PAUL G. DURBIN’S
TRIBUTE TO ORMOND MCGILL: I first met Ormond McGill in California at the
American Counsel of Hypnotist Examiners Conference in 1988. I was having
breakfast on the morning following a seminar I had presented on “Hypnosis and
Religion”. The great master of hypnosis, Ormond McGill, came to my table and
asked if he could set at the table with me. I was overjoyed. What an honor to
have breakfast with Ormond McGill. He was so very nice to me. We talked about
many things and focused on “past life regression.” I had mentioned in my
presentation that I did not do “past life regression” because it did not fit
into my theology. I did say that I considered Carl Jung’s “Collective
Unconscious” as holding the memory of our ancestors which explained some aspects
of “past life regression”. I also said that I referred clients who wanted to do
a “past life regression” to a therapist who would do that kind of work.
Following the conference, Ormond send me a little booklet about a Private Lee
who had many regressions to past lives. The most impressive regression being
centuries ago. During the regression, he wrote a note which looked like
scribblings. Ormond took the note to a University Language Department and it was
discovered that the writing was Sanskrit. He sent me the book, not to convince
me that I was wrong about my “past life theory”, but just for information. Over
the years, he sent me many books and cassette tapes of his classes. He was
always nice and greeted me as a friend whenever we met at various national
hypnotherapy conferences. He was truly “The Dean of Hypnotism”, a kind and
loving man who has had a positive influence in my life.
Paul, Would you please put the following announcement up with the tributes to
Ormond? Thanks, I really appreciate it. Randal Churchill
At Ormond's request, an Ormond McGill Memorial Fund has been established to
preserve his writings and teachings. Contributions to his memorial fund are

ORMOND MCGILL’S
EMAIL TO SHELLY STOCKWELL-NICHOLAS: (Written in the weeks before his
passing. [used by permission of Shelly Stockwell-Nicholas http://www.hypnosisfederation.com/]):
DEAR SHELLEY: Am mostly working on my recovering health. A slow process, but I
am still on the planet. I hate to think of myself as getting old. Silly: why
waste your energy thinking thoughts you hate to think about. As for YOU getting
old -- it is quite impossible. “Old is a stabilized conjecture for the passage
of time in 3-D space. The YOU that is the “I AM I” belongs to eternity. There is
no time in eternity. We are what we think. To understand that takes maturity.
Don’t ever get the bright idea that because one is old in years they are mature.
For far too many older years just make them more juvenile. “How good the past
was. How lousy the present is. How terrible the future will be.” Who does such a
one think they are; some sort of prophet?
The truth is so obvious; “The past is but a memory which will never happen
again, and the future will never happen at all. There is only the present. The
present is “here and now.” Enjoy. The here and now is the “present.” It is like
Christmas time, MERRY CHRISTMAS.
You are a trinity of body, mind and spirit. Your body is mortal and will
ultimately dissolve in 3-D space. Your body can be likened to an organic
suit-of-clothes you wear. Like any suit-of-clothes it will show signs of wear
through wearing. Your body can learn to look better and wear longer. Mind and
Spirit are immortal. Mind can convey oneself at any age inside the outer shell
at any age it pleases to be. Jack Benny had fun at 39. If you like the 39ers
good. Or possibly you prefer 29. Take your choice. Your spirit just shrugs and
says: “Play the game any way you most enjoy. For the truth is “Nothing need be
done.” Hypnotherapy can transform you from feeling old inside yourself to
feeling young inside yourself.
I will be a bit out-of-touch with things for awhile, so will not be doing
communicating … now I’ve got to get busy finding a new activity of interest.
Wonderful success on your convention coming up and may all your projects do just
fine. You are a busy girl and do a great job training and helping many people
via hypnotherapy. Love To You and Jon, Ormond
ABOUT MYSELF BY ORMOND DALE
McGILL: Excerpted from “McGill’s Hypnotherapy Encyclopedia,” 2004:
(©Printed with permission, Creativity Unlimited Press- (310) 541-4844) [used by
permission of Shelly Stockwell-Nicholas http://www.hypnosisfederation.com/]
I was born in Palo Alto, California on June 15th, 1913 to my other Julia (Ballele)
and Harry McGill. When I was 15, I presented my first full evening magic show at
“Poly” High and recited my Tarbell mail order Magic course patter word-for-word
as though it was a sacred text. That wasn’t what Tarbell would have recommended.
He himself emphasized the importance of being natural and yourself. This is good
advice for Professional Hypnotherapists as well. Develop your own original style
and you will be an outstanding Hypnotherapist.
Hypnotism came into my life while still in high school when the Danish
Hypnotist, DeWaldoza, came to town to perform a “demonstration of suggestion” at
the Masonic Lodge. DeWaldoza invited up two Stanford students as volunteers. One
blindfolded him and the other was told to take an object from his pocket (it was
a comb) and hide it with any person in the audience. The hypnotist, still
blindfolded, used “contact mind-reading” and instructed the student who had
hidden the object to “not lead him but simply concentrate on where the object
was concealed.” Then gripping the student’s hand, he immediately found the comb.
I volunteered to try the procedure and I too succeeded. The process was a result
of “muscle reading” DeWaldoza said.
Next he presented demonstrations in what he called “waking suggestion.” He had
everyone lock their hands together and invited those whose hands were locked
tightly to come up and sit on the stage where they performed a most delightful
“show of suggestion.” I went home and immediately sent in ten cents to Johnson,
Smith & Company for a little book on hypnotism and faithfully followed the
instructions.
After two years of college at San Jose State College majoring in psychology, my
term paper on hypnotism was given in m psychology professor’s upper classes and
I went on the road with Mandu the Magician and took correspondence courses in
commercial art and advertising. I eventually went back to college to study art
and advertising and co-authored the book “Advertising for the Independent
Business Man.”
On September 29, 1943, after going together for 4 years, I married my
sweetheart, Delight Beth Olmstead. We chose the path of the theater business
with hypnotism as an integral part of the performances I presented under the
name Dr. Zomb in theaters in the United States and Canada. I found I had a
liking for sensational publicity stunts and performed many nutty things like
escaping Houdini style, being alive, driving blindfolded or catching bullets in
my teeth.
I appeared on Art Linkletter’s “People are Funny” radio show in 1944 and later
on the television version. I also became the technical advisor for the movie
“The Hypnotic Eye.” You can learn so much from books. I have enjoyed writing
books. In 1944 I wrote “How To Produce Miracles” and in 1947, I wrote the
“Encyclopedia of Genuine Stage Hypnotism” that was published and republished in
5 consequent editions by Percy Abbott and more recently in 7 additions by Crown
House Publishing. In 1953, I did two works on hypnotism “A Better Life Through
Conscious Self-Hypnosis” and “Dental Hypnosis” for Dr. Rexford North’s Journal
of Hypnotism. Thirty-eight other books followed. One week after my wife Delight
passed onwards, she began offering insights as to the nature of death while I
lay in bed. After four days I wrote what was being given to me. In three weeks
“The book of Delight” (published as “Grieve No More Beloved”) was completely
written. I have the pleasure of channeling a spirit guide Patanjali, the Father
of Yoga, who lived in Northern India around 319 B.C. and have learned from his
sutras and processes to use the mind to advance consciousness from normal
perception to super-consciousness. In Patangali’s words, “Yoga is the cessation
of mind. Through yoga the witness is established in itself. In other states
there is identification with the modifications of the mind. You bring your mind
to a stop by not trying to control it in anyway.” The chapters in this
Hypnotherapy Encyclopedia on hypnosis and yoga will help you to master the
master’s ideas.
I am soon to turn ninety-one and I suppose that makes me an old man but honestly
I don’t feel old at all. I don’t feel a bit different inside myself that I did
at thirty-nine. I feel just fine. I can just be myself and it’s great. In this
Hypnotherapy Encyclopedia I have shared things that have been created by me and
things that have come to me as gifts I have treasured. May they have value
practice of hypnotherapy and your life. Ormond McGill
RANDAL CHURCHILL'S SPEECH AT THE ORMOND MCGILL MEMORIAL - NOVEMBER 6, 2005:
All of us here have something in common: our love for Ormond. And I want to
acknowledge the profound bond that Marleen Mulder and Ormond had and have, that
is indescribable. I have been honored by my deep friendship with him. In my very
busy life, I have some very dear friends that I see just a few times a year. For
many years now, I have been blessed to spend quality time with Ormond regularly,
usually at least twice a week. He was and is one of my 3 closest friends. Ormond
accomplished so much in so many ways. He was the most influential stage
hypnotist of all time. He was a great magician whose career spanned 8 decades.
He was accomplished in other fields. Ormond wrote countless books including some
classics about the field of hypnosis, and wrote many more books about magic and
other subjects.
I feel he was at his most profound and inspiring when he taught and demonstrated
hypnotherapy. During his demonstrations and private sessions he could transform
people's lives in minutes. I believe this was his greatest work of all. This
does not in any way lessen his legendary status doing stage hypnosis, or
teaching it or writing about it, or the achievement of his other great writings.
His writings on hypnotherapy were often so innovative and insightful, but you
had to be there to experience the magic of his presence taking it to a whole new
level. And it's his teaching of hypnotherapy that I want to emphasize today. To
be true to his teaching, I'll therefor sometimes be emphasizing his spirituality
as well. As I got to know Ormond more deeply, I could more fully accept the
reality of enlightenment.
We were celebrating his 25th Anniversary of Ormond's being a state-approved
instructor on the faculty of the Hypnotherapy Training Institute when he taught
an exceptional afternoon class for our graduates, four days before he passed on.
We have received a flood of over 200 emails and cards of condolences and
appreciation for Ormond from our graduates around the world in the last two
weeks, and more from colleagues around the world as well. But it's not the
quantity that has so blown us away; it's the quality of the incredibly deep
appreciation for Ormond. Marleen copied most of these messages and has them in a
folder at the front table for any of you who are interested in seeing some of
them. And I know this great appreciation is felt as well by thousands of others
around the world who Ormond has touched.
It's wonderful to have seen so far at least 50 graduates of HTI here today,
among the 150 or so of us present. As current President of the American Council
of Hypnotist Examiners, it's also great to see dozens of ACHE members, many of
whom are our graduates. I wish to acknowledge the tremendous appreciation given
to Ormond for many years by the two largest and most important Hypnotherapist
Organizations, the ACHE and the National Guild of Hypnotists. On the Advisory
Boards of both organizations all along, he has received countless accolades by
both organizations, including for example a Lifetime Achievement Award by the
ACHE in 1988, one of the very few ever given, and the Year of McGill honor by
the National Guild. But I feel all the awards and acknowledgements are dwarfed
by the incredible love and appreciation for Ormond by the members of these
organizations, as exemplified by the thunderous standing ovations he's been
given each year at their annual events.
Ormond began his career in hypnosis giving a stage demonstration in high school
in 1927. That needed some improvement. He did rapidly improve, and by the late
1930's became regarded by many as the greatest stage hypnotist. In those days,
according to various sources, there had been only two kinds of professionals
doing hypnosis in this country: psychiatrists and stage hypnotists. Hypnosis was
just beginning to expand to psychology and other fields, and was beginning to
become a career for some. Two great stage hypnotists he loped lead the way,
growing up with the field as the field grew up with them: Dave Elman and Ormond
McGill. Elman dropped stage hypnosis, while Ormond continued it, but expanded to
begin writing much more broadly about the field in the 1940's.
I credit Gil Boyne for helping bring Ormond out of his retirement and despair
over the death of his beloved wife Delight, by having Ormond teach a seminar in
1979. His promotion of that event highlighted Ormond's legendary status as a
stage hypnotist and author. I was delighted to discover a year later that Ormond
lived in northern California. Marleen and I met with him exactly 25 years ago,
in November 1980, and the three of us enthusiastically prepared for him to teach
hypnotherapy with us at our Institute. I transformed his title of the Dean of
American Stage Hypnotists to the well-deserved title, The Dean of American
Hypnotists, which fit him like a glove. He taught his first class for us in
January 1981, and it was fabulous.
Two of the condolences we received were from students in that first class. One
of them, Barbara LaRue, remembered the hypnosis she experienced from Ormond in
that class. I'll add, it was pretty dramatic. A car crash occurred while Ormond
was giving her suggestions. He walked to the window for a moment and saw that it
was his car that was hit, and came back to continue. We didn't know it was his
car until he excused himself during the break. When we responded to Barbara's
email, we asked if she remembered the crash and brief pause, and she wrote that
she did, far far away, and it didn't faze her wonderful experience of that
hypnosis.
Ormond continued writing books and articles. But aside from a couple of times
Ormond taught for another school in northern California, he was just teaching
hypnotherapists with us. Then his tremendous skills as a hypnotherapy teacher
were discovered big-time in 1987. The ACHE highlighted him at their First Annual
International Hypnotherapy Conference in February. The National Guild created an
Ormond McGill Power Hypnosis Hypnotherapy weekend seminar on November 7-8, which
was followed by several more in 1988. Then the ACHE promoted Ormond McGill
MasterMind weekend seminars, and the Guild promoted him at their Conventions,
and both organizations have continued highlighting him at their annual events.
Soon he was traveling with Marleen to teach hypnotherapists in New Zealand and
Australia, teaching with Chuck in the UK, and has for many years now been widely
appreciated for his teaching hypnotherapy.
Those who have experienced at least a full weekend of Ormond teaching
hypnotherapy, as we have continued to provide in our Level 2 classes and for
hypnotherapists, can fully appreciate what he's had to give. Amazingly, he's
continued to get even better over the years, and has always had much more to
teach in the Level 6 advanced classes of our 300-hour program, and periodically
in some of our other advanced classes as well.
Although Ormond didn't otherwise have a private practice, he did phenomenal
private sessions over the past 25 years, set up by Marleen for participants of
his seminars with the Hypnotherapy Training Institute.
One of the descriptions we give of Ormond in our brochure has changed very
little if at all for over 20 years. "He has combined his profound mastery of
many hypnotic techniques; his deep personal understanding of Eastern systems of
meditation, mysticism, wisdom and healing; and his creativity, vision,
compassion, humor and life experience."
Ormond's body finally gave out at the age of 92, but his mind, heart, creativity
and spirit kept expanding to the end. He was writing prolifically to the end,
and he completed his first novel last year - he was really proud of it too! On
the day he ascended, I wrote, "Ormond gave so much in so many ways to our field
of hypnotherapy. But many of us feel that his greatest gifts to us have gone way
beyond his pearls of wisdom, and were often felt being in his charming presence.
Beyond what he said it was how he delivered it, always with great kindness,
humility, respect, caring, good humor and love. While we can mourn our loss, we
can be grateful he gave of his magical, wonderful life and work so fully as long
as he did."
Ormond periodically had some very serious health issues over the last several
years, but he considered them a private matter, and we all need to respect his
privacy. But without going into any health specifics, I think I can discuss a
related experience. He had just had major surgery, and on one occasion as I
drove down to the hospital in Palo Alto, I had become resigned to stop being in
denial about the fact that he was dying. I thought I was arriving at his
deathbed. Ormond was terribly weak and could barely talk. As we held hands, he
struggled to tell me his work wasn't complete. He still had more to give, more
service to provide. He said he would somehow find a way to make it through. That
was four years ago. My God, he willed himself to life!
A friend just wrote, "I know the most refined part of Ormond's spirit will
continue to live in (us)." He said, "This is not just a platitude; it is easy to
believe if you love Bach, for example." So thank you Ormond for the magic of
being a part of us. And Ormond, you are such a Delight.

OBITUARY: ORMOND DALE
MCGILL 1913-2005: GIL BOYNE AS WRITTEN BY MARLEEN MULDER: The
Legendary Ormond McGill, known world-wide as The Dean of American Hypnotists,
was born in Palo Alto, California on June 15, 1913, where he lived until his
death on October 19, 2005 at the age of 92.
Actively involved in the field of hypnotism since 1927, McGill received
international acclaim for his innovative books, pioneering the integration of
hypnotism, meditation and creative hypnotic strategies. In all, he published
over twenty-five books, several of which are considered classics in the field.
He was honored by numerous organizations, including the American Council of
Hypnotist Examiners, The National Guild of Hypnotists, the Hypnotherapy Training
Institute, and the Society of American Magicians
Ormond McGill was a magician and hypnotist of international acclaim, and toured
many parts of the world with his exciting stage shows. He was one of the first
stage hypnotists to perform on radio and television, including appearances on
the popular Art Linkletter TV show. After the passing of his wife, Delight
Olmstead McGill, in 1976 he continued to tour, presenting his "Concerts of
Hypnotism."
In addition to his work in stage hypnotism, McGill was an active faculty member
of the Hypnotherapy Training Institute in Corte Madera, training hypnotherapists
since 1981. He taught his last class for a group of advanced students just four
days before his passing.
Ormond McGill was also a prominent naturalist and made well-known contributions
in the fields of entomology and conchology. He was a true collector with a great
variety of interests. Of all his contributions, the wealth of his teachings will
stay with us forever. They came out of his profound mastery of many hypnotic
techniques, his deep personal understanding of Eastern systems of meditation,
mysticism, wisdom and healing, and his creativity, vision, compassion, humor and
life experience.
In recent years, Ormond McGill has been able to stay independent, largely
through the loving care of his dear friend and colleague, Marleen Mulder,
Director of the Hypnotherapy Training Institute. He is survived by his four
nephews and their children from the Olmstead family of Palo Alto, as well as by
thousands of grateful students and colleagues and a wonderful circle of friends.
A memorial celebration of Mr. McGill's life was held on Sunday, Nov. 6 3005.
ORMOND MCGILL HYPNOSIS: (THESE
SCRIPTS WERE SENT TO ME SEVERAL YEARS AGO WITH PERMISSION TO PRINT ON MY
WEBSITE): MCGILL INDUCTION ADAPTATION: Have client fix eye gaze on some
object so that eyes are looking upward and suggest: Just relax back in your
chair, let every muscle of your body be completely at rest, and keep your
attention concentrated on that spot, and forget everything else, except the one
desire to relax. Everything is beginning to feel so very comfortable. It just
seems so good to thus, relax and let everything go...
Your whole body seems so warm and comfortable...a pleasant warmth begins to
penetrate every muscle of your body...You are relaxing more and more comfortable
and it feels so pleasant to be in that chair. Everything is so very pleasant,
comfortable, and warm and you are relaxing more and more.
Now as you relax back in your chair, your gaze is getting more and more
concentrated on that spot...And as I talk to you, I may use the word sleep and
you may feel as if you are going into a deep state of sleep, but you always are
able to hear and understand what I say.
Now you continue to look at that stop, your eyes are beginning to become very
heavy and tired...But they won't close yet because you are concentrating so
powerfully upon that stop. But now though, as I count slowly from one to ten,
they begin to close, close your eyelids anytime you wish as I count slowly from
one to ten as the eyelids, become so very heavy. One... Eyes beginning to water,
two... how very heavy and tired your eyes are. How strained they feel. They are
so tired. So very, very tired. Three... Close them now, shutting out the light.
Four... The eyelids are just like lead, so heavy. Close them tight now shutting
out the light, letting them rest. Five... So heavy. Six... Eyes closing right
down tightly together. Close them tight, that's it. Eyes all closed right down
tightly together. Seven... Eyes all closed, shutting out the light. Eyelids
closed tight together. Eight... It feels so good to just close those tired,
tired eyes, and let everything be just quiet and dark. Nine... So comfortable.
Ten... Eyes are closed tight together now, everything so quiet and dark.
Eyes are closed in darkness now. Now go to sleep. Go deep to sleep. Everything
is gently drifting and floating gently by...and you are sinking on down, down,
deep to sleep. Just floating and drifting gently as thought on a cloud, and you
are sinking on down, down, gently to sleep. Go to sleep, go deep deep to sleep.
How tired you are; every muscle in your body just calls for sleep...wonderful,
restful sleep that takes away all tiredness. How tired you are, so tired, so
very, very tired...you need sleep so badly...wonderful, restful sleep. So go to
sleep. Go fast, fast to sleep. You can feel that wonderful rest and relaxation
creeping through your entire body, and you are drifting...drifting...and
floating on down, down to deep, sound. Wonderful sleep. Everything is just
fading, fading, fading far, far away, down into deep, wonderful, peaceful
sleep...
Go deep asleep now. That's it, go deep asleep. Now!...Go sound asleep...You are
breathing deep. You are breathing deep and free. Breath deep and free. As you
breath, you are going deeper and deeper. Every breath you take is sending you on
down deeper and deeper to sleep.
Nothing to bother you, nothing to disturb you...all is so quiet except for the
pleasing music in the background and my voice. Breathe deeply and go deeply to
sleep. Your muscles are all so very relaxed and comfortable. You feel so good as
you relax even more, so very comfortable.
Your jaw is relaxing now. The muscles of your face and jaw are
relaxing completely. You may want to open your mouth a little bit as you relax
more and more...now inhale a very deep slow breath. Hold it. Now exhale slowly,
very, very slowly. How sleepy you are becoming, how very, very sleepy. Go deep,
deep to sleep...All right now, inhale again; inhale deep. Hold it, and now
exhale very slowly. Exhale very, very slowly, go deep, deep, very deep...hold
it, and go to sleep as you exhale so very, very slowly. Go deep, deep, deep
asleep.
As I count from one to five and say deeper and deeper, you can go deeper and
deeper asleep. One, two ,three, four, five...deeper and deeper...sleep deep now.
Wonderful restful sleep is all that matters. Nothing to bother, nothing to
disturb. Every breath you take is sending you down deeper and deeper to sleep.
Though you can hear and respond to every word I say, you go deeper and deeper
asleep...
A warm sensation is coming into your body and you can feel a tingling in your
fingertips. A tingling like the nerves feel when they go to sleep and you are
going deeper and deeper asleep. You may find one or more of your fingers so
light and tingly that they seem to rise, rise, jerking rising upward. Now just
let your fingers relax and rest comfortably on your lap or the arm of the chair
and go deep asleep. As you sleep deeply, your subconscious mind can hear every
word I say and can follow the good and helpful suggestion that I give
you...Sleep deep now and follow my suggestions. (Therapy begins)
MCGILL AWAKENS ADAPTATION: (If client is a patient in hospital, you may
suggest that they drift into natural sleep): You're fast asleep now. It has been
a wonderful, restful, healthy sleep. You feel good about yourself...and when I
awaken you, in just a few moments, you awaken feeling wonderful and well. As I
count from one to five with every count you slowly awaken, and by the time I
reach the count of five, be wide, wide awake and alert. At the count of five you
feel fine and refreshed as if you have had a nice long nap. You awaken feeling
refreshed, wonderful, and well. You may remember to forget or forget to remember
what was said while you had your eyes closed. You may remember as you remember a
dream, but the suggestions have gone into your subconscious mind and they are
beginning to work for you.
Already now. It is almost time to begin thinking about getting up...I am
counting now and on the count of five you are wide awake and alert. One, you are
beginning to wake up...Two, like a dream the custom of sleeping begins to lift.
Sleep is slipping and fading away, and you are beginning to wake up. Three, your
eyes are opening and you are waking up. See the light. Four, wide awake now,
wake up. Five, wide, wide, wide awake, alert, and you feel just fine.
MCGILL FORMULA FOR MASTERING DESIRES: ADAPTATION: "You are becoming the
master of your desires, for you know that your true source of happiness
originates inside yourself. For Jesus said, "The Kingdom of God is within you."
You still have desires, for you are very much alive in the world and are filled
with energy to live life fully. But your desires lead to self-betterment and
benefit you in every way.
You have discovered your inner SELF, and you know that your real source of
happiness comes from inside yourself and from the God within and beyond you.
Knowing where your real happiness comes from gives you perfect mastery over all
desires. You have become the master of your desires.
In having perfect control over your desires you can enjoy whatever you want to
desire. As master of your desires you can enjoy whatever you want to desire. As
master of your desires, happiness flows through you at all times, and you
radiate happiness to others.
You are filled with boundless energy, and your energy makes you complete master
of your desires. Whenever you feel a need for desiring something, you witness it
as a thing apart; and the decision, whether or not to satisfy the desire, is
entirely under your own control. You ask yourself the question, "Will the
satisfying of this desire benefit me." For you are the master of your
desires...and in this way you have achieved a high state of the conscious. You
are master of all your desires. In this awareness of your true nature you
realize that your real happiness emanates from inside yourself and from God. You
know that you have no need to desire anything, as you already have it ALL. And
so you can let desires come and go entirely as you please. For in knowing that
your inner SELF in relationship to God is your real source of happiness, desire
for anything has completely lost control over you. For you are the master of all
desires. You are the master of your SELF.
You have discovered your SELF, and know that your true happiness comes from deep
inside yourself and from God. Knowing this has given your perfect control over
all desires. You have become the master of desires.
And your mastery over desires has give you control over all your habits. You can
enjoy a habit when you want to enjoy it, but you enjoy it because you want to
enjoy it, not because the habit makes you. When you do not want a habit, you
simply let it go. It is easy, for becoming master of desires has given you
absolute control over your habits. So you are now also the master of your
habits.
You know from whence your real source of happiness comes, and so you now have
perfect control of all desires in the world. You appreciate and enjoy life to
the fullest extent in the world, but you know that your real source of happiness
is not to be found in the outside world, but is found within yourself.
It feels so good to be master of your desires. It makes your mind free and
happy. You are the master of all desires.
You know your SELF which dwells in your inner world. You know that you are
complete in every way, and there is nothing you need to desire. YOU HAVE IT ALL
ALREADY!
These suggestions of being master of your desires go directly into your
subconscious mind and become your very own, making you the master of all desires
for your SELF, which is your source of real happiness.
You know your SELF as an individual consciousness. There is no one else
precisely like yourself in the entire universe. You now know your true nature.
You are becoming increasingly conscious of your consciousness with every breath
to take.
You are becoming ever more aware of your true nature with every breath you take.
You recognize yourself as a consciousness dwelling inside your body. You
recognize yourself as consciousness. You recognize yourself a consciousness. And
in this becoming conscious of your consciousness is advancing as you recognize
your true nature as being harmony with the universe.
This advancing of consciousness floods your mind like a bright light, and all
things become clear to you. You begin to experience flashes of your
consciousness coming into you. And these flashes KNOWING the truth about all
this come into you more and more from this time forward. Your consciousness is
advancing.
As your consciousness advances, your mind is freed of the chatter of thoughts
and becomes silent; and the input of KNOWING WHAT IT comes into you. KNOWING
comes into your mind with crystal clarity.
As your consciousness advances, more and more you recognize your immortality.
Your mind is becoming clear like crystal, and you are beginning to think with
crystal clarity. Direct perception of truth of what IS about all things and
about what you think flows into you, as your consciousness advances. Your mind
is beginning to function to perfection.
As your consciousness advances, the reasoning powers of your mind become more
positive and optimistic. Your thoughts are filled with energy and produce energy
that you direct toward their attainment. And you attuned to the God within you
who is also the God beyond you. Your intellect and your ability to think with
crystal clarity and to know instinctively what is truth are advancing in leaps
and bounds. Your mind is becoming boundless. You are advancing in consciousness.
You are advancing in consciousness. You are advancing in consciousness.
You can use the power of reflection now which brings you in glimpses of truth
about the things you reflect upon. This experiencing of truthful reflection
advances more and more your consciousness.
Your mind is becoming silent and you can automatically clear your mind of a
ceaseless barrage of thoughts anytime you please. It is easy for you to do, and
as your mind becomes silent, under your control, you advance more and more
towards attaining a better understanding of yourself, and you are beginning more
and more to KNOW about your true nature. You recognize your true nature, and you
understand about your immortal nature.
As your consciousness advances in consciousness, you are developing faith. Jesus
said, "I am come that you may have more abundantly. You are experiencing the
more abundant life and this is progressive.
And you are developing self-remembrance, and in everything you do, you witness
yourself doing it, and you KNOW you are the one who is doing whatever you do.
Your self-awareness is advancing and is part of your advancing consciousness.
When you walk you know
it is YOU who are walking. When you talk you know it is YOU who are talking.
With everything you do YOU have self-remembrance that YOU are the doer.
And as your consciousness advances you are discriminating in recognizing your
true nature. KNOWING comes into you and you have an awareness of your SELF. As
your conscious advances, your mind concentrates upon whatever you turn your
attention. This quality
of concentration goes hand-in hand with your advancing consciousness. You are
experiencing God's spirit within you for Jesus said, "The Kingdom of God is
within you."
Your consciousness is advancing. Your consciousness is advancing. Your
consciousness is advancing. (Day by day in every way, you are experiencing more
fully the abundant life. Day by day in every way, you are experiencing more
fully the abundant life. Day by day in every way, you are experiencing more
fully the abundant life.)
MCGILL'S FORMULA FOR CONTROLLING MIND: ADAPTATION: You are obtaining
perfect control over your mind. Your control over your mind lifts you up and up
the heights.
You instinctively know that you are not your mind and that you use your mind to
work for you. Your mind is your servant and it works for you. You use your mind
to produce your thoughts, and your thoughts are filled with wisdom in every way.
You are becoming instinctively able to make your mind think what you want it to
think. You have automatic control of your mind and it thinks that you want it to
think.
You are becoming instinctively able to make your mind think when you want it to
think. You have absolute control over your mind, and you can make it think when
you want it to think and to stop thinking when you do not want it to think.
When you use your mind, it is absolutely under your control and the thoughts you
think are orderly and disciplined. You can turn your mind on and off at will.
You are becoming instinctively a witness to your thoughts. You witness the
thoughts as you think them. Your entire sense of perception is that of becoming
a witness of your thoughts.
You are obtaining perfect control over your mind, and this perfect control over
your mind is now your very own. Your subconscious makes the way you use your
mind become your reality.
MCGILL'S FORMULA FOR FUNCTIONS OF MIND: ADAPTATION: Know that your mind
has five main functions: right knowledge, wrong knowledge, imagination, sleep,
and memory. Remember this always. Remember that your mind has five main
functions: right knowledge, wrong knowledge, imagination, sleep, and memory.
Remember always that your mind had five main functions: right knowledge,
imagination, sleep, and memory. Always remembering you use these functions of
mind perfectly for benefiting your life.
You use your mind automatically to always bring in right knowledge for you. You
make the right decisions, you do the right thing; always you turn your mind in
the direction of right
knowledge. Right knowledge is the way you use your mind.
And you turn away from wrong knowledge. You reject your mind's function of wrong
knowledge. Wrong knowledge has no place in your life from this moment on. Your
new functioning in right knowledge vanishes wrong knowledge from your mind
forever. From this time on you function from your center of right knowledge.
And you use your imagination to create wonderful and beautiful things. You use
your imagination to create wonderful and beautiful things. Your imagination is
very powerful, and it creates a wonderful and bountiful life for you. Your
imagination has great power, and you use it to benefit your life in every way.
And you use the power of sleep to benefit you in every way. You sleep soundly
and well, and sleep refreshes you and revitalizes you. Proper amount of sleep is
healthful in every way. Proper amount of sleep is beneficial to you in every
way, and as you sleep, from this time on, the quality of your sleep begins to
change. Each night when you go into deep sleep, your subconscious works out
answers to your problems and concerns. Your body sleeps and benefit from the
sleep, making you well, happy, rested, and happy in every way. Your body sleep
in refreshing sleep, and while your body sleeps, your subconscious continues to
work for your well being. It completely advance your control over your mind. And
you come to use your mind for the superb process it is.
And you use your memory accurately. You remember things and recall things
perfectly. Your memory functions perfectly in every way. Your memory functions
perfectly. Your memory functions perfectly. Your memory is accurate and precise,
and you always have memory of things as they actually are. You are free from all
disturbing memories from out of the past. You are free from all disturbing
memories from out of the past. You are free from all disturbing memories from
out of the past. All past memories have completely lost influence over you, and
you live your life fully in the here and now. You appreciate fully that you are
living in the here and now.
All these five functions of mind are coming completely under your control, and
you can use these five main functions of mind to benefit your life in every way.
The functions of your mind are at your command.
The five functions of mind: right knowledge always is yours; wrong knowledge you
automatically reject and allow it to have no place in your life; your
imagination is creative, and create wonderful and beautiful things. Your sleep
brings you perfect rest and well-being; and while your body sleeps your
subconscious mind continues to work to your benefit. And your memory functions
perfectly, and you use your memories to help you to live life fully in the here
and now.
All those suggestions go deep into your subconscious and become your reality;
they become your way of life. The power over all your five main functions of
mind is your very own! (Repeat this "suggestion formula to your client two times
in succession, ending with...) And now have perfect control over using correctly
the five main functions of your mind; they cause you to use your mind correctly,
and will benefit you in every way.
