (he instructor will also say positive affirmations such as Aevery day in every way ! am getting better and betterA )nother affirmation you will hear is A! am now learning to attune my intelligence, and developing my sensing faculties, and learning to pro6ect them to different locationsA (his is an affirmation we use in our seminars to train people to develop 5S/ When you combine your physiological rela"ation with your mental rela"ation you will be much more rela"ed at the end of that e"ercise (he more you practice, the easier it will be to rela" completely /lease remember, the secret to success is discipline /ractice makes perfect (his is no different from training your physical body and getting into shape !f you e"ercise your body only once per month you get very different results than if you e"ercise daily (he same principle applies when you train and e"ercise your mind (he more you go into alpha, learn to visuali8e, rela", and tune into your intuition, the healthier and better your life becomes ,ote) 0ou may want to listen to the e"ercise first so there will be no surprises

#o&e A""li$ations
With practice you will also be better able to tap into your intuitive feelings or hunches !t 6ust takes practice, and the knowledge that it is possible and that you can do it !n Silva UltraMind Seminars the ma6ority of participants are able to tap effectively into their intuition by day two of the seminar and perform health case readings on people unknown to them !t is important that you continue to practice the Silva Centering 5"ercise regularly We encourage graduates of the UltraMind 5S/ System to practice it once a week for three months after they graduate Many of us continue to practice it at least once a week even after that

Once you have learned to rela" in a sitting position, if you want to find a more comfortable position - to stretch out in a nice reclining chair for instance - then do so +irst learn to enter deep, healthy levels of mind with conscious awareness - without going to sleep )fter you#ve learned this, then you can enter deep levels even when lying down comfortably, and you can still remain awake for as long as you desire &ow, let#s take a 2uick stretch break and then en6oy the Silva Centering e"ercise

1ose Silva used to demonstrate an e"periment on creativity with kids in his hometown of %aredo, (e"as 3e would ask kids to think of solutions to a particular problem while they were at the beta, or waking, level of mind 3e would then guide them to the alpha, or meditative level of mind and ask them to think of further solutions (he children were always able to come up with more ideas while at alpha

*oes your mind function more creatively when you#re at the alpha level of mind$
(here is sur"rising eviden$e for this, both from first-hand e"periences and laboratory evidence &apoleon 3ill, the best-selling author of Think and ,row -ich and The .aws o# Success believed that the human mind was capable of tapping into universal fields of intelligence to access ideas and inspiration

-a oleon Hill writes:

The great artists, writers, musicians and poets became great because they ac)uire the habit of relying upon the still0 s1all voice that speaks from within, through the faculty of creative imagination. t is a fact well known to people who have keen imaginations that their best ideas come through so5called 6hunches6. 3ill talks about how one inventor from Maryland, the late *r 5lmer K 7ates, used this techni2ue to come up with over .<< patents 7ates would sit in his soundproof laboratory e2uipped with a pad of writing paper

3e would shut off the lights and ponder on the known factors of the invention on which he was working 3e would remain in this position until ideas began to 2flash2 into his mind in connection with the unknown factors of the invention

On one occasion, ideas came so fast to 7ates that he was forced to write for almost three hours When the thoughts stopped flowing and he e"amined his work he found that they contained a minute description of principles that had no parallel among the known data of the scientific world Moreover the answer to his problem was intelligently presented in those notes (he greatest inventor of our time, Tho&as Alva /dison, used a si&ilar te$hnique 5dison was known for taking fre2uent naps in the middle of the day !t#s likely that during these naps he was entering the alpha level 3e would often come out of these naps with the solution to problems that had been bugging him 5dison was awarded 9-G; distinct patents and invented, among other things, the incandescent light bulb, the phonograph, the film pro6ector, and the first motion picture 5dison was known to have said, *!deas come from space (his may seem impossible and hard to believe but it#s true !deas come from out of space A

Where 1o 2deas .o&e 0ro&?

Where do creative ideas come from$ (he brain$ (he mind$ +or best-selling author Kichard 'ach, a Silva graduate, the idea came from a bird 'ach said this in an interview 2uoted in the &ovember 9:>. issue of 3arper#s 'a8aar A! was walking along one night, worrying about the rent, when ! heard this voice say, */onathan .i$ingston Seagull* 'ut no one was there ! had absolutely no idea what it meant When ! got home, ! suddenly had a vision of a seagull flying along, and ! began to

Silva !nstructor Wingate /aine told us the rest of the story during an instructor training session in %aredo not long after the book became a bestseller Wingate said that 'ach had written the first two-thirds of the book from a Adream-likeA e"perience where a big seagull appeared to him and said, ATake dictation& ( ha$e a stor #or ou%A 'ut the bird faded away before the completion of the story Wingate said that 'ach told him he did not (now how to get the bird to $o&e ba$( so that he $ould %inish the boo(, until he too( the #ilva $ourse (hen he knew how to get to that Adream0likeA level and how to invite 1onathan %ivingston Seagull to this creative level to tell him the rest of the story 'ach said in a Harper's 1a)aar article that even before taking the Silva training, he#d come to assume that Athere are certain #hidden# capacities and powers which can be taught ! think there is a terrifically pleasant principle behind e"istence - do what you love to do and you#ll be guided !t#s a lot like flying a plane, You have to trust what you $an't see A 1onathan %ivingston Seagull was an immediate hit (he book was a bestseller, and the movie based on the book was a huge hit !n fact, /onathan .i$ingston Seagull and the books that 'ach wrote afterwards helped to bring about a spiritual awakening on the planet, by helping people to understand and accept their own spirituality

2ntuition in the =usiness World

*oes this concept have applications in the world of business$ /rofessor 1ohn Mihalasky, /rofessor 5meritus of !ndustrial 5ngineering at the &ew 1ersey !nstitute of (echnology, seems to think so !n e"periments he performed with company C5Os he observed that the ./Os who "er%or&ed best in tests o% intuition also

Welcome to %esson @ 2s *Lu$(* Within Your .ontrol?
We now come to the premier techni2ues for harnessing your mind#s power to shape your life and move you towards your dreams and aspirations

We will teach you two techni2ues in this lesson

Affirmations +reative 8isuali"ation. !n our last lesson you learned how to use the alpha level of mind to gain creative ideas and inspiration 0ou are now ready for the ne"t step You will learn how to ta" into your &ind to sha"e your reality. /erhaps you#re looking to be more positive, to stick to your diet, to improve your golf swing or to end a bad habit We#ll show you how you can use affirmations and creative visuali8ation to reprogram your mind and reshape your attitudes and behavior

!t all starts with your imagination !magination is the ability to create an idea, a vision or an image of something new

!n creative visuali8ation, we use the power of imagination to create a mental image of what we want to accomplish or obtain

0our goal could be on any level

physical emotional mental spiritual 0ou might imagine yourself driving that 'MW you always wanted, owning a home in the country, married to your ideal mate, succeeding at your 6ob or having J9<<,<<< << in your bank account

&o matter what your goal, the techni2ue is basically the same 0ou imagine the desired outcome in your mind )t the same time, you repeat a positive affirmation about the goal (he affirmation is in the present tense magination is the beginning of creation. *ou imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will.

The #$ienti%i$ /viden$e

(here is strong scientific evidence that visuali8ation can be used to dramatically improve your results in sports, public speaking, performing arts and anything else which involves practice !n one study, )ustralian psychologist )llen Kichardson conducted an e"periment with basketball players making hoop shots 3e divided the players in three groups 7roup ) - was asked to practice their shots on a basketball court for .< minutes a day 7roup ' - was asked not to practice at all 7roup C - was asked to mentally rehearse shooting a basketball through a hoop for .< minutes each day )t the end of the study 7roup ) improved their hoop shot ability by .?= 7roup ', as e"pected, showed no improvement at all What was truly sur"rising, was that 7roup C improved by .@=, almost as much as 7roup ), even though they had not physically set foot in a basketball court (here is also overwhelming scientific evidence that visuali8ation can be used to heal the body *octors such as O Carl Simonton have been helping patients recover from serious illnesses such as cancer by combining visuali8ation with modern medicine (he patients often made dramatic improvements simply by visuali8ing their bodies behaving in ideal, healthy ways

We#ll look at more of this fascinating evidence in our ne"t lesson which will be on mind-body healing
What we#re going to suggest in this lesson is so&ething even &ore in$redible. 0our mind#s influence is not 6ust limited to improving your emotions, skills and physical body 0our mind can influence theworld outside your a""arent "hysi$al $ontrol.

!n other words, your mind can spawn ama8ing $oin$iden$es to move you towards your goals (he coincidences could be things that were seemingly unconnected to you and beyond your control The te$hniques we will tea$h you do not Cust &a(e you &ore %o$used on your goals. They dire$tly in%luen$e your reality. %aboratory evidence pouring out of universities such as /rinceton and Stanford has shown that volunteers are able to influence matter by their thoughts So far the evidence has been limited to effects on random number generators, dice and electronic e2uipment We will look at some of this evidence in %esson Seven What is still lacking is scientific evidence that visuali8ation can create AcoincidencesA in the physical world, outside your immediate control (his of course, is hard to test in a lab 'ut thousands of scientists and millions of other people in the world do believe in this because they have e"perienced it in their own lives !n short, 6ust because an effect cannot be tested in a lab, does not mean it does not e"ist Some of the greatest thinkers in the world - 5instein, 5dison, 1ung, Carnegie and 7oethe Cthe man with the highest recorded !N, .9<D - all believed in the power of the mind to create coincidences believe that the mind has the power to affect groups of atoms and even tamper with the odds of atomic behavior, and that even the course of the world is not predetermined by physical law, but may be altered bythe uncaused volition of human beings.

Let's ta(e a loo( at how you $an start a""lying these te$hniques.

=asi$ Te$hnique 7 - A%%ir&ations

)ffirmations are "ositive state&ents you re"eat to yoursel% while in a &editative or al"ha level o% &ind. )ffirmations are always done in the present tense, as if the action has already taken place (he concept was made famous by a +rench physician called 5mile Coue Coue was responsible for thousands of remarkable documented healings at the beginning of the .<th century 3is remedy was to combine western medicine with the power of affirmations /atients were made to repeat positive healing affirmations to themselves while in a rela"ed frame of mind Coue#s most famous affirmation was Aeveryday, in every way, ! am getting better and better A When done at the alpha level, affirmations tend to be countless times more powerful than when done at the beta, or waking state

Why $
'ecause when you rea$h the al"ha level o% &ind, your sub$ons$ious is brought to a $ons$ious level - this means it#s easier for you to convey commands directly to your subconscious

#everal a%%ir&ations that we use in the #ilva +ltra!ind se&inar in$lude)

! will always maintain a perfectly healthy body and mind /ositive thoughts, positive emotions, bring me all the benefits and advantages ! desire ! am learning to use more of my mind and to use it in a better way
You $an also $reate your own a%%ir&ations) %ooking for 6ob satisfaction$ (ry saying

! have a perfect career that ! truly love and en6oy ! have great opportunities for advancement and ! am earning a wonderful salary of QQQQQQQQQQ a year
%ooking to slim down$ (ry saying

! only en6oy eating the right types of healthy, nutritious foods that are good for my body ! love the feeling of increased energy ! get after e"ercising
or

5very day, ! am burning calories and getting closer to my ideal weight

%ooking to attract abundence$ (ry

!#m so happy and grateful now that money comes to me, in ever increasing 2uantities, through multiple sources, on a continuous basis
Other a%%ir&ations you $an use in$lude)

My relationship with QQQQQQQ is growing ! en6oy my work and am richly rewarded ! have enough time, energy, wisdom and funds to accomplish all my goals
=e%ore you start $reating your a%%ir&ation, note these i&"ortant rules)

1/ ,ffir1ations 1ust .e in the

resent tense/

0our subconscious mind does not think in terms of past, present or future !f you say, ! want to be an e"cellent golfer then your subconscious understands this as a statement of wanting What you then get is the wanting or desire to be an e"cellent golfer but not the actual abilityitself What you should say is A! am an e"cellent golferA 0our subconscious understands this as a statement of your present reality !t therefore works to make this reality true Kemember - replace 2 want...with 2 a&...

!/ 3ou 1ust .elieve that the goal is within your reach/

!f you repeat an affirmation, but at the same time you#re secretly thinking you cannot accomplish it, you hi6ack the process When you first start practicing this you should start with small believable goals )s you achieve these goals your confidence in yourself and in the power affirmations grows (his allows you to tackle greater and greater issues The best way to i&"lant an a%%ir&ation is to release your &ind %ro& all desire and intention. Merely state the suggestion to yourself without passion as a thing that is already so Something that is true is obvious and undeniable -- it does not need to be shouted or defended !t simply is Use repetition to reinforce the effects of the affirmation

"/ ,ffir1ations 1ust always .e done as a

ositive state1ent/

!f you#re trying to drop weight don#t say, *( am not o$erweight* !nstead say, *( am slim and health * When you see a phrase such as *( am no longer ill*, the dominant image in your mind is that of illness When you turn that around to a phrase such as *( am health and well*& the dominant image in your mind is then one of health and wellness Kemember - always turn the a%%ir&ation into a "ositive state&ent /ositive affirmations are e"tremely useful in causing fundamental change, not only in behavior and beliefs, but in the e"ternal conditions of life

When a suggestion is correctly in6ected into the subconscious mind, the effect is nothing short of miraculous !t does not show itself overnight, however, but is gradual and cumulative

=asi$ Te$hnique 5 - .reative Disuali'ation

While affirmations are good - Silva pioneered a techni2ue that is far more powerful that using simple affirmations (his techni2ue is called creative visuali8ation (his involves visuali8ing the end result of your goal or desire while you are in the alpha level of mind (he concept of creative visuali8ation has been known for ages !t gained renewed popularity in the 9:><s when a Silva graduate by the name of Shakti 7awain wrote a best-selling book about it 1ust like affirmations your visuali8ation should be done in the Apresent tenseA %ets say you#re looking to own a brand new car 0ou want to visuali8e yourself in the car and feel the moment as if it is happening this instant and not at some time in the future !n other words, %eel the sense of 6oy in owning the car, rather than the sense o% wanting or the sense o% desire for the car (o visuali8e effectively 1ose Silva suggests creating a mental screen in front of your eyes (his should be like the screen you see in a cinema !t should be forward, in front of your eyes, and raised at an angle of around .< degrees (he screen should be at least G feet in front of you Make the screen as large as you can, almost like a movie screen in a cinema

$ry it now/
Close your eyes and visuali8e the mental screen, raised slightly .< degrees above the hori8on, and at least G feet in front of you When you perform creative visuali8ation you will pro6ect images onto this screen 2% you are loo(ing to i&"rove your s"orts s(ills, visuali8e yourself playing the game perfectly See yourself making perfect moves, shooting every basket, making the perfect swing +eel the 6oy you feel when you play the game well 2% you are loo(ing to shed so&e "ounds, see yourself healthy and fit +eel the 6oy of having a beautiful body See people complimenting you 2% you're in sales, you can see yourself making the perfect pitches See your monthly commission statements showing ever increasing figures

/nhan$ing Your .reative Disuali'ation

!f you have difficulty visuali8ing use a techni2ue called strea1ing !n strea1ing you mentally describe what it is that you#re seeing Make the description as detailed as possible +or e"ample if you#re trying to visuali8e yourself driving a brand new car, mentally tell yourself, A!#m seein the dashboard, it has beautifully carved silver dials, the leather has tiny checkered patterns on it A )s you describe the image in detail you will find that the image also takes on more detail (his, in turn, gives you more things to mentally describe One feeds into the other and your imagined image becomes more and more vivid *on#t get stuck on the term Avisuali8ationA *ifferent people have different dominant senses The &ost $o&&on do&inant sense is the sense o% sight. (his is why for most people the process of visuali8ation works well Some people, however, may have a dominant sense of touch or hearing or smell (hese people may have difficulty Avisuali8ingA but may be able to accurately imagine sounds, smells or feelings +or these people it#s important to incorporate these senses into their Amental e"perienceA Someone who was born blind for e"ample, can still engage in creative visuali8ation, but rather then see images, they would create the mental e"perience by using their mental sense of smell, hearing, taste and touch

How to Increase the I1 act of Creative 5isuali6ation: 6. +ake the image as realistic as possible.
!ncorporate movement, make the screen three-dimensional See colors and shapes Use the streaming techni2ue if you have difficulty visuali8ing

7. 8eel emotions associated with the image

1oy, happiness, a sense of fulfillment 3ow would you be feeling if you had what you wanted$ !magine and e"plore this feeling ) thought without emotions has no energy and no force behind it empty +eel the emotions of having what you want !t is like running a car on

9. -ring in your other senses.

+eel the wind blowing on your face4 imagine the scents involved with the images +eel te"ture and temperature (he more senses you involve, the more real the image is to your subconscious mind 3ere#s one e"ample /icture an orange !magine the color of it !s it bright orange and ripe$ (hen picture yourself peeling the orange !magine the smell as you start to peel it +eel the 6uice flowing over your fingers (hen s2uee8e the orange and feel the flesh of the fruit 'ring it to your nose and imagine the odor of an orange !magine tasting it and bring back a

memory of how an orange tastes in your mouth )s you can see, the trick is to make the image as real as possible by using all of your senses and emotions Kemember, the &ore realisti$ the visuali'ation "ro$ess, the better and %aster the results.

>ow You .an Pra$ti$e

0ou can combine your affirmations with your creative visuali8ation to create a more powerful effect )s you#re imagining your goal, simply repeat your affirmation mentally, as many times as you feel necessary *on#t be discouraged if you do not get immediate results We are all at different levels of spiritual development and some of us have years of negative programming and negative belief systems to overcome 'ut overcome them you shall Creative visuali8ation can be such a powerful process when done at the )lpha level that 6ust five minutes a day of practice can undo years of negative programming +urthermore, once you get your first success your belief system gets strengthened and this will allow you to manifest your ne"t goal a little 2uicker Masters who practiceregularly find that they do not even have to go to a meditative level of mind and spend time repeatedly visuali8ing their goals ) mere conscious thought of their desire can set the gears in motion and create coincidences to direct them towards their goal 'efore we end this lesson we will share some other letters received from students who have taken the Silva UltraMind seminar or used the home study program Beep in mind that these students attended the seminar or used the home study course, both of which contain advanced techni2ues beyond the scope of this program One can still get e"cellent results from 6ust the basic techni2ues outlined in this program but you will have to practice much harder and start with smaller goals while you build up your belief system

Case Study on Healing

) si"ty-one year old man named +rank was diagnosed as having a fatal type of throat cancer 3is weight had dropped to :; pounds, he had trouble breathing and could barely swallow *octors placed his survival rate at ?= and even pondered whether he should be placed under radiation therapy, since the treatment might only add to his discomfort and not significantly increase his survival odds )fter much thought, the doctors decided to put him under radiation treatment anyway +ortunately for +rank, *r O Carl Simonton, then medical director of the Cancer Counseling and Kesearch Center in *allas, (e"as, was asked to participate in +rank#s treatment Simonton suggested that +rank himself had the ability to in%luen$e the $ourse o% his own disease and taught +rank a number of rela"ation and mental-imagery techni2ues

!he !reatment of 3isualization

0ran( had to visuali'e. . . the radiation he received consisted of thousands of tiny bullets of energy bombarding his cells4 his cancer cells as being weaker than the normal cells and thus unable to repair the damage they suffered4 his body#s white blood cells as coming in and swarming over the weakened cancer cells4 flushing the cancer cells out of his body through his liver and kidneys (he results were astonishing and far e"ceeded what usually happens when a patient is treated solely with radiation therapy +rank e"perienced almost none of the negative side effects - the skin and mucous membrane damage that normally followed such treatment !n a mere two months he had not only regained his weight and strength but all signs of his cancer had vanished

+rank is one of thousands of cancer patients that have benefited from imagery therapy through the Simonton 2ancer 2enter Cwww simontoncenter comD *r Simonton, a Silva graduate, was once asked to address the audience at a Silva Convention A)bout the Silva system,A said Simonton, A! would say it is the &ost "ower%ul single tool that ! have to offer patients A !n her part of the address, Stephanie Simonton, *r Simonton#s wife, talked about how they used the mental techni2ues at their clinic A/robably the single most important tool we have,A she said, Ais the &ental i&agery te$hnique A She then went on to tell the audience of the need for all of us to take personal responsibility for our health A!t is up to us to use the techni2ue that all of you who have had the Silva course have learned and to use it regularly,A she said !n this chapter we will teach you how to apply basic Silva UltraMind techni2ues to help you a$$elerate your rate o% healing 'ut first, let#s discuss a strange phenomenon - the widely observed but little understood, placebo effect

The !ysterious Pla$ebo /%%e$t

Scientists and doctors have long been pu88led by how certain patients have been able to heal themselves of life-threatening diseases *octors have found that a "atient $an trigger sel%-healing by the &ere belie% that they will be $ured (his is commonly called the placebo effect *octors are finding that many people manage to get cured when they are given fake medication, called placebos, which usually consist of nothing more than sugar pills or distilled water, and then told by their doctors that they were taking real medication (here is no e"planation for why the placebo effect works, e"cept that somehow, the patient#s belie# that they are getting cured triggers some sort of sel%-healing ability within the patient (he placebo effect is probably the best-documented way in which the mind is known to affect the body

(he placebo effect, using some of the most outrageous remedies, has worked e"ceptionally well with warts !n 9:-@, a physician conducted a double-blind study showing that placebos worked almost as well as sulpharsphenamine, the drug commonly used to treat warts at the time ?-= of patients given the actual medicine were cured 'ut of the patients given the fake medicine, which was nothing more than distilled water and told it was a genuine wart cure, @;= were cured

(he opposite also works

2% you .elieve so&ething is har&%ul to you, it tends to be. One study showed that 9: out of @< sub6ects developed asthmatic symptoms after inhaling a saline solution they believed to be allergenic (welve developed full-blown whee8ing and bronchial spasms, which disappeared completely three minutes after receiving another saline solution placebo (he researchers concluded that suggestion played a significant role in precipitating asthmatic attacks Weirder still - the placebo effect also works with surgery !n the summer of 9::@, a surgeon named 1 'ruce Moseley had 9< patients scheduled for an operation intended to relieve the arthritis pain in their knees )ll 9< were wheeled into the 3ouston Feterans )ffairs Medical Center, draped, e"amined and anestheti8ed )ll 9< were then dispatched to the recovery room and sent home from the hospital by the ne"t morning e2uipped with crutches and a painkiller )ll 9< men believed they had 6ust gone through a reliable medical surgery to cure them of their knee arthritis pain 'ut this was not the case !n fact, while two of the men would undergo the standard arthroscopic surgery for their condition - the scraping and rinsing of the knee 6oint - and three would have the rinsing alone, five would have no recogni8ed surgical procedure at all (heir surgery would be a placebo Moseley would cut the placebo patients# knees three times with a scalpel - to make it feel and look real, there had to be incisions and scars for the patient to believe he had undergone surgery - but that was it

(he placebo worked

Si" months after surgery, the 9< patients still didn#t know whether they had been faked out or not 'ut all o# them reported much less pain

(he placebo effect can be so powerful that all modern drugs have to be tested against a placebo before they are released to the public )nd many former treatments and drugs have been taken off the market when their healing properties were found to be solely due to the placebo effect

Other /viden$e %or !ind =ody 2ntera$tion

3ypnotism is another way to demonstrate the mind-body effect ) hypnotist can cause someone to trigger their body#s own healing mechanism at will 1ose Silva used to demonstrate how he could put someone into an hypnotic state of mind and then suggest to them that the pencil he was holding was red hot and that if the pencil touched their skin they would feel no pain but their skin would produce a blister One in five people would actually develop the blister from the touch of the pencil (he blister could then be made to disappear automatically, again with mere suggestion ) good hypnotist can even get a sub6ect to tan their skin on command )nother weird phenomenon of mind-body interaction is that of people with multiple or split personalities /sychologists have observed that when multiples switch personalities their body also shows dramatic changes 3 esight can impro$e or worsen, allergies can reappear or disappear and even brain wave patterns can change Multiples can also change their voice patterns in ways that even the best actors cannot emulate This leads to an interesting question. . .

:ust how much of your physical body is influenced by your belief system?
(he gap between mind and body seems almost non-e"istent 1ose Silva believed that as much as :<= of all physical ailments are induced and curable by the mind

The 3rowing A$$e"tan$e

(he scientific evidence for mind-body healing is well established and public acceptance is now mainstream ) 9::< 7allup /oll on )merican attitudes to paranormal phenomenon found that 5BE o% A&eri$ans had had su$$ess with &ental healing. (he May .<<9 7allup /oll discovered that A)mericans with the highest levels of education are more likely to believe in the power of the mind to heal the bodyA (he same 7allup /oll on )mericans# beliefs on the /aranormal, updated the statistics in 1une .<<?, showing that &ore than BBE believe in the $onne$tion between the &ind and the body in healing. (hese healing powers of the mind on both the physical and emotional have been demonstrated empirically, reflecting the power of placebos +urthermore, according to a famous survey published in 9::- in the &ew 5ngland 1ournal of Medicine, -@= of adult )mericans reported using at least one unconventional therapy in the past year (his includes meditation, yoga and visuali8ation techni2ues )nd finally, the 9::- &ew 5ngland 1ournal of Medicine survey found that alternative medicine $ a category which includes mind-body healing, energy healing and spiritual healing $ is most likely to be practiced not by the socially marginal or the cognitively defective but by affluent Cincomes above J-?,<<<D, college-educated people

=ut .an Your !ind >eal #o&eone /lse's =ody? 7et's as) a 1ore daring 8uestion/ Can you use your mind to heal a loved one - at a distance$
Some of the most surprising evidence for distant healing comes from psychologist William 'raud and his colleagues at The Mind Science Foundation of San )ntonio, (e"as 'raud#s studies, conducted over 9> years, involved having people mentally attempt to influence the nervous system of remote participants The results o% the study were si&"ly &ind blowing. The e$eivers

'raud would wire up the first group of people, known as recei$ers, to machines that measured up to seven different physiological responses such as blood pressure, skin conductivity and muscle tremor The #enders ) second group of people, known as senders, would be placed in a different room and asked to attempt to arouse or calm the receiver solely by thinking about them 'oth senders and receivers were ordinary people who had volunteered for the study

'raud#s -> e"periments involved GG? sessions, @@: people and 9- e"perimenters What 'raud found was that at the e"act moment the sender was asked to think of their receiver, the receiver would show a change in his or her physiological condition (he -> e"periments combined resulted in odds against chance of more than 9<< trillion to one in favor of distant mental interactions between the participants 2n short, the ability o% one "erson's &ind to a%%e$t another "erson's body is s$ienti%i$ %a$t.

=ut 4ust >ow Power%ul is it?

Okay, so we know that one person#s mind can somehow influence someone else#s physical body - but is the effect really powerful enough to make a difference in someone#s state of health$ )gain, the answer is sur"rising.

!he effects of distant healing have been proven to be significantly greater than many drugs deemed to be highly successful in medicine.
+or e"ample, numerous studies have shown that propranolol and aspirin are effective in reducing heart attacks 'ut their effects pale in comparison to distant healing 5ffect si8es of drugs are measured on a scale from < to 9 )n effect si8e of < <- in a medical life-or-death situation would mean that - out of 9<< people survived )n effect si8e of < would mean that an additional -< out of 9<< survived !n medical tests the effect si8e of aspirin on reducing heart attack is < <- (he effect si8e of propranolol was not much higher, at < <@ (hese si8es were sufficient enough proof for the government to authori8e the drug manufacturers to state that their products prevent heart attack 'ut the effect si8e of distant healing in 'raud#s e"periments was a surprising < .?

!his means that if 6;; people were going through a therapy with a success rate of 9<=, this success rate would go up to >;= with the addition of distant healing. lmost twice as many patients would be saved.
!n his studies, 'raud also discovered some strange properties of distant healing 3is volunteers were asked to participate in another e"periment where they would attempt to mentally calm down two groups One was a group of highly nervous people and the other a calmer group +irst, 'raud found that the distant healing effect was the strongest when the person on the receiving end actually had a serious need for healing (he effect si8e on the highly nervous group was far greater than on the calm group

More surprisingly, he found that the effect si8e on the agitated group by those trying to calm them down was only slightly less than the effect that people had on themselves when using rela"ation techni2ues !n statistical terms this means that other "eo"le $ould have the sa&e &ind-body e%%e$t on you as you $ould have on yoursel% and vice-versa

The =eginning
1ose Silva was born on )ugust 99, 9:9@, in %aredo, (e"as When he was four, his father died 3is mother later remarried, and he, his older sister, and younger brother moved in with their grandmother (wo years later he became the family bread-winner, selling newspapers, shining shoes, and doing odd 6obs !n the evenings he watched his sister and brother do their homework, and they helped him learn to read and write

3e has never gone to school, e"cept to teach

1ose#s rise from poverty began one day when he was waiting his turn in a barbershop 3e reached for something to read What he picked up was a lesson from a correspondence course on how to repair radios 1ose asked to borrow it, but the barber would only rent it, and only on the condition that 1ose complete the correspondence course e"aminations in the barber#s name 5ach week 1ose paid a dollar, read the lesson, and completed the e"amination Soon a diploma hung in the barbershop, while across town 1ose, at the age of fifteen, began to repair radios

)s the years passed, his repair business became one of the largest in the area, providing funds for the education of his brother and sister, the wherewithal for him to marry, plus eventually some half-million dollars to finance the twenty years of research that led to his mind-training systems

(he man who sparked Silva#s research was a psychiatrist whose 6ob was to ask 2uestions of men being inducted into the Signal Corps during World War !! A*o you wet your bed$A the )rmy psychiatrist asked 1ose was dumbfounded A*o you like women$A 1ose, the father of three, and destined one day to be the father of ten, was shocked Surely, he thought, the man knew more about the human mind than the barber knew about radios Why such odd 2uestions$ !t was this perple"ing moment that started 1ose on an odyssey of scientific research that led to his becoming one o% the &ost $reative s$holars o% his age (hrough their writings, +reud, 1ung, and )dler became his early teachers (he AoddA 2uestions took on deeper meanings, and soon 1ose was ready to ask a 2uestion of his own, !s it possible, using hypnosis, to i&"rove a "erson's learning ability - in fact, to raise his ! N $ !n those days ! N was believed to be something we were born with, but 1ose was not so sure (he 2uestion had to wait while he studied advanced electronics to become an instructor in the Signal Corps When he was discharged, with savings gone and J.<< in his pocket, he began slowly to rebuild his radio repair business )t the same time he took on a part-time teaching 6ob at %aredo 1unior College where he supervised three other teachers and was charged with creating the school#s electronics laboratories +ive years later, with television on the scene, his repair business began to flourish and 1ose called a halt to his teaching career 3is business once again became the largest in town 3is workdays ended about :pm each night 3e would have dinner, help put the children to bed, and when the house was 2uiet, study for about three hours 3is studies led him further into hypnosis What he learned about hypnosis, plus what he knew about electronics, and some +#s on his children#s report cards brought him back to the 2uestion he had raised earlier - $an learning ability, the 2.F., be i&"roved through so&e (ind o% &ental training?

.an Learning Ability =e

aised Through !ind Training?

1ose already knew that the mind generates electricity - he had read about e"periments early in the century that revealed the )lpha brain wave rhythm )nd he knew from his work in electronics that the ideal circuit is the one with the least resistance, or impedance, because it makes the greatest use of its electrical energy

$hen he as)ed hi1self:

Can we lower our brain impedance$ !f so, would the brain work more effectively by doing so$

1ose began using hypnosis to 2uiet the minds of his children and he discovered what to many appeared to be a parado" 3e found that the brain was more energetic when it was less active )t lower fre2uencies the brain received and stored more information (he crucial problem was to (ee" the &ind alert at these %requen$ies, which are associated more with daydreaming and sleep than with practical activity 3ypnosis permitted the receptivity 1ose was looking for, but not the (ind o% inde"endent thought that leads to reasoning things out so they can be understood 3aving a head full of remembered facts is not enough4 insight and understanding is necessary, too

:ose ;inds the ,nswers with Mental $raining

1ose soon abandoned hypnosis and began e"perimenting with mental training e"ercises to 2uiet the brain yet keep it more independently alert than in hypnosis (his, he reasoned, would lead to improved memory combined with understanding and hence to higher ! N scores (he e"ercises from which Silva#s techni2ues evolved called for rela"ed concentration and vivid mental visuali8ation and ways of reaching lower levels Once reached, these levels proved more effective than the fully awake level, the 'eta level, in learning

$he #roof

3is children#s grades improved sharply over a three-year period while he continued to improve his techni2ues 1ose had scored a new discovery - a very significant one, which other research, principally biofeedback, has since confirmed 3e was the first person to prove that we $an learn to %un$tion with awareness at the Al"ha and Theta %requen$ies o% the brain )nother discovery, an e2ually astonishing one, was soon to come

A Word o% .aution
When it comes to belief in 5S/, people tend to fall into four different groups

&hich one are you' ,isbeliever

(he first group is thedisbelie$er (hey simply refuse to believe in any phenomenon that cannot be e"plained by &ewtonian physics ,o a&ount o% s$ienti%i$ eviden$e will $onvin$e the& otherwise

'keptic
(he second is the skeptic (his is someone who does not believe in 5S/ because it goes against his knowledge of science 3owever, the skeptic is open-minded and when given strong scientific evidence they would be willing to admit that 5S/ does e"ist ) skeptic would $ast aside testi&onial eviden$e but will give strong $onsideration to the results o% s$ienti%i$ resear$h

(autious -eliever
(hird - the cautious belie$er% (his person trusts that 5S/ e"ists but will not believe every claim they read about (hey de&and s$ienti%i$ "roo% or testi&onial eviden$e ) cautious believer would find this series of lessons interesting because it is backed up with scientific evidence and references to respected outside sources

!rue -eliever
(he fourth group, thetrue belie$er strongly believes in 5S/ and is likely to also believe anything they read or hear !f you are one - we encourage you to e"ercise caution &ot everyone who claims to have 5S/ has it to an e"tent strong enough to charge you money for /hone psychics are almost all phonies )nd very few street psychics are actually worth paying for When it comes to a little understood phenomena, such as 5S/, it is better to be a cautious believer or a skeptic rather than a true believer

1o We Jnow >ow it Wor(s?

) number of theories have been but put forth on how 5S/ works but these are still nothing more than theories (oday, it is generally accepted that 5S/ does e"ist and everyone has it but science has yet to identify how or why it works 3owever, we do not need to know how it works to use it - we only need to know that it does work (hink of the sun +or thousands of years we have used the energy of the sun for light and heat 0et, nobody knew what the sun really was !t was only in the last 9<< years that humankind was able to understand that the sun is large star made up of hydrogen and helium atoms going through a thermo-nuclear reaction !t#s the same with 5S/ - we do not yet know how it works or why 'ut we do know that it is real )nd as any Silva UltraMind grad will tell you - once you learn to use it - you $an $reate &any "ositive and bene%i$ial e%%e$ts in your li%e.
