The Revealer

By José Silva

This book is about the achievements of Jose Silva whose investigative mind became attracted to the study of the evolution of humanity.
Silva reviewed human history and found many ups and downs. He noted that at a time when humanity was progressing very well, a war would break out, setting humanity back.
In technology, humanity has been progressing steadily, but even while doing so, it was losing humaneness, Silva says. He means that human intelligence was gaining in the objective, physical, dimension, but at the same time, was losing in the subjective, spiritual, dimension.
The mind and soul reside in a subjective, spiritual, dimension, Silva says, while the brain and body reside in the objective, physical, dimension.
Recent research reveals that:
*The human left brain hemisphere is associated with the physical dimension, and is used for taking action.
*The human right brain hemisphere is associated with the spiritual dimension, and is intended to be used for thinking, for analyzing information, and for making decisions.
But most human beings, approximately 90 percent, use the left brain hemisphere for both thinking and acting.
His research revealed that the ten percent who use the right brain hemisphere for thinking and the left brain hemisphere for acting are healthier, luckier, and more successful than those who use only the left brain hemisphere for both thinking and acting.
It took Silva 22 years of scientific research to find a way to teach people to use the information stored in the subconscious.
This actually converted the subconscious into an "inner conscious" level, where we now have access to information previously unavailable to us.
In this book, you can see for yourself the similarities of the benefits derived from using the Systems that Jose Silva developed, compared to the Biblical account of the benefits of using the Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven.
"What I did," Silva explains, "was to take the writings of each author in the Bible and put those writing to a scientific test, then evaluate the results.
"So what I have done, right or wrong, is to take information, a little bit at a time, and test it by trying to use it to solve existing problems with it."
If the information could not be used to correct problems, then it was useless information and had no value as far as he was concerned.
He concludes, "The truthful truth is only that which, when applied, solves problems. This applies to all information, regardless of where it comes from and regardless of how new or old it is."
This book goes into detail about Silva's research and his conclusions.
It also includes a scientific way to pray, to communicate regularly and reliably with higher intelligence to help you solve problems and improve living conditions on planet earth.

This book is about the achievements of a man named Jose Silva whose investigative mind became attracted to the study of the evolution of humanity.

Silva reviewed human history and found what he calls many ups and downs. He noted that at a time when humanity was progressing very well, a war would break out, setting humanity back some.

In technology, humanity has been progressing steadily, but even while doing so, it was losing humaneness, Silva says. He means that human intelligence was gaining in the objective, physical, dimension, but at the same time, was losing in the subjective, spiritual, dimension.

The mind and soul reside in a subjective, spiritual, dimension, Silva says, while the brain and body reside in the objective, physical, dimension.

What was only discovered recently is that different parts of the brain specialize in communicating in one of these two dimensions:

•The human left brain hemisphere is associated with the physical dimension, and is the part of the brain we use for taking action.

•The human right brain hemisphere is associated with the spiritual dimension, and is the part of the brain that is intended to be used for thinking, for analyzing information, and for making decisions.

But Silva found a problem: Most human beings, approximately 90 percent, use the left brain hemisphere for both thinking and acting. His research revealed that the ten percent who use the right brain hemisphere for thinking and the left brain hemisphere for acting are healthier, luckier, and more successful than the 90 percent who use only the left brain hemisphere for both thinking and acting.

Research has found that each brain hemisphere has a set of senses:

•The left brain hemisphere has a set of objective senses, for detecting information in the physical dimension.

•The right brain hemisphere has a set of subjective senses, for detecting information in the spiritual dimension.

Information detected with the objective senses is impressed on the left brain hemisphere, and a duplicate of this information is impressed on the right brain hemisphere.

Information detected with the subjective senses is impressed on the right brain hemisphere, but no duplicate is impressed on the left hemisphere for 90 percent of people. Only those people who are able to do their thinking with the right brain hemisphere have a duplicate of this information transferred to their left hemisphere.

This means that two sets of senses, the objective and the subjective senses, store information in the right hemisphere, but only one set of senses store information in the left.

Most humans have no access to the information stored in the right brain hemisphere. The information stored in the right brain hemisphere is said to be stored in the subconscious, meaning, below the threshold of consciousness.

Silva discovered that about ten percent of humanity had found a way to use the information in the subconscious. These ten percenters experience better health, greater success, and more happiness.

It took Silva 22 years of research to find a way to teach people to use the information stored in the subconscious. By doing so, he has actually converted the subconscious into an inner conscious level, where we now have access to information previously unavailable to us.

During his research, Silva developed the habit of comparing every new thought or idea that would come to him with information in the Bible. To his surprise, he found a great similarity between the ideas and information that were coming to him, and the writings about Christ in the Bible.

He was especially impressed with the writings in Matthew about Jesus’ discovery of the Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven. The more he compared his research findings with the Bible’s information about the Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven and the benefits derived therefrom, the more certain he became that he was on the right track.

When you read this book, you can see for yourself the similarities of the work and the similarities of the benefits derived from using the Silva Method compared to the Biblical account of the benefits of using the Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven.

Silva believes that it was Jesus who originally discovered a method to produce such benefits. For some reason, Silva says, Jesus’ Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven were not propagated. This, he believes, is why humanity has evolved in the wrong direction. We have not evolved as fully developed human beings who use both the left and the right brain hemispheres as we are supposed to. This is why we do not have access to the information on the right brain hemisphere, he says.

As a result of our failure to become fully developed human beings and to use all of our brain and mind, Silva says, we have continued to fight each other like animals, and we continue to suffer because of ignorance.

Silva says that the more he read the Bible, the less he understood the clergy. On the one hand, the clergy would say that God is omnipotent. Then they would say that there is a devil who could counteract God’s instructions, and humans had to choose between God and the devil. That makes it sound like humans hold the balance of power, so that the winner in this power struggle would be the one that humans sided with!

There is no devil, Silva said, because God is all mighty and omnipotent.

Another thing he heard from the clergy is that God forgives everyone of everything, but then they add that there is a hell for those who are not forgiven.

To me, an all forgiving God does not need a hell, Silva says. To me, it is the clergy who are doing or saying things that are confusing to me, and this state of confusion causes me to doubt the scribes who wrote the Bible.

Silva’s viewpoint is sometimes criticized by the clergy as being too simplistic. He counters that confusion is a way to gain control of people. When people are confused, he said, they can be mislead by people who pretend to have all the answers. Just look at the cult leaders who persuade all their followers to commit suicide. And look at the clergy, he adds, who criticize me for daring to suggest that people think for themselves rather than blindly follow somebody else.

Another thing that Silva could not comprehend was when somebody wrote in the Bible about what God told Adam and Eve. Whoever wrote that, he says, "how did they become aware of what God told Adam and Eve, since no one else existed then?

It is these kinds of things that don’t make much sense to me; they confuse me and cause me to doubt the Bible.

After analyzing the situation for a long time, Silva came to the conclusion that the Bible was written by ordinary people, people just like you and me he says. They were trying to make sense of what was happening on the planet, and then advise us with their wisdom.

They decided what was best hundreds and even thousands of years ago, when conditions were very different, he says. "To me, it still doesn’t make much sense for us to try to adjust our lives and our beliefs to conform to the beliefs that people held so long ago.

For instance, he continued, "when the Bible was written, even the New Testament, people thought that the world was flat, and that we were at the center of the universe. When Galileo tried to point out that Copernicus was correct when he said that the earth was not even at the center of the solar system, much less at the center of the entire universe, he was tortured and forced to recant and go along with the official church doctrine.

Just a few years ago, the Catholic church finally admitted that they were wrong, he said. I wonder how many more things they are wrong about?

Even though he had his doubts, Silva still believed that much of what was presented in the Bible was valid. The problem was: How to determine which parts are valid, and which parts are based on old information that needs to be updated.

He found a simple way to solve this dilemma: The scientific method.

What I did, Silva explains, "was to take the writings of each author and put those writing to a scientific test, then evaluate the results.

So what I have done, right or wrong, he continued, is to take information, a little bit at a time, and test it by trying to use it to solve existing problems with it.

If the information could not be used to correct problems, then it was useless information and had no value as far as he was concerned.

So, he concludes, the truthful truth is only that which, when applied, solves problems. This applies to all information, regardless of where it comes from and regardless of how new or old it is.

This book goes into much detail about Silva research and his conclusions. At this point, a guide – sort of a road map – would be in order. With that in mind, here is the way that Jose Silva condenses the results of his research:

No. 1: We were sent to planet earth primarily to improve living conditions. Everything else is secondary.

No. 2: Whenever we are confronted with a problem that hinders living conditions and we do not have the information to solve it, we then qualify to get the information from higher intelligence, the Celestial Dimension as people now call it, in order to correct the problem.

No. 3: The connection to the Celestial Dimension was originally discovered by Jesus Christ, who called it the Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven.

No. 4: Help from higher intelligence at this Celestial Dimension can only be obtained for solving problems that hinder living conditions. For solving other kinds of problems, we are to use our own intelligence.

No. 5: To contact higher intelligence on the other side, the Celestial Dimension, we should proceed in the following manner, with the Silva UltraMind ESP Systems MentalVideo technique:

a. At beta, with your eyes open, mentally create, with visualization, a MentalVideo of a problem, or the existing situation. Include everything that belongs to the animate matter kingdom. Animate matter means everything that contains life.

b. After you have completed the MentalVideo of the problem, use visualization to review it at the beta (outer conscious) brain wave level, with your eyes closed.

c. Later, when you are in bed and ready to go to sleep, go to your center (the Alpha brain wave level) with the
