Q:
How long does it take to develop the ability to
read at 25,000 words per minute with perfect recall?
A: You develop at the rate you
chose. How soon your abilities become fully functional
is dependant upon many factors. The most important
factor is your openness to these concepts and willingness
to practice. For a few, the skill of reading at
a minimum of 25,000 words-per-minute (60 pages
a minute) with perfect recall will manifest
in weeks. In most it takes months. In some cases
it takes years. All of us have perfect memories.
Few of us have perfect recall. The real trick is
dealing with the layers of separation you have built
as walls between the forgetful person you appear
to be now and the perfect fountain of memory you
were naturally as a child. Along the way you have
learned to read and write thus giving you another
medium for perfect recall. Practice is the key -
what you concentrate on, you become.
Q:
Can everyone do this or are some just not capable?
A:
If you can see, read, and write, then you already
have the tools necessary to awaken this skill. You
do not have to be able to see perfectly, nor read
and write perfectly. Just well enough to be able
to comprehend and do the exercises presented in
the The Mastery of Learning seminar,
book, and Online course.
Q:
How can I work with my dreams as you recommend when
I never remember them?
A:
Those who don't remember their dreams have chosen
to not remember and probably live a lifestyle that
supports that decision. Intentionality and a few
simple steps allow you to begin remembering them.
I also used to never remember my dreams. Once I
decided that I wanted to and began recording what
little I began to remember, in only a few months
I was remembering whole dreams every night and eventually
eight or nine dreams each night.
Q:
If everyone has this ability as you say, why don't
I know anyone who can do this?
A: It is well
documented by Dr. Joseph Chilton Pearce
and others that in places like Greece, Africa,
South America, and Asia, fire-walking
is a common non-ordinary phenomena. The children
learn from watching their elders and eventually
join them in walking across a pit of blazing coals
so hot that it melts aluminum on contact. In Ceylon
the pit is typically 20 feet long, six feet wide,
and many feet deep with hot coals at temperatures
measured at 1400 degrees Fahrenheit. Annually, a
few die trying this. The vast majority raised in
the cultures that practice fire-walking cross the
blazing hot pit barefoot and unscathed; their clothes
un-singed even, because they know they can do it.
You probably don't know anyone who does fire-walking,
yet fire walking is common around the world. What
I am teaching takes far less commitment and failure
is not fatal. You can do it because as a child you
once did it. I am not teaching you a skill so much
as helping you remember what you once did naturally.
The skill I teach merely awakens your own latent
ability.
Q:
If this is so great, why don't they teach it in
school?
A: A few schools
teach some of the abilities I discuss and honor
a child's potential to a far greater degree than
most public education demonstrates. Examples are
Montessori and Waldorf Schools,
Sylvan Learning Centers, and in particular,
Dr. Lozenov's Suggestophobia Institute
and the seminars and books developed by Dr.
Richard Welch and Paul Scheele. Once
the general public begins to understand and acknowledge
the far greater potential all of us have and the
tools currently available from many sources, then
this will enable most school systems to start incorporating
techniques like those presented in The
Mastery of Learning in
forms they find culturally acceptable.
Q:
Can you do what your book teaches?
A: I am still
learning. The Mastery of Learning covers
many techniques such as remembering your dreams,
being able to see auras, wide-eye viewing, Brain
Gym and Tibetan exercises, positive
affirmations, and reading at a minimum of 25,000
words-per-minute. I practice most of these
skills every day. I am pretty good at remembering
my dreams, accessing my subconscious, and integrating
my right and left-brain for holistic thought. All
were essential for writing The Mastery of Learning.
I practice reading at 25,000 words-per-minute
every day. I have reached the 100th time
goal for my ReLAX and ReTAIN rituals.
My ReCALL ritual needs more work as my
Superscanned knowledge currently comes overnight
after sleeping on it and is in the form of intuitive
hunches. Perfect ReCALL in only minutes,
which is what Douglas Buchanan and others
demonstrate that we all are capable of, is my goal.
Q:
(Typical question at Magical Child Seminar): Okay,
what do we adults do now about our child and our
own split selves?
A: (Answer from Dr. Joseph
Chilton Pearce): Bonding is the issue, regardless
of age…. Anything that blocks bonding should
be avoided. Hospitals for delivery, bottles for
feeding, cribs for sleeping, playpens and strollers
for isolation, day-care centers for not caring,
nursery schools for not nurturing, preschools –
all create abandonment and weaken the bond. Surely,
a parent would do everything possible to protect
the child from premature literacy and be warned
about television. To nurture a magical child is
a full-time responsibility.
