Reflections, Personal Evaluation by the Founder of the Silva Method

1. The Silva Method: A Scientific Approach to Mind Control

"The Silva Method of Mind Control is an educational system based on scientific research and without any religious affiliation."

Scientific foundation. The Silva Method, developed by Jose Silva over 22 years of research, is a mental training system rooted in scientific principles. It aims to help individuals access their full human potential by teaching them to function consciously at lower brain frequencies, particularly the alpha state of 10 cycles per second.

Practical applications. The method focuses on:

• Enhancing problem-solving abilities
• Improving health and well-being
• Increasing intuition and creativity
• Boosting productivity and success

By combining elements from psychology, neuroscience, and meditation, the Silva Method offers a structured approach to harnessing the power of the mind for personal growth and achievement.

2. Accessing the Alpha State: The Key to Unlocking Human Potential

"Our research indicates that when we do our thinking and analyzing of problems at a lower brain frequency, we start using the right brain hemisphere and extra senses appear to come into action."

Brain frequency optimization. The Silva Method teaches individuals to consciously access the alpha state, characterized by brain waves of 10 cycles per second. This state is associated with increased creativity, intuition, and problem-solving abilities.

Right brain activation. By functioning at the alpha level, practitioners can:

• Tap into the right brain hemisphere's capabilities
• Access psychic senses or enhanced intuition
• Improve learning and memory retention
• Achieve deeper levels of relaxation and stress reduction

The method emphasizes that learning to think and analyze problems at this lower brain frequency can lead to significant improvements in various aspects of life, from personal relationships to professional success.

3. The Power of Visualization and Imagination in Problem-Solving

"Through our desire, belief, and expectancy and through the use of visualization and imagination when functioning at 10 cycles brain frequency we can alter conditions in matter near and far."

Mental imagery techniques. The Silva Method emphasizes the importance of visualization and imagination in manifesting desired outcomes. By combining these mental techniques with the alpha state, practitioners can enhance their problem-solving abilities and influence their reality.

Practical applications:

• Goal setting and achievement
• Creative problem-solving
• Improving physical and mental performance
• Enhancing learning and memory

The method teaches specific visualization exercises to help individuals tap into their inner resources and create positive change in their lives.

4. Developing Psychic Abilities Through Mental Training

"The Silva Method trains and develops clairvoyants to function like Lucius and like Quimby so that people can use their clairvoyance to become healthier, more intuitive and productive, and more successful problem solving agents on this planet."

Enhanced perception. The Silva Method posits that everyone has latent psychic abilities that can be developed through mental training. By accessing the alpha state, individuals can tap into these extrasensory perceptions.

Practical applications of psychic abilities:

• Improved intuition for decision-making
• Enhanced problem-solving capabilities
• Increased empathy and interpersonal understanding
• Better health through early detection of potential issues

The method provides specific exercises and techniques to help individuals develop and refine their psychic senses, integrating them into daily life for practical benefits.

5. The Connection Between Mind Control and Spiritual Growth

"We believe that Christ's discovery coming back into practical use is the return of Christ to earth."

Spiritual interpretation. While the Silva Method is not affiliated with any religion, it draws parallels between its teachings and spiritual concepts, particularly those from Christianity. The method suggests that accessing the inner "kingdom" (the subconscious mind) aligns with Christ's teachings.

Universal principles. The Silva Method emphasizes:

• The importance of inner reflection and meditation
• Connecting with a higher intelligence or universal consciousness
• Using mental abilities for the betterment of humanity
• Achieving personal growth and enlightenment through mind control techniques

By framing mind control techniques in a spiritual context, the method appeals to those seeking both practical and metaphysical benefits.

6. Enhancing Health and Healing Through Mental Techniques

"We believe that when a person is operating at 10 cycles the person is in a positive programming position."

Mind-body connection. The Silva Method emphasizes the powerful influence of the mind on physical health. By accessing the alpha state, individuals can positively program their bodies for improved health and accelerated healing.

Health benefits:

• Reduced stress and improved relaxation
• Enhanced immune system function
• Accelerated healing from injuries and illnesses
• Pain management and relief

The method teaches specific visualization and mental programming techniques for addressing various health concerns, empowering individuals to take an active role in their well-being.

7. Harnessing Intuition for Better Decision-Making

"Intuition appears to function better at 10 cycles brain frequency than it does at 20 cycles brain frequency."

Enhanced intuitive abilities. The Silva Method teaches that accessing the alpha state allows individuals to tap into their intuitive faculties more effectively. This enhanced intuition can lead to improved decision-making in all areas of life.

Practical applications:

• Career and business decisions
• Personal relationships
• Financial choices
• Creative problem-solving

By developing and trusting their intuition, practitioners can make more informed and confident decisions, leading to greater success and satisfaction in life.

8. The Role of Desire, Belief, and Expectancy in Achieving Goals

"We now know how to use repetition to generate and accumulate energy at the subjective dimension for later use."

Mental energy cultivation. The Silva Method emphasizes the importance of desire, belief, and expectancy in manifesting goals. Through repetition and mental training, individuals can strengthen these subjective faculties.

Goal achievement process:

1. Clearly define desires and goals
2. Cultivate strong belief in the possibility of achievement
3. Generate expectancy of success
4. Use visualization and mental programming techniques
5. Take inspired action based on intuitive guidance

By aligning mental energy with desired outcomes, practitioners can increase their likelihood of success in various endeavors.

9. Overcoming Psychosomatic Influence for Improved Well-being

"Our research indicates that only 10 per cent of humanity thinks at 10 cycles and the rest - 90 per cent - thinks on a 20 cycles brain frequency."

Minimizing negative mental influence. The Silva Method teaches that functioning at the alpha level (10 cycles per second) can significantly reduce the negative psychosomatic influence on health. This can lead to improved overall well-being and faster healing.

Benefits of reducing psychosomatic influence:

• Fewer stress-related health issues
• Improved immune system function
• Better management of chronic conditions
• Enhanced overall vitality and energy

By learning to think and analyze problems at the alpha level, individuals can potentially prevent or alleviate up to 90% of their health problems, according to the Silva Method.

10. Aligning with High Intelligence for Greater Success

"We believe that God, the Creator who solves all problems, is the Highest of Intelligences. We believe that persons who solve many problems are closer to God."

Universal connection. The Silva Method teaches that by accessing the alpha state, individuals can align themselves with what it calls "High Intelligence" or the universal problem-solving consciousness. This alignment can lead to greater success and fulfillment in life.

Practical applications:

• Improved problem-solving abilities
• Enhanced creativity and innovation
• Greater sense of purpose and direction
• Increased synchronicity and "coincidences" in life

By learning to tap into this higher intelligence, practitioners can become more effective problem-solvers and contributors to society, fulfilling their potential as human beings.
