Yes, years ago when i first came into contact with the books, i asked my dad what he knew about it.
He quoted a 60 minutes hit piece.
The tech was vilified to help the nightly news beliebers to reject it.
It worked.

If you read the material, you will have to decide for you what is true for you.
It says that in one of the books.
It's only true if it is true for you.

I do know life has gotten easier for me once i started applying the things i learned.
