The De-Conditioning of a Conditioned Mind
English book, p. 227
By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan
The De-Conditioning of a Conditioned Mind is a fact that everyone is a case of conditioning. But Professor Watson’s finding related only half of the truth. He discovered the law of conditioning, but he failed to discover the law of de-conditioning. According to his research, everyone is bound to live in a conditioned state. It is everyone’s fate and no one can escape from it. But it was certainly an unnatural statement. It is a fact that everyone is subject to conditioning but it is also a fact that every form of conditioning can be reversed. Conditioning is a phenomenon of thinking and it can be changed by counter-thinking. Thinking and counterthinking are both well within the capacity of the mind. The modern computer is a small mechanical model of man’s mind. Everyone knows that a computer can delete anything that you want it to delete. If you feed some item into the computer, and then you want to delete it; this can be done, simply by touching a small key. Man’s mind is an inconceivably large model of the computer. If a small mind can delete an item without failure, how can a big model not do the same job? The de-conditioning of a mind also has a small touch-button. This touch-button is a simple phrase of just three words: ‘I was wrong.’ Say with complete sincerity: ‘I was wrong’ and you can delete any type of conditioning within a second. Watson himself is a proof that environmental conditioning can be reversed in the later period of one’s life. As a matter of fact, Watson first de-conditioned himself, consciously or unconsciously, and only then was he able to discover the phenomenon of conditioning.
