CHAPTER 13 - THE BRAIN
A broadcasting and receiving station for thought
Wow! As the years have passed since Hill wrote this
chapter, it is awe-inspiring to me how little we have
advanced our understanding of intangible forces. We
study things with our five physical senses and use
instruments to magnify and measure things related to
those senses.
We attempt to understand intangible forces by
analysis involving our physical senses alone. While
we may be more adept at observing natural forces
such as global climate, tornados, hurricanes, gravity
and geothermal forces - it is folly to believe we can
affect these forces through our PHYSICAL actions.
The most powerful of all intangible forces is thought
itself. We can analyze and measure the physical,
chemical, and electrical aspects of the human brain.
But the product of the brain - Thought - is still
only understood and respected by means of FAITH.
All radiant energy is diminished by distance and
physical barriers, but the FORCE OF THOUGHT
transcends space and obstacles - perhaps even
TIME.
Many experiments have been conducted suggesting
that thoughts may be sent and received by human
brains - regardless of barriers. It has been observed
that EMOTIONS (positive or negative) super-charge
the transmission, and that it works best when the
subjects are wide-awake and alert.
Well,,,we all witnessed and participated in such an
experiment 3 weeks ago on our live Mental Cleanse
call. Three “Senders” on the call concentrated on a
photograph and many “receivers” on the call picked
up impressions of the image - such as colors.
Other “receivers” picked up emotional impressions.
It was amazing! Some saw the red of the car in the
photo, others saw the green of the trees in the back
ground.
I thought my impression was off: I saw someone
wearing a white jacket. I was stunned when I saw the
actual photo later that evening and realized that the
woman standing in the doorway of the car was
wearing a white blouse!
There is no doubt in my mind that my brain can
transmit and receive thoughts to and from the ether.
I need not understand how this energy works, just
accept it with faith.
I realize I must carefully choose which thoughts
dominate my brain, and transmit them outward fueled
only with POSITIVE emotions. This power cannot be
denied and must be respected.

Chapter 13
The brain is a broadcasting and receiving station for
all thought. Through the correct stimuli, we can
increase the signal on both ends and begin to
exchange ideas with other minds. The interesting
phenomenon is that there are no restrictions to who
we exchange with. There is no restriction to space
or time.
There is one line that really stands out from this
chapter for me. That is “we are all controlled by
unseen and in-tangible forces”.
In order to make use of this incredible power of the
brain, we must learn to understand it. We must learn
to control it.
The most useful skills we can exercise are that of
Auto-suggestion, and the use of a Master Mind. Both
these skills, which are taught in great detail through
Mentoring For Free,are the building blocks to a burning
desire for your ultimate goal.Let me give you an
example of how this works.
A good friend of mine, Michael, had a dream to become
a successful network marketer. Although he was success
ful as far as money was concerned there was something
missing.
He discovered that no matter how hard you work, if
your main purpose did not benefit the greatest number
of people, without expecting personal gain, your foun
dation will not be strong enough to stand the course
of time.
This enlightenment brought him to create in himself
a desire to give ‘of himself’ to anyone wanting what
he had, without seeking something in return.
His ultimate goal?
Build the largest, most profitable, highest retention
organization ever built in the history of network
marketing, easily and consistently, through education
and teamwork.
This desire began to burn in Michael to the degree
that key people, some that he had never known before,
were answering his call.
This was the start of Mentoring For Free.
Today, thousands of people are not only learning
the skills of networking, but, they are learning
Who They Themselves Are.
The brain will bring to you whatever you want, so
long as it does not conflict with natural laws.One
thing to remember. What your mind can conceive and
believe, you can achieve. Thank you Michael.

The Brain. My Lesson 3.25.08
It gets overwhelming rather quickly for me when I
begin thinking about Hill’s explanations of the many
intangible forces in this Universe…mostof which we
just take for granted every day and never really
think about them at all. As he says, we humans
depend too much on our physical senses and most of
the time, we limit our knowledge to physical things
that we can see, touch, weigh, and measure.
Just as we’ve talked about in this group many times,
as young children, many times we’re programmed to
do just that…what you see is what you get; get your
head out of the clouds; get your feet back on the
ground; face reality; stop daydreaming; well…you
get the idea.
We are not encouraged to even think about the
intangible forces that affect our lives every day.
at least not much beyond reading about gravity in
science class anyway.
To consider the intangible forces of the world that
Hill speaks about…the rolling waves of the ocean;
gravity and all the unfathomable ways that it is at
work all around us; the forces of a thunderstorm and
of electricity…the list goes on and on.
Probably the intangible force that many of us have
probably thought about more often than some of the
others is the intangible force wrapped up in the soil
of the earth.
What little child hasn’t planted a tiny seed in a
cup of dirt for a special Mother’s Day gift and then,
fascinated by what that seed turned into…presented
it with total delight…and ignorance about what
happened?
And are we not still totally “in the dark” about how
those garden seeds turn into a mountain of produce
throughout the summer as we tend and nurture what
those tiny seeds have become.
But yet, even that most familiar intangible force…
planting a seed in the soil…we have faith, we expect,
and we watch that spot in the dirt…just waiting and
expecting and having faith that any moment we will
see something pop up through the soil and then…
we pretty much take it for granted again.
But, when we actually focus on the miracle of what
these intangible forces produce in our lives…it is
absolutely awesome.
But what about the greatest of all the intangible
forces…the force of our thoughts? How often do we
consider how powerful they are. I think before most
of us came to this Master Mind group, we probably took
our thoughts much more for granted than we do now.
To read what Hill explains about the intricacies of
the makeup of the human brain…I can’t really even
begin to fathom that the number of lines that connect
the brain cells with one another equals the figure
one, followed by fifteen million ciphers.
And keep in mind…that was in 1937. And they even
knew then that all of those nerve cells in our
brains are arranged in definite patterns. Their
arrangement is NOT haphazard, but orderly.
Hill says that it is inconceivable that such a net
work of intricate machinery should be in existence
for the sole purpose of carrying on the physical
functions incidental to growth and maintenance
of the physical body.
He asks us, “Is it not likely that the same system
which gives billions of brain cells the media for
communication one with another provides also the
means of communication with other intangible forces
I have to admit that question made me feel similarly
to when my husband will point out a beautiful sunset
or a fabulous double rainbow in the sky, or an
awesome bank of clouds during a storm…and when I
realize that I hadn’t even noticed what was right in
front of my face, it’s also the moment that I realize
that so very much passes us by without our even
noticing, understanding, or even making use of what
is right before us all the time.
I usually always respond in those moments by saying
to myself…”I need to look UP more often and see
what I’m missing.” And in response to Hill’s
question…of course, it is evident to us now that
our brain’s are capable of far more than we use
them for in our everyday lives.
With regard to the intangible force of thought, and
the knowledge that through autosuggestion and the
power of the Master Mind principle that we can indeed
“work with” this intangible force…or let it work
against us.
Just the realization that we can affect this intangible
force of thought at all is amazing. I think it’s just
one of those little secrets that God planted for us to
find and realize, once again like the little child full
of awe watching the tiny seed grow into a beautiful
flower for Mommy…that no matter our age when we
discover it, the power of our thoughts is not a mistake,
but an amazing opportunity to make life as wonderful as
we want it to be…and let the rest go on by.
Thank you!!
Patti Blevins
