    Dear Amberlyn,

    >> Is 40 repetitions of our affirmation requisite, even that Bardon
    seems to
    give us a choice of making a cord with 30-40 markers? Or does 40 relate
    to
    a mystical meaning, such as found with Mem? Or would a number within
    this
    range, and meaningful to the practitioner, work as well? Or, am I
    looking
    for meaning where there is none <g>? <<

    The specific number 40 does carry with it an important degree of
    symbolism. 4 is the number of stable manifestation and 10 is the number
    of physicality. Furthermore, as you noted, 40 is the numerical value of
    the Hebrew Letter Mem. Mem is the Mother Letter of Water and on the
    Hebrew Tree, it connects Netzach (the lower, instinctual emotions) with
    Hod (the lower, rational intellect). In other words, it is the perfect
    symbolic number for use with auto-suggestive re-programming of the
    subconscious mind.

    BUT, none of this is crucial in terms of the effectiveness of your
    auto-suggestion practice! ;-) THE important thing is that you repeat
    your affirmation quite a few times, 40 times being a good number of
    times. It's also important that you do it without having to
    simultaneously keep conscious count of how many times you've repeated
    it -- hence the string of knots/beads.

    The factor of personal or universal significance that you attribute to
    the specific number of repetitions you choose, gives your
    auto-suggestion practice an extra added boost, but it is not a crucial
    ingredient. So if 36 repetitions is more significant to you than 40,
    then go for 36 and get the most out of this boost that you can.

    My best to you,
    :) Rawn Clark
