Here is what one reader said about Mind Programming:
"READ THIS BOOK - if you want fabulous insight into the secret battles that are being waged for your mind - AND want tangible solutions to help you protect it.
"As a student of thought physics, metaphysics, quantum physics, and all things related to the powers of our minds, including the paranormal, I have felt for some time that the last wars on this planet will be fought not for the control of land or money but for our minds.
"Eldon's book outlines in excellent detail the battle that is going on-- and documents how it has been going on for some time. Anyone familiar with Remote Viewing or the experiments done by our own CIA and other agencies knows the frightening validity of this reality.
"I especially love that Eldon did not just leave us in conspiracy land, but also devoted the second half of the book to actual exercises we can do to experience the mysteries of our minds and feel the excitement of exploring this vastly unknown frontier.
"Here's an interesting side benefit you may not expect: When you tap into these deeper levels of mind and connect with the all knowing part of yourself, you begin to experience life in a very different, very peaceful way.
"So, probably the best reason of all to read this book is to learn to develop the powers of your mind for good. When you do that, you will be, in my opinion, doing high soul work to truly help this planet and everyone on it.
"It doesn't get much better than that, does it now?
"P. S. The Subliminal CD "Serenity" included in the book is a fabulous surprise gift. Simply priceless - all of it."

Mind Programming is really two books in one. The first half of the book is the tell-all story that uncovers the unseen influences that are so pervasive, penetrating and effective. It is no wonder that failure is so much more common than success! The second half of the book is all about the tools and technologies you can use to cleanse your mind of the non-sense you may not have even recognized as being present before reading this liberating book. Think about it. How many original thoughts do you really have? How many thoughts are about your limitations, your fears, your anxieties, the things you want, and so forth. You will learn that from sickness and anxiety to the way you comb your hair and dress, and so much more, all are a part of what you have been trained to think and choose. You will also learn some very simple easy-to-use tools that can free your mind and empower your being.

These tools range from exercises that will not cost you a penny, such as the '50-day plan,' automatic writing, and mind exercises, to high tech (but affordable) tools such as the 'God Helmet.' Whatever your preference, Mind Programming will provide you with the information vital for today's climate.
PLUS: Mind Programming ships with a free, high-tech, mind-training CD, that utilizes the patented and proven InnerTalk technology.

Are you really free? Only if you can take back control of your mind. Thank heavens, Dr. Taylor shows us how in one of the most important books I have ever read."

Watch What You Watch
Watch What You Watch
Just today I had the occasion to share some of the information and data regarding the influence on beliefs and behavior patterns that arises as a result of the media. The fact is, the information game of the day, today and everyday, is to sell you something, to gain some advantage, to plant something in your mind and so forth. When asked today, “I take it that you see yourself on some mission informing the masses of this brainwashing,” my answer was a passionate, “Yes!”
Those of you who have read my books know that billions and billions of dollars have been spent learning how to control your every choice—even what choices to give you to choose between. Very sophisticated means are employed for this purpose including such things as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) scans to view exactly what goes on and in what area of the brain when a stimulus is presented. These mind plumbers are intent on plumbing the deepest regions of the subconscious where the evidence suggests all choice originates. Said another way, this means that programming your subconscious gives rise to the personal illusion of choice—you only think you’re doing the choosing when in fact, as bizarre as it may sound, your subconscious has already done that for you.
The bottom line for those pragmatists like myself that are among us goes like this. The information you put into your mind registers somewhere in the unconscious and may at some point predispose your action, thoughts and behavior—and this is just fact! Our children see commercials, some full of sexual content as is the case with the new green M & Ms commercial, and we must ask, what are we suggesting to our children? We watch a commercial that suggests doom and gloom unless we buy gold, what are we programming? The family views a commercial suggesting flu season and illness and what do you think goes into that old mind program? I can’t prove it definitively, but I am aware of a case where a 6-year-old boy who was absolutely fascinated by technology watched a television show about a young man with asthma. The boy in the show had a hand held inhaler and within a couple of days the child owned the asthma symptoms and he got his inhaler. He outgrew the condition within a couple of years but the onset and the show were just too closely linked for this connection to go unnoticed.
Pay attention to the message. Whether it is for self or others, watch what you’re watching! Ask yourself, what does this suggest? Is this a suggestion I want? Know this, the typical person goes into the same brain wave state (alpha) that is associated with hypnosis in under three minutes when watching television. How would you like to go to your local hypnotherapist and have them suggest the same things to you that you are watching on television?
Thanks for the read,
Eldon

The Real You
The Real You
Everyone has heard of the power of the mind but few know just how much someone else owns their own mind. Before you say, “Not me,” think about this, “When was the last time you had an original thought?”
Billions of dollars have been spent since the early part of the last century to learn how your mind works, what excites you, how to influence and manipulate you and more. Manipulating your mind is legal and done everyday. Who does it? The government, educators, salesman, ad agencies, and even your family, peers and friends. In short, in almost every way you are the result of a program written by the influences you have consumed in your lifetime.
What you wear, how you stand, how you do your hair, the clothes you wear, and so forth—these things represent you? Are they you? How do you know the real you? Like most, you probably practiced some conversation, or what you might have said, or you may have stood in front of the mirror and practiced saying something, looking a certain way, and so forth. These practice sessions have become who you are, or they have at least influenced you, and that too is understood and designed to be a part of the programming. We are all imprinted like a duckling raised with chickens.
‘Same old same old,’ ‘I don’t get even I get evener,’ ‘go ahead and make my day’-- are there any such thoughts in your mind? What kind of bumper sticker slogans do you carry around in your mind? Do you have thoughts that you do not want? Do you do things and not know why? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you need to turn off the programming and turn inward to find yourself.
Your creativity—your true self—you, the real you deserves to be the best possible. True self help begins by uncovering our real selves and changing our inner talk until it reflects our desires. The real you comes from the inside-out, not the outside-in. I know no better way to access your best self than to saturate your mind with positive input while taking time out to be still and know, above all else, your self.
Do yourself a real favor and take time to get to know your true self. I know you won’t be disappointed.
To the miracle that you are
and thanks for the read,
Eldon

The Genie Within
THE GENIE
Imagine that within you was a genie, a veritable creation machine capable of bringing you anything you desired-good and bad.
Let’s imagine that you were unaware of this genie within or had heard about it but disbelieved. Perhaps you’d tried to believe and discovered that it was bogus-the whole thing about the genie within was just so much superstitious mumbo jumbo. We’re all familiar with such phrases as “the power of the mind,” “mind over matter,” and “the mind-body connection.” We’ve heard of spontaneous healings and achieving or creating the life of our dreams. Most of us have even experienced some of this, even if it appears to be in very limited ways. Almost everyone today has at least heard of the book and movie The Secret. They were marketed in an absolutely magnificent manner, and although they contain no real secrets, they nevertheless retold in new ways the inner mystical teachings of all ages. The Secret informed readers and viewers that one’s mind was a genie of sorts, for whatever it held in sufficient detail it would attract or create, and these two words were actually interchangeable in this context.
Maybe you watched The Oprah Winfrey Show, Larry King Live, or some other program and heard of the magnificent wealth and abundance that people had attracted using The Secret. Perhaps you grabbed a book, CD, or DVD all about the Law of Attraction and pored through it to glean the exact hows, whys, and wherefores. Now armed with the secret knowledge and the testimony of so many, you created a vision board and printed out affirmations that you pasted everywhere so you’d constantly see them. You began visualizing all the things you wanted to attract and even started down the road of daily meditation.
You got on the Internet and looked up such terms as New Age and metaphysical. You subscribed to numerous mailing lists, tuned in to New Age Internet radio shows, and began to buy self-help books. Alas, nothing wonderful happened.
Unfortunately, that’s the experience of most people who tuned in to the idea of the genie within. Some, however, found a different result. They manifested their home, a special relationship, or the like. Not many achieved this, mind you, but some. Why?
The mind is that genie, and it’s the doorway to the manifestation process, although its role is often misunderstood. It’s an entry point, a doorway, not the manifestation tool per se. The mind provides the pictures, not the feeling. It organizes our activity to build a vision board, post the affirmations, and so forth. It invests some learned belief (expectation) in the process. Actually, the mind’s highest role is inhibition.
Let me say that again: The mind’s highest role is inhibition!
The Human Mind
Like it or not, we’re all the product of millions of years of survival evolution. Wired in every one of us, no matter what our calling-including the highest evolved of spiritual beings now walking the earth-are primitive mechanisms that respond to primitive and sometimes rather gross stimuli.
Often, stimuli that we consciously claim as reprehensible are nevertheless processed subconsciously in ways that drive us toward seeking more of the same. Those mechanisms respond to fight and flight, taboo images, socially fearful rejections, and similar stimuli in a mechanical way-thus, the term mechanism.
The human brain is a marvel of evolution, and one of its most splendid developments as far as human consciousness is concerned is the cerebral cortex. One of my early teachers, Professor Carl LaPrecht, used to say,
“Whenever you find something in nature in great abundance, pay attention. It is critical to the system.”
The cortex or gray matter is by far the largest part of the brain. And it’s within the cortex that inhibitory power resides. The cortex is the brake.
Cortical power inhibits impulses that aren’t in our best interest or the result of our best intentions. The cortex shuts off the television when the content is violent, suggestive of disease and illness, or otherwise contains matter that’s purely garbage.
Our minds are like large trash containers: we can put anything into them. And like Dumpsters, they’re difficult to clean out. Dumpsters don’t tip over easily, and to clean one requires climbing inside, perhaps with a garden hose, a bucket of hot water, cleaning products, brushes, and so forth. What a tedious and nasty job. All of us have minds, of course, and evidence suggests that when we come into the world our minds aren’t blank slates, despite the tabula-rasa argument by the philosopher John Locke.
No, it appears that certain predispositions and even some types of knowledge (cell memory and more) are already written in our minds when we make our first inhalation. Still, the content of our mind that’s acquired following birth is the beginning of what we shall eventually hold as both our identity and our knowledge/beliefs.
The Law of Attraction
You may have heard of the three components of the Law of Attraction-ask, believe, and receive. This sounds really easy until you question the degree of your belief, and that’s where most people fail. I actually divide belief into three components that must be activated in the proper sequence to manifest using the inner genie. These components are:
1. The emotional input that’s passionate and convinced
2. The confidence/mental element that can simply and truly visualize something and then let it go, knowing it will happen
3. The spiritual sincerity that realizes at the deepest level of our beings that we’re a gift from the Creator. Knowing that, we release our vision, for we believe this or something better, according to the highest good of all concerned.
Anything that would distract from thinking, feeling, and knowing these three components will, in direct proportion, sabotage our efforts at manifesting our desires.
Given this understanding, it becomes easier to see why some people first manifest their desires, only to lose their treasures and find themselves worse off than they were before, some fail to manifest at all, and others seem to manifest the opposite of what they’re seeking. With this under your belt, you might ask, as I did: Why do most people seem handicapped by the inability to use the genie within and create the reality they deserve? The Dumpster analogy is the first clue to answering this question. The garbage some hold in their minds would be frightening if it were visible to the public eye. As Strongheart, the German shepherd hero of the movies, put it in his letters to Boone, “What a dreadful sight to see people’s faces as incomplete as their minds.”
I would paraphrase: “What a horrible sight to see people’s faces as grotesque as the worst in their minds.”
I’d like to imagine a world full of joy, peace, balance, and harmony. That’s truly difficult to do when nature seems so callous and carnivorous. As I think about this, I realize that I’m anthropomorphizing nature, so I turn my thoughts to humans, where I find such horrible acts that a lion killing a lamb is innocent in comparison.
How do we truly find peace, balance, and harmony?
How do we gain spiritual sincerity and merge this with the right balance of mental and emotional stuff to manifest a world full of peace, balance, and harmony?
For some, manifestation is about things such as cars, swimming pools, houses, riches, sexy this and that, and the gratification of other sensual desires. For the spiritually sincere, manifestation is first about peace, balance, and harmony and then about health and individual happiness.
These are complex issues that labels alone don’t cover, so we can let the subject rest with this: each individual has a purpose for being here; and when individuals seek to manifest according to their purpose, they’re enlightening themselves and the world around them. Back to the main point: the mind is both ignition and brake. First thing in the morning, I open my eyes and begin talking to myself. My thoughts may recognize a dream or immediately turn to the new day’s itinerary.
The mind goes immediately to delivering the inner world of thoughts, beliefs, ambitions, goals, and so forth. That constant stream of consciousness-self-talk-informs us of our mood, attitudes, likes, dislikes, and so much more. It’s this stream of consciousness that reflects the contents of our “Dumpster.”
We started this dialectic journey by imagining a genie within. I believe that this inner genie actually exists, but if you don’t, that’s okay. What I intend to show you is that the genie has been creating all along, even if you think that it’s only some concocted get-rich scheme.
In fact, the worse your life might seem, the higher the probability that the genie is working hard at fulfilling your every fear (emotion), thought (expectation), and spiritual insight (”Life sucks, and then you die”). It’s in precisely this way that your hopes and ambitions are slain. Thus, your mind has been turned into the slayer.

In fact, the worse your life might seem, the higher the probability that the genie is working hard at fulfilling your every fear (emotion), thought (expectation), and spiritual insight (”Life sucks, and then you die”). It’s in precisely this way that your hopes and ambitions are slain. Thus, your mind has been turned into the slayer.
About the Author: The Genie was excerpted from Eldon Taylor’s latest release Mind Programming. Eldon Taylor has made a lifelong study of the human mind and has earned doctoral degrees in clinical psychology and pastoral psychology. He is the CEO of Progressive Awareness Research, an organization dedicated to researching techniques for accessing the immense powers of the mind, and is the author of the New York Times best seller, Choices and Illusions.

What’s Wrong With This Picture?
What’s Wrong With This Picture?
Imagine a child, perhaps your own. It doesn’t matter if it’s a girl or a boy. Let’s give the child the name: Bobbie. Bobbie wants very badly to win the state competition in any event—let’s just say it’s a “Math Is Cool” competition. Bobbie is good a math—really good. Bobbie practices and practices and studies for the upcoming competition. Bobbie has heard of visualization, so Bobbie begins visualizing the victory.
Bobbie reads all about visualizing success. Books that teach the power of attraction, the power of the mind to create, the power to focus, visualize in detail and with emotion and to let the visualization go, knowing that it is done. Bobbie has done all of this and Bobbie has done it just exactly as taught.
Bobbie does well at State but Bobbie does not win. Bobbie does not even get an award. Bobbie goes away sad and feeling broken. Bobbie knows the winner. The winner doesn’t practice, study or visualize. In fact, the winner doesn’t even seem to care if they win or not. Bobbie doesn’t understand and Bobbie comes to you for answers. What do you tell Bobbie?
Just pause now and genuinely reflect on what would you tell Bobbie? What would you tell your own?
What’s wrong with this picture? Again, take a moment and ask yourself this question, “What is wrong with this picture?”
I assume that before you continue reading you have taken the time to really give serious thought to the past two paragraphs. If not, please do so for the value here is not in how quickly you can read the material or whether you can comprehend the words, the real value is in the feeling that comes when you realize that what’s wrong is beyond your controls. Perhaps it’s also easy to become agitated—maybe this visualization stuff is all just so much hocus-pocus.
Here is what we know scientifically about visualization. It works to improve motor skills. Vividly imaging shooting free throws with a basketball is statistically almost as effective as practicing. It can also work to attract things into people’s lives. It can influence how one walks, how they dress, how they speak, even how they talk to themselves. It can definitely influence levels of confidence; form self-fulfilling prophesies and mold expectations while shaping in some ways future and careers. But with all that said, does it create like creating a painting or building a race car? Even more provocative, by way of interrogation, should we be visualizing the stuff we want to create?
On any given night in America there might be a million people tuned into some lottery drawing, all in hopes of winning the jackpot. If they all vividly visualize winning will the prize be split or will it take one million episodes for each to realize their visualization? When put in this light, when held under this level of scrutiny, what is it really about visualization and manifestation that so many are claiming?
In my opinion, for what it’s worth, there is a lot of nonsense out there about visualization. We are all capable of certain types of manifestation but it is my training and experience that in order for a lasting manifestation to be realized, we must first make the changes in ourselves. We are much more likely to manifest success when we look and act successful. Creating a vision board and hanging it in the television room next to that good old TV, filling that board with pictures of the house, the car, the flower garden and so forth of our dreams, visualizing the same over and over, even smelling the flowers and feeling the leather seats or holding that door knob in our hand during our visualizations, then opening our eyes and watching that television while we relax and put something into our mouths—all of this just doesn’t cut it!
In other words, if the changes are in us then the manifestation may follow—but then the question, because we can, should we?
There is a story I like about a man who finds God. God looks upon this man as a parent might its child. Anxious to tell the child a few things, God approaches to speak. There are only a few brief moments available, for God knows that soon this interlude will disappear. Before God can speak, the man recognizing the presence of God anxiously begins an endless steam of questions. Like a child, they are questions such as, “Why is the sky blue?” “Why is the earth round?” God patiently provides the answers but suddenly the phone rings and our man is awakened from his dream. “Wow,” he thinks, “God just answered my questions in my dream.” Unfortunately, the question he did not ask would have given God a chance to tell our fellow just exactly what God thought he should know. The question that went unasked was, “What do you want me to know now God?”
Isn’t visualization a little along this line, if what we are doing is designed to fulfill us, to serve our purpose—for that matter, to make us truly happy? Should Bobbie be asking, “What would you have me know and do now?” as opposed to attempting to force an outcome? Choices and confusion. As I pointed out in my book, Choices and Illusions, I submit that each of us is different, with different gifts, separate identities and all of this is part of our birthright. It is in accepting and employing to the very best of our abilities those gifts given us that we fulfill our purpose. As my friend and wife says, “Let me know what you want me to know and do. Let me do Thy work and if I am doing as I should be doing, help me so it is easy.” I think of it this way, “Let me do Thy will, for my perfect will is Thy will.”
Blessing to all of you and thanks for the read,

Mind Programming
You are not free if your mind is not free! Mind Programming is my latest book. It was my desire to once and for all expose the intentional efforts and the billions of dollars spent by a few to control the masses. Thought control could be said to be very real in this day and age and most are oblivious to it. It is much more than just subliminal although that technology has a very definite role. If you really care what’s in your mind, then this information is for you. If you truly seek self-improvement, personal growth and the like, then you must read this book. Take a look at the trailer, I think you will want to order your copy today.

It's Never Too Late
It’s Never Too Late
Excerpted in part from Choices and Illusions by Eldon Taylor
In my journey there came a point when I hungered for more metaphysical information. I enrolled in a California university, The University of Metaphysics, and by correspondence commenced a study in metaphysical science. This was not the metaphysics of an upper division philosophy course, as I expected; rather, it was a practical metaphysics for living. I had worked for a long time, often doubling the required number of exams in order to reach their designated bachelor’s level of education in this unique form of metaphysical science when they sent me the news. I was ready to advance, but to do so I must become an ordained minister.
This was not a strictly academic environment, and I should have recognized that, but the requirement blind-sided me. Still, I knew I was not worthy of being anyone’s minister, including myself.
Weeks passed, and one Sunday afternoon while reading spiritual materials, I remembered a teaching from the school. I pulled out a binder in which I kept many notes, and the letter from the university fell upon the floor. As I picked it up, I knew immediately that I missed the lessons and all the joy and change they had brought into my life. I sat back down in my recliner and held the letter in my lap.
My thoughts put me to sleep, and soon I was dreaming. This is the dream.
Once upon a time a man looked to himself. He spoke to himself, “I desire to serve God, but my life has been full of error. The example I have set is not that of a cleric. People will only scoff and say, ‘Know ye them by the fruits of their tree.’ Who am I, then, to speak for or of God?”
With these words circling within his head, the troubled man lay down to rest. He spoke to God. “Your will, not mine, be done.”
As he drifted into sleep, pictures began appearing that told this story.
Once there stood a tree—a tree of life, full of fruit. The limbs bent toward the earth under the weight of the lush red cherries. The cherries danced in jubilee with the breeze that bathed their tender skins and turned their fullness and vivid color to face the Father, the Sun of the heavens.
With the dew and the rain they would polish their beauty and drink of the earth; to store within the energy and vitality of life taken from the soil through the roots and fired with the spirit of the Sun radiating through the leaves of their parent tree.
But alas, not all of the children of the tree would mature into lush red fruit. Out of an urge to experience and learn on his own, one turned away from the Father and ignored the parental warnings. Charlie, as he was known by the others, kept his life juices warm, daring the cold, the frost, the elements. He began to fill with color and mature early.
Pivoting on his base, he turned away from the Sun and took shade in the leaves. Daring to fornicate with the world, Charlie refused to release the natural pesticides within himself and took up affairs with the parasites.
Soon his delicate skin was broken, and his fruit exposed. The fragrance attracted the birds, and they too feasted on his flesh. Charlie lived off the flesh and of the world. Passion, experience, and knowledge were his prize.
Then one day the gardener came. Gently he took from the parent the pure and ripened children, leaving only Charlie behind. Hanging alone, Charlie looked about him. The fall nights were cold and lonely. His friends, the birds, were on wing, abandoning him. His flesh had spoiled, and even the insects avoided him now. His soul hung onto his tattered body. The elements he had once faced with a thrill now threatened to snap him from the stem of life. Charlie was sad and lonely. He had learned these things: knowledge is not necessarily wisdom; experience is not always a kind teacher; and passion is sometimes a poison that betrays whatever value there is to be had in experience and knowledge.
Charlie looked up at the beautiful blue sky and the buoyant white billowy clouds adrift, seemingly with nothing to do or a care in the world, lazily on sail across the vast blue heavens. “They and the lilies of the field,” Charlie said to himself.
“Dear God,” he spoke aloud, “I have sinned. I have wasted the beauty of your flower and turned my back on simple truth. In my pursuit of wisdom, I lost sight of Your Great Form and indulged in physical illusions. I was lost. I alone am to blame. I give my essence over to thee, Creator of all that is good within me and all that could ever be love within me. For you are Eternal Love, and what is best for me is also your way. That I should discover this so late in my life is my most significant regret.
“I have watched the caterpillar spin his cocoon and perch on the leaves above me as a butterfly,” Charlie continued, “but I fear that this recognition has come so late in my life that I will be unable to share this Beauty, this Truth, with others.”
With that Charlie lowered his head. Suddenly a squirrel jerked him from the limb and scampered down the tree and across the meadow. The squirrel paused, examined Charlie, and then as though rejecting him, dropped Charlie in the grass.
Charlie rested there for a day or two, and then the snow came. Covered by the white blanket, Charlie slept.
The seasons passed as though in the twinkling of an eye. Charlie took root and grew strong. From his branches came blossoms, followed by fruit more beautiful than Charlie could ever remember beholding.
Charlie praised and gave thanks to God!
The lowly man in my dream raised his head from slumber. His prayer had been answered. The Lord does not forsake man; man forsakes the Lord. Thy will, not mine, be done; for, after all, in their eternal boundless beauty, they are one and the same.
My life has changed since this dream. It really never is too late. Thanks for the read and all the best. Eldon
