# The World as an Illusion. Мир как иллюзия

Андрей Тихомиров

We are shaped by social factors, but the impact of external sources on the human brain is expanding. The world appears as a kind of illusion that can be changed, but in the interests of an extremely narrow part of the world population and if it brings a certain benefit to this closed group. Мы сформированы социальными факторами, но воздействие внешних источников на мозг человека расширяется. Мир предстает как некая иллюзия, которую можно изменить, но в интересах крайне ограниченной части населения мира и если это принесет определенную пользу этой замкнутой группе.

## Arsenal of brain effects

Radio – TV – computer – hologram, here is the main arsenal of the 20th-21st centuries of forms of influence on human consciousness. The world is an illusion and the task of the oligarchy for all inhabitants of the Earth is to ultimately create their own world of illusions. And we are gradually coming to this. All earthlings have a set of desires, all of them are expressed in a condensed form in toasts when earthlings celebrate something, these are wishes for health, happiness, success, luck, wealth, security, etc. The set is approximately the same for everyone, someone, of course, wants to become a famous person, someone – rich, someone – to have many wives-mistresses, to receive pleasure and enjoyment, etc. And all this gradually becomes, as it were, feasible. The German idealist philosopher Hegel proclaimed the absolute identity of being and thinking. And his ideas are gradually being realized! Modern technologies and the latest developments make it possible to do this.

We are all subject to hypnosis every day. Yes, yes, you too. Unless you are one of those rare people who never watches television. The majority of humanity, however, falls into a habitual trance every night, staring at the flickering screen of the "box". Millions of gullible viewers are subjected to hidden hypnosis every day, imperceptibly influencing that part of their subconscious called the "collective unconscious". Every commercial influences your health and behavior. We eat, drink, dress and make love with an eye on what we see and hear. Television has the power to lull the mind into a state of heightened suggestibility, influencing our behavior. In the United States of America, billions of dollars are spent every year to sell us products that we could do without. Our lulled minds hardly protest when we obediently consume potions that even dumb animals run away from: sleeping pills, fat burners, tonics, sedatives, painkillers. Television is capable of tuning the human brain to expect pain even when the viewer seems to be feeling fine.

"Moneybags" – advertisers know the basic principles of hypnosis very well:

1. Relaxation.

2. Concentration.

3. Suggestion.

It's all very simple. Relaxed and concentrated in front of the TV screen, we absorb all the information suggested to us. At such moments, we are extremely vulnerable, since our consciousness goes into a hypnotic state. It is also called the "alpha state", since it is caused by alpha waves of the cerebral cortex.

Have you noticed how often advertising is repeated? Another principle of hypnosis is used here. Repetition enhances the effect of suggestion, eventually reducing human behavior to the level of nervous system reflexes. An action or deed repeated so often that it becomes ingrained in the human character and is reproduced almost automatically.

Day and night, newspapers, billboards, radio and television poison our consciousness with harmful habits. Weakening our inner defenses, they control our behavior. The average person spends fifteen years of his life in front of the TV screen, listening to every word with childish simplicity. And day after day, trained voices, ringing with sincerity, compete with each other to assure us that the pills and potions they present to us will cure anyone of all sorts of diseases. Statistical studies show that American pharmaceutical companies spend billions of dollars annually to sell their goods. The gullible consumer is forced to take medications that relieve headaches and nervousness, calm and tonic, sleeping pills and regulate weight. Pseudo-scientists, social scientists and psychological consultants conduct experiments on our psyche, and as a result, we lose control over our own desires. Everything we could perfectly well enjoy life without – alcohol, cigarettes and fatty foods – becomes simply necessary for us. The human instinct for self-preservation gradually becomes powerless against the daily attacks of commercials.

The defense of our feelings is weakened by various psychological techniques that the mind is unable to recognize; hypnotic influence on the subconscious level forms our tastes and habits, sometimes harmful, and we do not even suspect it.

Fortunately, our own brain can help us change. Habits can be controlled – after all, human behavior is quite malleable. With the help of hypnosis, people can “tune” themselves to health and success. This method is commonly called “positive programming.” Thanks to it, the mind, tired of constant fears and doubts, becomes fresh and renewed. In this way, we can get rid of acquired harmful behavioral stereotypes, stepping onto a higher level of internal development.

## Use of hypnosis

Hypnosis helps us understand who we are and what we want from life. Moreover, it is irreplaceable on the way to achieving our goals. You will stop being an obedient puppet in the hands of fate, you will get the opportunity to stand firmly on your feet, learn self-control and will be able to stop any attempts to manipulate you. The tentacles of habits wrap around our souls – it is time to free ourselves from their grip forever. Holography is widely used in methods of influencing people – a method of recording, reproducing and transforming wave fields based on wave interference. It was proposed by D. Tabor in 1948. Holography allows you to obtain an image of objects. A "reference" wave from the same light source is directed to the photosensitive layer simultaneously with the "signal" wave scattered by the object. The picture that appears during the interference of these waves, containing information about the object, is recorded on the light-sensitive surface. It is a hologram. When a hologram or its section is irradiated with a reference wave, a three-dimensional image of the object can be seen. A hologram is applicable to waves of any nature and any frequency range; it is used in various fields of technology, in particular for pattern recognition, information coding, in acoustics, etc.

Almost everyone, even the very poor, has a TV at home. Billions of people watch TV regularly. The secret of such a rapid spread of this means of information is as follows: firstly, TV programs are the easiest to perceive (a book, a newspaper require a minimum of literacy); secondly, they create the effect of personal presence at an event; thirdly, according to psychologists, up to 40% of all sensory information about the surrounding world, about oneself, a person receives through sight. The visual series usually does not require verbal or written description. The information received by the viewer is largely holistic, figurative in nature, and therefore quite accessible. Television allows, through advertising, to shape not only the tastes and needs of the population, but also its attitude to all political problems. The elite knows this and actively uses television to level consciousness in accordance with its standards.

The appeal of television information is primarily associated with the illusion of personal participation, presence at an event. People have become accustomed to sitting in a comfortable chair at home, watching programs where politicians of all stripes discuss the future of countries, regions, develop various thoughts, ideas, but within the framework of bourgeois democracy, that is, beneficial to some extremely insignificant part of the earthlings – the oligarchs. Television has brought the whole world closer to people, made accessible what seemed fantastic just a few decades ago. In other words, television as a powerful mass medium has given people the opportunity to directly see events, "be on the spot" of the event, empathize with their participants in the dramatic, tragic collisions of human existence. However, this opportunity to inform the masses is used in a society of pure gain purely in the political interests of the ruling classes, commercial advertising and acts as one of the leading instruments of spiritual manipulation of the consciousness of the masses.

The methods of this manipulation are quite simple, but quite effective. A significant part of modern television programs, as well as other media: the Internet, radio stations, all kinds of mobile applications, etc., which are under the powerful control of oligarchic groups, headed by the secret services, are of an entertaining nature and are mainly designed for emotional perception. Therefore, program directors place special emphasis on manipulating illusions: promoting the possibility of getting rich, making good money, achieving unexpected success. This is done not only with the help of films, commercials, but also carefully selected documentaries. With the help of this “dream machine”, illusions occupy an important place in a person’s thinking, creating an ephemeral idea of the society in which the viewer lives: a society of supposedly “equal opportunities”, truly “free” and “open”. Disappointed, often disadvantaged people cling to the illusory idea of “prosperity” as a last hope to escape from need and despair. These techniques are designed to create more and more new myths about the modern world of pure profit – capitalism, in a new “sparkling” package, which has allegedly not exhausted its potential resources. Hired ideologists and servants of oligarchs have created a special pseudo-culture, where astrologers, religious and political "truth-tellers" constantly appear, "foaming at the mouth" proving or refuting something, but this is nothing more than shaking the air, calculated to stupefy the masses, to dull their public consciousness. And this "stupefaction" is carried out to a large extent with the help of television.

The main attack is on the brain! The main goal of the oligarchic media is to make slaves of people, whose brain is "clogged" with all sorts of illusions! The brain is the anterior (highest) section of the center, nerve, system of vertebrates and humans, located in the cranial cavity; the material substrate of higher nervous activity. Along with the endocrine system, it regulates all vital functions of the body. It consists of the cerebral hemispheres, the diencephalon, midbrain, hindbrain and medulla oblongata. The sections located between the diencephalon and spinal cord form the brainstem. The brain has reached its highest development in humans (it weighs an average of 1,375 g in men and 1,275 g in women). The human brain: 1 – cerebral hemisphere; 2-4 – diencephalon: 2 – thalamus, 3 – epithalamus, 4 – hypothalamus; 5 – corpus callosum; 6—pituitary gland; 7-8—midbrain: 7—quadruple, 8—cerebral peduncles; 9-10—hindbrain: 9—pons, 10—cerebellum; 11—medulla oblongata; 12—fourth ventricle.

The television manipulation technique is associated with the effect of discussion, comparison and struggle of different points of view. With the help of this technique, the illusion of impartiality and objectivity of information is created. A rehearsed discussion or even a heated verbal altercation (this is a show-performance, specially played out for gullible viewers) creates the appearance of a struggle of opinions, a comparison of positions, etc. Quite often, entire verbal battles are played out, the purpose of which is to prove that, supposedly, this is real democracy, since the opponents represent mutually exclusive views and opinions, but this is only an imitation, everything has long been decided behind the scenes by the largest oligarchs. Ultimately, the bickering in speeches shown in the oligarchic media, opposition figures whose point of view does not fully agree with the official one, is nothing more than a carefully prepared political performance, where today's words mean nothing for tomorrow's practical activities. As one American journalist noted during the next presidential elections, from what Reagan said “on the eve of his election, he was consistent only in relation to his promises to the Pentagon,” while everything else for him was the necessary propaganda tinsel of the election campaign.
