Re: your own bullshit detector

Hi Rex

This was a great peace of text, but still, I wouldn't mind to learn
how to install this special "your own bullshit" detector. So if
possible . . .??? Tell me.

: Dear George,
:
: I find some reason for caution in what you related - in that I
mean, as I
: understand your description you thought you were installing a
'warning
: machine' but didn't get clear signals in terms of gongs, which you
said you
: must reinstall and that somehow you must have got the submodalities
V & or K
: unconsciously. Doesn't sound like you installed one. Instead it
sounds like
: you relied on your own common sense and insight and wisdom to
assist another
: person. Which I think is marvelous!!!  But I have trouble with the
concept
: of 'warning machine' - a device used on other people.
:
: For these reasons - when I teach DHE we used a bullshit detector.
That is a
: device installed so that when an individual starts conning oneself
into less
: than productive thinking about oneself a signal goes off to tell or
instruct
: the person to stop bullshitting oneself. That is the purpose of the
machine
: - not to have a signal go off when others bullshit - which some
people make
: the mistake when the consider the concept of a bullshit detector.
It is to
: detect one's own bullshit not someone else's.
