The importance of the “Placebo” effect

What has been called the placebo effect is in reality something far more complex and interesting than you have been led to believe.

And it has bearing on the current world situation to a very high degree.

The conclusions I come to are going to sound “fantastic”, at least to those unable to do logic and/or research the factual information I present for themselves, so as to verify I am not making anything up.

So, the approach will be to list a number of factual tests that have been done and have achieved the same results in a number of repeatable studies. Then I will present some additional information, usually not linked to the placebo effect at all, which will also require some research on your part in case you don’t want to take my word for it, which I always encourage you to do anyway. The research I mean, not taking my word for it. And finally I will explain what I think the placebo effect really is and how it works. And why it’s very important in the present dystopian reality we inhabit.

What is the placebo effect? A basic introduction.

The placebo effect is one that was noted by doctors when administering to a group of people some drug or medication that was supposed to make them better while administering to a control group sugar tablets or some other innocuous substance that did not contain the drug being used on the other patients.

What was discovered is that those taking the sugar tablets or saline solution or water, or whatever absolutely drug-free thing was being given to them, still healed better than people who received nothing and sometimes healed better than the ones taking the medication. This was thought to happen as a result of “mind over matter” the people receiving sugar tablets were not aware of being the control group, so they thought they were getting better and this somehow made them better. Some extreme cases of this have been well documented in a book called the holographic universe.

But if simple belief in a drug you were NOT being given could heal you, did you need the drug at all? So a series of tests with double blind situations were done. Over decades here is what the results showed time and again.

• If the patients did not know who was receiving the placebo (non-active sugar pills or water, etc) and they believed they were getting the drug they healed better than people not receiving anything.
• If the doctors administering the placebo did not know it was a placebo and thought it was an effective drug the patients improved too when compared to those who got nothing. In other words, the belief of the doctors alone transferred to the patients. And if I recall right, this was the case even if the patients knew it was a placebo but the doctors did not.

So. How would classical materialistic based science explain this transference of “belief”?

It can’t.

How does the placebo effect actually work?

Well. The Western version can’t. Unless you are familiar with at least some of the concepts discussed by Harold Aspen, Thomas Bearden, Michael Persinger and others and you are able to synergistically understand the links between them. You also need at least a rudimentary understanding of the physics of Burkhard Heim.

In Russia however, this is understood far better and in short, the psychotronic healing chambers I discuss in my “fiction” work are an easy way to grasp the concept of how you can heal people by use of various electromagnetic/frequency/resonance fields which can be induced mechanically. And I have it on good authority that such psychotronic healing chambers actually not only exist, but have existed for a long time. Decades at the very least.

The really important thing to note is that mechanical means of achieving such healing certainly may make the process easier and accessible to all, but they are not an absolute requirement.

Everyone from Tibetan monks, who are more likely to be able to “activate” such responses from the body, to even people I know personally, have at times healed in ways that are thought to be miraculous. You could, in effect say that the placebo effect is the way science has discovered or measured the results that can be achieved with genuine faith.

Of course, the danger here is that of falling into the trap of the unwashed, stinking, hippie masses of New Agers that will tell you if your child dies of cancer it’s because you and your child have negative vibes and don’t pray hard enough. Which is not just idiotic, bit also cruel in the way that only the truly uneducated ignorants can be.

So, allow me to explain the mechanism in simple, yet hopefully also relatively complete format.

My working hypothesis, which I have arrived at only after more than 15 years of practicing clinical hypnosis, is as follows:

• Yes, there probably is some state of mind/frequency/prayer that theoretically could or can heal just about anything. I have written in some more detail on this concept of how to pray correctly in both my Systema book as well as as in Believe! and Reclaiming the Catholic Church. HOWEVER…
• And it’s a HUGE however, there usually can be and almost always are, very real obstacles to your being able to achieve this specific state for any given thing. Particularly when it is of a huge importance like the health of your child and so on. The reason being that fear, desire, doubt, and so on are all counter-productive, and how can you NOT have all of those things when something really important is on the line?
• In addition to the above-mentioned “states of mind” situations, there usually also are other physiological factors. Various blockages in your body which translate into mental counterparts. If, for example you have chronic tension in your shoulders and neck, you will have a corresponding mental mind-map that is similarly “fossilised” and thus unable to relax or otherwise assume the required physical state to produce the more etheric mental state (or electromagnetic field at the right frequency, if you prefer).

In normal effect, the placebo effect is the residual or partial ability you unconsciously have access to, or rather, to be more accurate, that your body has access to (almost without your awareness of it entirely) in order to naturally heal itself. Being unconscious, your conscious efforts to produce the same result will generally fail, unless you have achieved a relatively high level of internal congruity which honestly, 99.99% of human beings never are even aware of, much less actively seek it.

So what to do? And how do I know this anyway?

Learning to control your own body internally is a good first step, but even after a couple of decades of martial arts or meditation or learning how to control your heart rate, breathing and so on, it will not guarantee your ability to enter the right frame of mind or physiological state.

I know this because I have practiced martial arts for about 4 decades and hypnosis for more than 15 years. Hypnosis is intimately related to changing mental states and allowing your body to heal itself. Hypnosis goes beyond what most people assume is mere “suggestion”, which some interpret to mean “gullible” or weak-minded or something of the sort. All of which is nonsense.

Everyone can be hypnotised. In fact animals can be too. Which is not to say that every hypnotist can hypnotise every person. But the state of hypnotic trance is not only achievable by everyone, but it has profound effects on us when used correctly.

I have had patients that had visited up to 15 hypnotists, unsuccessfully, and smoked for many years, completely stop smoking after a 45 minute session with me. I have also seen the effects of hypnosis on the physical body, having experimented on this myself with regard to pain, scarring, healing of injuries and so on, but also on the bodies of others, from people that had MS to an accidental burn not evidencing as having taken place.

There is also the work of Peter Garajev, which I discussed in some depth in my System book, which explains how our DNA can also be thought of as a sort of mini-wormhole creator for information. Which is why things like timeline and regression therapy in hypnosis work and can seemingly reach back in time and undo various trauma or alter the past consequences in how they play out here in the present and the future.

The relevance today.

If you have read/understood my previous post on the space of variations, and the Mandala effect possibilities you may have begun to understand, that there is certainly enough scientific evidence (and I mean that as ACTUALLY scientific, not circus-monkey, politically trained “science”) that as God on some level wishes us to be co-creators of reality, and as we are made in His image, and we do have creationary power to some degree, we may well be able to influence reality. Certainly, at the very least, as it pertains to our own health; and quite possibly in much larger ways too. Your absolute faith can and does produce results and you can verify this for yourself scientifically by keeping track of your own experiences. Learning to control your emotions will inevitably help in many other spheres of life too, as does learning to flexibilise your body physically, as the practice of Systema teaches with pretty much every drill. And for a push into the direction you want to go, you can also use hypnosis, either learn how to self-hypnotise, or take a session or more, as needed.

In short, you have far more power over your own states of being than you have been led to believe.
