Close to thirty years ago, I sat in a chair in a small hotel meeting room holding a 3 X 5 card with some basic information written on it about a sick person I knew.
In front of me was a young man with eyes closed.
He sat silently for a few minutes, then spoke to me about the sick person.
He wasn't 100% accurate, but he got some of the general facts correct.
A hit.
When it was my turn, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I went to level, focused on the sick person my partner had written about on his card.
Somehow, I saw a white outline around the person's right foot.
Another hit.
They had an injury there.
We practiced some more.
Nearly everyone in the room had such hits.
We didn't know the people we were "reading" while at level, but somehow we could give some information about them.
100% accurate like a doctor examining them? No.
Did the healing energy we sent to them help them to heal? I don't know.
Was it close enough to shake your skepticism? Yes.
That was the conclusion of a remarkable 4 day Silva Basic Mind Control Course.
Jose Silva studied brain waves and, many years before it became well-known, discovered that when our brainwaves are at the alpha level, we think differently.
(When we're awake and active, we're at beta.
) The course was an organized conglomeration of alpha programming, positive thinking, and memory techniques.
Silva students have gone on to create a use variety of mind control techniques, machines, CDs, books and seminars.
Just about everyone in the field is a Silva graduate.
Jose went on to create more advanced seminars, including the UltraMind ESP system.
Ed Bernd Jr was a long time Silva student, lecturer and staffer.
This book includes what he has to say, and includes contributions from many other students and their stories and techniques.
The basic alpha wave abilities are accepted by scientists.
That is the level of dreams and the twilight state between waking and sleeping.
You can more easily visualize.
You can learn faster and better.
Do you actually tap into some higher power and gain the ability to know things beyond the normal five senses (ESP)? I don't know.
I do know that one night shortly after seeing my grandfather at Christmas, I went to level and could not visualize him as anything except a skeleton.
I was so scared that the next morning I called my mother just to make sure he was okay.
He was then -- but about three weeks later he died of a stroke.
ESP? I don't know.
I think it's more likely he was going downhill and my unconscious mind noticed signs of it during Christmas Day.
I also know that in March of that year I decided I needed to get married.
I began programming that on June 13 of that year I'd get married.
It seemed unlikely given that I didn't even have a date for Saturday night.
But I soon met someone and we were married on June 14 -- because 13 is an unlucky number! The best introduction to Silva Mind Control is probably still the Basic course, though they've changed the format.
Or read the first book, The Silva Mind Control Method by Philip Miele and then go take the basic course.
If you want to learn more, then go for this Ultramind ESP system.
