12
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: Mitch Horowitz back on Coast to Coast, one of our favorites.

13
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,200
Speaker 1: Hello their Mitch. Hey, George's great to hear you. Looking

14
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 1: forward to this and look at the special three hours

15
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: you ready for this, delighted to be here. We'll take

16
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 1: up in ready to go. We'll take a lot of

17
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: calls and everything else. Give us an update, Mitch on

18
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 1: what you've been doing. Well. Right now, I'm working on

19
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: a book on how to attract good luck. This is

20
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: some ah it watch out for. It's become a favorite

21
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: topic of mine. I've become persuaded that there really are

22
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: concrete ways to cultivate good luck. It's not all random.

23
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: And so the book is going to be called The

24
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,039
Speaker 1: Mastery of good Luck, and that's going to be an

25
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: audio program and book coming out in the next few moment.

26
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: Do you know Joseph Gallenberger Funny Chance? Is this the

27
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: author of Liquid Luck? Yes? Yes, I just got his book.

28
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to reading it. I picked it up

29
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: on your recommendation. Actually, I've heard a lot of good

30
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: things about it. He's been on the show several times,

31
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: and in what he's done for a lot of people

32
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: who might not know who he is. He's a professor

33
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: and he experiments with luck, and he believes that people

34
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: can create their own luck. And so he has tested

35
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: people by going to Las Vegas and he brings two

36
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: groups of students upbeat, very bubbly, very exciting, happy people,

37
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: and then another group that's down in the dumps. Negative.

38
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: We're not going to win that kind of thing. He

39
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: tests them in almost every time, I might even say

40
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: every time the upbeat group, the happy group, always seems

41
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: to win. The negative group always seems to lose. Isn't

42
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: that amazing. It's absolutely remarkable, and it relates to something

43
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,239
Speaker 1: that was written by the great ESP researcher jb Ryan,

44
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,679
Speaker 1: who is a personal hero of mine and I write

45
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: about this in The Miracle Club. Jb made the observation

46
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: that when he was doing ESP tests at his clinical

47
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 1: laboratories at Duke University, he found that the greatest correlate

48
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: to demonstrating ESP was a mood of hopeful expectancy in

49
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 1: the subject. That if the subject was experiencing enthusiasm, encouragement, optimism,

50
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: hopeful expectancy, results would spike, and that if the subjects

51
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: started to experience boredom or fatigue, or was fidgety, or

52
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: just really had something else that was drawing their attention

53
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: away from the lab, results would inevitably go down. But

54
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 1: if they took a break, had a cup of calfee,

55
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 1: we're encouraged, they would spike up again. Jb who did

56
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:14,119
Speaker 1: probably the most sophisticated clinical ESP tests that have been

57
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: conducted on a college campus maybe in the past eighty years,

58
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: he made the observation that a positive mood seemed to

59
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: correlate with a spike in ESP results on card tests,

60
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: so it was the same thing that the man we

61
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: were just talking about discovered, and there's a great secret

62
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: of human nature in there. Positive expectancy does correlate with

63
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: an expansion of the mind's powers. What is it doing.

64
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: Is it tapping into something that's out there, like as

65
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 1: I've always called it, the wireless Internet, where we're happy,

66
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: upbeat people somehow are able to connect better. It seems

67
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: to me, George that and this is something I write

68
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: about in the book. I think what's going on is

69
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,119
Speaker 1: that we're not exactly manifesting outcomes so much as we're

70
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: selecting them. My theory is that linearity is an illusion.

71
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: It's a necessary illusion because we're five sensory beings and

72
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,119
Speaker 1: we need to organize our lives in a certain way.

73
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: But in fact, there's infinite possibility. There's superposition of all

74
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: outcomes going on around us all at once. And when

75
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: we are in a dynamic, supple mood, when our minds

76
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: are flexible, when we're filled with a sense of possibility,

77
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:30,239
Speaker 1: we are able, in effect, in effect, to select among

78
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: these infinite outcomes, or to select among things that exist

79
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: in potentiality. And I think that we can exit the

80
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 1: kind of illusion of linearity when we're in this positive, hopeful,

81
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: dynamic state and it becomes more possible to us to

82
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 1: actually select circumstances. I have a friend who's no longer

83
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: with us. We always used to joke with him that

84
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 1: we called him the Cooler, and he passed away a

85
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: couple months ago, bitch, while I was in Saint Louis

86
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: for Christmas and holidays. I'm glad I was there for that,

87
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 1: but he was all He had a strange personality. He

88
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: had the ability of cooling things, not necessarily by doing

89
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: it on purpose, but he would just do it, and

90
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: I mean it would be it would be strange. He

91
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: would be with people who would normally be upbeat or lucky,

92
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: or things would be going well for them, and things

93
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: would change for these people quickly. And then when our

94
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: friend left, things would get back to normal again for people.

95
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: But I remember a time. I don't know why we

96
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,679
Speaker 1: use Vegas as an example, but it's easier to track

97
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:44,840
Speaker 1: that way. But years ago, years ago, we took him

98
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: to Las Vegas a group of us, and we stayed

99
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: at the at the River Era at the time, and

100
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: he met my casino host, and you know, he went

101
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: up to where gave her a hug. They got along well,

102
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: but you know, he was kind of down in negative.

103
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: Two weeks later, she dies. She was in her forty

104
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: years old. She died. And then a month later they

105
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: announced that the riviera was going to be demolished. But

106
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: that's just an example of the many things that happened

107
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: to this guy, yeah, wherever he was. I mean, it

108
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 1: was bizarre. Why would someone like that, who was a

109
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: nice person, but why would these negative things happen to

110
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: him all the time? You know, it's very interesting. We

111
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: I really do believe, George, that there is a kind

112
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 1: of spontaneous esp or telepathy going on all the time

113
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: in day to day life, and that we we attract

114
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 1: events and incidents to ourselves, both good and bad. And

115
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: I was just speaking with a friend about this earlier tonight,

116
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 1: and this is a challenge that I want to put

117
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: out to the Coast Family, the Coast listeners. I've made

118
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,119
Speaker 1: this observation in my own life and in the lives

119
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: of many other people, and I challenge people to test

120
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 1: it themselves. When you feel bullied, or when you feel

121
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: picked on, or when you feel like people are treating

122
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: you like a doormat, don't do anything to change your

123
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: outer behavior. Just change as best as you possibly can.

124
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: You're inner talking, your inner sense of self to the

125
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: greatest degree you're able, and watch what happens in your

126
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: exterior life. Again, don't do anything in your exterior life.

127
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: Just change your inner talking. Demonstrate to yourself within that

128
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: you are an assertive person, that you are a person

129
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 1: who's mature, who's deserving and commanding of respect. Watch what happens.

130
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: Your life could change in a revolutionary way, because I

131
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: think that when people are aggressive or hostile, they are

132
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 1: picking up signals, mental signals, telepathic signals. Put it however

133
00:07:55,560 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: you like from people who are identifying themselves elves, perhaps subconsciously,

134
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: as easy victims, and it can be reversed. This is

135
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: the esp of day to day life. Make sure, as

136
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: you yourself had an uncanny experience with minded money, what

137
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: happened to you? Oh, it was just remarkable. George, I

138
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: was reading the book Think and Grow Rich, and one

139
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: of the things in that book, one of the techniques,

140
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: one of the pieces of advice, is that you must

141
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 1: write down a certain sum of money that you want

142
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 1: to earn. It should be a bold sum, but also

143
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: a reasonable sum, write down the date by which you

144
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 1: want to earn it, and write down the service that

145
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 1: you're going to provide in exchange for it. And for

146
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: a long time I resisted that step. Somehow it chafed

147
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: against my spiritual values, it chafed against my ethical values.

148
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 1: I didn't feel comfortable writing down a sum of money

149
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,559
Speaker 1: in a date. But I dedicated myself to the book

150
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: one day and decided I was going to follow all

151
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: of its instructions and burn my bridges behind me. So

152
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 1: I did write down a certain sum of money, a

153
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: bold sum, and a date which happened to be my birthday,

154
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: which November twenty third. I had forgotten all about it.

155
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: I wrote it on a yellow sticky note inside the book.

156
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: Months and months later I returned to the book. I

157
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: was astonished to discover I had earned that very sum

158
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 1: of money, which was a considerable sum, by that very date,

159
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 1: which was wow, my birthday. Subconsciously, this had stayed with me,

160
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,839
Speaker 1: and this exercise proved enormously fruitful, and I really want

161
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: to recommend it to people. We have a numerologist, you

162
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: must know, Glennis McCants, of course, comes on our program often,

163
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: and she said on the program years ago. She said,

164
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 1: if you put the number eight in your purse or

165
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: wallet or in your pocket, it will attract money for you.

166
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: And she said, you got to be careful, you know,

167
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: don't be greedy about it, but you know, just do

168
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: it and let it happen, you know, let the intention happen.

169
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: And so a fellow who was working at a restaurant

170
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 1: here in the Los Angeles area, who listens to the

171
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 1: show quite often. He's passed on too. He was also

172
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: an actor. His name was George. He did that, and

173
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: he went to the casino. And again we seem to

174
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: judge ourselves by going to casinos, but it's easier to

175
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: gauge I guess though. But he had the eight in

176
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 1: his pocket and he won three thousand dollars playing slot machines.

177
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: He never wins, he said, He said, it was absolutely

178
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: and Kenny and I said, well, he was telling me

179
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 1: this story when I was out at the restaurant and

180
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: he said, and I can't wait to go back tomorrow.

181
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: And I said, George, Glennis said, you gotta be careful.

182
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: You can't be greedy. He said, no, no, it works.

183
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 1: He lost it all the next he lost then then

184
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: then I got an email from another guy who said

185
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,559
Speaker 1: he put the eight in his pocket. He was flat broke,

186
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 1: put the eight in his pocket. Two days later he

187
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: gets a letter that he's getting two hundred thousand dollars

188
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 1: his father dial His dad died, so they're so it

189
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: comes with consequences at the same time match. Well, you know,

190
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: it's very interesting. There's so much to that. First of all,

191
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: I'm going to do that experiment because I love personal

192
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: experiment exactly, and you know, there's an interesting observation to

193
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: be made there. We're often told that if we want

194
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 1: to achieve a goal, we should be persistent. And you know,

195
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: often we hear that and we think, well, it's just

196
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,319
Speaker 1: a good work ethic. But there's something else going on,

197
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: and this is a very important ingredient in cultivating good luck.

198
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: Every statistician and every gambler can tell you that runs

199
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: of luck change. It's a natural law. And one of

200
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 1: the reasons why persistence brings good luck is that a

201
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 1: fallow period will inevitably reverse and will reverse again, as

202
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: happened to your friend at the casino. So when people

203
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 1: say be persistent, keep your chin up, keep trying, that's

204
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: not just a good eat your vegetables kind of ethic.

205
00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 1: There's actual statistical lawfulness behind that persistence brings about or

206
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 1: sets the stage for a natural reversal of a fallow period,

207
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: and that reversal will turn back on itself again. So

208
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes these old expressions that we hear have

209
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: their basis in natural law, and this is part of

210
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 1: how we can actually cultivate good luck. Interesting, I want

211
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: to get this out too much. That next week you're

212
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,079
Speaker 1: going to be at the Manly P. Hall's School in

213
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: Griffith Park here in Los Angeles. Yeah, giving a speech.

214
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: Tell me what you're going to be talking about. Oh gosh,

215
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: I'm going to be hosting five events there. I'll be

216
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 1: there from Wednesday. I'll be there from Thursday through Saturday.

217
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 1: I'm going to be talking about ancient Egyptian philosophy. I'm

218
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: going to be talking about forgotten occult heroes. I'm going

219
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: to be doing tarot readings for people. And on Saturday

220
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: it's going to be a very special event. I'm going

221
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: to be hosting a two hour Miracle Club workshop where

222
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 1: we really get into the nitty gritty of some of

223
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: the ideas that you and I are discussing, and if

224
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,719
Speaker 1: people want to find the dates or information, they could

225
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 1: just go to my feed a Twitter. It's at Mitch

226
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: Harrowit's and posted right at the top is all the

227
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 1: information and the links you need. I'm really excited. I

228
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: love Los Angeles, I love Manly p Hall, and you

229
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 1: know I'm getting to spend about four days there next

230
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: week doing lots of events. I'll be in Denver doing

231
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,079
Speaker 1: might be onbelief TV shows, but I would have loved

232
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: to have come to see you. That would have been

233
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: at the time. I'll be out in La plenty. I've

234
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: now got a gig as a lecturer at Manly Hall School,

235
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: so I'm out several times a year. Super. Super, Let's

236
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 1: talk a little bit about intention and the ability of

237
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:40,439
Speaker 1: people to manipulate things. Not just lucky things, but they

238
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: can manipulate things with their intention. How did they do that?

239
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: You know? I think, George, that everything that we hold

240
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 1: as an emotionalized, vividly pictured intention in our minds, for

241
00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 1: good or bad, eventually gets visited upon us in waves.

242
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: And the key word there is eventually. There can be

243
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: a real long interval of time or gestation period, sometimes

244
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,679
Speaker 1: even years, but if you really look back and scrutinize

245
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 1: your life. You find that things that you've been holding

246
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: in your mind subconsciously almost serve as the internal programming

247
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: or cybernetic system of a heat seeking missile, and you

248
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: move toward it. You move toward it. Most of us

249
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: feel that dreams don't come true. The fact is, dreams

250
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 1: do come true, but we don't often scrutinize ourselves carefully

251
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: enough to unravel what we've really been wanting, what we've

252
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: really been wishing for, what we've really been hoping for.

253
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: We are strangers to ourselves. We think we know what

254
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 1: we're walking around thinking about, or what we really desire,

255
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: but we rarely give mature scrutiny to what our real

256
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: desires are versus the things that we tell ourselves. This

257
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: is why I always talk about the critical importance of

258
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: having one definite, absolute, passionate aim in life. Nothing focuses

259
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: your psychical energies more completely than having one absolute aim.

260
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: It's another law of nature. Concentration brings force, and if

261
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 1: you can sit down in a really mature, sustained way,

262
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: very privately, this is your own private experiment without any embarrassment,

263
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: and ask yourself, what do I want in life more

264
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 1: than anything. Don't rely upon what you've told yourself of

265
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 1: the past. Ask yourself right now and need it. That

266
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: is an extraordinary mental exercise in concentrating your abilities and

267
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 1: in bringing about your intention. But it has to be

268
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: very focused and very concentrated. Are you convinced that this

269
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: ability to do this is outside of the mind or

270
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: does the mind have something to do with it. The

271
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: mind has extra physical capacities. We know that as an

272
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: absolute fact. In fact, you know the thesis of materialism,

273
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: which would hold that we are just flesh and bone robots.

274
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: It simply doesn't cover the bases of life anymore. In

275
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: the twenty first century, we have absolute evidence across all

276
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 1: kinds of fields, including neuroplasticity, including psychical research, including quantum theory,

277
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: that the mind and awareness wields extra physical abilities, that

278
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: it goes beyond the five senses. The field of neuroplasticity

279
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: demonstrates that your thoughts change the gray matter in your brain.

280
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 1: This is according to simple brain scans, and no one

281
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: disputes the science. What gets disputed is the implications of it.

282
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: Because the implications are fantastic, which is that mind over

283
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: matter is a reality and that's just one field and

284
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: one area where it's been demonstrated that thoughts have extra

285
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: physical capacity. So we know this as a fact. The

286
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: question is how do we use it? How do we

287
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 1: apply it in our intimate lives, in our day to

288
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 1: day lives, in finance, in relationships, in home life. And

289
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,159
Speaker 1: this is where these wonderful experiments come in. Was a

290
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 1: very deep mystery about how all this works, why it works.

291
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,880
Speaker 1: I come up with a theory in the Miracle Club,

292
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: which I was discussing earlier, of this idea that the

293
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,360
Speaker 1: mind can help us exit the illusion of linearity, can

294
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 1: select events. But the most important thing is that we

295
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: find workable methods and we provide testimony so that other

296
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 1: people can use these methods and ideas. There's no question

297
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 1: that our generation is on the precipice of incredible discoveries

298
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 1: in the human mind. I think that we are going

299
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 1: to come to a revolutionized view of what it means

300
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: to be human, inasmuch as the theory of evolution revolutionized

301
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,880
Speaker 1: the idea of human life in the Victorian age. Our

302
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 1: minds have extra physical capacities, and the message that people

303
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 1: should take from that is you're never without options, You're

304
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:13,160
Speaker 1: never without tools. Even when things are their most difficult,

305
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,479
Speaker 1: your mind does wield influence on the world around you.
