D4 Discovering the Power of Belief over Behaviour

Is                4  Invitation to D4

                Satan is the great enemy of God, and it is his constant aim to lead souls away from their allegiance to the King of Heaven. He would have minds so trained that men and women will exert their influence on the side of error and moral corruption, instead of using their talents in the service of God, to save souls and bless society. His object is effectually gained, when, by perverting their ideas of education, he succeeds in enlisting parents and teachers on his side; for a wrong education often starts the mind on the road to infidelity.  {ST, March 20, 1884 par. 2} (He is in the business of mind control. Each one of us is engaged constantly in the battle of our mind with him. It is only by steadfast faith in Christ that we can overcome his guiles and temptations.)

                The conclusions which learned men have reached as the result of their scientific investigations are carefully taught and fully explained; while the impression is distinctly given that if these learned men are correct, the Bible cannot be. These philosophers would make us believe that man, the crowning work of creation, came by slow degrees from the savage state, and that farther back, he was evolved from the race of brutes (Darwinism). They are so intent upon excluding God from the sovereignty of the universe, that they demean man, and defraud him of the dignity of his origin. Nature is exalted above the God of nature; she is idolized, while her Creator is buried up and concealed from sight by science falsely so-called.  {ST, March 20, 1884 par. 3} 

                Following on the heel of discovering that the mastermind of Darwinism is Satan, our next discovery Journey, is to take up the opportunity in travelling with the Dr. Lipton into the living cell and learn what he has recently discovered that our beliefs affect our body which is contrary to conventional wisdom that we are controlled by our genes.

                This is a knowledge trip because true knowledge is power over the lies that our behaviors are dictated mainly by our genes. We will be free from another lies of Satan in  now having the scientific vindication that it is our beliefs that control our perception, bevaviour and genes.

                Discovery D4 Overview

                1. The human body is made up of 50-75 trillion cells.  Each cell is a complete system as in the human system. The brain of the cell is in the proteins as discovered by Dr Bruce Lipton who illustrates that genes do not control biology. It was a mistaken assumption never proven scientifically (like Darwin’s theory of evolution). A human cell is a machine made up of protein parts, like the human body that operates with organs. There are 70,000- 90,000 proteins in the cell and they are assembled to interact with each other to create the complex thing we call life.  Proteins provide physical structure. But it can change shape when a signal binds to that protein. Activity is controlled by the signal. Behaviour is the movement, the action that expresses life.  Protein plus signal equals behaviour.

                2. We adjust our genes to fit the environment that we think we live in (perceive, rightly or wrongly). Perception is belief that changes your genes –our perception that changes our genes is not just an accident.  Life is response to the environment.  Our behaviour is not due to the genes but how we see the signal which is called perception and then converts that signal into selecting the right proteins for our responses (No genes is involved). The biochemical truth is Genes do not turn itself on or off.  When a gene product is needed, a signal from the environment activates expression of the genes. Genes are always selected in response to the environment. It is your life style, the way you decided to live that promoted activation of the genes sitting dormant (say  for 35 yrs. of our life). So the focus is on the signal not on the genes. (In human behaviour, the most promoting signal is love. It exceeds nutrition. A child getting love will grow.) There is a lot of control in your life but it is mediated in your life by the perception of your environment  that is controlling all things. Thus we are not a victim of our heredity, because by adjusting our perception we can adjust our behaviour. Lots of illnesses like cancer are not hereditary (95% not due to heritage but mainly by perception.) Our perception sees the environment and interprets it to form the basis of our belief that affects the cell response.

                3. Belief acts as a filter between the real environment and our biology. Belief filters can cause fear if they are not accurate in selecting genes inappropriate for our environment.  Keeping in balance is keeping perception clear.  The filter is between the environment and the things we have learned. Genes in cell are similar as a program in a disk in a computer. There are two classes of programs, one for survival- growth and reproduction; the other for protection. Life have everything in it but you only see what you have perception filters to see. You were taught perception filters from interactions with parents and schools on how to see life. Wrong filters can be removed that interferes.  It won’t take long, just minutes as Robert Williams has devised the possible tool to rapidly change the belief to select healthier growth satisfying genes.

                4. We are all powerful, the knowledge factor we have  is power over the unfoldment of our life, power over which gene to be activated to express who we are, which behaviour to express  and not be a victim of genes. The beliefs we have select the genes. If the genes is not appropriate as manifested in our behaviour and our health we can change these beliefs. Having the belief that is true is therefore supremely vital. The power of belief has profound effects on our behaviour and genetic expression. Research in the field of Behavioural Epigenetics provides insight into how we can become empowered, and rise to the level of being master of our lives. This is imanifested in the two real life cases, one with the wrong belief and the other with the right belief.  Angelina Jolie's recent public disclosure of her double mastectomy raises concern about the methods through which we choose to heal. The other case is that of Anita Moorjani who is healed from cancer by reversing her wrong belief with the right belief.

                5. Our belief determines our biological and behavioural reality.  Beliefs are filters of reality.  We live in fear and confusion when our two minds are not in harmony leading mind to seek for protection and the soul is hurting. Belief creates perception that affects our self- esteem; relationships, prosperity; job performance; mental health, physical health; spiritual outlook. We look forward to joy and growth in maturity or otherwise scream in the protection mode and stop growing. The problem is  parental induced/ societal reinforced childhood programming (habits set by 5 year old) of perception and behaviour conclusion that translates into – adult experiences.  Habits are self-reinforcing cycles of beliefs and perception. Breaking the cycle, like self-deprecating behaviour, requires- rewriting the software of our mind to change the printout of our experience (E.g. changing environment). Tools given in the past 35 years such as positive thinking, affirmation, will-power, worked maybe 20% of the time.  Williams show one psychic change process he developed to give an idea how quickly a belief can be changed and can be verified as it changes. The problem is we are talking to the wrong mind that is in charge of habits.

                6. The mind influences biology, but we have two minds, Conscious mind (CM) and Sub-Conscious Mind (SM) (It is difficult to change our mind, a mind of its own.  It wants to do good but can’t because it is not approached.)  The CM has limited processing capacity of one to three events, averaging at 2000 bits per sec. SM has an expanded processing capacity handling thousands of events (including all motor functions),  averaging at 4 billion bits sec. It is easier to change thoughts and behaviour if we access the SM, because because it is the storehouse for attitudes, values and beliefs. Affirming what we belief is the role of the CM. Thus affirmation is ineffective if not communicated to SM. CM is the creative mind that is connected to our personal identity and our spiritual selves that makes us all unique. It is the SM that is equivalent to a tape player. It records experiences and then plays them back. The SM is the equivalent of a computer that is a million times more powerful information processor than the CM. On a day by day basis, the SM runs about 95 -99 percent of the time. It is not evil or good. But the program can be good or bad. The source of the problem that we face is that they limit our abilities and take away our powers of the thought as suggested but cannot do.

                7. Positive thinking is a creative thought of our CM. This is competing with the subconscious mind. However CM only operates 5 percent of the day (as 95 percent of the day the other operation system is operating.  It is pitting positive thought of having good health and good relationship against a program that say we are not healthy and not a good person to have those relationship. So the more power processor will win.  So unless the sub conscious has the same program in agreement the power of positive thinking does not work. 

                8. To understand is to change our sub conscious programming and change our life. The program cannot be changed by talking. We need to learn to push the record button and then we can record the new program. The old belief system in conventional psychology (going through all the psychological counselling and all the reasoning and still have the same life) inclusive of positive thinking does not work. Learn how to engage the player in the record mode, not just talking.

                9. We are victims of biological entities that biology operates according to Newtonian principles (the material reality and does not believe in Quantum Physics), that Genes control lives. Control is an action. Gene is a blueprint. Conventional wisdom falsely give genes self actualisation. It is whether the blueprint is being read by the mind. The mind can change the read out. The mind through epigenetic mechanisms can start with one gene and create over 30,000 different versions of product from the same blueprint (infinite variation of expression of the genes). We modify the read out. Our mind can cause cancer and other diseases. Defective genes can be rewritten.

                4.1 The Biology of Perception 

                Watchhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzAGSJbZidQ  (1:08:28) – “How our Beliefs affects our Body and Biology” by Dr. Bruce H. Lipton, published on Sep 21, 2014.

                Dr. Lipton is providing (in the video) the latest research Information on what controls biology. He is a cellular biologist, University of Wisconsin cloning human muscle cells (a stem cell pioneer). He studies individual cell on a petri dish in an effort to understand what is controlling their fate, what is dystrophic and pathological, and what is making them normal. His research reveals the breakdown of the scientific foundation that we are controlled by genes. Instead He finds that it is the perception of the environment that controls the cell. At the cell levels perceptions are perceptions, but at the human levels perceptions are beliefs. It is actually our beliefs that select our genes and select our behaviours. This finding is life changing and tends to align with the word of God that says “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”-Jn 5:24.  This is no   new age spiritual science of belief. There is scientific basis for molecular control that switches on a gene. Couple with this good news is the knowledge that you can quickly change belief almost in minutes according to Rob Williams which we will also review in this journey. But diligent students of the Bible know that belief in the word of God is the sure way of transformation into the divine nature of Christ.

                4.1.1 Conventional Wisdom on Genes Invalidated

                The conventional belief system is that life is the unfoldment of information contained in genes received from your parents. DNA provides the characteristics of your life. Even anxiety, obesity, homosexuality, aggression, shyness and happiness are attributed to genes. The life established at birth and the rest of life is just the unfolding of program from parents. Genes (DNA molecules) in the nucleus of the cell is the command centre of the cell (tantamount to the human brain). Thus the belief (now debunked here) is that genes control our health and every aspect of our lives.  (The wrong beliefs (disempower) robs you power over your genes which will be now be releases with the reality discovered by Dr. Lipton. This was the new understanding in the last 10 years. Fact from science takes 10-15 years to be made publicly known.    

                The human body is made up of 50-75 trillion cells.  Each cell is a complete system as in the human system – respiratory, digestive, excretory, endocrine, integumentary, nervous, reproductive, and immune. They are structural functional counterparts of each other. Whatever is in the cell is in the human.

                But In Lipton’s research, cell lives without the nucleus (“brain” taken out for 2months without genes), growing, communicating, removing wastes, and build up structures.  It recognises toxins and moves away and doing everything it did as before. It still has behaviour and there is no alteration of characteristics at all. This demonstrates that genes do not control biology. It was a mistaken assumption never proven scientifically (like Darwin’s theory of evolution). But it seems so correct we bought the story. This cosmic jokes is exposed by the Human Genome Project (blue print on how to make a human) - If genes control our biology, then there has to be at least 120,000 genes to make a human.  The Human Genome Project found less than 35000 genes.  The old belief system from earlier scientists was wrong. Genes do not control biology.

                4.1.2 The Living Cell and Proteins

                A human cell is a machine made up of protein parts. Like the human body that operates with organs, organelles in the cell carry out the same function. So where is the brain of the cell? There are 70,000- 90,000 proteins in the cell (like building blocks to provide the structure) and they are assembled to interact with each other to create the complex thing we call life.  Proteins are linear strings of beads (amino acid) with difference in length and sequencing of beads.  The sequence of amino acids determines the shape of the protein part (20 variations- giving stable structures). What constitutes life is in the basic generation of simple movement. The two ends of each protein part have negative charges. Thus they repel each other to be stable by repulsion of like charges. They are activated on receiving an environmental signal, e.g. molecule, estrogen, (a hormone) that is with the right positive charge being attracted to one negative end making it positively charged that causes movement to the negative end. And the protein change shape which is its job. life is movement and by opening and closing  each protein is to do a job.   The signal received changes the balance and cause movement.

                Proteins provide physical structure. But it can change shape when a signal binds to that protein. The static protein when it receives a signal does a job in the cell. (E.g. Digestion- enzyme in a food molecule gets caught up and separate, ripping it apart.) The structure of the machine is due to the protein parts (chain of amino acids). The final structure is due to the sequence of the amino acids and the charge. When the charge is balanced it is stable. In the case of the protein that causes contraction in muscles, the contraction depends on the Calcium (signal) plugging in and changes the charge and causes the protein to change its shape, from inactive form to active form. Remove the signal and it reverses. Activity is controlled by the signal.

                The protein also provides behaviour. Behaviour is the movement, action that expresses life.  Protein plus signal equals behaviour.  Your behaviour represents the actionable protein that interacts with the signal. Signal activates the protein to move. Movement generates behaviour. The brain of the cell is the protein structure that controls the signal to tell the cell what to do in response to the environment. The brain of the cell is the skin membrane of the cell. In embryology, there are three germ layers that create the ultimate full size organism. – Ectoderm, Mesoderm and Endoderm.  Each layer gives rise to different organs and tissues.  Ectoderm gives rise to skin, brain and nervous system. The brain is derived from your skin. The skin is the interface between the environment  and the cytoplasm. The skin reads and then tells the protein to do. The nucleus is the gonad (the reproduction) it contains all the blueprints to make the different parts in our body. It does not know which part is needed at a particular time. No intelligence is involved, just a repository for the pattern.  Protein wears out and nucleus provides the blueprint for the parts.  So genes are not capable of any intelligent function. Cell works by taking a signal from the environment, say sunshine, chemical, sound, and shape. The membrane picks it up, called the primary signal, and converts the signal into protein.  The behaviour is mediated by the cell membrane as it responds to the environment.  Life is response to the environment.  Your behaviour is not due to the genes  but how you see the signal which is  called perception and then convert that signal  into selecting the right proteins for your responses.  (No genes is involved)

                4.1.2.1 The Membrane with Receptors and Effectors

                The working of the membrane is based on observations of cells growing in a petri dishes. Its skin is like a sandwich with a lipid layer in the middle- a protective layer of oil under the skin in which all the mechanisms can work.   The surface of the cell have structures like antenna that proteins build into the membrane, they read the environment and convert that environmental signal into behaviour. Proteins in the cell membrane can be divided into two groups, Receptors (with antenna)  tuned to environmental information, (might be histamine, glucose which tells me to get ready for an  emergency response or insulin to change my metabolic pathway)  For everything the cell can see it has a different antenna.  The signal picked up is converted by the next class, the Effector, with channels where information can go in.  The cells are covered with intelligence for everything the cell can deal with. (e.g. Enzymes which proteins that cause metabolism to occur or cytoskeletal proteins that change the shape for the cell ( toxic  cause to run away). The Receptor is like eyes, nose, ears. The Receptor is the input. It reads the environment, change shape to connect to the Effector which generates the behaviour through a secondary signal, the output. This unit is controlling a specific aspect of behaviour of the cell (all perfectly coordinated). There are thousands of these kinds of unit acting simultaneously. Each unit is just a switch. Each switch will activate a specific behaviour of the cell.   The Receptor (because of its awareness of the environment) converts the environmental signal to an biological action so the output is to create a physical sensation (response). This control unit  is called perception  an act or result of perceiving, awareness of environment through physical sensation (sees an activate a behaviour; no genes is involved,  just stimulus and response).  Thus perception controls behaviour (movement of protein). 

                Behaviour is adjusting to the environment (there is no program), but what if no protein is present in the cell to respond.  Then it is the DNA (blueprint of protein - basis are the steps of the double helix) that performs its role (as the colour sequence of the DNA codes for the sequence of the Amino acids).  The plan for a specific protein is built into the specific DNA. There is no action  from the DNA except when  it is needed,  when the gene is needed then it is activated to make the protein required  by  the cell to do the behaviour.  (E.g. cancer gene activating itself is a false concept a 50 years lie, never a scientific reality.  Genes do not turn itself on or off is the biochemical truth.  Genes cannot control biology) When a gene product is needed, a signal from an environment (not an emergent property of the gene itself) activates expression of the genes (Niehaus). Genes are always selected in response to the environment. It is your life style, the way you decided to live that promoted activation of the  genes sitting dormant  (say 35 yrs). So the  focus is on the signal not on the genes.  

                The nucleus contains chromosomes, 23 pairs (father and mother form a pair) to make a human. Half is DNA and the other half protein (ignorantly ignored for 50 years as being “junk”).  DNA is always associated with the proteins. Protein forms a sleeve around the DNA.  If the target protein is not present in the cytoplasma, a signal goes to the nucleus and activates the gene. This signal binds with the regulatory gene by the right shape. This signal from the environment opens/removes the sleeve (regulatory) DNA to activate the RNA (gene- Xerox copy of DNA) to form the needed protein.  (The primacy of the environmental signal activates (opens/removes sleeve of) regulatory protein, exposed the DNA then the needed protein is made.)  After the signal is gone, this gene is covered again. Thus it is the signals from your environment you perceive that select the negative genes or process in your body.  The secondary signal from the Effector that the protein is missing, then goes to the nucleus, finds the right genes by binding to the right regulatory protein causing the regulatory protein sleeve to come off exposing the gene, copy made (RNA) that goes out into the cell and is used for the function and behaviour of the cell.

                4.1.3 Perception controls Genes.

                Perception controls behaviour because the protein was there. The perception was the signal that converted the sleeve of the DNA to come off. So perception goes to the genes and also selects which appropriate gene is to be expressed. The third aspect concerns the encounter with stressful environment.  What is the mechanism for genetic change?  Convention belief says,  random mutation  cause by  chemical and outcome is random (evolution was random changes in the genes  only changes by accident - Darwin theory  that changes in the genes is  by accident. However, in 1988 John Cairns (article published in Nature) changed the entire foundation of biology. He found that there a new kind of adaptive mutation, that genes are not changing randomly but the environment is controlling the mutation  so that you are always adjusting our genes to fit the environment. It is not random that it is environmentally directed mutation. More recent experiment shows that changes in all five test tubes are the same meaning  evolutionary changes (in bacteria) are always adapting to the environment to survive– we adjust our genes to fit the environment that we think we  live in  because perception may be right or  wrong.  For perception is belief.  Thus it is belief that changes your genes – your perception that changes your genes is  not just an accident. 

                There is now found the genetic engineering genes that in every one of your cell you have those function to rewrite other genes when necessary. We are all equipped to have the   ability to adapt and change our genes as we respond to the environment.   Environment signals activate genetic engineering genes that can change your own genes and your genotype.  But organism perception of the environment and the environment itself are two different things. My perception may be different from the reality of the environment. Nevertheless what does perception do - it activates genetic engineering genes.  Your own beliefs are selecting your genes and if you don’t have the right genes  to handle the  stress  your belief will rewrite your genes in an effort to do so.  There is a lot of control in your life but it is mediated in your life by the perception of your environment  that is controlling all things  Thus the third aspect of perception is  when necessary perception  rewrites genes.  Thus you are not a victim of your heredity, because by adjusting your perception you can adjust your behaviour. (Perception controls behaviour/ genes /rewrites genes.)  We are endowed with very appropriate genes to survive and there is no need to change most of the time. The problem is almost always when you rewrite your genes. You do negative process as most genes are already working 95% of the time.  So lots of illnesses like cancer are not hereditary (95% not due to heritage but mainly by perception.) Your perception sees the environment and interprets it which forms the basis of your belief that affects the cell response.

                Perception in human is related to belief. So you can change anything in your body (but if you change it you usually make it less effective with the organisms.) The nervous system sees the environment. Beliefs are altering our environment every time.

                                Genes in cell are similar as a program in a disk in a computer. There are two classes of programs, one for survival- growth and reproduction; the other for protection. Experiments have shown that cells move positively for growth.  But in protection it stops growing. (Total of all cells indicates it is in either stage.) It is dual strip going one way or the other. In human behaviour, the most promoting signal is love. It exceeds nutrition. A child getting love will grow. The lack of love to the children in Eastern Europe attests to the 30% autism in Europe (Not responding to environment, putting up protection in fear shutting down growth mechanism). Love is the advancing growth mechanism.  The mechanism is in the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis and the Hypothalamus gauges the signal. Stress activates the pituitary gland (the master gland that controls shape of body- growth/protection; to fight or flight). The Viscera (the central part of the body) controls the body’s growth and are supported by the muscles to protect it.  The muscles fight to survive.  Hormones released in the adrenal glands cause the vessels to squeeze the viscera and push the blood to periphery where the muscles are to get ready to run (under stress, growth mechanism stops) - the adrenal system protects against the environment that attacks it.  There is also the immune system, a protection system against bacteria that get under the skin (and uses much energy in the body). Under stress condition the adrenal system gets higher that shuts off immune system and we get sick.  (This is the basis surgeons use stress hormones to inhibit immune system in grafting in organs).

                In Fight or Flight decision the fore brain squeezes blood to the back (reflex) and conscious intelligence reduced such that under stress intelligence is reduce.  This is experienced even in watching TV when emotion of fear raises the adrenaline.

                The body is like a camera. Environmental signals are picked up by the lens, translated to film in making a complementary copy. The cell is like a camera; its membrane is the lens that sends to the nucleus (as the data base) where stored images are. The cell will make a physical structure to complement the environment – physical expression is the reflection of that environment.  What the eye sees can cause stress that affects your physiology and adrenaline level to shut down growth.  How I see the picture of Maxwell Parrish’s “Ecstasy” reflects who I am. It is the perception interfaces between the environment and your biology. But perception is belief.  Therefore belief acts as a filter between the real environment and your biology. Belief filters can cause fear if they are not accurate to select genes inappropriate for your environment.  Keeping in balance is keeping perception clear.  The filter is between the environment and the things we have learned. Before we are born we were already learning from the mother and her perception of the environment because she in turn was helped previously.  Parents are genetic engineers selecting changes in offspring as they develop so that offspring fits into environment they live in. 

                Life have everything in it but you only see what you have perception filters to see. You were taught perception filters from interactions with, parents and schools on how to see life. Wrong filters can be removed that interferes.  It won’t take long, just minutes as Robert Williams has devised the possible tool to rapidly change the belief  to select healthier  growth satisfying genes. (to be discussed later in par 4.1.5)  You are all powerful, the knowledge factor you have  is power over the unfoldment of your life, power over which gene to be activated to express who you are, which behaviour to express  and not be a victim of genes. The beliefs you have select the genes. If the genes is  not appropriate as manifested in your behaviour and your health you can change these beliefs. Having the belief that is true is therefore supremely vital.

                4.1.4 Wrong and Right Belief

                The power of belief has profound effects on our behaviour and genetic expression. Research in the field of Behavioural Epigenetics provides insight into how we can become empowered, and rise to the level of being master of our lives.

                Cited in the clipathttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBKoyrsuGoY - ( 10:38), published on Jun 11, 2013,  are two  real life cases on belief.  The first case is Angelina Jolie's recent public disclosure of her double mastectomy raises concern about the methods through which we choose to heal. The other case is that of Anita Moorjani who is healed from cancer by reversing her wrong belief with the right belief.

                4.1.4.1 Case of Wrong Belief- Angelina Jolie

                Angelina Jolie, Hollywood star, is a prime example of the consequence of Behavioural Epigenetics. Angelina is acting on the perception based on the wrong belief that the genes in her control the certainty of having breast cancer and eliminate that possibility by surgery.   Her belief is in having the genes that predispose her to the cancer and that “I am going to have cancer if I don’t eliminate my breast at this point (motivation for mastectomy) so that my future is really clouded by the threat of this cancer which may take my life and separate me from my wonderful children.”  Belief is profound.

                The concern is that there are many women who will be buying into her resolution. It commits people to believe that cancer is inevitable in their lives and mastectomy is the only way out. This is a belief issue. We must change this. 

                4.1.4.2 Case of Right Belief- Anita Moorjani

                This is the story of Anita Moorjani about her journey from cancer to near death to true healing In the book “Dying to be Me.” Anita had cancer for four years and was in a state of dying and in her last days of life she was no longer eating, her body had become emaciated and she was self- adjusting her own system for nourishment. She started to fall into a coma and was sent to hospital and the Doctor said this is the end and there is nothing more they can do.

                Miraculously in her near death state she received that impression on the whole story of biology of belief. She recalled that her upbringing and her inter family relationships challenged her life because she didn’t conform to her culture and this caused a lot of self-deprecation and belief about her not being worthy.  In addition her two very close friends were dying of cancer and her fear of their cancers in her life also promoted an illness and she ended up with cancer. She realised that programming and beliefs led to her cancer (Described by her as a near death experience and the afterlife reality- commonly held perception but more appropriately as divine act of God).  She had the opportunity to then change her belief. The amazing part was when she woke up and decided to change her belief that within four days the cancer was completely gone from her body.

                The emphasis points to belief, programming and attitude. So we should consider the new understanding about the nature of cancer and our psychology because once we empower ourselves that we do not have to be the victim of cancer then we can change our lives. We do not have to go through the fate of our genes because we are masters of our genes. We control our genetics and our destiny through epigenetic mechanisms. Thank God that science come out with the field called Behavioural Epigenetics (the biology of belief) to reveal that we are not victims unless our beliefs system says we are. Consider the other possibilities of our lives, how powerful you are in controlling and unfolding your own life by having the right beliefs. 

                4.1.5 The Psychology of Change 

                Psychologist Robert Williams has devised a tool to affect change based on Lipton’s scientific principle that Beliefs control genes and behaviour and belief actually precedes perception and controls perception.  Rewrite the perception rewrite genes and behaviour. In “The Psychology of Change” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKExwN0ZBUw – ( 1:13:06),  published on Oct 6, 2012, Williams presents how easy it is to bring about the change in just a few minutes.

                                Beliefs, both conscious and subconscious, are conclusions, derived from information and/or experience (truth from two sources). E.g. Jury create beliefs from info alone or experience from being burnt by candle fire at two affecting future perception.  There is still ignorance in psychotherapy that change in subconscious belief is achieved with lots of conscious means. It is impossible to change the subconscious with conscious means.  Your belief determine your biological and behavioural reality.  Virtually every part of our lives is governed by our belief system.  Beliefs are filters of reality.  We see the world not as it is but as you are. Each has own set of filter on who I am, who you are. So facts are your subjective opinion.  Filters are your reality. You live in fear and confusion as your two minds are not in harmony seeking for protection and the soul is hurting. Williams came up with his understanding on the nature of change and beliefs and devised his tool of change in a painless way over 14 years.

                Belief creates perception that affects your self- esteem; relationships, prosperity; job performance; mental health, physical health; spiritual outlook). We look forward to joy and growth in maturity or otherwise scream in the protection mode and stop growing. What is preventing our attaining Joy? I can or I can’t messages. They are parental induced/ societal reinforced childhood programming (habits set by 5 year old) of perception and behaviour conclusion that translates into – adult experiences.  Habits are self-reinforcing cycles of beliefs and perception – E.g. child candle experience shapes perception; creates beliefs, and then reinforces perception. It shapes experience and reinforce behaviour to shape character. Breaking the cycle like self-deprecating behaviour requires- rewriting the software of your mind to change the printout of your experience (E.g. changing environment). Tools given in the past 35 years such as positive thinking, affirmation, will-power, worked maybe 20% of the time.

                4.1.5.1 Williams’  Behaviour Changing Tool

                Williams show one psychic change process he developed to give  an idea how quickly a belief can be changed and can be verified as it changes. The problem is we are talking to the wrong mind that is in charge of habits.             

                We have two minds.  (It is difficult to change your mind, a mind of its own.  It wants to do good but can’t because it is not approached.)  The Conscious mind (CM) is volitional. It sets goals and judges. It likes to try new things. The Subconscious mind (SM) is habitual (basic job is to keep you safe), it monitors operation of the body (e.g. motor function, heart rate, digestion) and prefers the familiar (basic job is to be safe). The CM thinks abstractly and is conceptually based. The SM thinks literally;, sensory based (five senses - the reality).  The CM reads self-help books and is adventurous. It is motivated but without convincing the SM. The CM has short term (20 sec) memory. The SM has long term storage of memories. It turns conscious learning to habitual baseline acts, e.g. driving. CM is time bound and thinks of past and future. SM is timeless concerning the present time only. CM has limited processing capacity of one to three events, averaging at 2000 bits per sec. SM has an expanded processing capacity handling thousands of events (including all motor functions),  averaging at 4 billion bits sec. SM controls the motor function which controls the  autonomic nervous system, which controls your biology and ultimately your health) There are a whole set of immune enhancing beliefs and also immune suppressing beliefs. (In psycho neuro immunology it is well known that long repressed anger and hatred is associated with breast cancer personal characteristics.) It is easier to change thoughts and behaviour if you access the SM, because because it is the storehouse for attitudes, values and beliefs. Affirming what you belief is the role of the CM. Thus affirmation is ineffective if not communicated to SM. An easy and effective way to communicate with the SM is with muscle testing because the subconscious controls motor functions (muscle movements). Muscle testing is the key to know (measure) what is going on in SM.

                4.1.5.1.1 Muscle Testing

                You need to watch the demonstration in the video (30:50-41:40) to learn about this technique.

                Communicating with SM- muscle testing (Psych-Ktm based on True/False .. conflict detector; Like/dislike.. stress detector; Y/N – communication system. Note: eyes open and focused down to be emotionally involved. (If we are saying things with no emotional response then electrical signal sent from brain to the muscle has no effect). Say ”be strong” before pressing on the extend arm. This is a cheap bio feedback to the belief change process. Consciously we think we are controlling the body and our behaviour and responses. Mostly your SM is running the program, both behavioural and biologically. You are not used to accessing and experiencing it consciously Muscle testing is a simple way to do that.

                4.1.5.2 Changing Beliefs

                There are two hemispheres of the brain LB/RB – logic/emotions. Words/pictures. Analytical- Parts/ synthesis-whole order-control/spontaneous-free (left controls right side of body). The corpus callosum (fiber optics) is the communication pathway between L and R (cross talk) can shut down under stress. Then the preferred hemisphere is used for fight or flight. The Ideal is to use the whole brain.

                The Mind is not the brain. It is all energy work. Mind is energy that interpenetrates the brain and body, ie photons of light held in an electromagnetic field. The brain is the gray matter inside your cranium- like CPU chip in computer.

                4.1.5.2.1 Myths and Facts

                Myths and facts about changing beliefs are:

                1. Myth- Long time limiting belief take long time to change it. Fact- changing sub conscious beliefs is like changing documents in computer.

                2. Myth-Changing old behaviour and thought patterns is difficult and often painful.  Fact- thought patterns and behaviour are caused by perceptions (beliefs). Beliefs are represented by specific configurations of photons of light held in an electro-magnetic field. Change the field you change the belief. Change the belief and you change the behavior or thought pattern. (Isolate the belief to change and get the subconscious to do the work of changing for you).

                3. Myth-You need to consciously know what cause the problem in order to change. Fact: Becoming consciously aware of the source of the problem is seldom necessary to change most beliefs or behaviours when dealing with the subconscious mind,  

                4.1.5.2.2 “Psych-Ktm” Belief Change Process

                Watch the video  (51:50- 1:12:26) with the following note.

                1. Establish Communication with the subconscious. (no dark place) (I can’t messages) replace with I can message).

                2. Pretest the desired Belief Statement (get both hemisphere to balance- cross leg and then cross hands and test – to configure body to reflect sub conscious mind ( different from meditation that  all ideas emptied, but here to invite other ideas in.) It is simply affirming a statement is true. It is not prayer asking for intercession.  Not positive thinking or visualization. It is educating the system that are resistant. It is doing through filters of whole brain integration. In this posture you can’t think of downside. Both hemispheres are working simultaneously in perceiving this goal in a brand new way (Not having to sort out between the brains). As soon as it in the whole brain integration the belief is secured (It would take between 2-5 mins.)

                3. Get permission and commitment to change the belief using Psych-Ktm balance. (Whole brain integration. This step is very important as it will find out if the idea is welcomed.)

                4. Do the balance.

                5. Post-test the belief statement (muscle test is objective way to measure a subjective way to change).

                6. Celebrate the change. (Karen describes what she experiences in changing her belief on her statement that she deserves happiness and success in her life. Initially she has doubts such as: no you don’t; others will get jealous; feeling guilty until all of a sudden she realised that God wants everybody to be happy and successful. God personally wants her to be happy and successful. Then she feels a lifting sense of happiness. It takes 5 minutes in the midst of the distraction.)  (This technique does not appear to be mystical like eastern meditation technique and does not seem to be unbiblical. The best way of course is based on the method that Jesus teaches in the Bible which will be the subject of another discovery session.)   

                Some of the common internalised “I Can’t” Messages are: You’ll never amount to anything; You’re worthless; You’re not good enough; No matter how hard never amount to anything; You’re worthless; You’re not good enough; No matter how hard you try it’s never good enough; Money is hard to come by and hard to keep; You don’t deserve to succeed; No one will ever have you; You’re going to get cancer (whatever disease), because it’s genetic.

                The “I can” messages that can be true to you are: I can accomplish anything I choose; I am a worthy and valuable person; I am intelligent and capable; I do my best and my best is good enough; I easily attract money into my life and use it; I deserve happiness and success in my life; I have myself and I am loved by others; My beliefs control my genes and I control my beliefs

                Your beliefs determine the limits of what you can achieve. 

                “If you belief you can if you believe you can’t you’re right.”- Henry Ford.

                4.1.5.3 Positive Thinking to Change Life (12:16- 24:41)

                https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWT8PE-xgH4  (1:03-34:22)   “Answers from Dr. Bruce Lipton,” uploaded on Feb 9, 2011)

                The problem with the concept of power thinking is people’s belief that by thinking positively then my life should be affected. Having a positive thought does not in any way necessitate that those positive thoughts actually manifest themselves. When you are using your mind the new biology reveals that the invisible forces form a field which shape biology. The mind influences biology, but there are two parts to the mind that are completely different from one another yet they work together and we fuse and tie them together. They represent two different entities. There is the Conscious Mind (CM) and the Subconscious Mind (SM). CM is the creative mind that is connected to our personal identity and our spiritual selves that makes us all unique. It is the SM that is equivalent to a tape player. It records experiences and then plays them back. The SM is the equivalent of a computer that is a million times more powerful information processor than the CM. On a day by day basis, the SM runs about 95 -99 percent of the time. It is not evil or good. But the program can be good or bad. The source of the problem that we face is that they limit our abilities and take away our powers of the thought as suggested but cannot do.

                4.1.5.3.1 The Relevance of Positive Thinking  

                Positive thinking is a creative thought of your CM. This is competing with the subconscious mind. It is pitting positive thought of having good health and good relationship against a program that say you are not healthy and not a good person to have those relationship. So the more power processor will win.  The other aspect is that the CM only operates 5 percent of the day (as 95 percent of the day the other operation system is operating). So unless the sub conscious has the same program in agreement the power of positive thinking does not work.  One more piece of problem the world is facing today is that they work in tandem. The old belief is not true that the CM can control every function of the body (assigning part of the brain that run all things in your body (the involuntary parts) and primarily conscious of only controlling the muscles. The CM is only small part of the brain and the SM has to carry out all the details and can carry it out. We can be unconscious (most are) and our lives look exactly the same – dressing, driving- automatic behaviour that frees up the consciousness so that the consciousness has to be dealing with all of all the body functions, etc.) We free up the consciousness for creative thinking. The issue is when the CM is not focusing on some job or task (unless it’s on a day dream mode- thinking about your vacation) then the SM is doing the conscious task.  However, does your CM observe your SM?

                The nature of the tradeoff is the SM can run everything when the CM is busy. If the CM is not paying attention it does not see the programs that are playing in the SM. We do not see the SM when it plays.  It has programs in it that we primarily got from other people in our development. If we are operating from the SM we are not seeing the programs that may not be supporting who we are or what we want- the programs in our CM. When life doesn’t work, when we don’t find in that relationship that your positive thinking was looking for, when you don’t get that help you were looking for because your positive thinking was asking for. WE HAVE A TENDENCY TO BLAME the outside world (we couldn’t see the SM running the show). We are generally sabotaging and destroying or limiting our own lives with behaviours that are not supporting us. (We copy the attitude that all the outside forces are controlling my life working against me and I am  a victim of  this world  and I can’t do anything about it. As soon as you buy that you are a victim of your sub conscious programming that led to the life that you have. To understand is to change your sub conscious programming and change your life. The program cannot be changed by talking. You need to learn to push the record button and then you can record the new program. The old belief system in conventional psychology (going through all the psychological counselling and all the reasoning and still have the same life) inclusive of positive thinking does not work. Learn how to engage the player in the record mode, not just talking.

                4.1.5.3.2 Reprogramming the Subconscious Mind (24:47- 26:50)

                Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a process which engages super learning. Super learning is pushing the record button on the SM. We have received preprogramming from the last half of our fetal development to the first six years of our lives. A child does not express consciousness (operating in the Theta wave phase) Alpha wave phase is a dominant brain state starting after six. The Theta wave phase is the state of imagination mixing real world and imaginary world – expression of the brain function. It also is equivalent to an induced hypnotic trance. (To hypnotise you I have to get you out of consciousness and drop you into the theta phase to bypass consciousness and then the program goes into the SM.) In the first six years of life we are downloading experiences which we play back as characters in our life behaviours. It is down loaded from other people and considered as our own nature (to the extent that we are not conscious that it was from others that we claim it as being ourselves).  It may be sabotaging (the wrong beliefs) us as we actually acquire it from other people.

                Other aspects that require reprogramming are in Current Health and Childhood Programming (26:54-28:20) Unconscious Beliefs and Health (28:08-29:26 ); and False Teaching (30:38-34:14)

                When sick we go to the doctor to get healed. Many get well on the way to the doctor (conditioned by the childhood program). We need to deprogram ourselves. We have been so programmed to devalue ourselves and lose power and control in our lives.

                We are victims of biological entities that biology operates according to Newtonian principles (the material reality and does not believe in Quantum Physics), that Genes control lives. Control is an action. Gene is a blueprint. Conventional wisdom falsely give genes self actualisation. It is whether the blueprint is being read by the mind. The mind can change the read out. The mind through epigenetic mechanisms can start with one gene and create over 30,000 different versions of product from the same blueprint (infinite variation of expression of the genes). We modify the read out. Our mind can cause cancer and other diseases. Defective genes can be rewritten.

                4.2 Discovery D4 Souvenir

                1. The human body is made up of 50-75 trillion cells.  Each cell is a complete system as in the human system. The brain of the cell is in the proteins as discovered by Dr Bruce Lipton who illustrates that genes do not control biology. It was a mistaken assumption never proven scientifically (like Darwin’s theory of evolution). A human cell is a machine made up of protein parts, like the human body that operates with organs. There are 70,000- 90,000 proteins in the cell and they are assembled to interact with each other to create the complex thing we call life.  Proteins provide physical structure. But it can change shape when a signal binds to that protein. Activity is controlled by the signal. Behaviour is the movement, the action that expresses life.  Protein plus signal equals behaviour.

                2. We adjust our genes to fit the environment that we think we live in (perceive, rightly or wrongly). Perception is belief that changes your genes –our perception that changes our genes is not just an accident.  Life is response to the environment.  Our behaviour is not due to the genes but how we see the signal which is called perception and then converts that signal into selecting the right proteins for our responses (No genes is involved). The biochemical truth is Genes do not turn itself on or off.  When a gene product is needed, a signal from the environment activates expression of the genes. Genes are always selected in response to the environment. It is your life style, the way you decided to live that promoted activation of the genes sitting dormant (say  for 35 yrs. of our life). So the focus is on the signal not on the genes. (In human behaviour, the most promoting signal is love. It exceeds nutrition. A child getting love will grow.) There is a lot of control in your life but it is mediated in your life by the perception of your environment  that is controlling all things. Thus we are not a victim of our heredity, because by adjusting our perception we can adjust our behaviour. Lots of illnesses like cancer are not hereditary (95% not due to heritage but mainly by perception.) Our perception sees the environment and interprets it to form the basis of our belief that affects the cell response.

                3. Belief acts as a filter between the real environment and our biology. Belief filters can cause fear if they are not accurate in selecting genes inappropriate for our environment.  Keeping in balance is keeping perception clear.  The filter is between the environment and the things we have learned. Genes in cell are similar as a program in a disk in a computer. There are two classes of programs, one for survival- growth and reproduction; the other for protection. Life have everything in it but you only see what you have perception filters to see. You were taught perception filters from interactions with parents and schools on how to see life. Wrong filters can be removed that interferes.  It won’t take long, just minutes as Robert Williams has devised the possible tool to rapidly change the belief to select healthier growth satisfying genes.

                4. We are all powerful, the knowledge factor we have  is power over the unfoldment of our life, power over which gene to be activated to express who we are, which behaviour to express  and not be a victim of genes. The beliefs we have select the genes. If the genes is not appropriate as manifested in our behaviour and our health we can change these beliefs. Having the belief that is true is therefore supremely vital. The power of belief has profound effects on our behaviour and genetic expression. Research in the field of Behavioural Epigenetics provides insight into how we can become empowered, and rise to the level of being master of our lives. This is imanifested in the two real life cases, one with the wrong belief and the other with the right belief.  Angelina Jolie's recent public disclosure of her double mastectomy raises concern about the methods through which we choose to heal. The other case is that of Anita Moorjani who is healed from cancer by reversing her wrong belief with the right belief.

                5. Our belief determines our biological and behavioural reality.  Beliefs are filters of reality.  We live in fear and confusion when our two minds are not in harmony leading mind to seek for protection and the soul is hurting. Belief creates perception that affects our self- esteem; relationships, prosperity; job performance; mental health, physical health; spiritual outlook. We look forward to joy and growth in maturity or otherwise scream in the protection mode and stop growing. The problem is  parental induced/ societal reinforced childhood programming (habits set by 5 year old) of perception and behaviour conclusion that translates into – adult experiences.  Habits are self-reinforcing cycles of beliefs and perception. Breaking the cycle, like self-deprecating behaviour, requires- rewriting the software of our mind to change the printout of our experience (E.g. changing environment). Tools given in the past 35 years such as positive thinking, affirmation, will-power, worked maybe 20% of the time.  Williams show one psychic change process he developed to give an idea how quickly a belief can be changed and can be verified as it changes. The problem is we are talking to the wrong mind that is in charge of habits.

                6. The mind influences biology, but we have two minds, Conscious mind (CM) and Sub-Conscious Mind (SM) (It is difficult to change our mind, a mind of its own.  It wants to do good but can’t because it is not approached.)  The CM has limited processing capacity of one to three events, averaging at 2000 bits per sec. SM has an expanded processing capacity handling thousands of events (including all motor functions),  averaging at 4 billion bits sec. It is easier to change thoughts and behaviour if we access the SM, because because it is the storehouse for attitudes, values and beliefs. Affirming what we belief is the role of the CM. Thus affirmation is ineffective if not communicated to SM. CM is the creative mind that is connected to our personal identity and our spiritual selves that makes us all unique. It is the SM that is equivalent to a tape player. It records experiences and then plays them back. The SM is the equivalent of a computer that is a million times more powerful information processor than the CM. On a day by day basis, the SM runs about 95 -99 percent of the time. It is not evil or good. But the program can be good or bad. The source of the problem that we face is that they limit our abilities and take away our powers of the thought as suggested but cannot do.

                7. Positive thinking is a creative thought of our CM. This is competing with the subconscious mind. However CM only operates 5 percent of the day (as 95 percent of the day the other operation system is operating.  It is pitting positive thought of having good health and good relationship against a program that say we are not healthy and not a good person to have those relationship. So the more power processor will win.  So unless the sub conscious has the same program in agreement the power of positive thinking does not work. 

                8. To understand is to change our sub conscious programming and change our life. The program cannot be changed by talking. We need to learn to push the record button and then we can record the new program. The old belief system in conventional psychology (going through all the psychological counselling and all the reasoning and still have the same life) inclusive of positive thinking does not work. Learn how to engage the player in the record mode, not just talking.

                9. We are victims of biological entities that biology operates according to Newtonian principles (the material reality and does not believe in Quantum Physics), that Genes control lives. Control is an action. Gene is a blueprint. Conventional wisdom falsely give genes self actualisation. It is whether the blueprint is being read by the mind. The mind can change the read out. The mind through epigenetic mechanisms can start with one gene and create over 30,000 different versions of product from the same blueprint (infinite variation of expression of the genes). We modify the read out. Our mind can cause cancer and other diseases. Defective genes can be rewritten.

Important Postscript Comments to D4

               It is providential that I read “Doc Talk” by Dr Chia  on Sep13, 2016, while waiting for four hours for my regular eye checkup on my glaucoma condition. These comments are for the ladies who are contemplating preventative "risk- reducing surgery" in removing both breasts- like Angelina Jolie (with plastic surgery reconstruction), ovaries and fallopian tubes.

                Who do you believe?

                Appended below  are specific excerpts from Doc Talk: “Human destiny is in genetic make-up but we are not powerless to act” by  Dr John Chia, print edition of The Straits Times on September 13, 2016 at http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/health/human-destiny-is-in-genetic-make-up-but-we-are-not-powerless-to-act    that differ from the information in Discoverylifediy article D4  based on the video clip,  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzAGSJbZidQ  (1:08:28) – “How our Beliefs affects our Body and Biology” by Dr. Bruce H. Lipton, published on Sep 21, 2014.

            1. What is the correct conventional wisdom concerning Genes and Biology?

                A) Dr. Lipton is a cellular biologist, University of Wisconsin cloning human muscle cells (a stem cell pioneer). He studies individual cell on a petri dish in an effort to understand what is controlling their fate, what is dystrophic and pathological, and what is making them normal. His research reveals the breakdown of the scientific foundation that we are controlled by genes. Instead He finds that it is the perception of the environment that controls the cell. At the cell levels perceptions are perceptions, but at the human levels perceptions are beliefs. It is actually our beliefs that select our genes and select our behaviours.

                He claims that the conventional belief system is invalidated: that life is the unfoldment of information contained in genes received from your parents. DNA provides the characteristics of your life. Even anxiety, obesity, homosexuality, aggression, shyness and happiness are attributed to genes. The life established at birth and the rest of life is just the unfolding of program from parents. Genes (DNA molecules) in the nucleus of the cell is the command centre of the cell (tantamount to the human brain). Thus the belief (now debunked here) is that genes control our health and every aspect of our lives.  (The wrong beliefs (disempower) robs you power over your genes which will be now be releases with the reality discovered by Dr. Lipton. This was the new understanding in the last 10 years. Fact from science takes 10-15 years to be made publicly known.   

                B) Dr John Chia is senior consultant and chief of the gynaecology oncology team at the division of medical oncology at the National Cancer Centre, Singapore. For the past 10 years, he has been extremely active in clinical trial research. His passion has been to improve cancer outcomes for his patients - through research, early diagnosis and care protocols.

                He says: Patients often ask me: "Doc, why did I get cancer?"

                The usual reply I give is: "Your cancer is the result of bad genes and your environment".

                A poor lifestyle, combined with "bad luck", leads to multiple random genetic mutations that cause cancer.

                But the recent advent of highly powerful gene sequencing applied to cancer informs us that about 20 per cent of ovarian cancer is the result of "single gene mutations" inherited directly from one parent, with the potential to be passed down through the generations.

                The most well-known of these are BRCA1 and BRCA2.

                2. Question to pose to Dr Chia- concerning his assertion: “Patients diagnosed with ovarian cancer are counselled to test for BRCA and other hereditary genetic markers. If they test positive, the rest of their "blood-kin" - sisters, brothers and children - will be called to go for similar testing.

                This creates a conundrum.

                While being "test negative" offers a huge sigh of relief, those who test positive for BRCA will have an extremely high risk of developing ovarian and breast cancer somewhere in their lifetimes.

                They will worry. Although they may remain well for years, they would be constantly living under a sword of Damocles.

                He also emphasised: “But genetic determinism (and science is increasingly efficient at testing for some of these mutations) now threatens to take away this very core human belief - of control over our lives.”

                The question- Could it be possible that not all “blood-kin” are “test positive” because their belief system (and lifestyle) are more aligned with the truth and they do not allow genes to control their destiny based on the conclusion drawn by Dr Lipton in his scientific research on cells?

                3. Is Prevention by intervention  the best option for People with Ovarian cancer genes?

                A) Dr Chia: “Secondly, those who do inherit the mutation have a very viable recourse with preventative "risk- reducing surgery". This involves removing breasts (with plastic surgery reconstruction), ovaries and fallopian tubes - after completion of one's family.

                Although it is a difficult step, such risk-reducing surgery is extremely effective. Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie, a BRCA carrier who underwent preventative surgery in 2013 and 2015, continues to lead a normal and active life.”

                B) Dr Lipton denounces this unnecessary loss of body parts: The power of belief has profound effects on our behaviour and genetic expression. Research in the field of Behavioural Epigenetics provides insight into how we can become empowered, and rise to the level of being master of our lives.

                Cited in the clipathttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBKoyrsuGoY - ( 10:38), published on Jun 11, 2013,  are two  real life cases on belief.  The first case is Angelina Jolie's recent public disclosure of her double mastectomy raises concern about the methods through which we choose to heal. The other case is that of Anita Moorjani who is healed from cancer by reversing her wrong belief with the right belief.

                4. The Belief in Astrology and Fate is tantamount to belief in the traditions, superstitions and philosophies of ‘wise’ men. The Bible calls all the wise men of Babylon as magicians, astrologers, sorcerers and the Chaldeans - Dan 2:2.

                A) Dr Chia: True, human destiny is sometimes in our genetic make-up and our fates are outlined in the stars. Yet we are not powerless to act.

                Even for BRCA carriers, the simple action of bearing children to complete their families early and then pursuing risk-reducing surgery can fundamentally alter the genetic predestination to cancer.

                In the plays of Euripides and Sophocles, the "tragedy" occurs when the protagonist actively contributes to his fate and destiny due to some character flaw.

                His destiny is only inescapable because he carries the flaw - hubris and ignorance - inside him that blinds him to the warning signs, thus guiding him inevitably towards his fate.

                We should take heed not to dismiss the benefits of knowledge and to grasp the chance for intervention. And as a society, we will also need to develop better policies for healthcare, insurance and education that will allow us to adapt to the enormous growth in technology.

                This will be necessary if we, as a society, are to reap the full benefits arising from the tremendous progress of science.

                As former United States president Bill Clinton said at the announcement ceremony for the Human Genome Project in 2000: "It is now conceivable that our children's children will know the term "cancer" only as a constellation of stars."

                B) Dr Lipton believes that we are in control of our destiny because by knowing the truth as revealed in science we can change our belief. “But genetic determinism (and science is increasingly efficient at testing for some of these mutations) now threatens to take away this very core human belief - of control over our lives.” says Dr Chia  from his own point of view.

                Psychologist Robert Williams has devised a tool to affect change based on Lipton’s scientific principle that Beliefs control genes and behaviour and belief actually precedes perception and controls perception.  Rewrite the perception rewrite genes and behaviour. In “The Psychology of Change” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKExwN0ZBUw – ( 1:13:06),  published on Oct 6, 2012, Williams presents how easy it is to bring about the change in just a few minutes. (Tsc/sep 14, 2016)

                5) Deduction

                A) In the interest of society medical research should be focused on healing without the removal of any body parts, which is costly mentally depressing and has long term consequences. In the subject under discussion, a long term study should be conducted in  monitoring both the people tested positive with cancer genes and their “blood-kins tested negative” to initially find out what are their differences in beliefs and in lifestyles. They should be informed about the work of Dr Lipton and they be allowed to decide if they are prepared tofollow a heathy lifestyle based on the “eight health laws” discussed in D6 – Best Health Plan in www.discoverylife.com This simple remedy (if it works) may be detrimental to the medical professionals (and resisted) but it is in the best interest of human dignity and wellbeing. 

                B) Dr Chia is right on the key to any conundrum being in education. We need to be taught the skill to test everything we read and to be discerning in knowing the truth from the distortion of truth. We need to practice the art of detecting bias in any writing and starting with mine. (Tsc/Sep 15, 2016)
