Guest guest Posted March 4, 2003 Report Share Posted March 4, 2003 This one is totally fascinating!! Makes me want to hop right over to Russia and enroll! I certainly intend to WORK on this for myself as much and often as possible! Let's start a discussion group on this method and how you are progressing! Jan Jenson Vizual Health Options Bronnikov Method: Teaching Blind Children to ``See'' http://www.spiritofmaat.com/archive/oct1/bronnkov.htm The Bronnikov Method: Teaching Blind Children to ``See'' by Kostya Kovalenko The appearance all over the world of children who can perform superpsychic feats has prompted many people to research this phenomenon. One spinoff has been the effort to teach so-called ``normal'' children to utilize the same abilities that the superpsychic children seem to be born with (see, for example, My Story, where superpsychic Inge Bardor talks of Señor Guillermo Altamirano, the teacher she calls Memo). Of all the individuals who are teaching people to acquire superpsychic abilities, perhaps the most successful has been Viasheslav Mihailovich Bronnikov. A native of Feodosia in the Ukraine, Bronnikov has created a phenomenal method of develop! ing extrasensory perception in both children and adults. The Bronnikov Method allows children who were born blind to develop an alternative way of seeing that involves what Bronnikov refers to as a kind of radar. Like Señor Altamirano, Bronnikov teaches his students about an inner screen (see SuperPsychics and the Inner TV Screen, by Drunvalo) which, he says, always pops up at some point in the student's practice. But if the reports are true, Bronnikov's results far surpass those of teachers in the West. Even more exciting is that his methods have proved successful with a few adults -- especially those who are highly motivated to heal. To promote his method, Bronnikov has founded an Academy of Human Development in Moscow and is it's president. But though his achievements are mind-boggling, until now he has had no presence on the Internet except for a few newspaper articles in Russian. The Spirit of Ma'at is thus in the positi! on of introducing his work to the Western World. In a video promoting the Bronnikov method, 9-year-old Sasha Levit of Moscow demonstrated his ability to see blindfolded, describing his surroundings and reading an imprint on a medal supplied by one of the presentation attendees. Sasha has also reportedly expanded his physical vision from 3 percent to 13 percent. On his inner bio-computer screen, Sasha examines the cataract in his own eye, then goes from there to the cellular level, where he looks at the chromatin (the chromosome basis for seeing), and checks the nature of the protein produced by what he is viewing.'' Then he gives his body directions to correct any abnormalities. Sasha says, ``I possess an inner vision. I can control the inner computer screen. I can store numbers there and retrieve them later. I can read with my eyes closed and I have developed a photographic memory.'' During the 1995 Presidential visit to Kiev (Ukra! ine) Hillary Clinton visited the clinic in Kiev where kids were going through healing using Bronnikov method and met the author himself. She commented about her wonderful experiences in the Kiev hospital for children. The first publications about Bronnikov and his method appeared in Feodosia newspapers. In 1994 Bronnikov moved to Moscow, but he is planning to return to Feodosia in the near future. How the Method Was Developed Viacheslav Bronnikov was born in the ancient port and sunny city of Feodosia in the eastern part of the Crimean peninsula. He says that he wasn't encouraged by anyone in developing his psychic abilities. To the contrary, when he attempted to describe his sensations to people around him, he says, they would tell him it was crazy. Also, he had difficulty communicating because he stuttered. So as a child he mostly kept silent. Though reluctant to speak about his psychic knowing, many experiences convinced him th! at he possessed supernormal abilities. When asked to describe one of the earliest instances in which these abilities showed up, he talked of an episode that happened when he was 10 or 12 years old. While he was visiting his grandparents, Bronnikov saw in his mind's eye that his parents were quarreling at home, and that his father was breaking dishes. When the boy got back home, where his parents had already made peace, he surprised his father by asking him why he had broken the dishes -- then regretted it, when his father questioned him about how he could know such a thing. Not wanting to be criticized for another one of his crazes, young Bronnikov said that he'd seen the broken dishes in the trashcan. But Bronnikov began seriously learning how to use his abilities only when he was pressed by the total breakdown of his own body. His childhood stuttering was now accompanied by loss of hearing, vision, and movement coordination. He looked! deep into his own pyschic knowing and his dream world -- and there he found a damaged throat center that he saw had to be revived. Subsequently, through this use of inner directives and inner viewing, Bronnikov effectively healed his own problems. And gradually, through this work on himself, he developed a healing method that could be taught to others. And which has helped the blind to ``see.'' ``Normal vision is very primitive,'' says Bronnikov. ``Without special devices, we can't see radiation, we can't see microorganisms. The human eye is a fantastic device, but the mind, the human biocomputer, is even more fantastic. We just have not learned how to use it.'' Night and Day Processes of the Brain Darkness is one of the keys to teaching what Bronnikov calls the ``night mode'' of seeing. For example, as part of 6-year-old Yulia Zaichenko's program with Bronnikov, she played ball blindfolded. ``Night and day processes of th! e brain are very different,'' Bronnikov tells us. ``When we shut our eyes and the light no longer comes in, we get a connection to another source. It has to do with the spinal cord and with certain energy channels that change the pattern of how our brain works. The ability to remap the brain [in night mode] is what makes geniuses. We have found that it's possible for almost any person to learn this. Almost all children younger than fourteen are able to learn this.'' At some point in their training with the night mode, a screen pops up in the student's inner mind. This screen appears to be indispensable to developing superpsychic abilities, and may indicate the key to Bronnikov's success rate. In Mexico, Inge Bardor and her fellow students also were blindfolded -- but if new students could not see the inner screen within a couple of weeks they were sent home. In China, the psychic teachers told their students to clear their heads! and concentrate, and achieved, at best, a 20 percent success rate. Bronnikov appears to be more flexible in his approach and encourages a sense of fun and discovery. And he is willing to wait for each student's inner screen to appear. This patience may account for his nearly 100 percent success with children under the age of 14. It's Like Dreaming: You Can Do Anything Bronnikov started to train his daughter when she was six years old, and at first he had to remind her to practice. Then one day, he was surprised to find her ``viewing'' a cartoon on her inner screen, where a wolf was chasing a rabbit. Bronnikov told her to change the plot, and make the rabbit run after the wolf. ``Doing this kind of activity,'' Bronnikov says, ``stimulates brain development. It is a fast dream state -- but the person is still wide awake.'' So the Bronnikov Method works a lot like lucid dreaming -- conscious, or controlled dreaming -- but without going! to sleep. In a lucid dream, it is possible to do anything you can think of. ``And,'' says Bronnikov, ``it is the same in the waking dream. You are bound only by your imagination.'' Bronnikov's son, Vladimir, has also received training in the Method. It began when he was nine. Now 14, Vladimir possesses photographic and bio-computer memory, can diagnose and heal others, and controls the energy of his body. When a CAT Scan was done on Vladimir's brain, Dr. G. V. Taratynova, a neuropsychologist, reading the CAT Scan results, said that Vladimir was using about 80 percent of his brain when solving problems, whereas in most people only about 3 percent of the brain's neuronal cells are active! ``We are dealing with the ability to control one's own mind,'' says Taratynova, ``and this is the most valuable thing of all that the Bronnikov Method achieves.'' Yuri Pytev, professor of physics, also has conducted scientific experiments with Vladimir, recording his abilities to ``see'' objects in other rooms and in their natural colors -- even when the remote objects were shielded with colored glass. Interestingly, Pytev determined that: Vladimir's viewing feats were interacting with the vision phenomenon! as a wave, The wave-length involved was about 3 millimeters; and The waves -- unlike regular vision -- were not electromagnetic in nature. Commenting on his son, Bronnikov says, ``It's not that I help my son -- it's the son who is able to help his dad. He has six forms of [supernormal] vision now. He can see DNA!'' Adults Use the Training Doctor P.N. Popov, dean of the Department of Eye Diseases at Tver Medical Academy, tells a story of Yulia Sokolova. She had a secondary glaucoma, he says, that made her completely blind and raised the pressure in her eyes to an acutely painful level. Dr. Popov knew of only one way to deal with this pain: removal of her eyes. Accordingly, he prescribed this operation, and scheduled it for the next day. Yulia and her father, however, insisted that only one eye be taken out at first (the right one). So this was done. Two days later, Yulia and her parents learned of the Bronnikov method, and deci! ded to give it a try. Katya Redkina, 14, who healed herself using the Bronnikov Method, has completely changed her experience of going to school. She can answer questions on a test by copying the results from her bio-computer screen -- she simply uploads her textbook into the computer before the test, she says. Yulia was a fast learner and soon she was able to remove the pain using her inner vision. And although her doctors were still afraid that the eye would burst from the pressure inside, when they tested her they found that she had lowered the pressure to a normal level. Yulia's story is unusual because she is a young married woman. Usually Bronnikov and the people who work with him deal only with children. Says Yulia, ``After only four sessions, I was able to see multicolored squares and circles. Now my life has a goal -- I want to teach other blind kids to see.'' This event so impressed Dr. Popov that he himself went throug! h Bronnikov's training. ``Having been a doctor for a long time, it's hard for me to understand this -- I was oriented toward being a ``healer.'' But this work is telling me that, no, we must teach people, so that they can heal themselves.'' Now Popov uses his new abilities to help his own patients. In one instance, Popov reports that he was able to teach a woman patient who had been blind from birth to see six lines of text on the vision charts. ``I will never forget that!'' he says. Nadezhda Petrova, a 16-year-old artist, creates her paintings with the help of her bio-computer. When she uses it, everything happens ideally,'' but without the bio-computer, she just can't make it perfect.'' She even consults the bio-computer when she mixes her paints. And sometimes, she claims, she even talks to it. Yulia Sokolova is not the only adult who has profited from Bronnikov's methods. Lozhnikova, who was disabled to the point where she co! uld just barely move at all, went through the first stage of the Bronnikov method training, and in just three weeks she ``came back to life,'' as she put it. Then, since she was already a medical specialist, Sokolova began working with Bronnikov, helping others to do what she had done. She says that in the three years since that time, about 3,500 people have gone through the training. Sokolova tells about a group of 30 visually disabled children who were able to complete Stages 1 through 3 of the Bronnikov Method in three months. ``They all improved their regular seeing ability by at least 50 percent,'' says Dr. Lozhnikova, ``and every child achieved `mind vision' or `radar seeing.' They all can now both see and read.'' The Stages of the Bronnikov Method There are 18 stages that people go through in developing supernormal abilities using the Bronnikov method. Here is a description of the first five stages: Stage 1. Developing t! he ability not to get sick and tired. Stage 2. Developing photo memory and the ability to see oneself from inside on a bio-computer screen. Stage 3. Developing the ability to read and ``see'' one's surroundings with eyes closed. Stages 4, 5. Higher education (college level) in the following fields: a specialist in human life and health diagnosis -- also able to make corrections; a specialist in businesses diagnosis and commercial and financial risks; a psychologist; a specialist in exploring thin-matter world geography; Bronnikov method teacher. Each stage takes ten 2-hour sessions. Bronnikov Method Sample Exercises The Key to Superconsciousness, a documentary about Bronnikov by Igor Shadhal, shows some basic exercises for Stage 1 of the Bronnikov method. Here are two of them: Start rubbing your hands. Be aware that you are activating the two centers in your left and right brain which correspond to the two hands. Now stop ru! bbing, and slowly move hands apart 5 or 6 inches. Do you feel something between the hands? Maybe a tension? Perhaps a palpable warmth? Be aware that this feeling is happening in your brain. There is an inter-neuronal connection between two centers in your brain. For this you need a partner. One of you is going to be the ``teacher'' and the other the ``student.'' Stand with your open hands facing each other's at a distance of from 3 to 7 inches. Now, make and feel an energetic contact between the palms of your hands. If you are playing the part of teacher, make passes with hands and feel the energy. As the student, just remain still and focus on feeling it. Gradually, make the distance bigger -- up to from 3 to 5 feet. After the energetic contact can be felt at this greater distance, the teacher uses both hands to ``move the energy in a loving manner'' from the bottom upwards. After, both teacher and student share their sensations and ex! periences with the exercise. How Far Can We Go? ``We see that our organism possesses great abilities,'' Bronnikov says. ``And we all know that our mind uses only 4 to 5 percent of our brain. Simple and comprehensive exercises return powerful results. The main result is in the brain development and expansion. We possess knowledge on superconscious functions, and we give students knowledge that allows them not to get sick. What we are doing isn't supposed to replace medicine. We want to give the medical profession a new instrument.'' The idea that everyone might be able to learn to access inner vision holds immense possibility and hope. Can we even imagine what the world might look like if we all could ``see''?
