#mindcontrol A Case of Mind Control - Part 3 As I was driving home, I began to ponder where to start on this research. I had enough to go on to get me started. If we're talking mind control we're talking about the mind. Thought is a product of the mind. Control the mind and you control the product. I need to create a base first. A good base might be something I came across about 10 years ago. The mind is powerful, more powerful than what we can imagine, or at least most of us. The great minds through the centuries realized this. DaVinci, Newton,Copernicus, Einstein, Mozart and Beethoven realized this power. Einstein frankly thought what he had done with his various theories. Or so a documentary on The History Channel reported.

The item I came across was The Edinburgh Lectures. These are a series of articles written by Thomas Troward, a British civil servant in India, who died in 1916. He lectured on metaphysical and esoteric studies. His ideas about the subjective and objective mind are good and he felt hypnotism was a science.

When I got home I searched the Internet on Google and found the Troward works. I went to the part about the subjective and objective mind. One area touched on is hypnotism and Troward wrote that hypnotism revealed the dual nature of the mind. The debate is whether or not this is a result of 2 separate minds or the action of the same mind in the employment of 2 separate functions. For convenience Troward, in his lectures, used the dual action as if proceeded by the 2 minds, an outer and an inner, and the inner mind the subjective and the outer mind as the objective. The subjective mind is entirely under the control of the objective mind. The subjective mind works out with the utmost fidelity and reproduces the final consequences whatever the objective mind impresses upon it and hypnotism has shown that the ideas can be impressed on the subjective mind of someone else or that of its own individuality.

This was very important stuff. Someone could put ideas into another person's head (peer pressure) and get away with it. The objective mind acts as a buffer between the outside world and inner self. Break down the objective barrier a bit (with drugs/alcohol) and it's easier to get through to the subjective mind.

I felt this was a good start and needed to know more details before I could begin to draw conclusions. I'd have more details later.
