He can't, but he can do a lot of damage trying.

"LSC, How can I help you?"
"Yes, I'd like to return my speedreading program."
"I'm sorry to hear that, were you unsuccessful with it?"
"It wasn't that...I'm returning it because it's the work of the devil."
"Excuse me?"
"Yes, the devil is in my speedreading program."
"Um...what aspect of the program?"
"Well, not in the dictionary or the Natural Brilliance book, but everything else."
"I see..."

Note, if you PR at 25,000 wpm, be careful: the devil may be making you do it.

I'm presenting the Bible truth as it is without the hysteria. All my verses come from the King James Version.

God has already laid out the heart of believers to incline towards learning.
Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.
10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. (Proverbs 9:9 and 10)

To stay in the love of God's word and the spirit of learning is not a sin if it is directed towards worshipping God.

From this offering, God will choose the gifts He deems pure, and will correct the errors of His faithful.
Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults. Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression. Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. (Psalm 19:12 to 14)

As long as you give God glory in whatever you do, He will direct and guide all of your paths and you will not be deceived.
Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation. I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.(Psalm 119:98 to 100)

Satan is nothing but a liar. But before Satan even invented his lie, God already exposed it and laid out the truth in your Bible. If you follow God and God leads you, the enemies' lies will never corrupt you because as the Bible clearly tells us,
...if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. (1 John 1:7)

The Bible clearly tells us to learn to study and exercise the ability God has given us and not to become lazy and rely on the welfare handouts of nonbelievers:
study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.
(1 Thessalonians 4:11 and 12)

In the course of such study, we will become educated to learn to discern the true words from false ones. We will then with the help of God's spirit be able to tell when we are being lied to, and not have to resort to superstitious ignorance to keep the human heart 'pure' towards God. God doesn't raise dummies; He teaches us and wants us to learn.
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness (2 Timothy 2:15)

Photoreading is concerned with the science of human thinking and studying, and is religiously neutral. If you choose to step outside of Bible teaching and follow eastern religions, then that is on you. Don't blame Photoreading for your own choices. Be mature and take responsibility for your own actions. To equate ignorance with godliness and individual learning with satanism is wrong! And to tell others what to learn and how to learn it is a sneaky and insidious way of trying to control their morality, which should and can only be controlled by God.

Just a note. Eastern religions are not actual religions in the sense you and I know them. They are just brainwave patterns. The "east" is a state of mind. Zen and Taoism have no gods or supernatural forces or magic or even notions of good and evil. It's just a state of mind. There are no words or doctrine. It's a way of being, solely. An experience of life as it happens, nothing more.

A "24/7 Flow State"


I am of the opinion--and this is just my opinion, so please feel free to disagree 110%--that the Jesus phenomenon can be recreated, modelled. (perhaps I shouldn't say this?) I do believe that it is within every person's capability to become a Jesus or Buddha. That there is nothing inherently exclusive to ultra-holymen.

The experience is open to us all if we just press the right buttons--if conditions are right. A manipulation of the most subtle aspects of our physiology. If we subtract all the words that the great holymen have spoken, you know, just "delete" all that culture-specific stuff, all the noise... and ask the question, "how do holymen physiologically differ from normal men and how can we model this?" ..well, that's just the question of a lifetime!

I don't mean to offend anyone with supposing that Jesus can be modelled in the same way that a star athlete can be modelled, but... well... that is what *I* believe.

I'm not one for worshiping Gods, Christian or otherwise, rather, I say... emulate them.

Today I was in the middle of photofocus, and all of a sudden Satan cackled at me through the blip page.

Then my mindmap looked like a pentagram.

I swear, TruthSpeaker is right! IF you say Bloody Mary 3 times while using the tangerine technique, she'll appear and you'll experience the accelerated learning state.

By Jesus, do you mean Christ, Brian? Yes, anyone can become a Buddha. That is, everyone can realize their Buddha nature. It's just another word for awakening. Have you had any more Kundalini experiences lately? Have you figure out how to induce them yet?
