STUDY GUIDE
Australian, David John Oates, born 1955, founded and developed the
Reverse Speech technology. It has been his full time career since
1984. His research began investigating claims of backward messages
i n rock and roll. He was the first person to document backward
phrases in human speech and has since developed technologies,
theories and procedures to locate, decode and restructure reversed
unconscious messages. David John Oates has full and sole ownership
of all rights pertaining to this technology, intellectual or otherwise.
Such rights go beyond the boundaries of copyright protection and will
be vigorously enforced.
"This may turn out to be a discovery that could turn our knowledge
of languages, and how the mind works with language, into a world
shakerl" Journal of Aust. NLP Society (Dec '87)
"As Oates played back some famous speeches you could hear audible
gasps of recognition in the audience." Dallas Times Herald June '89
"1 believe that his work is of the highest importance, breaking entirely
new ground and with significant implications for the way we
understand and utilize our human capacities for communication ...
David is single minded and relentless in his pursuit of the field he has
developed." Dr. Timothy Pascoe, PhD (Cantab.), M.B.A. (Harvard)
"The theory reached the courts in the 1980s ... (however) neither
legal team wanted to put a guy on the stand who would say of
course Stained Class had backward messages, and so does Sesame
Street, and so did the Judge's conversation with his wife that
morning." Discover Magazine (July 1992)

IMPORTANT POINTS
(1) The six hour audio documentary that accompanies this manual contains vivid,
clear audible communicative signals from the unconscious mind. These signals are
in plain English. Due to the verbal nature of the unconscious mind and its apparent
and occasional tendency not to conform to our conscious code of proprietary
language, certain audio examples of reversals, and the accompanying written text,
contain profanity and sexually explicit terminology. The author has chosen to
include some of these examples in this presentation so that the integrity of the
phenomenon, as it occurs in spoken language, will be maintained.
(2) The audio presentation has been compiled from the private research library of
David John Oates and contains hundreds of reversals from a variety of differing
audio sources. The audio quality on the tape series is not consistent. Audio levels
may vary significantly, as well as noise and distortion. The prime concern of this
author has been to present the Reverse Speech technology accurately, and speech
reversals as they actually occur and sound in real life. Therefore acoustical
perfection has been sacrificed in some sections so that reversal and theoretical
integrity can be maintained. [In other words, sections of the recording are not
studio perfect.)
(3) The majority of speech reversals included in this presenation are of excellent
quality. Some reversals, however (approximately 10%), are vague, sometimes
very faint, and hidden amongst audio noise and hiss. They have been included to
challenge your hearing and improve your location abilities.
(5) All examples of reversed dialogue have been shown in text with bold print. The
precise section of forward dialogue where the speech reversal occurred has been
marked with brackets - [ ]. In some reversals, a single word may be imprecise.
These words are separated in the reversal with (brackets).
INTRODUCTION
It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to Reverse Speech. The study manual
and tape series you now have in your possession has been developed after ten
years of research and practical experience with Reverse Speech. They have been
designed to be used in conjunction with each other so that the analytical aspects
of this technology may be presented in simple, easy to follow, steps.
Using actual examples of speech reversals, the tape series takes you through the
technological aspects of the phenomenon, while it begins to give you simple self
use instructions. To take full advantage of this program, I suggest that you listen
to these tapes with headphones on, in a quiet location away from all distractions
and noise, while you follow the steps detailed in the study guide. I suggest
listening to them over and over again until the sounds of Reverse Speech become
almost second nature to you.
The study guide and tapes should become your constant companion as they begin
to teach you the steps you will need to begin experimenting with the technology
yourself. However, they are a guide only. Your success in this process will depend
entirely on your desire to succeed and the amount of time you are willing to
spend. It takes many hours of study and practice to become proficient. Based on
the collective experiences of hundreds of students of Reverse Speech, you should
set yourself a minimum study program of ten hours a week listening to tapes, and
an equal amount of time preparing and studying transcripts.
You must follow the analytical steps detailed precisely. If you try to take short
cuts, or deviate from them, your final results will be inaccuarte at best. If you
spend the time suggested, you can expect to achieve a basic level of proficiency
after about three months of study.
DAVID J. OA ES'
MAIN SECTION
"...the conscious mind is usually reluctant to see or admit the polarity of its own
background, although it is precisely from there that it gets its energy..."
C.G. Jung (Mvsterium Coniunctionisl
2) David Oates, continuing alone, created a media storm and in 1988 he appeared
on many Australian talk shows. The psychotherapeutic and investigative
communities picked up on Oates' work and some initial successes propelled
Reverse Speech onto the international scene.
3) He began to lecture extensively in both Australia and the United States, finally
moving to Dallas Texas in 1989 to establish a permanent research base. His work
quickly spread from there, attracting much academic and media interest, including
CNN's The Larry King Show. Well known lecturer and author, Dr. Larry Dossey
had this to say about Oates' work:
"...1 was utterly fascinated by the possibility that one could decode unconscious
messages from people by playing their speech in reverse ... this is possibly one of
the most important breakthroughs in human communication that has emerged in
recent years ... it certainly would be one of the most stunning pieces of evidence
for the unconscious that has ever been put on the table..."
3) Some of these backward messages are placed intentionally onto the musical
soundtrack as a recording gimmick. Note the example on tape one that contains
an intentional backward message superimposed in the recording studio. Listen to
the example backwards and the hidden message can be heard.
NOTE
Forward speech is conscious and capable of manipulation.
Reverse Speech speaks the truth.
WARNING
There is a high tendency to imagine, or "project", meaningful sounds into
gibberish following a coincidental sound.
1) Every reversal must be checked for syllable count, vowels and consonants.
. 2) Especially note the beginnings and endings of words. Is it a D? or S?
3) These points are of high importance. Always remember them.
4) Every reversal you find must be checked with these points.
5) If one of these points are not met, then the reversal is not documented.
1) The following ten reversals are played, first twice, then an audible interpretation
is given. Without following the script below, try and hear the reversal before the
prompt is given.
You pacify me
You must sin
Sad Momma
Now woman
Now I don't get the gun
Here I am with rubbish
I will miss (the/your?) money
That's so real
You shock with fire
Cry reversals
The following check points have been carefully designed to increase reversal
accuracy. If you follow them carefully, you will greatly reduce the tendency for
imagaination. Another good check is to have several independant people check
your reversals, as well as becoming thoroughly familiar with the list of coincidenal,
sounds found at the back of the Reverse Speech dictionary.
POINTS O F CAUTION
1) Spending a large amount of time listening to tapes backwards has been known
to cause some side affects. This is possibly due to an increased stimulation of
right brain activity. If you begin to notice any of the following symptoms, take a
break for a day or two before resuming tape work. These symptoms are only
temporary and usually pass within one or two weeks.
(1) Increased dream activity, sometimes lucid dreams.
(ii) Sleep walking.
(iii) Emotional irritability.
(iv) Reversals playing over and over in your mind.
(v) Lethargy, drowsiness.
2) Complementarity means that the forward speech and Reverse Speech relate to,
and complement, each other. In complementary relationships ' a reversal can:
(i) Confirm what was said forwards. (Congruent)
(ii) Deny what was said forwards. (Incongruent)
(iii) Add information to what was said forwards. (Expansive)
(iv) Reveal the intent of what was said forwards. (internal)
2) Mirror Image reversals: These reversals are rare. In these cases the last
words of the forward and the last words of the reverse contain exactly the same
words and are, therefore, a mirror image of each other.
"...everything is fine and [we'll see you soon]..."
We'll see you soon
8) Trail and Lead reversals: These reversals are significant, showing the
unconscious mind thinking and planning. They will appear in conversation either
before or after a topic is discussed in forward speech. When they "lead" the
conversation, they can sometimes appear several minutes beforehand. As the
unconscious mind plans the conversation in advance, it is released as a speech
reversal. When they "trail" the conversation (the topic is continued in reverse after
the discussion has ended), it is a clue that this topic is of high importance.
"... fit was just through word of mouth]... "
I have an older sister
NOTE
The previous sampling of reversed dialogue, 9 (iii), is also an example of another
category entitled: Comparative Reversals. Comparative reversals will discuss a
topic that has the same emotions as the forward dialogue. Even though the
forward and reversed may dicusss different topics, the emotional content of the
reverse will be the same as that of the forward. This signifies an emotional
connection (or complementarity) between the forward and reverse - which differs
from the normal connection with the subject matter.
WARNING
Without an understanding of complementarity and categories, reversals
will be misinterpreted or appear to be meaningless.
Reporter: "...you would write your own script [like an actor would basically].."
37. It came up
Analyst: "...[I've got some really clear ones]..."
Now you're 37
2) Multi track recordings, like the one played on this tape, will help you to become
proficient with your reversing machine, as well as teach you to distinguish
between multiple sounds that may be on top of each other.
Printed below is the complete transcript for this practice session. Listen to the
tape first without reading the reversals. Each reversal is indicated on the tape with
a tone. As soon as you hear the tone, reverse the tape and note what you hear.
Notice the definite shift in tonality between the reversal and the gibberish. This is
important "reversal cue" for you to remember. At the end of the forward
conversation each reversal is played individually, at three speeds, with an
explanation given for its assigned validity factor. Note the verbal comments. Their
purpose is to point out the inconsisties in each reversal. This will teach you to
become critical with your own findings.
"...1 declined the invitation to go out [socially with him] and explained to hire that 1
thought it would jeopardize what at the time 1 considered to be a [very good
working relationship]. 1 had a normal social life with other men outside of the
office..."
"...my working relationship [became even more strained] when Judge Thomas
began to use work situations [to discuss sex]. His conversations [were very
vivid] ... "
Helps no one to be naked Validity 2
Have sex with It Validity 4
They let me rave Validity 4
"...because l was extremely [uncomfortable talking about sex] with him at all, and
particularly in such a graphic way, I told him [that 1 did not want to talk about]
these subjects... "
I feel cursed. I've been careful Validity 2
(I will fuck) ..(but?).. No one can doubt It Validity 1 (Not documentable)
"...1 remember him saying that some day I would [have to tell him] the real reason
1 would not go out with him..."
My heart is black Validity 3
"...he also spoke on some occasions of the pleasures he had given .to women
[with oral sex]..."
Asshole Validity 5
"...he said that if 1 ever told anyone of his behavior it would ruin his career. This
was not an apology [nor was it an explanation]. That was his last remark about
the possibility of [our going out], or reference to his behavior..."
The shame of standard is the wound Validity 2
Why no loving Validity 3
Reversed phrases will not always be clear and precise. The following chart has
been prepared, therefore, to provide a standard for documentation and a way to
easily recognize the validity of a reversal. This chart is to be used in conjunction
with the Seven Reversal Check Points shown earlier in this study guide. All
reversals you find must be checked using the check points and assigned a Validity
Factor according to the following criteria.
VALIDITY CHART
Validity Five All seven check points can be heard. The reversal Is.very clear.
"...gibberish - This is an example - gibberish..."
Validity One There are doubts over most of the reversal check points.
"...gibberishThiz iss ab escampeshgibberish..."
WARNING
Do not document any reversals less than validity two.
TRAINING EXAMPLES
3) I'm so full of shit Validity 3. The following reversals can also be heard:
(1) Screwed with this girl Validity 3
(ii) You feel wet Validity 4-5
Conversation Type
High Emotion
Casual, Private
Prepared, Private
Public, Spontaneous
Public, Scripted
NOTES
(i) Reversals will occur at varying rates depending on setting - see chart.
(ii) The "preparedness" of a conversation (pre-thought, repetitive
statements) can be determined by the frequency of reversals.
(iii) Not every sound backwards is a reversal.
Z) There are certain predicatable events in speech that will cause a speech
reversal to be formed. Some of them are:
NOTE
Reverse Speech, like forward speech, is a learned process. Reverse Speech,
however, commences much earlier than forward speech.
1) Four months
"... [yerar, yerarml... "
Mummy, mummy
Note: Australian pronounciation.
2) Seven months
"... [Uga, ahl... "
What's that?
Note: The reversal occurred as the twin reached for the tape recorder.
3) Twelve months
"...[Mum, Baddy lubl..."
Daddy loves Mum
4) Thirteen months
"...[Oooh. Bwup. Daddy]..."
David. Help me
5) Two years
"...[Daddy, Daddy]..."
Here Father, here Father.
"...[1 want a cuddle. 1 want a cuddle]..."
1 love you. 1 love you.
Note: Another reversal occurs on this soundtrack that says: "Loving him."
6) Three years
"...[to make you better]..."
1 hated them
Note: Categories can be clearly seen in speech reversals at this age.
7) Five years
"...Daddy is a [very important man]..."
Man with a beard
S) Eight years
"...1 [never knew that]..."
Daddy never knew
The following reversals occurred during the second birthday party of Twin girls.
The marriage of mother and father was collapsing and both parents were moving
to different cities. The twins had not been told of this event, but the speech
reversals revealed unconscious knowledge, as well as the twins working through
difficult emotions around this forthcoming event. Note how the differing needs of
the twins can be seen in reverse, with Twin One needing support, and Twin Two
trying to offer that support.
REVERSALS IN MUSIC
AN OVERVIEW
1) When tape recordings of speech are played in reverse, three things can be
heard:
(i) Imagined phrases.
(ii) Coincidental sounds.
(iii) Genuine speech reversals.
3) Reverse Speech is complementary in nature. That is: the forward speech and
reverse speech are intricately related and connected to each other. One cannot be
fully understood without the other. Complementary speech relationships can be
divided into several main categories. These include:
4) There are several common areas in forward speech where speech reversals can
occur. These include:
(i) Pauses.
(ii) Stutters.
till) Dialogue alterations.
(iv) Sighs and laughter.
(v) Emotional conversation.
(vi) Slips of the tongue.
(i) "...[we could talk about Miko but that would be sad]..."
Lassie friend, walking out of the door
(ii) "... [soft mutters]..."
I miss my little pony, my little pony, little pony
5) Reverse Speech metaphors are similar to the images of dreams which are also a
reflection of the "thoughts" of the unconscious mind.
6) Reverse Speech metaphors are verbal descriptions of pictures that are currently
being viewed on an unconscious level.
8) Reverse Speech metaphors are like a mirror that describe in pictures the inner
workings of the unconscious mind.
3) Examples
(1) That man is a salesman. He makes money
Structure Operation
(ii) That man is a clutz. He breaks things.
Structure Operation
(iii) Ride the Hawk
Operation Structure
(iv) Serve the woman
Operation Structure
(v) Kill the serpent
Operation Structure
(i) First level speech reversals. These reversals use plain english
and communciate conscious thoughts.

MAIN TRANSCRIPT
Man One: "if we get it to the level of, OK, [what I've been doing is reading a lot
of], how the idea of the unconscious mind came about, cos it was real difficult
and [there were a lot of different things that went on] back in the 16006 [and
1700s and 18006] to finally bring it up to Freud's level. That is what I am looking
at towards the way Reverse Speech is going, so, um, if it's [approached and
delivered in that] manner then I think it has a better chance of acceptance."

or chose not to respond to things."
Your purpose, Dave. Validity 4. External dialogue. Responds to, and remains in
rapport with, the previous reversals.
David: "l use the example of Einstein [all the time]. He flunked high school, wrote
his [theory of relativity out when he was 25] years of age and people didn't even
start listening to him until he was 40."
I feel honorable. Validity 3-4. Expansive. A personal identification with Einstein.

Man One: "I had one [ask me today], she said will you tell me the truth, and 1
want the truth, land I said, well hey] you know if someone tells you they're telling
you [the truth, you probably] don't want to believe them. And she said [I want
you] to tell me if you've ever recorded any of our conversations. 1 said no,

on this]? Mostly, when 1, mostly, mostly when people see stuff in Reverse Speech
that is a real shock, [quote unquote for a better word], it's stuff they have
suspected anyway. I've never yet really found reversals that people have not
suspected on some level to be true. [So the biggest] fear that people throw up at
me is, what if I see some stuff about myself I just can't face? 1 just never, just
don't know. That's never happened to me. It never has. They always know it on

metaphors that are primarily used by the individual. Much can be determined
about a person's personality by the Active Metaphors that they use.
Man Three: I think it's the negative ego talking. It's a bunch of crap."
Man One: "[I think it's the fear oft peeling off the mask to somebody else, or
someone having the ability to peel off the mask. It scares them more than
anything, cos, [you know, you build stuff and cover yourself to a comfort level

OK in the comfort of a psychiatrist's office."
Its silly seeing your heaven. Validity 4. External dialogue. No respect, or ethics, for
the technology.
Man Three: "Oh well, just remember just because you're paranoid [that doesn't
mean] they're not out to get you."
This thing about honor. Near livid. Validity 4. Internal dialogue.
REVERSALS IN ORDER
Reversals may also be analyzed separately from the main dialogue. This can reveal
another perspective on the transcript as the reversals are analyzed as a separate
conversation in their own right. What will usually emerge in this analysis is a
reasonably accurate 'portrayal of underlying interplays, motives and games that
transpired during the conversation - or the conversation behind the conversation.
Man Three: Hide our wolf. (Weakness appears, as reversals discuss woman.)
This is shedding inside. (He is hurting.)
Honey, you hold this sign. (The woman mentioned.)
Love refused me. (This is what is hurting.)
Be no Isis. (An acknowledgement of the situation.)
Man Two: Your seeing the sexist. (Unsure. May be a personal description.)
Woman One: Safe with me. I know when it must be near fertile. (Safe motives.)
Sexual reversals rarely talk about physical, or first level sex, but rather talk about
our need for power, fulfillment and stimulation. This is "Sex" to the unconscious
mind. It is a major theme in Reverse Speech. Sex, Reverse Speech sex, would
appear to be as essential to our being as is eating and breathing. One of the main
functions of the unconscious mind is to create life situations whereby Sex can be
obtained. Anything that is powerful and stimulating can be used as Sex.
SOME_BASIC EXAMPLES
1) Madonna
"...l1 have everything I want, right]..."
I want you to rub my ass
2) Jane Fonda
"...[1'd love to if you'd remove that damn cat]..."
I made that rumor, the show's vulgar
3) David Oates
"...[correlating them up with all the manuscripts and I've done] thousands..."
And I was vixen. p am) the Lord with cum
"..,[is developing] the training manual..."
In love with this
4) Sandra Bernhardt
"...[1 saw her before I left the other night]..."
They pulled out the grass
like a drug addict, you know]..."
Wine, And I love to cum
The drive and need for sex appears in reverse through other common metaphors
like power and money. Frequently the drive for these desires are displayed in
reverse as warfare with the metaphor, Wolf, being symbolized as the warrior who
is fighting the battle of possession. The following example shows a man in the
process of courtship. The unconscious mind uses the metaphor, "Wolf", to relay
his desires to the woman he is attempting to capture in the war of love.
Here is sex in the business arena. The following reversals are taken from a man
and woman (not sexually involved) who were considering forming a business
partnership. Note the similar sexual dynamics that are operating In both this, and
the previous, examples. The game Is the same. The prize is different.
NOTES ON CLUSTERS
1) Clusters help with reversal analysis by allowing the Analyst to view, at a
glance, which reversals relate to each other.
D ETERMINING CLUSTERS
In this example between a therapist and her patient, the following reversals
occurred in the last seven minutes of conversation. The reversals about "Peter"
refer to the therapist's son who died a few months before this recording was
made.
2) Then time out the conversation using a stop watch, noting the precise time that
each reversal occurred.
3) Then determine how many reversals occurred altogether and arrive at a reversal
occurrence rate. For example, if the conversation was 60 seconds long and ten
reversals occurred, the average rate would be one reversal every six seconds.
4) Then prepare an amended session transcript with the reversals separated into
clusters.
With the reversals now separated into clusters, a trend can be seen.
(a) Reversals #1 and #2 are isolated reversals on the patient showing issues she
is dealing with in her marriage ("force" relates to male/female support dynamics).
(b) Reversals #3 and #4, also on the patient, are in a cluster with each reversal
directly connected to each other - - I do not wish to shoot (or have intense
emotions) / With someone.
(c) Reversals #5, #6, #7, and #8, on the therapist, are in a significant cluster of
four reversals in 15 seconds, which is a tight cluster considering the average
reversal occurrence of one reversal every 25 seconds. Note the trend in the
cluster. All reversals speak of her son. They show confusion as she still wrestles
with her grief, and the last reversal (Peter. You must leave) show her trying to
clear her mind of the issue, so she can be effective in the counseling situation.
(d) Reversals #10 and #11 are also in a cluster that occurred 35 seconds later
and show that the therapist has cleared her mind of the personal issue.
"...1 think it would be interesting to actually hear what 1 say. !t may take me a
step further in dealing with what 1 am dealing with. And I'm not just dealing with
. er, [I'm dealing with myself not just my grief]. There's more than that [and 1, um,
that interests] me greatly. [Part of me just feels that], not be here and it's that
easy... "
Feel a certain force. I'm feeling it.
Sydney helped me. I must say.
Have grief. Set me back.
It is possible to take control of a conversation in such a manner that you can also
take control of the reversals. In other words, you can direct what kind of reversals
and information you are seeking. Some basic points to remember are:
(i) Complementarity
What is discussed forwards is basically what will be discussed in reverse.
Many factors can be controlled simply by the manner in which the conversation
takes place. For example: (1) the level of reversals will vary depending on the
intensity of the conversation and the topic discussed; (2) the frequency of
reversals will increase as the conversation becomes free flowing and unprepared.
(iii) Language
Certain key words that you use in forward speech will trigger certain reversals.
The lecture on this tape was taken from the 1991 Reverse Speech Analyst class
and was conducted by Reverse Speech Trainer, Becky Thompson.
2) Analyze the tape for genuine reversals, constantly checking for imagination and
coincidence, and assigning validity factors.
5) Make a separate list of just the reversals in order and check for hidden agenda
and reversed conversational flow.
C LOSI NG COMMENTS
1) With Reverse Speech it is possible to see all parts of the psyche, or the whole
being - conscious, unconscious and even deeper.
3) Using the precise methods detailed in this training course, and not deviating
from them, it is possible to gain an accurate insight into the thought processes of
any person whose voice is recorded on tape.
1) Unsolved Mysteries
Reverse Speech could offer solutions for many of society's unsolved mysteries.
For example:
Bill Clinton
"...because he had some riles that were relevant [to it, he has to look into
what's there, and he'll just], whatever he wants to do... "
Silly hit. Nerves are worn. They killed to stay. Get out of It.
2) Law Enforcement
Reverse Speech is a powerful information gathering tool. Notice how much more
I nformation the following reversals give compared to the lie detector or other
speech analysis techniques. These reversals were found on an interview with a
man suspected of murder. All reversals are between validity 3 and 4.
I killed him.
I'm owed money.
1 rubbed him out, him.
I'm gonna lose the farm.
I need a gun.
Around tower, I'm a grown up.
This man fucked with me.
My love's been with him. Power was the lover there.
I dare seize the lover from him.
Someone saw where I left the gun.
Someone saw the weapon.
Here are the reversals found on the inverviewing officer in the preceeding
situation.
3) Therapeutic
Unravelling the client's mind to find the root cause of a problem is often the
therapist's most time consuming task - and, ultimately, a task that cannot be
fully achieved using current methods. Reverse Speech can give you a precise
picture of the internal workings of the mind and often reveal the root cause of the
problem in just one half hour session.
In the above example a man was seeking the cause of blocks he felt he had to
making money. The reversals revealed a deep seated conflict going back to his
birth and unresolved differences with his mother. The reversal, I want some skin
now, gives us some Idea of the direction to take. He wants some distance and
protection from these experiences. Thus, in this short three minute tape, we have
an entire therapeutic direction layed out for us - a direction that undoubtably
would have taken many months to uncover using traditional techniques.
These reversals give us much insight into this youth. First we see that the pain is
needed and created on an unconscious level ( I will get that hurt. I need that bed).
The reversals further tell us of an issue with his parents, and a lack of love he is
receiving. Further reversals, not shown here, indicate that the pain was created as
a means to receive attention from parents. Thus, speech reversals cut through
hours of therapeutic time to zero in immediately on the central cause.
PRACTICAL TEST
The test on side two of tape eight is an optional part of the entrance requirements
for Reverse Speech Analyst Training classes. This will give you an indication as to
whether you have a good ability to hear reversals. If you want to go further with
Reverse Speech, professional training is the next step. Complete the audio test
and send it, together with other necessary forms, to Reverse Speech Enterprises,
P.O. Box 1037 Bonsall, Ca. 92003. And if you just want to know how well you
are doing, without taking training, send us the test together with a stamped self
addressed envelope. We will evaluate the test and send you the results. Further
information about training, and additional forms, can be found in the back of this
manual.
