In my early experiments I learned that children demonstrate psychic ability more readily than adults do. They are far less limited by Beta’s view of what is possible, and their sense of reality has not developed to the point where they will say only those things that seem logical. One experiment, just after the basics of the Mind Control course were developed, was designed to work out the structure of the case-working sessions I have described. As you will see, my earlier technique was quite different from what it is today. Two children, Jimmy and Timmy, had been trained in the basics. I separated them, putting each in a different room, each with an experimenter, a sort of forerunner of today’s psychorientologist. One child, Jimmy, was asked to go to his level and create something, anything, in his imagination. Meanwhile Timmy, in the other room, went to his level and was asked to find out what Jimmy was up to. Jimmy said to his experimenter, “I’m making a little truck. It has a green body and red wheels.” Timmy’s experimenter asked, “What is Jimmy doing now?” “Oh, he’s making a little toy truck.” “Well, describe it.” “Oh, it has a green body and red wheels.” This is case work at a more subtle level than we conduct with adults in our classes. It takes practice to “become as little children.” -- José Silva
