Jose Silva always insisted that he was not trying to hurt religion or replace religion. He simply wanted to add some knew discoveries to what was already known.

It is in the nature of human beings to be apprehensive about change. It is part of our survival programming - we never know whether the unknown will be beneficial, or a threat to our survival. Whenever somebody suggests something new, this automatically triggers the survival mechanism. Some people use this energy to explore and discover ways to improve conditions on the planet, while others take a defensive posture.
This was true in Jesus' day, when the religious establishment opposed the brash young man who dared to suggest that there was new knowledge that could be beneficial to humanity.
About 450 years ago, shortly after Columbus sailed to America and proved that the earth is round, a scientist named Galileo proclaimed that he had confirmed what Copernicus had figured out: That the earth and the other planets rotate around the sun. This would explain why planets sometimes appear to go backwards in the sky.
But the religious leaders of the time believed that the earth was at the center of the universe. It had to be so, they reasoned, since man was a divine creation. This had become part of their doctrine, their dogma.
Galileo's assertion upset church leaders so much that they tortured him to force him to recant. Eventually he succumbed to the pain and did as they wished. But this did not change the reality that the earth in fact does revolve around the sun, as do the other planets.
In the mid-20th Century a scientist names Jose Silva ran into similar opposition from leaders in the church, as well as scientists, and even leaders in the business community. Many of us who wanted to explore this new science with him also ran into opposition.
Jose doesn't claim to know it all. He describes his research findings as "semi-conclusions" because more will surely be added later. Perhaps he has discovered half of the truth. New research will find even more of it. Here is how he explained it at a recent Silva International Convention:
"We learned how to activate our brain within the subconscious, by guiding - orienting - the mind to look for a different brain frequency and to learn to use it," he said. "That's what psychorientology means: Orienting the psyche - your mind - to look for and find that specific dimension and then to use it. That's what we call psychorientology. Right brain use.
"Science is open ended all the time," he continued. "It is like telescopes: If you get a better telescope, you discover more planets, more solar systems, more galaxies. If you discover a better microscope, you go further within matter."
Surely someone will "get a better telescope" some day and learn even more in this field. It will not negate what Jose Silva found. When scientists figured out that there was some kind of body that was influencing the orbits of the outermost planets, they predicted that there was one more planet out there. They did not have a powerful enough telescope at the time, but when they got one, then they could actually see the planet Pluto.
The discovery of Pluto did not change what scientists had already discovered. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and the other planets were still there. They still revolve around the sun. Scientists had simply gone farther. They had added to the semi-conclusions.
Jose Silva always insisted that he was not trying to hurt religion or replace religion. He simply wanted to add some knew discoveries to what was already known.
The experiences of millions of people during the last fifty-five years, since he began his research, certainly indicate that his discoveries have tremendous value.
Universal appeal
Whether they are creating a reverent environment, helping church members, or doing good works in the community, religious leaders of all kinds are finding that Jose Silva's methods and techniques can help them do their job better, and can help them understand their own religion better.
This science has universal appeal. Jose Silva's books have been translated in to Hebrew and are sold in Israel; they have also been translated into Chinese, Russian, Greek, Italian, Spanish, and a dozen other languages.
The benefits are available to all, no matter what your religion...or even if you claim to believe in no religion. It matters not what your age is, your background, your race or gender, what your cultural background is, how much...or how little...education you have. Recognized geniuses and overachievers receive as much benefit as those with severe disability, even so-called mental retardation.
We are all creatures of the Creator, or, as we religious people like to say, we are all God's children. We have far more similarities than differences.
Jose Silva says that we have been given some of the abilities and powers that the Creator has: The ability to correct problems and to create solutions on planet earth. The Creator - Jose uses the scientific term higher intelligence - reigns over the whole universe, Jose believes, and human beings reign only over planet earth.
"We are made in the image of God," he used to say, "because we have the power to use our minds to detect information and correct problems. That is our mission, it is why we were sent here."
Whatever you believe, as long as you are striving to take part in constructive and creative activities to make this a better world to live in, you can use the Silva techniques to help you do it.
I believe that all of the power comes from God and can only be used for good. That is my experience. If it comes from God, and is used for good, then we should use it every chance we get.
