Hi,
I'll try to answer a few of your questions about Silva. All "caseworking" ...
all Silva techniques in fact, except for two ... are done at "level" meaning an
alpha 10 cps brain wave state. There are many different techniques for getting
various types of data and more techniques for zeroing in on detail.
In Silva the student creates a "lab." This is a mental construct. You stock
the lab with file cabinets and materials that you will need. You create a
comfortable chair in this lab from which you work. You work with a mental
screen in caseworking onto which you project the target. This is usually, but
not always a person. We need to know only the age, sex, first name or initial,
and general location of the target. You also have both a male and female
"counselor" who will assist you if asked.
In the case of a person, you quickly scan down the body from head to foot in
three passes. Whatever areas that catches your attention are the areas that you
explore more closely. With a person it may be a health situation or it may be a
psychic or mental condition that is bothering them. In other case, you can tap
into the mental processes of the person...determine what he/she is like, how
they think, etc. In Silva we are taught to 'enter' metals and non-living
objects and to enter animal or vegetable life as well as the human body. We see
the organs involved often down to the cellular level. We have points of
reference which are unique to the individual doing the scanning. For instance,
I see active cancer as a large black "C" and a cured cancer or one in remission
as a gray "C." Other practitioners would have different points of reference.
In addition to the "C" in a cancer patient I will usually see a cloudy dark area
of involvement. This can be entered to get more detail.
You learn to go to level instantly so that a scan can be quite rapid.
I worked on quite a few today, incidentally. I caseworked four people and a
RV'd a building. I also 'see' things in visual images...often symbols...and the
trick there is to know what the symbols mean. For example, today I THOUGHT I
was seeing a symbol. I was in an ICQ chat and the person involved was halfway
around the world. I saw a male hand holding a tall glass with a handle on it.
The glass was narrow and pointed at the bottom and widened like a vase at the
top. In it was a disgusting-looking frothy green liquid. I told him what I was
seeing...and he said, "That sounds like the green apple frothy Slurpee I had
awhile ago. It was in a glass shaped like that." So much for esoteric symbols,
huh? :-)

If I remember right, Skip Atwater writes in his book _Captain of
My Ship, Master of My Soul_ something to the effect that the
major contribution of RV will be to help people realize that they
are more than their physical bodies. My experience has been that
psi is a means of opening to opportunities for personal development,
but is not an end in itself. My sense is that undertaking
personal development for the sake of developing psi abilities is
somewhat backward, sort of like going to church so you can sing in
the choir. But I guess a truly zealous evangelist would say that
as long as it gets you in the door, that's fine. (Say "amen!"
brothers and sisters!) In fact, now that I think about it, I can
see that that is what has been happening for me.
