Years ago I worked on resumes for recently laid-off NASA staff. What came through their writing was a sense of pride in our country, dignity and dedication.
It appeared they’d been largely rewarded with ceremonies and titles, which now filled their resumes.
The military and ex-military speakers at the International Remote Viewing Conferencereminded me of the NASA staff from so long ago. Their CVs are impressive, from Arab linguists (Paul Smith) to neurologists, there’s no doubt of their intelligence.
Do you have to be intelligent to be a remote viewer? Apparently, it helps, though it appears anyone willing to practice can achieve a level far above chance.
Remote viewers mentally travel the globe and draw pictures of their targets. In espionage, they described intricacies of machinery no one without the highest clearance had seen. They even detailed “enemy’s” then-denied military sites, which could only later be verified.
Remote Viewers were at the cutting edge of discovery; for instance locating downed airplanes and hidden hostages, and all with the use of their minds.
Our government assigned them complex (some would say impossible) tasks, and backed them with millions of dollars in funding. Remember, we were still trying to beat the Russians whom we knew were using ESP to their advantage.
According to Dr. Kit Green, former analyst at the CIA’s Office of Scientific and Weapons Intelligence, the first 10 years of remote viewing was 100% verifiable and correct. Why are the statistics lower now (though still higher, others remind us, than the evidence to use aspirin to prevent heart attacks?)
“We came to believe anyone could be a remote viewer,” Dr. Green surmised, shaking his head at the notion.
That first batch of viewers was different, Dr. Green insisted. He reviewed clinical psychological I.Q. testing on those viewers. They were older, tutored in esoterica, not just traditional religions, had exceptionally high I.Q.s, were successful right-brain oriented brainiacs(example: Ingo Swan was an accomplished artist).
Several had autonomia dysfunction, tended toward hypertension, exhibited flattened affect, (maybe that’s what autonomia means?); they were artistic and more non-military. (Though we know military viewers, such as Joe McMoneagle and Lyn Buchanan, (to name only two) had extraordinary results.
This group was normal, Dr. Green said, but on the edge of having paranoid constructs, just like people who go into police and intelligence work.
They exhibited a conspiratorial need to understand the ineffable, symptoms of grandiosity and evidence of pituitary malfunction. “No,” Dr. Green concluded, in response to an earlier talk, remote viewing is not always safe. The best viewers are demographically and physiologically different.”
Renowned viewer and teacher, Lori Williams, said she has never seen a student who didn’t score far above chance. “To become stellar, well, there just aren’t a lot of folks willing to practice this mental martial art enough to get to that level,” she believes.
Can You Do It? Should You Try?
Yes, and not because you’re going to spy for the military or gather evidence about your neighbor. The process promotes greater coherence between your conscious and unconscious mind.
It gives you the opportunity to connect with your soul; and the realization that limits to perception may be imagined. Its power, says physicist Russell Targ,” is to show us who we are: timeless consciousness.
And of course, you can also use it to check on your children, find your car in a parking lot, or even locate lost keys.
“It’s no harder to look into the future than describe something in your pocket,” noted Russell Targ. After all, no one doubts entanglement of photons. Things separate from one another can still be in contact.
Once, original viewer Pat Price described a targeted area perfectly except he included water tanks which weren’t there. However, 20 years later it was revealed that water tanks had been there 75 years before. Price also described Patricia Hearst’s kidnapper, a Soviet weapons factory, and read secret National Security files from 500 km away.
“If everyone took on this limitless consciousness, who could be controlled?” former military remote viewer and teacher Paul Smith asked.
His book, Reading the Enemy’s Mind : Inside Star Gate–America’s Psychic Espionage Programwas recommended by many of the speakers.
Another must-read: Russell Targ’s The Reality of ESP: A Physicist’s Proof of Psychic Abilities
End of Part I–I’m breaking this IRVA conference article into digestible parts! Next up, spoon bending. Always a fun IRVA party game and I have bent spoons to prove it.
Go to www.irva.org to buy any or all of the fascinating talks. I’ll provide little bits and pieces here but the knowledge base is vast and the speakers profound.
