- 0:00laura
- 0:02hello i'm laura silva and i'm here with
- 0:05my father jose silva one of the
- 0:07questions that we're asked above all
- 0:09questions as we meet people throughout
- 0:11the world when we travel presenting
- 0:13lectures is what is the silva method
- 0:16would you explain to us in your own
- 0:18words what is the silva method
- 0:21well laura the silver method is many
- 0:24things really
- 0:25but
- 0:26to be able to get the
- 0:28foundation doing beginning points
- 0:31correctly let's say it's a
- 0:34in so many words
- 0:36it's a method
- 0:38of mind training
- 0:40that develops the control
- 0:42of our mind
- 0:44method of
- 0:45exercises of mental training
- 0:48that gives us control because it is said
- 0:50laura that usually it is believed
- 0:53that a non-controlled mind
- 0:55is always
- 0:57destructive
- 0:58so we say to be constructive enter
- 1:00creative we need to discipline our mind
- 1:04and then we call control of our minds
- 1:07when we when we say mind control or we
- 1:09mean our own self mind control not
- 1:11somebody else's minds okay
- 1:13self or out or mind control
- 1:16so it's a series of mental exercises
- 1:19mental gymnastics whereby we develop the
- 1:22faculty of visualization and imagination
- 1:25to be able to better control our minds
- 1:27that's what it means so what you mean is
- 1:30mind control actually could be also
- 1:32explained as mind development
- 1:35well actually when you learn something
- 1:37that you can do with your mind you're
- 1:38developing your mind to delve into other
- 1:40things yes
- 1:42okay
- 1:43so in order to begin uh to explain this
- 1:46laura we need a little history because
- 1:48actually people would like to know how
- 1:50did you ever get started on something
- 1:51like this okay
- 1:53so to begin with the first experience
- 1:56that i had was when i joined the service
- 1:58when i was drafted
- 2:00at the time i was married with three
- 2:02kids
- 2:04and uh talking to a psychiatrist
- 2:06this man attracted my attention
- 2:09i observed the man talking to other
- 2:11people
- 2:12questioning other
- 2:13inductees
- 2:15and
- 2:15he attracted my attention because i felt
- 2:17that the man
- 2:18is asking silly questions
- 2:21and i wondered
- 2:22uh being a lieutenant colonel
- 2:25i could imagine the salary he's getting
- 2:28to answer the questions i wonder what
- 2:30phil is in what kind of silly questions
- 2:32were they well when it came my time
- 2:35the first question was you see i'm 30
- 2:37years of age
- 2:38married with three kids
- 2:40and he asked the question do you wet
- 2:41your bed
- 2:43i thought i had heard wrong
- 2:45how was that sir i said do you wet your
- 2:47bed you mean at night anytime
- 2:51well uh i didn't know that uh 30 year
- 2:54old people with their beds you know i
- 2:55said no sir i don't wet my bed
- 2:58i wondered i thought it was silly the
- 3:00question you know then the next question
- 3:02was do you like women and i said what
- 3:04the heck is going on here
- 3:06i said alex i'll answer the question sir
- 3:08in this matter i'm married with three
- 3:10kids you figure it out how's that huh
- 3:13and that's what what field are you in
- 3:14really why do you silly questions he
- 3:17said well may they might may sound silly
- 3:19to you but there's a reason for it i'm
- 3:22sure there is because the government
- 3:24would be paying you the salary that i
- 3:26believe you're getting just for asking
- 3:28the questions is you're right
- 3:29then i'm asking the questions how did
- 3:31you ever get interested in such a field
- 3:34and he said well it's a long story but
- 3:36they don't care which way the questions
- 3:38and answers go they want to see if it
- 3:40makes sense either way i think i'll
- 3:42figure that out later of course
- 3:44so then he said you look this book up
- 3:46and read it and you will know how i
- 3:48became interested he gave me the title
- 3:50of a book the history of psychiatry
- 3:53now that was the beginning of me getting
- 3:55involved in the study of psychology
- 3:57that's where my control started really
- 3:59it seems like you've always had a very
- 4:00inquisitive and
- 4:03and then
- 4:04a mind looking for information i always
- 4:07been like this curiosity they say you
- 4:09know
- 4:10what makes a watch tick you know this
- 4:12kind of thing
- 4:13and getting involved in trying to
- 4:15discover new things and the inventions
- 4:17and so on i have always been attracted
- 4:19to this this is why my field since i was
- 4:2240 years of age i started to study
- 4:24electronics
- 4:26and that's my my field electronics my
- 4:28professional electronic technician
- 4:30so this is how we can
- 4:32begin looking into the field of
- 4:34psychology
- 4:35and standing on my own as a hobby
- 4:38when i got out of the service
- 4:39i really took it very seriously in going
- 4:42out to hear lectures and participate in
- 4:44some lessons that some of these
- 4:46top-notch psychologists and
- 4:48psychiatrists were teaching just to sit
- 4:50in and hear these people what are they
- 4:52teaching how do they get started you
- 4:54know
- 4:55and i continued to study psychology
- 4:58along the study of psychology i came
- 5:00across the term hypnosis
- 5:03now i wanted to know what that is
- 5:06so i started to look into it investigate
- 5:08the field
- 5:09and i started under some of the big
- 5:11names in in in the field of hypnosis and
- 5:14hypno analysis
- 5:16i became proficient in it to be able to
- 5:18hypnotize they call it
- 5:20to cause an individual to enter a state
- 5:22of mind whereby
- 5:25the person can go or could go through
- 5:27surgery without the use of chemical
- 5:29anesthesia and that's as deep as you can
- 5:31hypnotize anybody so i became proficient
- 5:34in that
- 5:35but then again
- 5:36kept on studying psychology and along
- 5:39comes the term parapsychology now what
- 5:42is that
- 5:43para psychology
- 5:45i investigated the field and found out
- 5:47that organizations with the people
- 5:50some scientists uh top high-ranking
- 5:52scientists interested in the
- 5:55extraordinary mental faculties of human
- 5:57beings
- 5:58that whenever they heard about an
- 6:00individual they had this extended sense
- 6:02perception type of mind that would bring
- 6:05him into the lab and to test them to
- 6:07figure out what makes him tick you know
- 6:10i figured at first i thought that maybe
- 6:12these people also
- 6:14could teach people how to develop the
- 6:15faculty in talking to dr ryan when the
- 6:18top
- 6:19parasitologists in the world
- 6:21he said no there's no way you can
- 6:23develop it
- 6:24it's something that god has given us god
- 6:26gifted individuals some have a lot of it
- 6:28some have very little of it some have
- 6:30none of it at all
- 6:31well it didn't make sense to me i
- 6:33figured i don't think god discriminates
- 6:35you know to give us more or something
- 6:38that doesn't give others the same amount
- 6:40whatever my own thinking anyway
- 6:43but he stuck to it he said you cannot
- 6:44develop it it's something like the iq
- 6:47factor you cannot develop the size
- 6:49called size factor the intuitive factor
- 6:51is the same name for it to be able to
- 6:54sense information with your mind
- 6:56as compared to sensing information with
- 6:58your biological senses
- 7:00so
- 7:01this is this is i got pretty involved in
- 7:04psychology but kept on studying
- 7:07the field of psychology i came across
- 7:09the term
- 7:10electrocephalography
- 7:12the electronic equipment to major brain
- 7:15waves
- 7:16boy that really attracted it was a nice
- 7:18story for me you see my field is
- 7:20electronics i'm i'm i'm
- 7:23full
- 7:25fully developing in the field that i'm i
- 7:27mean expertise though so it's full
- 7:29circle for me that is
- 7:31uh as i started experimenting and
- 7:33footing around we say with the idea of
- 7:36the electrocephalograph
- 7:38the equipment to major brainwaves and to
- 7:40measure the output the strength of your
- 7:42brain output you see your brain
- 7:44vibrates
- 7:45so many times per second like your heart
- 7:48beats so many times per minute
- 7:51and the brain prefers i found prefers to
- 7:53function more than 5 10 and 20
- 7:55vibrations more than any other vibration
- 7:58but then again to begin with we wanted
- 8:00to know i wanted to know uh one of the
- 8:02first frequencies detected in the fetus
- 8:04for instance what are the first
- 8:06frequencies that the brain starts
- 8:08operating on
- 8:09well we i found out that you could
- 8:11measure brain waves in the field stage
- 8:13even when the fetus is in the mother's
- 8:15womb before being born or born you see
- 8:18so the first frequencies are the lowest
- 8:20frequencies of brain
- 8:22and that's called the delta frequency we
- 8:24have a chart here that indicates those
- 8:27frequencies here you see the depth of
- 8:29frequency is in the black band
- 8:31and we'll discuss it shortly later right
- 8:33at the bottom in the black band and
- 8:35that's between one half and four cycles
- 8:37per second
- 8:38well this is the area that the fetus is
- 8:41functioning on before being born
- 8:43then i found out that the frequencies
- 8:46keep on increasing the overall average
- 8:48of a child keeps on increasing according
- 8:50to age
- 8:51we find that
- 8:53if you're 10 years old that's more tense
- 8:54than any other vibration in your brain
- 8:5715 more 50s and so on it seems like it's
- 9:00getting is growing at a higher frequency
- 9:03rate or frequency
- 9:05situation or range according to the age
- 9:08meaning that once you get to be 20 years
- 9:11of age you get stuck on 20 you make a
- 9:14girl out of 20 25 34 years of age the
- 9:17overall average brain frequency of human
- 9:19beings is 20 vibrations per second
- 9:22but the overall brain frequency of a
- 9:24child depends on the age it's lower
- 9:27always lower than the overall average
- 9:29rate frequency of a mature adult
- 9:31so then i start to look into what is
- 9:33going on here
- 9:35our human development we call it
- 9:37the child grows in cycles and they are
- 9:40called
- 9:41seven-year cycles of growth
- 9:44every seven years is a different
- 9:46dimension for growth i would say and
- 9:48they're called when you're growing and
- 9:50adding more to your body
- 9:52they're called anabolic cycles
- 9:55so we're supposed to grow to peak
- 9:58growth
- 9:59in seven anabolic cycles
- 10:01meaning seven times seven is 49
- 10:05so the child starts growing the first
- 10:06seven year anabolic cycle the child
- 10:09starts to learn how to talk
- 10:11to walk
- 10:12to
- 10:13do things that
- 10:14interested in many areas
- 10:17and but the mind of a child we find
- 10:19functions only what is called
- 10:21inductively
- 10:23the child of about seven years of age
- 10:25while developing set of teeth and so on
- 10:27he does not develop the analytical
- 10:29processes of the mind which means the
- 10:31child does not know how to analyze
- 10:34he only responds to the environment
- 10:36and he adjusts himself to the
- 10:37environment
- 10:39so the environment is in control of the
- 10:40human being up to age seven
- 10:43now between seven and fourteen the
- 10:45second anabolic cycle
- 10:47the child develops a new set of teeth
- 10:50the male starts talking into mature
- 10:53adult
- 10:54level between 7 and 14 and the female
- 10:57goes into her monthly rhythm now here
- 11:01the
- 11:01mind starts functioning analytically
- 11:04which means
- 11:05the deductive faculty of mind
- 11:08appears on the scene between 7 and 14
- 11:10years of age
- 11:12now here the analytical processes
- 11:15sometimes
- 11:16this is called the critical
- 11:18consciousness
- 11:20the so-called
- 11:22individual who can analyze be skeptical
- 11:24if he wants to or whatever reject or
- 11:26accepting someone and his own reasons
- 11:28why and so forth
- 11:29well the
- 11:30deductive faculty of mind which means
- 11:33intelligence that's what it means has
- 11:35come into being
- 11:36so we find that human intelligence
- 11:38reigns between seven and fourteen years
- 11:40of age is when it starts appearing
- 11:43within the human being male or female
- 11:46and this is the most important section
- 11:48of the mind where we should learn
- 11:49everything we are about to learn between
- 11:517 and 14
- 11:53which means this is the center of human
- 11:55intelligence we call it
- 11:57now we are distinguishing it between the
- 11:59center of biological or animal
- 12:02intelligence
- 12:03you see the first
- 12:04the first cycle sometimes called an
- 12:06octave
- 12:08an octave
- 12:09seven subdivisions of anything
- 12:11active and active is a full dimension an
- 12:14active is something compared to a
- 12:15kingdom
- 12:16a kingdom is self-supporting with its
- 12:19own rhythm kingdom which means something
- 12:22like
- 12:23the kingdom of music
- 12:24composed of seven notes not eight it's
- 12:27called an active anyway
- 12:28because number eight is the indication
- 12:31that we're getting into another octave
- 12:33the first of the second actor so up to
- 12:35seven is a full active a full team
- 12:36though
- 12:38a full dimension the dimension of music
- 12:40called the kingdom of music seven notes
- 12:42the dimension of pure white light the
- 12:44kingdom of pure white light it's seven
- 12:47colors of the rainbow and so on and the
- 12:50dimension for biological bodies living
- 12:52on the planet it's called seven chakras
- 12:54and so on so it's a full kingdom here
- 12:58seven years is a full kingdom a full
- 13:00active
- 13:01it's a full dimension so the charlie in
- 13:03the second kingdom second active
- 13:06second anabolic cycle develops the
- 13:08faculty
- 13:09deductive faculty of mind develops the
- 13:12analytical
- 13:13faculty of mind which means the center
- 13:16of human intelligence resides within the
- 13:18second anabolic cycle and frequency wise
- 13:21there's a correlation there there is
- 13:23because actually we say
- 13:25the second anabolic cycle ranges between
- 13:287 and 14 cycles and the center is 10.
- 13:31and that's called in the the chart
- 13:34in the blue area
- 13:35the center of the green is ten cycles
- 13:38it's called the alpha dimension or
- 13:41kingdom
- 13:43of mind see and brain activity
- 13:46so this has become very popular now
- 13:49because now we understand where human
- 13:51intelligence functions
- 13:53the center of the brain frequency
- 13:55spectrum our full spectrum on the
- 13:57average is 20 vibrations 10 is the
- 13:59center well here laura is in connection
- 14:02to the right brain hemisphere we didn't
- 14:04know that
- 14:06and the right brain hemisphere when we
- 14:08are not able to use it for thinking we
- 14:10call it the subconscious
- 14:12so this is why people and scientists are
- 14:14saying that what we're doing is teaching
- 14:17people how to function consciously
- 14:19within the subconscious so what you mean
- 14:22is that there's
- 14:23many people walking on this planet who
- 14:26only function at a certain frequency of
- 14:28brain which is probably a high frequency
- 14:30of beta without learning how to use the
- 14:33subconscious consciously and only
- 14:35actually using part of their brain or
- 14:37their human potential only one brain
- 14:40hemisphere versus two brain hemispheres
- 14:42that's correct in other words in the on
- 14:44this chart here again we have in the
- 14:46blue area the beta region is called you
- 14:49see those names those words those the
- 14:51terms were selected by scientists is the
- 14:54greek alphabet we know
- 14:56but they're not in the proper order of
- 14:58human development they're the order of
- 15:00how they were discovered
- 15:02so because at the time that they were
- 15:03looking into the brain the equipment was
- 15:05not so so sensitive not so sophisticated
- 15:08as you have it now and the only
- 15:11frequency they could detect was the
- 15:12strongest one of the brain so the
- 15:14strongest one was the alpha
- 15:16this is what i found out later to in my
- 15:18own research you see so here is the
- 15:20second anabolic cycle in the first
- 15:23anabolic cycle
- 15:24the this is called the
- 15:26level of
- 15:27animal intelligence all animals function
- 15:30within the first
- 15:31actor
- 15:32between or within the first anabolic
- 15:35cycle between one and seven cycles per
- 15:37second
- 15:38so enable the center of biological or
- 15:40animal intelligence is five vibrations
- 15:43but the center of human intelligence is
- 15:45ten vibrations and at the time vibration
- 15:48point is the connection to the right
- 15:49brain hemisphere
- 15:51now we keep on developing and humans we
- 15:54find i have found in the research that
- 15:56i've done here
- 15:57that uh on the average about nine out of
- 16:00ten human beings bypass
- 16:03the connection with to the right brain
- 16:05hemisphere
- 16:06and in the third antibiotic cycle which
- 16:09reaches up to 21
- 16:11they get stuck on 20 and actually they
- 16:13do all their thinking and acting on 20
- 16:15vibrations of the brain
- 16:17when it seems like that we should
- 16:20learn to first do our thinking on 10 the
- 16:23second anabolic cycle and act on 20 the
- 16:27third anabolic cycle now these people 90
- 16:30of humanity are thinking and acting on
- 16:33the wrong dimension
- 16:34they're thinking of dimension that
- 16:36should be only acting
- 16:37the thing they mentioned is where human
- 16:39intelligence resides the center of human
- 16:42intelligence in the alpha so we should
- 16:44all learn to do our thinking at alpha
- 16:47the center part of the brain frequency
- 16:50spectrum and do our acting on the 20 at
- 16:53the top limit of the range in turn using
- 16:56more of our human potential and human
- 16:58faculties it seems that the alpha region
- 17:00that you speak of
- 17:02is not only the area where we can
- 17:04then trigger right brain hemisphere
- 17:06function or use more of our brain and
- 17:08mind but it's also the most synchronized
- 17:11i believe you've i've heard you say and
- 17:12the most strongest or the strongest of
- 17:15all the frequencies that's why i was
- 17:16detected first
- 17:18okay in research
- 17:20when i said that the brain prefers to
- 17:22function more than 5 10 and 20 my
- 17:25curiosity was which of the three is the
- 17:27best can we say that and how can we go
- 17:30about saying that it is so i figure well
- 17:33let's say being orderly or synchronized
- 17:36is one more synchronized or another they
- 17:38would say that one that's more
- 17:39synchronized is better is one more
- 17:42stronger than the other then the
- 17:44strongest one we say would be better so
- 17:45i went for that looking for
- 17:47synchronicity of the brain frequency
- 17:49output in 5 20 20 and the strength of
- 17:52the output of the brain
- 17:53i found that the weakest one of the
- 17:55three
- 17:57the
- 17:57least organized or the most
- 18:00desynchronized
- 18:01was the 20 vibration where most humanity
- 18:04functions 90 of people take an act on
- 18:07and the strongest of the three was the
- 18:0910 vibrations of the brain the strongest
- 18:11and the most synchronized the most
- 18:13stable of the three
- 18:15so then we should be thinking what's the
- 18:17strongest and actually the weakest how
- 18:20does a person get to think how difficult
- 18:22or how easy is it for a person to learn
- 18:25to trigger right brain function to be
- 18:27able to go into that second octave that
- 18:29you talk about as far as human
- 18:31development and use the alpha
- 18:33frequencies to do their thinking in
- 18:36how easy is it for a normal human being
- 18:38to do that and what are the benefits
- 18:42well first of all we found that 10
- 18:43percent of humanity know how to use it
- 18:46naturally
- 18:47they don't need to be taught
- 18:48we don't know how they came about it
- 18:50they for the to begin with they're using
- 18:53that dimension to think with they think
- 18:55on 10 electron 20 which is the ideal but
- 18:58then we started to label these people
- 19:01the center thinker or the people who
- 19:03those are thinking at the center of the
- 19:05brain frequency spectrum the normal
- 19:08average spectrum is 20
- 19:10and the center of course is 10. so those
- 19:13who do their thing and intent we call
- 19:15them centered thinkers
- 19:16of course the ones that do their
- 19:18thinking on the extreme end of the band
- 19:21we call them not off-centered but
- 19:23eccentrics of center which same thing
- 19:26so
- 19:27eccentrics there are 90 percent of
- 19:28people are eccentrics in their way of
- 19:30thinking and only 10 percent are
- 19:32centered in their way of thinking now
- 19:33our idea was can we get the eccentrics
- 19:37to become centered
- 19:39and this is where the research came in
- 19:41trying to figure out
- 19:42can this be done can we use yoga for
- 19:45instance
- 19:46together to slow down the brain waves
- 19:48like yogis do
- 19:49and i found out the yogis went to five
- 19:51cycles
- 19:52and didn't help us any we want to stop
- 19:54at 10
- 19:55because 10 is the center of human
- 19:57intelligence
- 19:58a person going to 5 is like a person
- 20:01being 5 years of age his mind functions
- 20:03only inductively they don't have the
- 20:05analytical capacity or faculties there
- 20:09so
- 20:10looked into the
- 20:12zen type zen type meditation again we
- 20:15could use it because it went to five
- 20:16again everybody wanted to go to the
- 20:17deepest levels
- 20:19and so did transcendental meditation
- 20:22and hypnosis all went to five i couldn't
- 20:26use their systems it was too deep there
- 20:28was no analyzing being done at that time
- 20:30there's no freedom of mind perhaps
- 20:31that's correct the individual just enter
- 20:33the dimension they call it passive
- 20:35meditation and the way to see if
- 20:37something comes to them they cannot
- 20:39activate their minds to analyze or look
- 20:42into anything try to
- 20:44find answers to problems for instance
- 20:46because there's mental activity
- 20:48if they activate their mind they get
- 20:50other level come out to 20 again so they
- 20:52couldn't do it so we didn't want that we
- 20:54weren't losing faculty of the deductive
- 20:56faculty of mind the analytical processes
- 20:59we wanted a system to stop on ten nine
- 21:01on five so we started to investigate and
- 21:04uh started working with individuals
- 21:07uh i told dr ryan that we had developed
- 21:09one individual that could do this dr
- 21:11wright wouldn't believe it he said
- 21:13you're fully yourself there's no such
- 21:14thing maybe the person that you work
- 21:16with
- 21:17had the ability already and you thought
- 21:19you trained them and he could be right
- 21:21but we did pre-test we know about
- 21:23pre-testing then
- 21:24so then we trained from 19
- 21:2844 for instance in 1953 from 1953 to
- 21:311963 we trained 39 more
- 21:35individual trains
- 21:36during what dates between 1953 and 1963.
- 21:41we trade 39 individually trained we knew
- 21:44we could do it then to get him to stop
- 21:46on 10.
- 21:47so the doctor right still wouldn't
- 21:49believe it same but then i started
- 21:51working with groups
- 21:5220
- 21:53people in the group 20 females 20 males
- 21:56and 50 1550 between 1963 and 1966 at
- 22:00trade groups and to see how long would
- 22:02it take or can i trade a group instead
- 22:04of a person individually we find out
- 22:06that we could do it
- 22:07so then this is how god will get started
- 22:10you're talking about 1953 and you're
- 22:12talking about first being exposed to the
- 22:15idea of brain development or of mind
- 22:19use and mind faculties back in the 40s
- 22:22it must have been very challenging for
- 22:23you getting into areas of mind
- 22:25development such as hypnosis and
- 22:27parapsychology which seemed to be things
- 22:30that were so unknown at the time and how
- 22:33did the public react to that how did the
- 22:35people react to to you getting involved
- 22:37with such we're here radar
- 22:40they thought i was working with the
- 22:41devil
- 22:43and uh
- 22:44religions what drinks communicate me my
- 22:46own religion
- 22:48thing that i was working for the devil
- 22:49to see
- 22:50it got to a point that they didn't know
- 22:51what i was doing i think how can you
- 22:53judge something that you don't know
- 22:54that's been done
- 22:56you don't even know what personality is
- 22:57i'm they're dealing in parasiticality so
- 22:59they stopped getting after me because of
- 23:01that they didn't know what they were
- 23:02what i was doing really and when they
- 23:04found out that i was doing something
- 23:05good that people liked and people wanted
- 23:07more of i mean
- 23:08then they came on my side see but at
- 23:11first it was tough the newspaper would
- 23:13take our ads
- 23:14uh on sunday massa they would say don't
- 23:16go over there well we'll practice it
- 23:18because that's on the devil you know
- 23:19this kind of thing so we had about ten
- 23:21years of that until finally we got over
- 23:23it that was about in the early fifties
- 23:25then
- 23:26between 1944 1953
- 23:29but then by 1966 we came out to see if
- 23:33people liked what we had
- 23:34and would pay for our services because
- 23:37we were spending too much time and money
- 23:39in research
- 23:40and then
- 23:41we wanted to give it a try and we were
- 23:43invited to
- 23:44weldon baptist university to lecture on
- 23:47whether we had
- 23:49discovered and they liked what we had
- 23:51and we created some projects here that
- 23:54they went for and they wanted more and
- 23:56then from here people started to talk
- 23:57about it
- 23:58what they were doing at weyland am i
- 24:00really heard about it lubbock heard
- 24:01about it and they invited us to come
- 24:03lecture for them then finally we started
- 24:05to put the class together to teach
- 24:07people because they wanted to be trained
- 24:09a group of people wanted to be tracing
- 24:10can you teach us what you taught over
- 24:12the abuela what you talked about yes
- 24:15when you come and teach us here that's
- 24:16how mango got started
- 24:18the first paying class in other words
- 24:20and now you at this point in time you're
- 24:22worldwide with millions of graduates
- 24:24throughout the world who are
- 24:25successfully using the method can you
- 24:27imagine that you went to wayland baptist
- 24:29university to lecture what is your
- 24:32educational background
- 24:34well my education background we need to
- 24:36talk about a little later on because i
- 24:38have none so it's a it recover me a
- 24:41couple of seconds to explain i've never
- 24:43been to school i've never seen a class
- 24:45i have not learned my abcs in english or
- 24:47spanish
- 24:48and luckily i have learned to read and
- 24:51write the spanish language and to read
- 24:53and write the english language also
- 24:56only god knows how that happened really
- 24:58because i sometimes do not remember how
- 25:00it came about it was so slow that before
- 25:02i knew i was reading spanish and writing
- 25:05it and english and writing it this is
- 25:07how i became interested in the field of
- 25:09electronics when i became 14 years of
- 25:11age and when i started to study
- 25:13a correspondence course in electronics i
- 25:15could understand it then
- 25:17in an english language but i've never
- 25:19gone to school i have no formal
- 25:21education
- 25:22they say that i have a doctorate
- 25:24well the doctor that i have is an
- 25:26honorary award
- 25:27in humanities because the work i've done
- 25:30but not because it's academic it's not
- 25:32an academic degree it's an honorary
- 25:34award
- 25:35it seems like you've been to
- 25:36universities not for education but to
- 25:38educate
- 25:40it's interesting to thought you know
- 25:41because i i've gone to so many
- 25:43universities and colleges in the united
- 25:44states and around the world only to
- 25:46teach her to lecture but never to learn

- 26:16it's it's always been known to me that
- 26:18the underlying goal of the simple method
- 26:20is problem solving to solve problems not
