Q.:Inhisbo3k,"Battlefor theMind,"Dr.William Sargantexplainsinphysiologicaltermsthetechniquesofindoctrination, conversionand"brain. washing,"basinginterpretationsontheclassical experimentsofPavlov.

R.:Pavlovfoundbyexperimentsthatbycausing mutualinteractionofbraincellshecouldproduceacquiredor"conditioned"reflexes.Andhewassatisfied withapurelyphysiological orempiricalexplanationof theprocess.

Anotherprofessorofphysiology,however,Dr.John Grayson,insistsinhisbooks, "Nerves,BrainandMan" (1961),thatthisisnot enough.Man,hesays,isnot 'amobile,meaninglesshunk ofassortedchemicals,"with anelectronicbrainasakind ciradio-valve.

Thereisamysterious"I," the'invisibleman"inthe machine,althoughscience cannotgiveahintasto whereheexistsinthe system. Thephilosopherwillspeak ofanintelligentanimating principle;thepsychologistof the"psyche,"intendingthe "mind"asdistinctfrom brain,andasthesourceof ahostofconsciousandunconsciousactivities;the theologianwillspeakofthe soul,unique,individually created,havingsurvival value,andabletobetransformedbygrace.

Butallwillemphasisethe fundamentalunityofthe wholeman,bodyandsoul, sothathisintellectualand spiritualcharactercannotbe separatedfromhisphysical character.

CONSCIOUSNESSAND "BRAIN-WASHING"

Q.:Apartfromdetailsof theoreticalmechanisms,it appearsestablishedthat mostnormalpersons-to excludethementallyillwhensubjectedtocertain techniques,canbemade toundergoradicalchanges inpolitical,socialandreligiousbeliefs.

Q.:Paradoxically,suchcone versionsareachievedall themoreradilywhenthe subjecttriestoresistby anexerciseofhiswillpower;andasuccessful indoctrinationmayeven bepermanent.

R.:Thequestionofpermanencyisopentodoubt, althoughitwouldbedifficulttodisproveitspossibility. Butthatresistanceofthe willmaycontributetowards thesuccessofindoctrination isquiteintelligible.For compulsiveinfluencesmay beaggravatedbyanxiety andfearinregardtothem; andbydesperateeffortsto avoidthem,which.only focusesattentionstillmore uponthem.

GRACEANDTEMPTATION

Q.:How,then,doesthisaccordwiththeChurch's teachingthatGod'sgraceisalwayssufficientto allowanormalpersontoovercometemptation?

R.:Thatreferstopreservationfromanyvoluntaryconsenttoanythingopposedtothemorallaw. Itdoesnotmeanfreedomfrompersecution,nor frombeingbrokenbyphysicalormentaltrials.

Theearlymartyrsovercametemptationsto apostasyandadenialoftheirFaith;butthatdid notsavethemfrombeingthrowntowildbeasts orbeingbatteredintounconsciousness,Thething isthatthegraceofGodenabledtheminteriorlyto avoidanyvoluntaryconsenttowhattheyknew tobewrong.

Thirtyyearsago,whenhe madehisfirstworldtourin thecauseofthosesuffering fromleprosy,helearned thattherewereabouttwelve millionpeoplesuffering fromthediseaseinthe world.Atpresentthereare 15,000,000,thegreaterpart ofwhomstillliveunder atrociousconditions.
