Mind Control

and the

Indian Rope Trick
|

|

|
|
In the book, "Beyond Telepathy", Dr. Andrija Puharich recounts his
|
|
experience with an Indian fakir. Also present at the event were a
|
|
colleague and several hundred other witnesses.
|
|
|
|
A rope is cast up into the air where it remains suspended yet with
|
|
no visible means of support.
|
|
|
|
A small boy goes up the rope followed by an apparently angry
|
|
magician wielding a knife.
|
|
|
|
Both magician and boy seem to vanish at the top of the rope. Screams
|
|
are then heard, followed by a grisly rain of dismembered parts.
|
|
|
|
The magician reappears at the top of the rope and climbs back down
|
|
holding a bloody knife. He then places the bloody parts in a box,
|
|
closes the lid and within moments the boy emerges smiling and whole
|
|
with no apparent damage.
|
|
|
|
In some performances, witnesses see a dog run off with an arm or
|
|
leg which of course has to be recovered.
|
|
|
|
Puharich and his colleague saw the magician collect the parts of the
|
|
boy in a basket, go back up the rope and return with the boy whole.
|
|
|
|
All during this spectacle, pictures were taken to record the
|
|
phenomena. When the film was developed, the fakir and boy were seen
|
|
to be standing impassively by the rope lying coiled on the floor.
|
|
|
|
Puharich concludes that the
|
|
|
|
"hallucination was telepathically inspired and extended to the
|
|
several hundred people present."
|
|
|
|
In 1934, the Rope trick was performed in London on two separate
|
|
occasions. When the film from concealed cameras was developed, the
|
|
rope was seen to remain lying on the ground while the boy sneaked
|
|
off to hide in the bushes.
|
|
|
|
Witnesses to the event were seeing scenes which did not actually
|
|
occur in reality, but the mental projections of someone skilled in
|
|
the art of either hypnosis or extreme concentration with the ability
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to telepathically project what they visualized.
|
|
|
|
A variation on the Rope trick was witnessed in French West Africa by
|
|
William Seabrook in 1930.
|
|
|
|
"There were two living children close to me. I touched them with
|
|
my hands. And equally close were the two men with their
|
|
swords....iron, three-dimensional, metal, cold and hard. And
|
|
this is what I now SAW with my eyes, but you will understand why
|
|
I am reluctant to tell of it, and that I do not know what SEEING
|
|
means.
|
|
|
|
Each man, holding his sword stiffly upward with his left hand,
|
|
tossed a child high in the air with his right, then caught it
|
|
full upon the point.....No blood flowed....
|
|
|
|
The crowd screamed now, falling to its knees. Many veiled their
|
|
eyes with their hands, others fell prostrate. Through the crowd
|
|
the jugglers marched, each bearing a child aloft, IMPALED UPON
|
|
HIS SWORD...
|
|
|
|
...and disappeared into the witchdoctor's enclosure."
|
|
|
|
Seabrook later saw and touched the children, who seemed completely
|
|
undamaged by their ordeal. Few illusions can be so arrogantly
|
|
paraded through a disbelieving crowd.

|
|
Recent conversations with our friend Larry B. yielded an interesting
|
|
story.
|
|
|
|
Loosely told, our friend said he knew a hypnotist who went to India
|
|
to study the fakirs and prove that neither mesmerism or hypnotism
|
|
could be used to influence the actions or perceptions of another
|
|
WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT or them being consciously aware of it.
|
|
|
|
On docking, the hypnotist was wandering around the dock when he met
|
|
a small, kindly Indian man. A discussion led to the purpose of the
|
|
visit. The hypnotist was looking at the Indian and stating that he
|
|
was absolutely certain the NO ONE COULD BE INFLUENCED against their
|
|
knowledge or without being aware of it.
|
|
|
|
As he spoke, a storm began to blow in. The clouds grew dark and
|
|
ominous and the wind began to rage. People were being blown down
|
|
and into the water while boats were tossed around as if made of
|
|
balsa wood.
|
|
|
|
The hypnotist grew rather alarmed at what was happening around him
|
|
and on looking back at the Indian, he noticed a kindly smile.
|
|
INSTANTLY, all signs of a storm disappeared to reveal a perfectly
|
|
clear day as if NOTHING HAD HAPPENED AT ALL.
|
|
|
|
Needless to say, the stunned hypnotist actively sought the
|
|
instruction of this unusual Indian. Further exploits involved the
|
|
introduction of the hypnotist to an Indian fakir.
|
|
|
|
Discussions with the fakir came to the inevitable point of proof.
|
|
At that time the hypnotist saw the man pick up a flower pot and dash
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
it against the corner of the room where it broke in many pieces.
|
|
|
|
The fakir then told the hypnotist that an illusion could best be
|
|
broken or avoided by anything which focuses concentration. This
|
|
could be a sensation such as pain, or intense concentration on
|
|
something which you know, without doubt to be true.
|
|
|
|
The hypnotist was told to select such a fact at which he chose
|
|
2+2=4. The fakir instructed him to continue to concentrate on that
|
|
fact by repeating it over and over.
|
|
|
|
As the hypnotist carried out these simple instructions, he looked
|
|
over at the corner where the broken flower pot was lying.
|
|
|
|
To his amazement, there was nothing there. On turning to the fakir,
|
|
he saw the flower pot held in the fakir's hand as if it had never
|
|
been thrown.
|
|
|
|
He was confused momentarily which caused him to break concentration,
|
|
As this occurred, the flower pot in the man's hand disappeared and
|
|
reappeared broken in the corner just as it had been "thrown" in the
|
|
beginning.
|
|
|
|
On again focussing his concentration on 2+2=4, the flower pot was
|
|
restored in the fakir's hand.
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Another story involved the witnessing of the rope trick. The man
|
|
observing the event was quite taken up in the unfolding drama when
|
|
he suddenly felt a sharp sting at the base of his neck.
|
|
|
|
When the sting occurred, he slapped at it and again looked toward
|
|
the fakir and his assistant. To his amazement, the fakir and the
|
|
boy were seen to be sitting quite still with the rope at their side.
|
|
|
|
The crowd was collectively looking into the air as if the entire
|
|
drama was continuing.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Much of the above is unverifiable, however, there seems to be some
|
|
basic observations here which do follow the premises of MIND1, MIND2
|
|
and other mind control information. We would be most interested in
|
|
any information you might have on this subject.
