0:09brian scott
0:11today i'm just so grateful to return to
0:15robert b
0:15stone robert b stone wrote a book with
0:18jose silva called the silva mind control
0:20method for business managers
0:23it has a number of wonderful chapters on
0:25how to deal with
0:26common manager problems and triggering
0:29creative ideas and how to replace
0:31manager doldrums there's one chapter
0:35that actually does a very good job of
0:37summarizing the silva method
0:39and we can use it beyond just being a
0:41manager but it comes from a perspective
0:44for the business manager but if you
0:46don't know about the silva method this
0:47is a good place to start
0:50i highly recommend getting the entire
0:52book it's got
0:53a bunch of cool techniques the silva
0:56method for getting more of your mind to
0:58work for you
1:02i wish i could explain easily how you
1:04can relax and slow your brainwaves to go
1:07to the subjective dimension
1:09i wish i could put it in a nutshell all
1:11the ways
1:12you can use the subjective dimension to
1:14benefit yourself
1:16and your work i wish i could explain
1:18concisely how the subjective dimension
1:21is not limited by time and space and how
1:24you can function creatively in that
1:25dimension
1:26in ways that defy objective dimension
1:29laws
1:30i believe that many decades of research
1:33and experience in this field will enable
1:36me to do this for you i believe that the
1:38assistance of my writing associate dr
1:40robert b
1:41stone who has had scores of self-help
1:43books published
1:44will enable me to get this done i
1:47believe
1:48that the skills of the publisher staff
1:50will assure success in this goal
1:52i expect that success i expect a useful
1:56guide for managers
1:57i expect it to be used widely by
1:59business managers and executives
2:02these have been desires beliefs and
2:05expectations i have gone
2:07to the subjective dimensions repeatedly
2:09to visualize the project
2:11the normal process of creation has taken
2:13place the book
2:15is in your hands i am continuing the
2:18process
2:18i visualize you putting the book down
2:20relaxing to go
2:22to the subjective dimension in order to
2:24experience and learn the silva method
2:26and using it to make this a better world
2:29to live in
2:31we learn about the objective physical
2:33world in school
2:34objectively but we do not learn about
2:36the subjective dimension
2:38at school the only way we can learn
2:40about it is subjectively
2:42in school or college we cannot close our
2:45eyes turn off the physical realm and go
2:47to the imagination or subjective
2:50dimension
2:51when we tried that in elementary school
2:53we got our knuckles wrapped in high
2:55school
2:55we had to do an extra assignment in
2:57college we got labeled
2:59you can now go to the imaginative
3:01subjective dimension without fear of
3:03reprisal
3:05instead go to that level with
3:07expectation of reward
3:1010 brain cycles per second the silva
3:13method of mental training
3:14helps a person to function with full
3:16awareness at a state of mind
3:18usually associated with hallucinating or
3:21being half asleep
3:22it is a state we pass through when
3:24falling asleep at night
3:26and awakening in the morning about 90
3:29percent of all people function at 20
3:31cycles per second
3:32of brain pulsations when awake
3:36they do their thinking and problem
3:37solving at 20 cycles
3:39so they do their physical working and
3:41their mental working at the same brain
3:43frequency
3:45the other 10 percent do their thinking
3:47at 10 cycles per second
3:49so they think at 10 cycles and work at
3:5120 cycles
3:53you cannot be working at 20 cycles it is
3:56the optimum level for physical work
3:59but you can be thinking at 20
4:02cycles the optimum level for thinking is
4:05about 10
4:06cycles at about 10 cycles the right
4:08hemisphere more fully joins in the
4:10thinking process
4:12intuition is activated clairvoyance is
4:15turned on
4:17these cycles are energy pulsations that
4:20are measurable
4:20with brain electroencephalograph
4:24equipment the dominant frequency is
4:27called beta
4:29alpha theta or delta going from rapid
4:31when under stress to slower
4:33when relaxed to slower still when asleep
4:38we call 10 cycles alpha actually it is
4:41defined
4:42more broadly beta 14 to 21 or over
4:45alpha 7 to 14 theta 4 to 7
4:49delta a half to 4.
4:53the middle of alpha is 10 and a half if
4:55you divide the usual
4:56maximum brainwave pulsation rate 21 by 2
5:00you also get 10 and a half for our
5:02purpose we will simplify the matter by
5:04using the word alpha and 10 cycles
5:06interchangeably we accept the 10 cycle
5:10brain frequency to be the center
5:12of human intelligence it is the
5:14crossover point where both brain
5:16hemispheres
5:17right and left function according to the
5:19need of the moment
5:21it is the optimum frequency at which to
5:24educate
5:24human intelligence in the use of all its
5:28sensing faculties
5:29only 10 percent of us think at this
5:32optimum
5:33frequency naturally the rest of us need
5:35to be trained to do so
5:37inner voice friend or foe the xyz
5:40corporation is on its collective toes
5:43everybody is waiting for the go command
5:45from the executive officer of the
5:47company
5:48the feasibility study is a beauty the
5:50most recent market analysis looks right
5:52on the money
5:53even the projections at best illusionary
5:55figures seem solid
5:57all the ingredients for sound decision
5:59making are here
6:00and all point in the direction go but
6:03that go command
6:04never comes the executive officer has
6:06listened to another voice
6:08deep down inside within a mysterious
6:10chamber in his mind
6:12something is whispered no let's hold off
6:14on this project he tells his staff
6:17we have to concentrate on ongoing
6:18projects first later it turns out that a
6:21better approach to the project has been
6:23developed
6:24intuition wins again this executive is
6:27one of the 10 percent
6:28he developed the ability to listen to
6:30his inner feelings otherwise known as
6:32gut feelings intuition or perception
6:36some prefer to call him lucky jp morgan
6:39was lucky one of the greatest business
6:41tycoons of this
6:42country he was known to visit fortune
6:45tellers to become more effective in
6:46hearing his intuitive voice
6:48another giant of american business
6:50cornelius vanderbilt consulted
6:52clairvoyance
6:54a test was conducted at rutgers
6:56university some years ago in which
6:57businessmen were pitted against
6:59computers the men were asked to predict
7:02what number
7:03would come up next from the computer
7:05which was programmed to produce random
7:07numbers
7:08the businessmen who headed successful
7:11businesses
7:11did far better than the other less
7:13successful businessmen
7:15when confronted with the results the
7:17successful businessmen
7:19admitted they had often ignored
7:21expensive
7:22engineering marketing or consultants
7:24reports and made decisions on instinct
7:26don't tell my stockholders to business
7:29executives educated and scientifically
7:31oriented management techniques
7:33hunch and gut feeling are dirty words as
7:36bad as esp
7:37psychic or clairvoyant but we are
7:40emerging from the dark ages
7:42business is now showing its respect and
7:44even
7:45seeking ways to amplify that inner voice
7:49training that inner voice the silva
7:51method is tried and true
7:53four million graduates of the training
7:55can attest to its successful use
7:57in business and in private life the
8:00executive 30 hour
8:01silva method course is for developing
8:03executives to be clairvoyance
8:05it is taught in three full days or the
8:07equivalent thereof usually over a three
8:09day weekend
8:11anywhere in the united states where a
8:13group requests it the book is both the
8:15backup textbook
8:16for the course in a manual for the
8:18business managers
8:19and executives who wish to enhance their
8:21intuitive and clairvoyant capabilities
8:25reading is objective it instructs you to
8:28train yourself to function
8:29subjectively it does not train you the
8:31way attending a course trains you
8:33but if a business executive or manager
8:36conscientiously follows
8:38the instructions in this book a new
8:40dimension in thinking will be developed
8:41a subjective dimension
8:43and that means a new dimension for
8:45solving problems
8:46making sound decisions and performing
8:49effectively
8:50the executive 30-hour course is
8:52concentrated
8:54it can produce clairvoyant executives in
8:56three days
8:57only because of the presence of a
8:58skilled trainer able to lead you through
9:00these subjective experiences
9:02that activate right brain functioning
9:04using this book
9:06the time element must of necessity be
9:08less concentrated
9:10you are leading yourself through
9:12subjective experiences
9:13following instructions you have just
9:15read this requires one small step
9:18at a time or more specifically five to
9:20fifteen minutes a day the total amount
9:22of self-training is about the same
9:24as that required for the intensive
9:26training in total elapsed
9:28training time but now that time in these
9:30smaller increments is spread over
9:32a larger period and the three days
9:34become about 50 days
9:36some executives may take longer some may
9:38be able to shorten the time
9:40all will acquire new skills which will
9:42begin to emerge long before
9:44those training days are completed and
9:47which will make the time invested
9:49a miniscule expense for the professional
9:51and business benefits that result
9:54for those business executives and
9:56managers who expect to take the 30-hour
9:58course or taking it
9:59or have already taken it this book
10:00provides an introduction course textbook
10:03and reinforcement manual combined man
10:06was once intuitive
10:07the complexities of the objective
10:08civilized world have suppressed that
10:10ability
10:11the silva method restores that ability
10:14for most of us
10:15it is a new way of thinking genius-like
10:17incredible
10:18superhuman for all of us it is more of
10:21the mind for business and personal
10:23success
10:24amplifying the inner voice an editor of
10:27a national women's magazine states when
10:29i read a manuscript
10:30only intuition can say this truth
10:33readers will like it
10:35she calls this secret personal knowledge
10:38dr jonas salk developer of the polio
10:40vaccine says
10:41intuition is something we don't
10:43understand the biology of
10:45but it is always with excitement that i
10:47wake up in the morning wondering what my
10:49intuition will toss up to me
10:51the gifts from the sea i work with it
10:53and rely upon it it's my partner
10:56another scientist likened intuition to
10:58cosmic fishing
10:59you feel a nibble then you've got to
11:01hook the fish
11:02unfortunately too many of us fishermen
11:04ignore the nibble
11:05we get a hunch light a cigarette and
11:07forget it
11:08precisely how the mind puts things
11:10together is currently being charted
11:12we are beginning to know more about how
11:14the brain retrieves fragments of
11:16knowledge from
11:17the subconscious memory banks of neurons
11:19and fuses
11:20them instantly with new information but
11:23what
11:24continues to elude researchers is just
11:26how the brain utilizes
11:28information not stored in those neurons
11:31information at a distance or information
11:34that has not taken place yet
11:36we can only accept for now that the
11:37right brain functions in a timeless
11:40spaceless realm and then go about using
11:42it profitably
11:44the first thing we need to do is go
11:45within where the voice is located
11:48in effect analyzing it this process of
11:51going within is called meditation
11:53meditation can be passive where you
11:56relax
11:57blissfully in the joy of inner self this
12:00is what is generally understood by the
12:01term meditation
12:03it can also be active dynamic this is
12:05where you relax blissfully as before but
12:07then you use your imagination in some
12:09creative way
12:11this is when the intuition is activated
12:13to provide answers and to solve
12:14problems india is a poverty ridden
12:17country engulfed in problems yet india
12:19is the source spring of meditation
12:22india's meditative techniques are
12:23passive
12:24in 1981 my writing associate dr stone
12:27went to
12:27adjar india at the invitation of the
12:30theosophical society
12:31whose international headquarters is
12:33located there he was asked to teach
12:35dynamic meditation
12:37one would think it would be like
12:38carrying coals to newcastle for a
12:40westerner
12:41to teach meditation in india however
12:43using the mind in meditation to solve
12:45problems
12:46was a new concept in india his lectures
12:49were increasingly attended
12:51now that visit has been followed up by
12:53other silva method lectures
12:55classes in many parts of asia are
12:57breaking attendance records
12:59it is to be hoped that the
13:01problem-ridden countries of the world
13:03will activate intuition
13:05to help solve them that is already
13:07underway with a silva method explosion
13:09in central and south america
13:12the business manager is a problem
13:14written microcosm
13:15he needs to begin the amplification of
13:17the intuitive voice first by
13:19learning passive meditation and then by
13:21extending that state into dynamic
13:23meditation
13:26screening out stress they say that an
13:28apple a day will keep the doctor away
13:30whether or not apples are in season try
13:32meditation to keep the doctor away
13:34by refreshing your physical self the
13:36simple act
13:37of getting comfortable in a chair
13:39closing your eyes and taking a deep
13:41breath
13:41is a boon to every cell of your body the
13:44brain included
13:45but when you deepen that relaxation and
13:48the method is just as simple
13:49every vital organ is able to rejuvenate
13:51itself
13:52the physical health of the body is prima
13:55fascia evidence of the well-being of the
13:57brain
13:58the brain runs the body the stress of
14:01the beta world the world of your human
14:03relations at home or in business is
14:04killing
14:06doctors used to think that half or all
14:08diseases
14:09were psychosomatic that is mind
14:11affecting body
14:12the effect of emotions attitudes and
14:14feelings were making us sick
14:16today the medical profession accepts a
14:18figure closer to a hundred percent
14:20and maybe by the time this page reaches
14:21your eyes that figure will be reached
14:25cancer is one of the holdouts but recent
14:27research shows that stress causes cancer
14:29to worsen
14:30and spread in laboratory animals vernon
14:33reilly chairman of the microbiology
14:35department at pacific northwest research
14:37foundation was
14:38quoted in the press as saying that there
14:40is a dramatically higher percentage
14:42of new cancer growth when mice are
14:44placed under laboratory stress
14:47which casts doubt on past studies using
14:49mice because they increased cancer
14:51was attributed to substances being
14:53tested
14:54when it may have actually resulted from
14:56laboratory stress
14:57yes people can get sick from stress
15:00certainly stress depletes you prolonged
15:03stress has been found to reduce the
15:05white blood cell count
15:06that means resistance goes down this
15:09translates
15:10into you can get a headache from the
15:12deadline you are working against
15:14you can get ulcers from the upcoming job
15:17cut back
15:18you can get the flu because of that new
15:20supervisor unless you are able to screen
15:22out stress
15:24sitting comfortably in a chair closing
15:26your eyes and taking a deep breath is
15:28the way to begin
15:28but there is more defusing stress with
15:31meditation
15:32meditation is the first step in the
15:34silva method when you meditate you go to
15:36alpha and alpha you are stress free
15:38there's no way to bring fear anxiety or
15:41animosity with you to alpha
15:42that is beta stuff those feelings are
15:44present they will anchor you in beta
15:47if they intrude at alpha you will be
15:49ending your meditation
15:51so alpha is a stress-free state is it
15:53any wonder that your body eats it up
15:55how do you meditate there are many ways
15:58to do it
15:59music mantras chants gongs incense all
16:02are helpful
16:03aids to meditation but not exactly
16:05appropriate for the business executive
16:08the silva method is appropriate for
16:09managers and executives because it does
16:11not introduce
16:12any devices it uses the mind to mind
16:15itself
16:16it supplies a simple natural method to
16:19first relax the body and then to relax
16:21the mind
16:22it needs to be in that order because if
16:24the body is not relaxed
16:26it is like an attention demanding child
16:28it does not permit the mind to relax
16:31tight belt uncomfortable chair shoes
16:33pinch
16:34give me this give me that so the first
16:37you relax the body
16:38then the mind it is not easy to relax
16:41the body or the mind in the middle of
16:42the day
16:43you're going to learn to do this first
16:45at the easiest time of day
16:46when you first wake up it will then be
16:49an easy matter to
16:50use your skill to recreate the relaxed
16:52experience anytime you wish
16:55why will you wish it because you will
16:58enjoy the feeling
16:59you will find out that your body
17:01responds you feel healthier
17:03your levels of energy improve and you
17:05function better as a manager
17:07this will be just a smaller part of
17:10bigger and better advantages to come
17:11like avoiding burnout
17:13like becoming a genius how to meditate
17:18i'm now going to give you the initial
17:20steps to get in control of the alpha
17:22level
17:23this is where you must start your
17:24training from this page on you
17:27are instructed to carry out even before
17:29you do the procedures which
17:31have already read about in the previous
17:32chapters and we those which will come
17:34later
17:35when you awake in the morning go to the
17:37bathroom if you have to then go back
17:39into bed
17:41close your eyes and roll them slightly
17:42upward about 20 degrees
17:45now count backwards slowly from 100 to
17:481.
17:49do not count out loud count mentally to
17:51yourself
17:52count slowly waiting about one second
17:56between numbers
17:58feel yourself going deeper and deeper
18:00within
18:01when you reach the count of one you
18:03would be ready to reprogram
18:05yourself for specific benefits and to
18:08release your imagination
18:09for problem solving but this must wait
18:12until you
18:12practice more instead enjoy the blissful
18:15serene state for a few minutes
18:17then use the coming out procedure the
18:20silva method for coming out is to say
18:22mentally
18:23i am going to count from one to five
18:25when i reach the count of five i will
18:26open my eyes feeling wide awake feeling
18:29fine
18:29and in perfect health feeling better
18:31than before
18:33one two three when i open my eyes at the
18:37count of five i feel wide awake
18:38in perfect health better than before
18:41four or
18:41five eyes open wide awake
18:45better than before and this is so
18:48this is all there is to it but there are
18:50ways to go wrong in ways to get better
18:52results
18:53one way to go wrong is to attempt
18:55meditation if you are intoxicated
18:57emotionally involved or just hyperactive
19:00alpha is a longer way off
19:02when you are in a high beta state such
19:04as this
19:05alpha is close by when you first awaken
19:09when you wake up and go to the bathroom
19:11set your alarm clock for 10 to 15
19:13minutes
19:13in case you fall asleep you will not
19:15have to do this after practicing and
19:17getting
19:18alpha more under control always use the
19:20same method of going
19:22in and coming out after 10 days count
19:25only from 50 to 1.
19:27after 10 more count only 25 to 1
19:30and after 10 more days 10 to 1 will
19:32bring you
19:33to your alpha level coming out remains
19:36one to five
19:36open your eyes at the count of five no
19:38sooner no later
19:40the discipline is essential to
19:41controlling your mind
19:43when you have completed forty days of
19:45practice the last ten counting ten to
19:47one
19:47you are ready to shorten the procedure
19:49to five to one and to begin using the
19:51alpha
19:52level for a purpose any purpose you
19:54desire
19:55so you will have a five to one method to
19:57enter and a one to five method
19:59to come out of your meditating once you
20:01become a passive meditator in the way
20:03described
20:04you are able to become a dynamic
20:06meditator that is the beginning
20:08of managerial benefits
20:11changes during meditation nothing
20:13happened it was nice but i did not feel
20:15anything different
20:16i don't think i was meditating these are
20:18common reactions to the first
20:20experiences of meditation
20:22you relax you enjoy the peace you end
20:24your relaxation
20:26you are back where you started this is
20:27not exactly so changes have occurred
20:30during your meditation
20:31that are measurable we have already
20:33discussed the changes in your brainwave
20:35pattern
20:36the slowing of brain pulsations tests
20:38made on meditators
20:40at the thorndike memorial laboratory a
20:42part of the harvard medical union at
20:44bodistan city hospital
20:46and also at the university of california
20:47at irvine showed that even novices
20:50slowed both their oxygen consumption
20:53and their carbon dioxide elimination
20:56considerably
20:57the respiratory rate and the volume of
20:59air breathed declined
21:00blood pressure was lowered blood lactate
21:03concentration dropped
21:04this being a measurement of anaerobic
21:06metabolism
21:07that is metabolism in the absence of
21:09free oxygen
21:12you do not monitor those physiological
21:14factors when you close your eyes and
21:15meditate
21:16you are more inclined to look for
21:17changes in your awareness since you can
21:19still hear sounds
21:21since you are still aware of where you
21:22are and what you're doing since you
21:25can still think about this or that you
21:26believe nothing happened
21:28the meditative level is a natural state
21:31you go into it daily when you daydream
21:33or relax
21:34there is nothing weird about it no
21:36sirens go off when you reach it
21:38there is no formal announcement what you
21:41are doing is getting in control of it
21:43once you have meditation under control
21:45you can use it for a purpose
21:48it may seem childish to practice
21:50something so simple for 40 days
21:52but each experience acts as a reference
21:54point for the next
21:56that is why the procedure must be the
21:58same same place
22:00same time methodology introducing
22:02variables slows progress
22:04as you practice physiological benefits
22:07are occurring
22:08every cell of your body every vital
22:10organ all the tissues and muscles
22:13are celebrating your relaxation they
22:16delight in it
22:17they are able to use the hiatus from
22:19stress to restore themselves
22:22being awake is stressful for the average
22:24person it means being open to all the
22:27stressful thoughts of the work a day
22:29world
22:29of things to be done of human events to
22:31be dealt with
22:33when a large insurance company in
22:34honolulu had much of its staff take the
22:36silva method training course
22:38within two days a sixty-year-old man
22:40with crippling arthritis in his hands
22:42demonstrated to the class that he had
22:44regained
22:45full mobility in his fingers in another
22:47class a woman
22:48who warned the lecturer that she had
22:50colitis and might have to interrupt the
22:52meditations to go to the bathroom
22:54reported that the colitis had
22:55disappeared headaches end
22:57lower back pain is relieved nerves
23:00become steady
23:02nothing happened no bells did not ring a
23:04voice did not say welcome to the state
23:06of meditation
23:08but you may have added to the length of
23:09your life biofeedback and meditation
23:12training
23:13sp manager of a branch bank was
23:15convinced that his meditation was going
23:17nowhere
23:18he was plagued with the thought that
23:20others might be doing it but somehow it
23:22was escaping him
23:24it was interfering with his confidence
23:27it was suggested that he test himself on
23:29a small device called
23:30galvanic skin reactor a standard
23:32biofeedback device
23:34sp set down at a table placed two of his
23:37fingers on the padded terminals and
23:38turned it on
23:40there was a beeping sound that could be
23:42adjusted from fast to slow
23:44he adjusted it to the critical point
23:46between the two extremes
23:48the moment sp closed his eyes and turned
23:50them slightly upward
23:51there was an audible slowing down
23:55this deceleration of the beeping sound
23:57continued during the countdown until it
23:59was definitely at a slower rate
24:01when sp counted himself back up the
24:04beeping sound accelerated back to its
24:06original faster rate
24:07sp was all smiles he had received
24:10concrete proof
24:12that he was doing it the gsr measures
24:14the skin resistance
24:15changes that are brought about by
24:17differing levels of adrenaline
24:19in the blood an excited person has less
24:22skin resistance due to a high level of
24:24adrenaline
24:26a relaxed person has high skin
24:27resistance due to a lower level of
24:29adrenaline
24:30the instrument detecting low skin
24:32resistance beeps at a fast rate
24:34when the instrument detects high
24:36resistance the beeps slow down
24:38this is of course the principle of the
24:40polygraph or lie detector
24:43some disciplines and therapies use
24:45biofeedback devices
24:46as their main tool for learning patients
24:49learn how to lower their blood pressure
24:51improve the heart rhythm get rid of
24:53headaches and end
24:55many troublesome psychosomatic health
24:57problems with biofeedback devices
25:00although silva method graduates do not
25:02require biofeedback equipment
25:04many take advantage of its availability
25:06to take them beyond the basic training
25:08to deeper levels of mind and to
25:10reinforce their programming
25:12available equipment goes beyond the
25:14simple device just described
25:16which we call trainer one to more
25:18sophisticated trainers such as the
25:20silva educator this device holds the
25:23first united states patent that makes
25:25use of the fact that human concentration
25:27turns on an educational program this
25:30instrument turns on a motivational tape
25:32or your own
25:33company's discourse only when you reach
25:35your alpha level your most receptive
25:37state
25:38for concentration and learning
25:40biofeedback equipment is always helpful
25:42but not necessary
25:43it is not necessary to you at this point
25:45in your initial experiences with the
25:47alpha level
25:48what is necessary is that you accept
25:50your meditation as
25:51being meditation if you are worried
25:54about whether you are relaxing
25:55you indeed have something to worry about
25:57your worrying worrying about relaxation
26:00is the ideal methodology to use
26:02to prevent relaxation worry is stress
26:06the opposite of relaxation the best
26:08advice
26:09anyone can give you on this point is to
26:12accept that you are meditating
26:14regardless of its depth be comfortable
26:16about
26:17being comfortable be relaxed about your
26:19relaxation
26:20if you get uptight about relaxation you
26:23are getting in your own way
26:24do it enjoy it and know that it gets
26:28better and better
26:30tips for deepening meditation
26:34based on the experience of others and
26:35the results of decades of research here
26:38are some ideas for improving
26:40your initial experiences with meditation
26:42and accelerating your progress
26:44one eyes turned slightly upwards is an
26:47easy step to forget
26:48but it is important for reasons that we
26:50do not yet understand
26:52turning the eyes slightly upward at
26:53about 20 degrees
26:55above the horizontal plane of sight
26:57triggers alpha
26:59two take a moment now to refresh your
27:01memory of the feeling of letting go
27:04make a fist tighten it tighten it more
27:07then let it go the instant of letting go
27:09is the feeling of physical relaxation
27:12do it again with an ankle do it with
27:14your jaw
27:15it feels so good to let go before
27:18closing your eyes
27:19tire them by staring at a spot on the
27:21ceiling about 45 degrees above your
27:24normal plane of seeing try to keep from
27:26blinking
27:27do not turn your head up turn your eyes
27:30up without lifting your head
27:31when you feel you must blink and
27:33certainly after no more than a half
27:35minute of staring
27:36close your eyes and continue with your
27:38meditation in the usual way
27:41four before ending your meditation with
27:43the one to five count up
27:44tell yourself mentally each time i relax
27:47this is the way i go deeper and faster
27:50from passive to dynamic meditation if
27:52you have too much to remember when you
27:54meditate
27:55you could be making it more difficult to
27:56go from beta to alpha
27:58you already have enough to do and you
28:00need to experience this procedure
28:02daily for 40 days in order for it to
28:04become shorter and more automatic
28:07each repetition is a reference point for
28:09the next time
28:11the more reference points you have the
28:13greater the
28:14faculty and ease of meditating it
28:17becomes familiar ground to you
28:19in 40 days when it is no longer strange
28:21for a busy person like you to take a few
28:23minutes of your valuable time
28:25to do nothing you are ready to make the
28:27transition from passive meditation
28:29to dynamic meditation at that time
28:33picture objects familiar to you
28:34preferably an object containing color
28:37you might select an orange or a lemon
28:39you might picture a fresh crisp head of
28:41lettuce or
28:42a fresh crisp 100 build whatever object
28:45you decide on
28:47hold it in your mind's eye for a few
28:48seconds if it disappears
28:50welcome to the club we are all in the
28:53habit of jumping from one thing to
28:54another
28:55remember that drunken monkey so do not
28:57get
28:58upset with yourself permit new thoughts
29:01to intrude like actors on a stage but
29:03since you are the playwright
29:04let their roles take them off stage when
29:07they have had their say and bring
29:09back the original picture once this is
29:12working to your satisfaction
29:14move to more complex images that involve
29:16not only color
29:17but some movement some suggestions might
29:20be white clouds drifting across a
29:22beautiful blue sky
29:24drops a morning dew on a sunlit rose
29:26reflecting all the colors of the rainbow
29:28like diamonds
29:29a babbling brook you are to visualize
29:32away from your body
29:33imagine the picture or scene to be out
29:36there
29:37if you visualize the picture or scene to
29:39be in the area of the eyes or eyelids
29:41you are using biological senses the eyes
29:45visualizing away from your body keeps
29:47you at alpha
29:48seeing with the eyes brings you back to
29:50beta normal vision is at beta
29:53visualizing is at alpha how to increase
29:56your visualizing skill
29:59each time you position yourself
30:00comfortably in bed close your eyes
30:02turn them slightly upward and count
30:04backward from five to one
30:06spend a few minutes visualizing before
30:09bringing yourself up
30:10one to five visualization and
30:12imagination are two faculties that
30:14contribute to clairvoyance
30:16you may feel that holding simple
30:18pictures in your mind is a waste of time
30:20it's max of daydreaming why picture this
30:23or that
30:23this erroneous universal concept about
30:26visualization and imagination
30:27is the reason more people are not
30:29clairvoyant
30:30the few minutes you spend visualizing
30:32each morning is activating idle brain
30:34neurons and putting them
30:36into harness to work for you the right
30:38brain neurons it is so
30:40important for the business executive to
30:42do this that i am asking you to
30:44practice during the day as well as when
30:46you awaken
30:47during the day while reading stop at a
30:49word that you can relate to a past
30:51experience
30:52and make a mental picture for instance
30:54if you read the word house
30:56stop and remember a house that you have
30:58seen
30:59and visualize it bring back a memory
31:02you have of that house do the same when
31:05you hear people talk
31:06if the name of something is mentioned
31:08that you have seen in the past and you
31:10can convert it to a mental image do so
31:13next extend these mental images into
31:15scenes like mental movies
31:18one important mental image dynamic
31:21meditation
31:21is creative it programs you and it
31:24programs other people it programs events
31:26the pictures you put on your mental
31:28screen are shadows of things to come
31:31stop for a moment haven't you been doing
31:34this right along
31:35visualizing everybody does business
31:37managers included
31:39what do you visualize you picture your
31:41problems you worry you worry about your
31:43status
31:44your quotas your deadlines your
31:46obstacles your problems
31:48what are you really doing to those
31:50problems as you sit quietly picturing
31:52them
31:52with your visualization you're
31:54reinforcing them
31:56with the silva method you no longer
31:58think in terms of problems you think in
32:00terms of solutions
32:02what a turnaround takes place
32:05since you are involved in the picture
32:06you need to begin visualizing yourself
32:09in practice sessions a woman looks in a
32:12mirror when she fixes her hair
32:13but does not really pay attention to the
32:15whole visual image
32:16similarly a man looks in a mirror when
32:18he shaves and combs his hair
32:20but takes his visual image for granted
32:23as a result you are likely to find it
32:24easier to picture an
32:25orange than to picture yourself here's
32:28how to correct this
32:29look in the mirror memorize your face
32:31close your eyes
32:32turn them slightly upward and put
32:35yourself on your mental screen
32:36open your eyes and see how well you did
32:40close them again and repeat the image do
32:43this several times until you are
32:44satisfied
32:45that you are able to see yourself
32:48realistic imagery
32:49some people are able to picture in great
32:51detail and in color
32:53naturally this is an excellent start
32:56toward becoming clairvoyant
32:58but it is not essential as you begin to
33:00visualize daily you get better and
33:01better
33:02what is essential is having the concept
33:04of something
33:05then the picture follows naturally close
33:08your eyes now
33:09turn them slightly upward and picture a
33:11whole green watermelon being cut in half
33:14so that you can see inside what did you
33:17see beside the green of the outside
33:19you probably saw the red meat the black
33:21seeds
33:22perhaps the white inside rind but i did
33:25not ask you to see that
33:26you saw it automatically because of your
33:28memory of the entire concept
33:30of watermelon if you had never seen a
33:32watermelon before
33:34you would be in trouble with that
33:35picture but because you have seen a
33:37watermelon
33:38the details of the picture popped right
33:40into your mind
33:42try not to picture this do not visualize
33:45a white polar bear in a pink bikini
33:48did i hear you laugh you had no way of
33:50keeping the concept from being pictured
33:52by your mind
33:54now picture this a burkle no picture
33:57why because there is no such thing and
33:59therefore you had no concept
34:01to picture do not become concerned
34:04that you are not visualizing in
34:05widescreen technicolor
34:07just as you are relaxed about relaxing
34:10be relaxed about visualizing
34:12accept the degree to which you are able
34:14to visualize
34:16the images you are making are creative
34:18and they are
34:19going to get better and better you and
34:22creative imagery
34:23how do you picture yourself in your
34:25meditation should you picture yourself
34:27on your mental screen fixing your hair
34:29in these days of shortage why waste
34:30energy see yourself as you wish to be
34:34these are just practice sessions but the
34:36energy you are putting out
34:38with your alpha visualizing is real
34:40creative energy
34:41is there some aspect of yourself that
34:43you would like to improve
34:44select a scene in which you are
34:46exhibiting that improvement
34:48one manager knew he was being too abrupt
34:51with his people
34:52although he knew this he could not
34:54change that was the way he was
34:56he decided to use in his meditations a
34:58picture of himself
34:59smiling nodding his head and listening
35:02patiently
35:03within a week he was doing exactly that
35:05and was getting warm consideration
35:07back from his formerly indifferent
35:09employees
35:11if there is no particular trait you want
35:14to work on
35:15use a goal that you would like to reach
35:16hold a picture of yourself with a goal
35:18attained
35:20a manager on the night shift wanted to
35:23work
35:23days instead he used a picture of
35:26himself on the job in daylight hours
35:28with the sun
35:28streaming through the windows it took
35:30three weeks and the picture was realized
35:32how as we continue you will understand
35:35more about the
35:36creative energy and how it transcends
35:38space and reaches minds
35:40wherever it must be in order to solve
35:42the problems or reach the goal
35:45if you have no particular trait to work
35:47on and no specific goal to attain at
35:49this time
35:49use a picture of yourself in some
35:51symbolic setting that signifies
35:53success for you seated behind a huge
35:56desk indicating an important position
35:58living in a larger home seated on the
36:01platform at a testimonial dinner for you
36:04conferring with vips be careful of the
36:06picture you select you would better want
36:08it
36:09each alpha visualizing session in your
36:11meditation brings
36:12that picture closer to reality
36:16are you ready to become a visionary
36:19and that is a very good beginning step
36:21to understanding the silva method
36:23specifically in relation to executives
36:25but this can be applied to anyone
36:27as you can see it is somewhat simple
36:30but very complex i challenge you to sit
36:34and count backwards from one hundred to
36:35one if you've never done it
36:38and get all the way to one it's so easy
36:40to start forgetting stuff and get
36:42distracted it took me
36:43a long time longer than 40 days to get
36:46to do that
36:48and if you can do it it's very powerful
36:51get to the point where you can visualize
36:52the numbers add colors to them
36:55get control of your mind through this
36:56process and
36:58if you can do it in a relaxed state the
37:00alpha is important
37:02some people will argue that you need to
37:04go less than alpha but
37:06silva really made a good argument why
37:08alpha is the key
37:09because that state is when you have some
37:12level of control
37:14in those other states you may fall
37:16asleep alpha really keeps you in a
37:19very powerful state that you can use
37:22to visualize and to manifest whatever it
37:25is that you want
37:28if you are in business and you're an
37:30executive
37:31listening to your inner voice is
37:34so powerful it has been in my business
37:37and i can totally see why this method
37:39would be powerful for any executive you
37:42can get so locked into your reports and
37:45your analysis
37:46and when you do that you end up only
37:49seeing the trees and not the forest
37:51so if you can back away and awaken your
37:54intuitive mindset
37:56it will take you to the next level i
37:57guarantee it and i would definitely read
38:00this book for enhanced memory and
38:01concentration
38:02for handling difficult people for
38:04managing time
38:06and working with subordinates all of
38:08these things work
38:09this is a good starting point in
38:11understanding the silva method
38:13by itself and the silva method as it
38:15applies to executives
38:17hopefully that helps and we will
38:19definitely be exploring so much more
38:21of robert stone check out the book the
38:24syllable mind control method for
38:25business managers i will provide a link
38:27in the description
38:29and i'm hoping all of you are having
38:31wonderful days i am imagining
38:33you happy healthy successful
38:37exuberant overcoming whatever problems
38:39that you have
38:40hopefully this can get you to that place
38:43in any case all episodes of the reality
