Part of the problem in communications is using an undefined term. Groups of people start using a term thinking that everybody else understands what they mean. This causes miscommunications and confusion. For example, there is a term now being bandied about and used in all kinds of contexts, with all kinds of meanings being attached to it. Everybody is assuming that everybody else understands what is meant. But just what do I mean when I talk about "mind control." Let alone the term "mind control victims"? Early on I realized that different people meant different things, because there appeared to be different types of mind control victims. I resolved this for myself by calling the people I was talking about by the term "targeted individuals" or "TIs." This exactly means people who are targeted by specific government/private groups utilizing very sophisticated/advanced electronic technology coupled with advances in physiological/psychological triggering.
I think it is important to define the over all term "mind control" because this term could provide one of the most important underlying concepts of how the targeting of individuals (TIs) works. Why the electronic harassment/field testing of sophisticated technology along with "prescribed-acted-out-street scenarios" directed by government/private corporate operatives works. (The technology was covered in detail in my previous Paranoia magazine article.) I see this term — "TI" — becoming an icon meaning an externally oppressed/controlled/ manipulated state of mind. Therefore, for the purposes of understanding of the term, we need to go back in time to examine the history of mind manipulation, and see whether this term should be or can be applied to targeted individuals (TIs) of electronic harassment. In other words, is this term applicable to situations/events/ experiences where individuals are claiming external control over aspects of their immediate/personal environment?
To really understand, it is necessary to take a brief look at the Greek mystery schools where we find that methods to manipulate an individual's belief system were already in place. There are written accounts of the ancient practices by the Greek mystagogues. One of the more primitive methods involved sound and the flickering light from flames of a fire. There is evidence that caves were places where transformations/spiritual re-birth/change of the mind happened. Therefore, even in those ancient times, it was well known that one of the ways to manipulate a human's mind it was to put them into a dark, isolated and very quiet place. If the priest/shaman wanted to cause a very drastic, long lasting effect, the initiate was kept in the cave for many days without food or water. Drugs were administered before the initiate entered the "dark place." While in the cave, a very deliberate shocking event was created by the priest/shaman in charge; it had to be sudden and abrupt. The event needed to be scary and target an individual's private fears. After the initial indoctrination was complete, there would be periodic rituals/ structured meetings in the community as a whole to reinforce the conversion of the individual. We know the exact method used on the initiates from accounts of Greeks who took part in Eleusinian Mysteries. It went like this: an initiate would spend a couple of days in the temple, talking with the priests, before entering the cave of the oracle. We read in William Sargant's "Battle for the Mind" - quoting from Robert Graves' chapter(1)
On admittance into the temple, he was stripped of all his garments, and presently appeared before a judge, who sentenced him to die. Execution having been formally carried out, a mystagogue led him down a slope into a dark grotto representing the Underworld, where he heard the cries of the damned and met horrible phantoms, including wild beasts, serpents, and lecherous Empusae. Unseen hands daubed him with filth, and he could not escape because Furies with brazen whips threatened him from behind. Presently he was instructed to bathe in a pool and wash himself clean, before approaching another tribunal.
It didn't end there:
Being sentenced to chastisement, he was struck on the head, caught by the hair, thrown down, and beaten soundly by demons; but dared not defend himself. When he seemed sufficiently humbled in spirit, the mystagogue moralized on these sufferings and gave him a draught of Lethe water to make him forget the past. Next, apparently, he entered a magical circle and went tediously round and round, until he managed to escape - but only by a ritual of rebirth from the Goddess herself - and was given a new name.
The initiate suffered the emotional effects of this treatment, as the symptoms were noted as "shuddering, trembling, sweating, mental confusion, distress, consternation, and joy mixed with alarm and agitation."(1)
During an initiate's time with the temple priests, they learned to trust and confess their secret fears/guilt to the priests. These secret fears and guilt would be the stuff of the mystagogue's moralizing. Just before being taken to the cave, the unwitting initiate was given "Lethe water" to make them forget. For example, slow dosing of drugs took place while the initiate was staying at the temple lodge. After that, the initiate was helped to the entrance to the cave, whereupon their feet were grabbed. They were pulled into the darkness from bright sunlight and maybe, if necessary, batted on the head until unconscious. When the initiate woke, they were in a very dark, quiet place and immediately began to hallucinate. There are ancient accounts of some of these acid trips. One of the fathers of modern LSD tripping, Dr. John Lilly ("The Center of the Cyclone"), admits to reading ancient accounts of "waking dreams" to apprise himself of the effects of hallucinogens. Change the title of priest to shaman; add a "magic drug" made from the bark of a plant that contains an alkaloid like harmine (grown close to Brazil's Amazonian frontier with Colombia) take the initiate into a cave in the Amazon juggle or a specially built cave-like hut. It had the same effect as the initiation in the Greek mystery school of the Eastern Hemisphere. The point I am making is that a human's physiology and how to manipulate it has been known for thousands of years; it was discovered very early in man's incarnation on the planet Earth. We don't know exactly what took place in the ancient Amazonian juggle, or in the primeval cave underneath the Sun Pyramid at Teotihuacan, Mexico. But the archaeological evidence from all around the world points to rituals as described above.
Add to the above facts, Hippocrates in 5th century BC knew that consciousness was centered in the brain. However, for 1500 years after him, doctors thought that the brain cavities were where all thought/sensation happened, i.e., sensus communis was the place where sensations originated, the virtus cogitativa was the place where thinking originated, and so on, through the so-called five brain cavities. Even in the 1600s doctors still thought that the grey matter in the brain was site of localized functions. By the 1800s doctors realized the brain was a combination of localized functions and a holistic entity. As early as 1901/1903, neurosurgeons began systemically mapping the brain. Electrical stimulation would be applied to conscious patients undergoing brain surgery and notations made as to what automatic system response would take place. We read in Wilder Penfield's papers "Somatic Motor and Sensory Representation in the Cerebral Cortex of Man as Studies by Electrical Stimulation"(2):
It was the work of Grunbaum and Sherrington (1901, 1903) which, according to Dusser de Barenne (1935), caused the change of opinion from the idea of sensorimotor cortex to the conception of a pre-Rolandic motor cortex separate from the sensory region. They worked with a unipolar electrode using weak currents to avoid seizures. The animals, however, were under general anesthesia.
Very early in this century pain pathways were being traced by subcortical (just below the outer layer of the brain cortex) mapping. During electrical stimulation, it was noticed that stimulating the limbic system (the part of the brain where the automatic functions and certain aspects of emotion and behavior are controlled) would create hallucinations. The important thing to remember is that these experiments were taking place in the early 1900s. There are journal articles from this period discussing that electrodes would become important in probing the brain and disclosing "the mystery of the mind." To unravel this mystery, between 1901 and 1903, Drs. Grunbaum and Sherrington induced responses in the "ear, nostril, palate, lips, jaws, vocal cords, chest and abdominal wall, pelvic floor, anal and vaginal orifice as well as the extremities."(2) They got reactions when they applied electrical current in and around the central fissure in the Rolando (located midway in the cerebrum) of the brain. (If you are a TI reading this account, I imagine you can directly relate to the fact that somebody knows exactly how make the limbic system to respond.)
Before there was MKULTRA, there were Drs. Mahl, Rothenberg, Delgado (Jose Delgado of the "remote-control-chip-implanted-in-charging-bull" fame) and Hamlin at Yale University in 1962 doing electrical stimulation to the intracerebral. Two multilead needle electrodes (made of polyethylene about 12cm long and 0.5mm in diameter) were implanted in a patient. Then the patient was interviewed while electrical stimulation was being applied. In their paper, "Psychological Responses in the Human to Intracerebral Electrical Stimulation" (published in 1962), they discuss the patient hallucinating whenever there was "conflicting mental content - ideas, wishes", etc. that were activated prior to electrical stimulation. That is, according to the doctors, "the conscious and unconscious mental content present at the time of stimulation may be manifested in hallucinatory experiences." This research means that it was known that certain types of electrical stimulation could create hallucinations. It also means that a human could be controlled externally, unwittingly. The role of hypnosis and triggering/reframing will be discussed later in this article.
In 1978, electrical stimulation of the brain was used in experiments to evoke all kinds of simple and complex sensations, emotions. Once again, it was discovered by other researchers that hallucinations could be created by electrical stimulation. Some of this type of research into hallucinations through electrical stimulation was being done at the University of California-Los Angeles in the Reed Neurological Research Center, the Brain Research Institute and the Department of Surgery. These researchers based their experiments, according to their paper "Mental Phenomena Evoked by Electrical Stimulation of the Human Hippocampal Formation and Amylgada", on the earlier research of Wilder Penfield, M.D. (1954). Dr. Penfield's work from 1954 forms the basis of modern understanding of electrical stimulation and observed responses. You will remember that the University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA) was one the institutions funded by the CIA to conduct several projects under the project name MKULTRA. As a matter of fact, at the time the above named paper was being published by the Brain Research Institute, Reed Neurological Research Center and UCLA's Department of Surgery, Congress was conducting hearings into MKULTRA.
Perhaps at the same time UCLA was doing their research, in 1975, at Tulane University School of Medicine, Drs. Heath, John and Fontana were doing stereotaxic (specific and precise placement) implantation of electrodes in human subjects(3). The implants were stainless steel or silver ball electrodes. Patients within the Department of Psychiatry and Neurology had been implanted starting in 1949. The problem the doctors complained about was that the silver-ball electrode had "a slight tendency to attenuate faster frequencies" and "meaningful changes are not filtered out." But they had narrowed down the most effective pulse rate for brain stimulation to 0.2 to 0.25 (this is a very, very low rate). Tulane was another of the institutions receiving monies under MKULTRA in one of the subprojects starting in the 60s.
However, before the experiments at Tulane, in late 1940s, as I related to you in the previous Paranoia magazine article, Bell Laboratories was sponsoring Andrija Puharich's experiment with remote telemetry. Dr. Puharich had implanted two inpatients at Bellevue with bioreceivers/biochips. My guess as to why Dr. Puharich utilized Bellevue Mental Hospital patients? If the patients began to report hearing voices in their head, everyone around them, except Dr. Puharich, would attribute the phenomena to the fact that these people were diagnosed as mentally disturbed. This must have been the first time government funded doctors used "well, what do you expect they're crazy" cover story. None of Puharich's early research ever appeared in any academic journal. My source is an on-line publication by Terry Milner(4) who based his investigative report on Andrija Puharich's private papers.
The fact that no researcher identifies the source of their funding means that we will never know for sure which of the above cited protocols were funded by the CIA, or by other agencies or private corporations. If the researchers did reveal the source, it would have been in their private papers. If, after the death, the researcher left those papers to their institution you can be sure that by now the information would be buried - if it hasn't already been burned.
However, we do know from Gordon Thomas' non-fiction book, "Journey Into Madness"(5), that during the 1950s, Dr. Ewen Cameron, head of the psychiatric program at Allan Memorial Mental Hospital in Montreal and chief psychiatrist at McGill University, was experimenting with a technique he called "psychic driving." Quoting from Carla Emery's book(6):
A severe series of electroconvulsive shocks will cause retrograde amnesia: an inability to remember not only the time of shocking, but also a period of time preceding the shocking.
Dorland's Illustrated Medical Dictionary defines "electroshock" as:
Shock produced by application of electric current to the brain.
Electroshock, according to Dr. Cameron's protocol would do the following(6):
First Stage: In the First Stage of electroshock amnesia, the subject loses much of her recent memory, "yet she still knew where she was, why she was there, and who the people were who treated her." (J. Marks, p. 135). That is called keeping your "space-time image." The subject knows where she is, why she is there, and recognizes familiar faces. Names are harder. Second Stage: In the Second Electroshock Amnesia Stage, the subject loses that space-time image and is aware of the loss. That awareness causes extreme anxiety. The subject wants to remember. At his stage the subject asks repeatedly, 'Where am I?', 'How did I get here?', 'What am I here for?' Third Stage: In this final stage, the subject becomes bizarrely calm. All the previous anxiety is gone. At this point the patient was moved back to their room where a speakerphone had been placed under their pillow, a tape recorder with a continuous loop played repeating the same command over and over again. While in this state, patients showed incontinence of both urine and feces.
Allan Dulles, of the United States' CIA, found out about Dr. Cameron's work and decided to fund it as part of the CIA's program to create a better spy.
Dr. Cameron never published exactly how his method worked. The only way we know the details of Dr. Cameron's experiments is from direct knowledge of one of his victims - Dr. Mary Matilda Morrow(5). Dr. Morrow had been practicing part-time at the Montreal Neurological Institute before she came to work for Dr. Cameron. She was hoping that a position with Dr. Cameron would further her career. She wanted to become the first woman chief of neurology. However, when she objected to the amount of electro-convulsive treatment (ECT) given to Dr. Cameron's patients, Dr. Morrow found herself joining the other patients in the "sleep room" - as the ECT treatment room was called by both patients and staff. Because Dr. Morrow might have divulged what was taking place at Allan Memorial, for all practical purposes, it looks like Dr. Cameron made sure that Dr. Morrow would never talk. Another of Dr. Cameron's patients (unnamed in Thomas' book), involved in his "sleep room" projects, escaped Allan Memorial, and was interviewed by Thomas. Her testimony is published in his book. Therefore, we have the word of two people who underwent Dr. Cameron's methods. In 1997, the U.S. CIA was sued by a number of Dr. Cameron's ex-patients. The Canadian court found in favor of these patients who endured Dr. Cameron's tortures in the name of creating a more efficient Manchurian Candidate for the CIA championed by Allen Dulles - the mind behind the MKUltra projects.
But, where did Dr. Ewen Cameron get the idea for his prescription of large doses of drugs, repeated courses of electroshock treatment, i.e., "psychic driving"?
For that information, we must go back to Dr. I.P. Pavlov's physiological studies with dogs in 1911. Pavlov realized that dogs and humans share similar physiological traits. Pavlov's "Lectures on Conditional Reflexes: the Higher Nervous Activity (Behavior) of Animals" was translated and published in English in 1928. When I first read specific chapters in college, I was disturbed at how easy it was to control another human. For example, William Sargant states the following(1):
One of Pavlov's most important findings was exactly what happens to conditioned behavior patterns when the brain of a dog is "transmarginally" stimulate by stresses and conflict beyond its capacity for habitual response. He could bring about what he called a "rupture in higher nervous activity" by employing four main types of imposed stress. The first was, simply an increased intensity of the signal to which the dog was conditioned; thus he would gradually increase the voltage of the electric current applied to its leg as a food signal. When the electric shock became a little too strong for its system, the dog began to break down.
But, Pavlov didn't stop there(1):
A second powerful way of achieving the same result was to increase the time between the giving of the signal and the arrival of food. A hungry dog might be conditioned to receive food, say, five seconds after the warning signal. Pavlov would then greatly prolong the period between the signal and the giving of food. Signs of unrest and abnormal behavior might become immediately evident in the less stable of his dogs. He found, in fact, that the dogs' brains revolted against any abnormal prolongation of waiting under stress; breakdown occurred when a dog had to exert very strong or very protracted inhibition.
If Pavlov would have conducted his experiments today, one wonders whether animal rights advocates might have stormed his laboratory - just as animal rights advocates storm the Animal Labs here at UCLA. You would have thought Pavlov would have stopped at starving his dogs, but he forged onward:
Pavlov's third way of producing a breakdown was to confuse them by anomalies in the conditioning signals given-continued positive and negative signals being given one after the other. The hungry dog became uncertain what would happen next, and how to face these confused circumstances. This could disrupt its normal nervous stability-just as happens with human beings.
A fourth way of producing a breakdown was to tamper with a dog's physical condition by subjecting it to long periods of work, gastro-intestinal disorders, fevers, or by disturbing its glandular balance. Though the three other means listed above had failed to produce a breakdown in a particular dog, this might be engineered later by using the same sort of stresses immediately after the removal of its sexual glands, or during an intestinal disorder.
It should be noted that Pavlov never anesthetized his animals. He wanted to watch "raw" reactions without the softening effect of a drugged response.
It was understood, even in 1954, that Pavlov's theories were being used in Russia to extract confessions from capture prisoners during World War II, and later on dissident Soviet citizens/political thinkers. The remarkable aspect of animal/human behavior that Pavlov was able to determine were the categories of physiology, and the necessary steps to modify behavior in each category; the events that were needed to break down resistance to a modification program.
One of the most productive ways, Pavlov discovered, was to cause a breakdown of "normal" patterns of behavior by continuously disrupting a dog's environment; create stress/tension in the dog's physiological make-up by "surprises"/odd occurrences/out-of-ordinary events. Replace the word "dog" with the word "human", and the same emotional/physiological environment can be created.
For example, disrupting a sleeping pattern by waking the dog (human target) at non-regular intervals over a period of days or weeks. This gets the dog's (human target's) attention. Creates what psychologists call abreaction/break down in the human target; i.e., wears down their resistance to change. After repeated emotional upheavals, the human target becomes sensitive to the controller; transference takes place. In other words, the human target begins to "see the light." The best subjects for behavioral changes? It is not the psychotic or the insane. No, it is individuals that are the considered normal by society. As a matter of fact, it is much easier to convert a normal human with societally acceptable behavior patterns. To quote from William Sargant(1):
(T)he normal extravert, for instance, seems to be 'got at' more easily, and his new patterns maintained, by quite crude and non-specific group excitatory methods, provided that they result in strong, continued and often repeated emotional arousal. Therefore, if these underlying physiological principles are once understood, it should be possible to get at the same person, converting and maintaining him in his new belief by a whole variety of imposed stresses that end by altering his brain function in a similar way.
The most important principle discovered by scientists was that by forcing an alteration in behavior there was a forced changed in brain patterns. It was not necessary to use drugs.
If you take nothing else away from this article, please remember the important point is that it is normal people are the most susceptible to changes in their environment acting upon the physiology of the human. After all, if your own voices are so noisy and distracting, you will never the external voices of a controller.
Also, according to Carla Emery(6):
Greater susceptibility is associated with higher intelligence and better adaptation to deprivation, to be suggestible is to be able to learn easily. Being able to learn quickly helps in survival. Humans have a built-in tendency to conform to any situation in which they are placed.
The above quote leads me to the next component utilized on TIs: hypnosis with subtle triggers. The fact that TIs are quite probably conditioned by techniques aimed first at their physiology, then further, inducted remotely by hypnosis, and if necessary some type of "street theatre" is staged to reinforce new programming. This would be a very efficient way to keep the target under control without being on the scene at all times, i.e., keep the cost of field testing down and within previous agreed upon budgets.
Most people will say that they know they cannot be hypnotized - this is said empathically. Or, if they admit to it, state that they wouldn't do anything against their moral principles. If the individual claims they cannot be hypnotized, they could be in denial of their actual susceptibility. Subjects can be and are hypnotized against their will according to William Sargant ("The Mind Possessed"). "What?", you are saying to yourself, "that is just not possible." I am here to tell you that "yes" it is. The more emphatically an individual proclaims no one can hypnotize them, there is greater the probably they are "sealed." Sealed means exactly that a master hypnotist inserted a command in the target's subconscious stating something to the affect that no else's hypnotic commands will be effective or break past the superficial subconscious level. This command could have happened accidentally or deliberately. As to whether someone can be made to go against his or her internal moral commands? All the controller needs to do is to rephrase the command in a way that is supported by the internal morals/ethics of the target. Further, first time hypnotic induction can take place while asleep, and reinforcement can take place each and every time the target goes to sleep. Once the target is inducted, the controller has total control over the target.
In the next section of this series of articles, we will cover exactly a hypnotherapist can counteract an individual's ethical/moral to program them to do whatever the controller wishes by discussing the modern technique the Russians called "the word."
