Spiritual Weight Loss
I grew up as a fairly typical middle-class American kid and inherited the spiritual
worldview dominant at the time: that we live in the cold, cruel world of
insufficiency and competition, where we have to struggle and fight against forces
out there in the world to ensure our survival and comfort. Like most of my peers,
my future was planned out for me: grow up, go to college, get a job, and then
spend the rest of my life devoting the vast majority of my time and energy to a
career I did not really enjoy but that paid the bills. Magic and miracles were to be
found only in books and movies, or thousands of years in the past. They certainly
didn’t seem to have any place in my ‘normal’ life. I couldn’t have guessed that I
would later find the link between computer software and miraculous instant
healings.
Like many kids, I had a passion for computers and video games, and I can still
remember the first time that I played a computer game. It was the late 1970s,
and my friend’s father was a professor at a local university, so he had a computer
terminal at home that dialed into the mainframe on campus. Because the
computer was a limited resource and games were given the lowest priority, we
had to wait until the load on the system was low enough that we could log into
the game. I remember eagerly rushing over to my friend’s house in the afternoon
after school, and waiting until enough computing resources were free so that we
could play games on the mainframe. We played the classic game Adventure as
often as we could, and I was hooked! Of course, at the time I had no idea how
important my experience with computer games would be to later decoding the
Formula for Miracles and instant healing.
Because programming computers seemed to be the one thing that I was
genuinely interested in that I could also make a living at, it was an obvious focus
for me. I taught myself how to program and spent a lot of time building and fixing
computers and writing my own games. (I think I may be the only boy who ever
asked for an assembly language reference book for his 13th birthday.) After high
school I enrolled at MIT and majored in computer science, where I thrived in the
intensely competitive environment.
