A message, an information, an idea, an opinion, a new attitude or whatever it is, I f it could be “injected” in your brain without your conscious knowledge about it ?…Oh God, what a mess it will make in this world.
If it is a reality, you can make others think what you want them to think! you can make others love whom you want them to love!!…But is it a reality? Is it possible in real time? My answer is a Big Yes !! (I am not an advocate for pseudosciences and I don’t want to exaggerate things). Lets see how and why.
Brain As The Hard Disk And The Mind As The Operating System
Even though mind is nothing but a property of brain, most often it work as a different entity. You can consider your brain as your computer hard disk where you save all the data and mind as the operating system (windows or linux, whatever it is) . It is funny to note that even the operating system is stored in your hard disk as the mind is in the brain.
If you are using windows (i haven’t yet experienced vista) you can not make a folder with the name “con” or a file with a name starting with a dot(.). But your hard disk can still store such a windows-impossible file and folder provided that you need to make them bypassing windows, say using windows hacking virus.
In the same way certain information can not be stored in your brain because your mind filter it. If I tell you that I am an alien who can fly mind will identify this information as a lie and will not feed it into your brain. Here we need a brain virus to feed such information to anyone’s brain. Subliminal messages are such viruses that that hack your mind and store strange information in to your brain.
Subliminal Messages Are The New Generation Brain Virus
Brain washing, repeated lying, and a lot of similar simple methods were practiced for centuries to change someone’s opinion and attitudes. Counseling is also, even though positive aspect of it, is a trivial brain hacking method. But subliminal messages are different. They hack your brain literally.
You might have heard of certain “dangerous websites” that contain a unresponsive javascript that will keep your operating system busy with loading that page while it insert some viruses into your computer without getting noticed by the already busy system.
Subliminal messages too work in the same way. The idea is that if a new information appear to your eye or ear without having a conscious notice of it, it will not be filtered by your mind, whatever foolish the information be. They will make their attackwhen your operating system- the mind is busy with hearing music watching films or even during lazy-don’t-care times.
Where Can You Find Such Subliminal Brain Viruses
Everywhere! along with TV programs, music CDs, films, newspapers, magazines, books and even with ringtones and wallpapers!! Some people make SBVs (subliminal brain viruses) to spread their opinion or to advertise their product, still others use it for terrorism.
If a message “coca cola is a divine drink” is flashed on the screen while you watch a film, obviously for a short time so that you will not consciously notice it, it get registered in your brain. Thereafter you will feel coca cola is a divine drink even though you know it is not!! (sorry, that was a little bit exaggeration. actually you will not get such a feeling at the first time itself. You need to get exposed to it many times)
Another set of SBVs connect a commersial product with sex (either with the word ’sex’ or with any image that can arouse sex). That will help that product to get imprinted in our brain as the sex is printed there naturally.
Real Life Examples: Pepsi, Marlbolo…Oh What A Hell Is it?
You can see that international companies are using subliminal messages in their ads and brand names. Doesn’t the word pepsy looks like sexy and that may be the reason for people to have craze for pepsy while they respect google as it sound like bible. Have you ever noted that yahoo is different even though that too is a search engine? (your subjective feelings may be different from mine, because the set of SBVs those have infected my brain will be different from yours).
Please see the photo shown at the begining of this article
See if you can find the word ’sex’ on these pepsi bottles?
The word sex is connected to various pleasurable things in your brain. Mind will associate anything relate to sex with the word sex and its related pleasures. Pepsi is no way related to sex and naturally our mind will not associate it with sex. So Pepsi use the SBV trick to hack in to the brain and get associated with sex and hence to get the sales up! …Oh what an evil trick!!
Can you find the hidden male genital on the Marlboro man’s face
May be they have introduced this ad to increase sales among homosexual men. I have read more about marlbolo SBVs on subliminal world website
Our Brain Is Full Of Worms And Viruses. Is There An Antivirus?
No not yet. Everyday our brain get infected with adwares, spywares and viruses. But we don’t have a spysweeper or brain avg yet! But the happy news is that unlike computer viruses which continue doing harm till they get quarantined or unlike the real micro viruses which reproduce extensively, the subliminal viruses get deactivated or forgetted in the brain over time.
But Some SBVs Will Are Use ful Too. They Can Make You A Winner
If the subliminal message was something like “you are intelligent” or “you are a winner” , definitely that will help you. Such messages are available for sale in various websites. I know a guy who brought such a audio clip. It was a hit music to divert the attention with an embedded subliminal sound saying “you are great”. But on a close analysis we could find that there was one more subliminal message asking him to buy more audio clips from their website!!
