"Although I must trace to my mother's influence whatever inventiveness I possess, training he gave me must have been helpful. It comprised of all sorts of exercises, as guessing one another's thoughts, discovering defects of some form of expression, repeating long sentences or performing mental calculations. These daily lessons were intended to strengthen memory and reason and especially to develop critical sense, and undoubtedly were very beneficial." (2) I will refer to this autobiography frequently throughout this book as I try to show many things about Tesla and myself or his father that are related with my own experiences in life.

Confirmation of my research is all over work of Tesla. This Guyot in following quote is a Hibernian like Bernard of Clairvaux. Part of Cathar treasures has to do with their trade to Americas and I have tried to provide many proofs of that in other books. The Huguenots brought to America by prime Merovingian Astor in a later time are also connected to remains of Cathars after bulk of them were wiped out in a Roman Crusade of mania and power. I suspect Tesla’s father was related to Bogomil remnants of Cathars and their Luciferian or Alumbrados Jesuit lineage. He was a Serbian-Orthodox priest of great renown and teaching techniques he used with Tesla and his brother are techniques of Bairds or Bards who were called Troubadors in Southern France during Cathar era.

Tips:

Only way to learn Chinese characters is to memorize them, practice writing a character on paper until you remember it. Start from easy ones, which also include all strokes, for example, 一(one), 十(ten), 中(middle), 山(mountain), 上(above), 火(fire), 河(river), 入(enter).

Rather than writing one word many times before doing next one, write each word once or twice then go through whole list again until you've done required number of repetitions. This will reinforce new words more firmly in your memory.

Read Chinese newspapers, booklets and books found at your local library or Chinese market

Watch movies or TV programs with Chinese subtitles, it is a great way to learn Chinese speaking and writing at same time in a simulated real-life scenario.

Use post-it notepaper to write down characters and stick them on objects you are about to learn.

Write vocabulary words using index or flash cards on one side with definition on other side.

Use your imagination by linking shape of new word by first glancing to something you are familiar with. Play vocabulary by creating a 3-column vocabulary sheet with characters, pinyin, and English definitions. Fold paper with only one or two columns showing and then take practice written tests.

After a while, you will notice that many characters have elements in common, either related to meaning or pronunciation. Note common elements and use them to help you remember new characters.

Take advantage of free learning Chinese resources online. If you can memorize about 1,000 - 2,000 characters, you will feel comfortable with reading and writing modern Chinese.

Step IV: Grammar?

Learn basic grammar, but try not to worry and be constrained by rules. After all, languages are spoken as a way to express meaning.

The basic grammar elements are almost identical with different languages; however, sequence may be different. Pay particular attention to differences and practice on them.

The most important points on learning new foreign languages:

Don't be afraid to make mistakes. Being self-conscious can be an obstacle in learning a language. Remember, most people are willing to helping you rather than laughing at you.

Don't be discouraged by difficulties at first attempt. Practice, practice, and practice! you will be amazed by your own progress!

Be persistent. Allocate a set time on studying and follow schedule. Studying a little every day is more effective than studying for a long period at once.
