The power of mind

A scientist from Phoenix, Arizona, wanted to test a theory. I needed a volunteer that came to the end. At last he found him, he was a condemned to death that would be executed in the electric chair, in the penitentiary of St. Louis in the state of Missouri.

The scientist proposed to the condemned, the following: he would participate in a scientific experiment that consisted in making a small cut in the pulse, in order that his blood was dripping slowly until the last drop. He explained that he had a minimal chance of surviving, but that in any case, his death would be without suffering or pain; he would not even notice.

The condemned accepted, because to die in this way, was preferable to die in the electric chair. They placed him on a stretcher and tied his body so he could not move. Then they made a small cut on his wrist and placed under his arm a small aluminum vessel.

The cut was superficial, only his first layers of skin, but it was enough for him to believe that his veins had actually been cut. Under the bed, a bottle of serum was placed with a small valve that regulated the passage of the liquid, in the form of drops that fell into the vessel. The condemned man could hear the trickle and count every drop of what he thought was his blood.

The scientist, without the condemned seeing it, was closing the valve, so that the trickle diminished, with the intention that he thought that his blood was ending.

With the passing of the minutes his face was losing color, his heart rate accelerated and made him lose air to his lungs. When the despair reached its peak, the scientist completely closed the valve and then the condemned man had a cardiac arrest and died.

The scientist managed to prove that the human mind strictly fulfills all that it perceives and that the individual accepts it, whether positive or negative, acting on our entire psychic and organic part.

This story, leaves us a very interesting teaching. The scientist gave that man a chance at life, but the condemned apparently lost it.
Many times in our life we ​​have problems that seem to be disastrous. Possibly there is someone who tells us that there is a small or very small possibility of reversing this situation, but we decided to believe only what we are capable of perceiving and imagining.

Many times when we believe that we can we are right, but when we think we can not we are also right. Everything depends on how we see things.

I have always thought that the mind has no limits when it deceives itself. Worse still when he does not understand things and manufactures what he can to understand, as when we see things that we take as supernatural but in reality are not.

When an idea enters a weak mind and seizes this mind, it is when fanaticism is born. And fanaticism is something radical and dangerous. The sports fanaticism and even worse the religious fanaticism that thinks that they do well with putting bombs and killing innocent people. Remember, the power of the mind has no limits.
