Dear Friend,
If you want to greatly increase your reading speed and comprehension, this may be the most exciting message you ever read.
Why? Because this is
the first and most exciting development
in mind technology to help you to read faster and increase your
comprehension
I purchased the first book on speed reading during my B.Tech. education because I was a really slow reader in English (and Hindi, too). You'll be surprised to know that I had to struggle very much to learn English. I had studied in Hindi medium up to high school. On he way to join BITS Pilani for B.E., I met on Mr P V Reddy at Chirawa railway station. I started talking with Mr Reddy in Hindi. He said, "I don't know Hindi". I was surprised because I had never before met anyone who did not speak Hindi. As I had not spoken in English with anyone and was not at all confident in English, I said, "I don't know English".
Since I had little exposure to English, I read very slowly. To learn English, someone suggested me to read novels and gave me R K Narayan's novel "The Guide". I used to read so slowly, it took me 2 months to finish reading it.
Do you realize that
Because of such experience in my own life,
I very keenly understand the value of
reading faster with good comprehension.
You may have already used my famous course Raj Bapna's Mind Power Study Techniques and may want to know what is the difference between that course and Kennedy Speed Reading package.

This course is dedicated to John F Kennedy, one of the greatest American presidents. Kennedy took a speed reading course to help him read more in less time.
Here is description on page 62 from the book "Camelot at Dawn" titled "The Speed Reader":
All his life, Jack Kennedy [Author's note: John Fitzgerald Kennedy was also known as Jack Kennedy, JFK, and John F Kennedy] devoured newspapers and magazines. Here he is shown in the yard on Sunday morning, May 9, absorbed in the May 7, 1954 issue of the Christian Science Monitor. Suero photographed him reading the same paper over breakfast before starting out for his Senate office.
JFK developed a phenomenal ability to read material quickly. For several weeks in the spring of 1954, Jack and Bobby had been traveling together to Baltimore to attend a speed reading class at the John Hopkins University's evening college. Professor Elton Y Mears taught the class, entitled, "How to Read Better and Faster." It met Tuesday evenings 8:30 - 10:30, and the brothers had to drive more than an hour each way to attend it. This is a course for the normal reader who wishes to improve his reading ability.? Read the catalog description. "It aims to increase reading skills, to stimulate greater interest in reading, and to make the individual a more alert and responsive reader."

Soon, you will learn to read much faster than you
currently do. It is a proof that you always had the ability
to read much faster, that you always had the capacity within
you, but you simply did not know how to use it. I am simply
helping you to discover your own hidden ability.

Now, let me tell you about the
audio programs:

Kennedy Speed Reading DAPSTM
MindTech Program
DAPSTM (Dual Auto Peripheral Suggestions) MindTech uses two separate stories.
You hear a different story in each ear in my voice that makes artful use of language, neuro linguistic programming, Ericksonian techniques to immediately produce measurable relaxation in you while building positive, powerful, empowering beliefs that produce dramatic breakthrough results for you. I load the tales with variety of powerful suggestions that are best for students, in such artful way that the suggestions remain in indirect terms and seemingly are simply part of the story, so they go unnoticed. And, because the conscious mind can at best focus on one story at a time, it usually gives up and stops paying conscious attention, and as a result, most of the stories and the empowering messages hidden within them bypass the conscious mind completely, entering the unconscious mind. This is the most powerful method of belief change because it really works and it is effortless on the part of the listener.
The real test of a DAPS CD is not listening to analyze it, but to close your eyes, sit comfortably or lie down, and listen to it and feel the results for yourself:
Does it make you more relaxed than
you have ever been in your life before?
Does it make you feel like you feel just before you fall asleep?
When I ask users these questions, just after they use the mind machine for the first time, they say, "Yes".
This audio program uses the DAPS (Dual Auto Peripheral Suggestions) mind technology to train your body and mind to relax and build positive empowering beliefs to enable you to achieve dramatic improvements in your reading speed and comprehension.
This program is for 30 minutes of which about 14 minutes has voice for powerful DAPS. Initially use it for full 30 minutes and later you may use it for 14 minutes if you want to spend less time.
Would you like to know
How to Use this Program
For best results, use the audio program with this book for 60 days in two ways:
-
Listen to this program once daily while going to sleep. If you fall asleep before 30 minutes, that is okay.
-
Listen to the first 14 minutes of this program twice a week in a waking state (when you can sit comfortably in chair and not fall asleep).
After the initial 60 days, use this program as needed.
In part of the tape, You'll hear two different stories in your two ears. You don't have to focus or try to understand any story. Just relax and let the tape play.
You need to use good quality stereophonic headphones. The headphone that comes with any CD player or MP3 player is usually good.
And, the good news is
You can expect to feel the benefits within one week.
As your body and mind get tuned, and get used to the experience of relaxation and learning in this new way, within a few weeks, you can expect to experience more and more powerful results.
Now, le me tell you more about the second audio program:

Kennedy 7-Minute
Reading AcceleratorTM
This program can be understood as audio equivalent of the Finger Technique.
Just like you use your finger in the Finger Technique to guide your eyes movement across the reading matter, you use the tick-tick sound pattern in this program to guide your eye movement.
Since movement of finger is physical movement, it tends to be slow, and since tick-tick sound pattern requires no physical movement on your part, it can be very fast guide to train your eyes to read fast.
The 7-minute audio program (consisting of five different types of tick-tick sound patterns of 1 minute) is repeated 4 times with some gaps to create 30 minute audio. The CD is for 30 minutes. And,
Here is How to Use this Program
Play the audio program when you are ready to speed read for about 7 minutes.
The 7 minute program consists of five different tick-tick sound patterns of 1 minute each to guide you to accelerate your reading speed followed by rest of 20 seconds each.
Of the five tick-tick sound patterns, the first tick-tick sound pattern is at slowest speed and the fifth one is at fastest speed.
To use this audio program, simply play the audio CD , and read with each tick. With each tick see/read the next group of words. Continue reading for 1 minute and then give rest to your eyes when for 20 seconds. Then read for 1 minute again and take rest for 20 seconds. Repeat this pattern of reading with tick-tick sound pattern for 1 minute 5 times, each time followed by 20 minute rest.
As your reading skills develop more and more, you will begin to see one or more complete lines of printing per tick.
You can use this program in four stages:
- In the beginning of your training, use the Finger Technique, which means you move your finger to the next group of words once per tick.
- Later, stop using the Finger Technique and start using the Vertical Finger Technique, which means you move your finger to next line once per tick and you read much faster.
- Later you can give up the use of even Vertical Finger Technique and read with just tick-tick sound pattern as your guide.
- Finally stop using this audio program and stop using the Vertical Finger Technique. This is your final mastery of the reading skills.
