Answer 7

Books? The KEY to all knowledge lays in you harnessing the power of your dreamtime to work for you.

What do you really seek when you seek knowledge? The Truth in things.

use this technique called "programming your sleep to know the truth" to know the truth to any question you have in your heart. Try it, it works.

This is how you do it.

You must ASK your question outloud: Just like this:

"I WISH TO KNOW THE TRUTH: IS E = MC SQUARED"?

Then the most important part is to go to sleep and you will get the answer in the form of a dream that night.

If you use this technique you can know everything without consulting books. Just take notes when you wake up!
