meditate, that her arm would begin to move, and she couldn't seem to sit still. And she began to tell her friends about this. And her friends said, you know, you, you might try writing something while you're meditating. And see what happens. Well, she did, she took a pad and put next to her and held the pencil and just kind of waited. And lo and behold, if she didn't start writing, and there seemed to be some information that came out, and it was very interesting to her, where's this information coming from? This is very strange. Well, several months went by, with this country discontinued and she seemed to, you know, occasionally three or four times a month would sit down with pen in hand and access this information, and it seemed to become more natural thing in her life. Still going to hospital every day checking, doing rounds, very straight laced, doctor. And then she began to develop a lump feeling in her throat, a pressure of pain. I remember being scared as a kid, when my parents would yell at me or something, I thought I was gonna get in trouble. And it felt like my heart came up into my throat, this big lump in my throat kind of a thing. And I imagined in my head, that's what she was talking about. But she felt this pressure in her throat. And so what did she do being in the medical profession went in through and all through all of the iron Nose and Throat people went to this doctor and that doctor and into the oncologist, and then finally went and saw the social worker in the hospital. And there's a psychiatrist, and they all said, there's nothing wrong with your throat. And so being frustrated, she said, Okay, there's nothing wrong with my throat. But she still had this constant feeling of pressure. She became very, very frustrated, and this pain in her throat this month, in that she was driving home from the hospital one day, she was just sitting there driving her car and finally screamed out God, I am tired of this, whatever has to happen. If I have to scream, whatever it is, just please let it out. And this voice came forth from her. And she was startled. And she pulled off the road. And this voice began to talk to her and provide her information, just like when she began to write. Well, what happened, she wound up at the Monroe Institute, right? She came to see us. And she went through a couple of programs here. Many times we give a tour, a lab tour to the Gateway voyage people and Dave is always very gracious and say, Oh, yes, come on over and do this and do this. And if you'd like to lay down in the booth and try it out, that would be just fine. And he told her to lay down in the booth. And she started just like that with his voice coming up. And so we had to kind of say, this is the lab tour. This isn't part of our plan here. This kind of happened. And she eventually went back to being her doctor self in Richmond, and called me. This all happened a couple of years ago and called me back and said, Gee, it's been a long time since I've been out there. I said, Yes. Would you like to come out again? And and would you like to go in the booth again? And I would like to re Matthew, do you think this voice would speak through you again? She says, Well, it comes back occasionally. I don't really ask for it or anything, but I think it might. So I think it was two or three minutes ago, she came back and I was very privileged to be able to brain mapper in this process happened. Now, what's interesting is this same ruler that we've been talking about, about laying this measurement device on top of the experimental behaviors, saying is there increased delta is there synchrony is their decreased alpha and everything. I decided to take her brainwave data and just take that same measuring device, that same ruler, and lay it on top of her behaviors, and see what happened. Now, this is her baseline data here. This is what happens during her channeling. As you can see, she has decreased Alpha back here and increased in gamma out in these quadrants here. And this is what her chart looks like. Moving from baseline where nothing was going on here into focus 10 Focus 12 and then enter two channeling episodes here, in what do we have here, but an increase in the Delta happening? A decrease in the Alpha was resting state Alpha suppressing the resting state alpha, and this tremendous increase in synchrony happening. So here's this same ruler and it was really a lot of fun for me to she's not in the experiment. She's out of the experiment, not the same series of tones. But I said let's apply the same measuring device ICE's to see what's happening in her behavior here. And what we see is the same kind of a thing happening here with her. So that was a whole lot of fun for me. And she's gone back to being a doctor in the hospital. And we've invited her to come to a couple of programs. And she's kind of wanting to be interested with this, but she's doing her life again. And in the hospital, and I imagine his voice comes out and talks to her whenever it's necessary. But very interesting, when you get someone who isn't pursuing these things in their life, and these happens spontaneously, to them. I've been involved in the metaphysical lifestyle for 45 years now. And it wasn't until I did about 25, Booth sessions with Tina over there, the voice came out of me as well. But I was looking for interesting experiences and hear this straight race Doctor lady wasn't looking for it at all, but it was time to happen for her. 1:01:01 There seem to be two different personalities. One was a very caring type personality that told her that everything was all right in life, and she was doing just fine. And it was very wonderful to be sharing this life with her and it was nice. And then there was this other person later that came out that was very directive and said, you know, you really need to get your act together. Why didn't you take your board exams earlier, I told you, you're gonna get a license board exams. So it depended upon which kind of a thing came out of her. And again, she was very innocent about the whole thing and not trying to make this happen at all. It might be very interesting, if you want to talk to her later, you know, we can give you her name and phone number and call her up. She's very nice, very interesting lady. But this is just like on the edge of life. And every couple of years, she gets a little more interested in that wants to investigate a little more. And then she kind of put it away again, say, Well, maybe we'll just let sit on that for a little bit. Then it comes back and becomes of interest to her again. 1:02:04 What kind of information came out during the automatic learning phase? 1:02:08 It was it was the gentler personality came out during the automatic phase, I can't quite remember the name of the voice that came out it had a name, I have a report next door, which you're more than welcome to read. And it has the name in there, this voice identified itself. I have this written up in her own words or biographic sketches, his own words, and then our brain mapping report a few back to review it while you're here. Now in summary, I've kind of show you a little bit about what the world knows about altered states of consciousness and how brainwaves are paralleled with them. And then I showed you a little bit about how, when you introduce Hemi sync sounds, it changes the brain in the same way that brainwaves are changed during these altered state experiences. So this gives us a very unique tool, all we have to do is refine in tune the different frequencies to create the different types of audio guidance programs that we need for development. Now, that's where you come in. As professionals, of course, you all have a little bit different requirements and how to deal with your clientele a little bit different needs. So we need to dialogue back and forth. And we need to talk about things that we can do to best cover to best address the needs of you and your clientele out there. There is objective evidence that we are changing states of consciousness here is a picture of my wife who's at home. She can't come to the lecture, but I always bring her along anyways. And I hope I've given you kind of a different perspective of the Monroe Institute and the kinds of things we do around here. We have a few minutes for any questions that I might be able to address. Let me turn on the lights here. So those who slept through can wake up 1:04:07 I'm sorry, I thought I was turning off the slide machine today. No, I turn those off. Okay. There's a slide machine. There's two words in it. One says slide and one says side and without my glasses. I never know which button I'm pushing. Hi. 1:04:26 I'm curious about whether one can attain the same states after many uses of the let's say your standard tapes to get to levels tend to I would say one just one always need the tapes to help promote those states in terms of brainwave mapping. 1:04:41 Sure, that's a real good question. We look at the tapes, we call them training wheels. We'll look at the tapes as showing you the array to these places. But the tapes can be very confining just like training wheels on a bike you can't lean into the turn And you can't birdie out and you can't be adventuring across country, you have to ride on the sidewalk. So we look at tapes only showing you the way in, in our four programs that we do here the later days and the programs are about weaning you off of tapes. And we have this famous thing called the non tape exercise, where you go out to your check unit and you put your earphones on and we don't give you a tape to listen to. So that there's this idea that I am not dependent. My exercise isn't on the tape, it's in me, I've just learned with the tape how to get to this place, 1:05:33 and are people successful? Yes. 1:05:47 Remember that there's a psychological component here, not just the physiological changes. This is a very gentle process. And I'll go ahead repeat the story that I say to the Gateway voice, you might find it useful in dealing with your clients. Bob Monroe kind of explained it to the best of all, when he said, Imagine ballroom dancing, imagine that you've gone to a dinner club. And you know that you're going to a place where there's going to be dancing. And you've ordered your dinner and you're sitting there and and suddenly, the orchestra starts playing a nice waltz. And you notice that several people around you get up and they start dancing and you put on your scientific cap and you say Aha, I see a stimulus response connection. They play the music, the people get up and dance, then you think that well wait a minute, I'm not dancing. I'm just sitting here tapping my foot and those people aren't dancing. What's going on here? Well, there is an environment that has been staged for you that you may if you'd like to get up and dance, but you don't have to. You can be attracted to it and still say and sit and observe what's going on observe others, but not really get involved and be up there. Hemi sync is the same way the auditory guidance programs are put together to develop an atmosphere or a environment in which you are invited to participate. You may in fact get up and dance when you go up to your checking and you put on your earphones and you're ready to go. You can decide to just lay there and listen to the sounds and then go downstairs and listen to the other people talk about what happened to them. Or you can decide to get up and dance and be part of what's going on. If you make that decision to get up and dance. What happens if the music is playing a waltz you're gonna dance the walls. If it's playing a chacha, you're gonna dance the Cha Cha if it's a foxtrot Ching and do foxtrot. What that means is all you have to do is to make the rules to participate be willing to let it happen and the patterns that are imprinted on the tapes are the ones that you're going to be involved with.
