A scientist takes a peek
The first scientist who came to Laredo, Texas, to investigate the research that Silva was doing was Dr. J.W. Hahn, director of the Mind Science Foundation in San Antonio, Texas.

Through Dr. Hahn, many more scientists became interested in the pioneering research into the mind and human potential. Mind Science Foundation was founded by millionaire oil man Tom Slick Sr. It was Mr. Slick who asked Dr. Hahn to check out Silva's work. He took back a very favorable report. In fact, Dr. Hahn took the first step that led to Jose Silva's mind training system being taught to the public for the very first time. Here's how it happened:
More results than university researchers got
After Dr. Hahn's visit to Laredo, he called Dr. N.E. West, the head of the Department of Psychology at Wayland Baptist in University in Plainview, Texas, and arranged for him to visit Laredo and inspect Silva's findings.
Dr. West was impressed. Even though he had visited the laboratories of Dr. J.B. Rhine at Duke University on two occasions, he said that he had never seen so much valid scientific work done on ESP
A very successful visit
That led to an invitation by Dr. West for Silva to come to Plainview and present a lecture to the psychology students at the college.
The visit was so successful that Dr. West told his friend Dord Fitz, an art professor in nearby Amarillo, that he should invite Silva to come speak to his art students.
When several of the art students expressed an interest in learning Silva's techniques, Fitz suggested that Silva come teach a class in Amarillo.
More than 80 students attended that first Silva course. Even before they had finished their training, they were telling Mr. Silva that their relatives and friends were also interested, so Silva scheduled another class.
Word continued to spread by "word of mouth" until eventually it was being offered in more than 100 countries worldwide, in 29 different languages, and millions of people were benefitting.
