Psychics take over at Seven

Tim Brunero

Do we live in a world where psychics can solve crimes, investigate Australia’s greatest mysteries and diagnose illness by mere touch?

Well Channel Seven clearly thinks we do. Enter its latest offering The One a show where seven of Australia’s most switched on mystics will use their paranormal skills to compete to be named Australia’s greatest psychic.

But the challenges they will face won’t be easy.

One of the tests involves a young boy ‘lost’ in the bush. The competitors will have to use their abilities to home-in of his location.

Another will involve the psychics trying to find a single piece of contraband in one of 70 shipping containers.

A third will see them taken to a gaol in Melbourne to find the bones of Ned Kelly.

As you’d expect the competitors are a mixed bunch.

There’s a 44-year-old pagan Witch, Rayleen who regularly uses her gifts to help police, and Jason a 37-year-old maths genius with an IQ of 160 who abandoned his medical degree to study philosophy after a near-death experience.

But the contestants aren’t going to get an easy ride. One of the two judges who will decide who goes each week will be Richard Saunders a lifelong paranormal myth-buster and former President of ‘Australian Skeptics’.

Joining Saunders as a judge is Witch Stacey DeMarco. While the judges will decide who goes week to week – the public will decide by phone voting who is ‘The One’ of the last two contestants.

During the show the psychics will display a range of skills from Clairvoyance to Psychometry or object reading, from Remote Viewing to Mediumship (speaking to the dead). Telepathy and Fortune Telling will also feature.

I came across Daz’s blog, Cosmic Spoon, where he shares his passion for remote viewing and his experiences with it.

“Remote viewing locates plane - underwater.

“On Jan 7^th 2007 I as part of a closed team, I was blindly tasked with the target which is the title of the headline above. At the time the  authorities involved were still mainly looking over land for the missing plane. Overall the group did really well on this target – with coherent and matching data throughout – three of the remote viewers describing a vehicle crash event.

The last paragraph of my session summary is as follows.

Overall:
I would say the target involves intense erratic natural motion which affects a manmade structure/s and life. The motion comes in waves and builds to a point then slowly dissipates. The natural motion feels like water. The key part of the target indicate underneath so I feel there may have been an event whereby the structure or life went under the water due to a natural event that was a surprise event. This target happened in the past.

My very first impression from the moment I closed my eyes and tried to home-in on the target was of ‘flying over water’ which is clearly recorded in the first line of the session. I think you’ll see from the data and from the sketches that I was clearly on target and this is a good start to the year.”

Wow, congratulations Daz! I must say that it’s amazing to see how people can develop and hone their skills to accomplish great things!

Very fascinating, extremely touching! The story of this remote viewing session really brings us hope…

Guardian Angels

Do They Exist And Is One Assigned To Each Of Us?

By Jeff Lucas

Recently I tasked a Technical Remote Viewer with a blind target that felt so intensely personal to her that she considers it to be the most fascinating session she has ever worked.

What is astounding is the fact that she felt that way about the session prior to knowing what the target cue was. What began as a simple practice target meant to break the monotony of her serious work, ended up being a fantastic journey into the unknown that revealed information on a topic that no other conventional scientific technique could ever uncover.

The target was: [Person's Name]/Guardian Angel

At the end of her analysis, prior to receiving feedback, she wrote: “Doing this target seemed intensely personal to me. It was mystical in nature & I felt exhilarated yet humbled all at the same time. There are no words to describe it. All I can think of to say is, “What a trip!” and “Thank you TRV.” At the end of this article you can read the unedited transcript of her actual session summary.

Technical Remote Viewing was created to solve for unknowns. Like any other skill, confidence (trust — not faith) is acquired via training and practice against knowns, where session feedback is readily obtainable. However, it is important to provide a viewer during his or her training with interesting targets to break up the monotony and prevent boredom from settling in. Periodically, I like to slip in unusual or esoteric targets and problems when working with an intermediate level trainee, to keep them on their toes, make them realize that they should never assume anything, never know what to expect, and to boost their morale.

One of the profound discoveries from remote viewing research, is that novelty acts as a stimulus. Targets that are unusual and exciting, targets that are important to a great number of people, targets that involve motion, and ones that involve great expenditures of energy are among the easiest to remote view. Our unconscious minds are attracted to them just as we are to things of that nature in our every day lives, when we are not engaged in remote viewing.

I selected this target because the vast majority of the targets this viewer had been working recently involved operational targets of a serious and depressing nature, many of which involved deaths and other tragic events. Those targets can be very fulfilling when one is successful in helping a grieving family in search of answers, but they can also be an enormous drain psychologically to the remote viewer.

The session was performed completely blind and unmonitored. She did not know what the target was in advance and only received the following Target Reference Numbers: 7140/6040

After completing a TRV session, all viewers write a summary which details and lists all important data and concepts recorded during the session. The viewer is no longer “remote viewing” at this time, but writing down the key data that was retrieved during the previous forty five minutes. Following the summary, after at least 15 minutes have passed, a viewer may then attempt to analyze his or her work. This is important because of the bilocation that occurs during the TRV process; you do not have full use of your analytical mind function until approximately 15 minutes after your have ended your TRV session.

Paul Smith will be a guest of George Noory’s on Coast to Coast AM radio show, Monday night - July 28th starting 11 pm PST {1 am CST).

He will discuss the three types of catastrophes, what they are, how they can be predicted and how people can alter the outcomes to minimize their exposure.

Paul Smith -Catastrophes

Remote Viewing instructor Paul Smith explains the concept of “Do-It-Yourself Prophecy.” Why let someone else predict the future for you when you could be doing it yourself?

Bio: Paul Smith

Paul Smith has a BA from Brigham Young University, an MS from the Defense Intelligence College; and is a graduate student in the Ph.D. program in Philosophy at the University of Texas-Austin. He enlisted in the Army in 1976 and served for seven years in the government’s remote viewing “psychic espionage” program at Ft. Meade, MD. He is one of only a handful of government personnel to be personally trained in coordinate remote viewing (CRV) by Ingo Swann at SRI-International. He was the primary author of the government RV program’s CRV training manual, and served as theory instructor for new CRV trainee personnel.
His military assignments also included Arabic linguist, electronic warfare operator, strategic intelligence officer for an Army Special Forces unit, tactical intelligence officer with the 101st Airborne Division during Desert Storm/Shield, strategic intelligence officer in the Collection Directorate of the Defense Intelligence Agency, and chief of the intelligence and security division, DCSOPS, for the Military District of Washington.

This is the transcript of my interview with Major Ed Dames several weeks back - I asked some of the questions that people sent in that they wanted to hear an answer from Ed Dames, so read on - if you submitted a question, you might just find your answer here!

In case you missed it, you can download your copy of the audio recording here.

Michael Jura: Now this question comes from Camilla and Rodger, how could you be sure that what you think you were perceiving at these meetings was actually accurate and true?

Major Ed Dames: We can only be sure the way that anybody else and any other skill can be sure, we have to train, and train and train and train, and after six months of training or more, of targets where the feed back is known.

For instance if I were to remote view your mother’s birthplace, and then you tell me yes, you’re right or no you’re wrong; and we keep doing that until we get it right every single time, that’s the way we can be sure that when we work against unknowns, because that’s what we are training to do, solve for an unknown.

That’s the way that we are sure that we are right, 100% right, that we have been 100% right for six months or more under controlled conditions, and these are blind targets.

The trainee is not told what the target is, they are not told at all, unconscious must do all of the work, no thinking allowed. Only after we do that for months at a time, can we be sure that when we solve our unknown that the unknown is correct.

Michael Jura: I see, now that’s fascinating. So, was there anything you gained from remote viewing these Soviet meetings that was later verified factually to be true?

Major Ed Dames: Oh yes, many things. Two things I can think of off hand, the former Soviet Union was the Salyut Space station; what we derived from our work against these meetings was that the Salyut space station was going to be used as an operating base for exoatmospheric fighter planes.

In other words, the Soviet fighter plans to operate from space stations; they would actually dock and park in the Salyut 7 and they would achieve the high ground that way. And the other thing was a secret logistics tail in Afghanistan that we did not know about. Underground storage for weapons or equipment, things like that.

Michael Jura: That’s fascinating.

Major Ed Dames: But in these days and times, people use remote viewing for medical reasons, to find missing dogs and cats; yes we still use it to track nuclear weapons that might be stolen and things like that, but it has practical day to day uses as well.

Michael Jura: I see. Okay this question comes from Jonathan Davies, and it’s sort of related to what you just mentioned. When you are viewing these meetings in the Soviet Union, is there any way that they could engage a psychic spy who could also be at those meetings and detect when a remote viewer projects his awareness into the meeting?

Major Ed Dames: Actually, that was the case. They did know about us, and what they had was a Soviet extrasensor. The Russian extrasensor team was equivalent to our American sized spy unit.

The Russians did not know how to train this, they never discovered the protocols to do that, but what they did instead was they used very, very gifted natural psychics and trained them against US secret equipment and operations.

They would post one or two of those people at the meetings and if one of those people felt, right or wrong that they were being “pinged” so to speak by us, they would stop every body talking.

Michael Jura: Wow, that’s amazing, it reminds me of a story I read in one of the books by Robert Monroe, when he talked about how he was doing Astral traveling while vacationing in the Caribbean, and it turned out that during one of his travels he came across a CIA agent, and the CIA agent told him sorry, you can’t go any further the president is here; and it turned out that the president of the US, I can’t remember which
president it was at that time-

Major Ed Dames: It was Reagan. Bob came to me at one point in the program in the mid 80s and he was very disturbed, very, very upset because he could not sleep, because he felt that there were 3 Russian people that every time he tried to sleep, were looking at him.

Well, to make a long story short, I took my team and followed that back when back to Robert Munroe’s dream and looked back and it was indeed the Russians. The Russians were looking for the US psychic team, and what they found was Robert Munroe because we were using, my unit was using Bob Munroe’s gateway program to vet and assess recruits for our program.

We were spending so much time down there, with Bob, in his out of body, that the Russians felt that he was the commander!

Michael Jura: Wow.

Major Ed Dames: That’s why he couldn’t sleep, because the Russians kept pinging him thinking that he was in charge of the program, when in fact, we were using his program to assess  whether or not people would be good for our own program.

Michael Jura: I see, wow. And did the Soviets ever, I mean did you get any death threats from the Soviet or did they ever try to recruit you over to their side–

Major Ed Dames: Oh no- in fact two things; what happened is at one point the operations officer, a civilian Ivan Sokolav who I later met after the cold war was over, my counter part. And that was an interesting meeting. He knew that we knew about them.

His team started to report back to him that the Americans are looking at us, and the Americans know we are looking at them.

Well neither I as the operations and training manager of the American unit; I didn’t tell my commander this, because I knew that if told him he would shut us down and Ivan Sokolav did not tell the Colonel that was in charge of the Russian extrasense program that we knew about them because they would be shut down, and we didn’t want our operations to cease.

TV watchers may be interested in this upcoming show for topics of interest that include remote viewing…

By Steve Hammons

An online poll posted today asks readers and TV viewers what kinds of unconventional subjects they would like to see in the proposed new TV series.

The series project, tentatively titled “Joint Recon Study Group,” follows a secret team of military officers and civilians as they investigate unusual and anomalous developments.

At the online site serving as a platform for the TV project, the poll question is:

“For the TV series project ‘Joint Recon Study Group,’ what topics would you like to see explored? (You can select more than one.)”

Multiple-choice responses to choose from include the following:

• “UFOs and extraterrestrial visitation”
• “ESP, remote viewing and human consciousness”
• “Unconventional military and intelligence activities”
• “Spiritual topics: Afterlife, angels, a larger intelligence”
• “Real current events affecting the US, other countries, Earth”
• “Other”

POLL PROVIDES INSIGHT

Viewer interest in TV series such as “The X-Files,” “JAG,” “Army Wives,” “Medium,” “Stargate SG-1″ and other shows is something the Joint Recon Study Group series development team has paid close attention to.

In dealing with unconventional topics, the writers promise that they plan to maintain authenticity regarding scientific, military, intelligence and other aspects of the show.

This special Joint Recon Study Group team includes military officers from the Army, Navy, Marines and Air Force. Intelligence agency personnel and civilians are also part of the group.

The characters in the series are serious military and intelligence people who bring certain viewpoints to their investigations of unusual subjects. They are professionals, but also very human. When they encounter strange phenomena, they may discover things within themselves too.

In their determination to complete their mission of exploring anomalous phenomena deemed important to U.S. national security, they face dangerous threats from various kinds of adversaries, according to the TV project writers.

Some of the areas that the TV project developers plan for Joint Recon Study Group to investigate include ESP and “remote viewing,” UFOs and extraterrestrial visitation, time travel, teleportation, developments in quantum physics, crop circles, DNA genetics mysteries, ancient American Indian legends and prophecies and government dolphin research, to name a few.

How Good Can it Get?

Remote Viewing 2012

“What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.”

– Richard Bach, Illusions

As we approach the year 2012 and notice natural disasters around the world, many people wonder what will happen less than five short years from now. While some fear all manner of crises, it is reassuring to note that several indigenous peoples of Earth inform us that this time of transition has been long anticipated, and something that has occurred many times before.

According to the Mayan long count calendar system which tracks events through 26,000 year cycles of time, there is special significance to the year 2012 being a time of transition from the “Earth era” to an “era of Ether” at the time of Winter Solstice, on December 21, 2012. Within the cycles spanning 5,125 years, there are cycles known as the ‘13 Baktun Count’ which last 394 years, or 144,000 days. We are currently traveling through the final 13th baktun cycle — which began in 1618 and will run through 2012, and which is known as both ‘the triumph of materialism’ and ‘the transformation of matter.’

The Maya predicted this time would be a time of great forgetting, in which we lose our sense of Oneness with nature and the Earth. In the 1600s, mechanical clocks were invented which continue to this day, and which give people a sense that time exists outside of us, rather than as part of us.

The end of this materialistic time and the movement into the time of Ether is a profound change that also corresponds to a unique celestial event. On the winter solstice of 2012, the noonday Sun exactly conjuncts the crossing point of the sun’s ecliptic with the galactic plane, while also closely conjuncting the exact the center of the galaxy.

This past month I conducted a workshop in which participants and I remote viewed 2012, to see for ourselves what the future holds in store. In this remote viewing circle, most all participants clearly sensed a feeling of tremendous harmony, peacefulness and joy… and yet some also sensed that just past this peaceful calm lay some degree of chaos, stress and strife.

This energetic view of 2012 is one which feels like a smooth continuation of life as we know it today, with an additional emphasis on heightened energetic awareness. Most remote viewers had a sense of being in peaceful contemplation by themselves on December 21st 2012, and some noted they could clearly look out at a large, calm body of water. I saw myself by the Pacific Ocean along the California coast, and sensed that even as I was basking in radiant vibrations of unconditional love, there were people on Earth who were primarily focused more on material matters… such as wind storms.

According to Hopi legend, the world has already ended three times before, and people have survived fire, an ice age resulting from magnetic pole reversals, and flooding. The signs of the coming Fifth World are now appearing as prophesied by Hopi, as life forms from previous worlds spring up from the ground, the stars, and our hearts. The Hopi Life Plan petroglyphs remind people to be not be misled off course into attempting to be better than others, but instead to remain guided truly by Spirit.

In previous end times, those who made it through the transition with the most ease were those whose kopavi, the ‘door on top of their heads,’ stayed open to receive inspiration, and whose hearts were open to caring for others. An attitude of open-mindedness and open heartedness is clearly optimal for facing times of great upheaval and change, yet in stressful times, people who have not practiced the art of keeping open-minded and open-hearted can find it challenging to maintain.

This past month has provided us with opportunities to assist people in the world who have suffered through earthquakes and wind storms. While it is clear that many crises we are facing now require our attention and assistance, it is equally clear on an intuitive level that when we step back far enough, we can see that everything on Earth is moving forward beautifully. It is up to us to remain open to inspiration… and open to love.

As singer/songwriter Michael Stipe from the musical group REM puts it, “It’s the end of the world as we know it, And I feel fine.”

Remote viewing is essentially ESP (extrasensory perception) done systematically through learning special training techniques. It was used by the CIA. To learn and get into the “how to” requires technical and scientific training.

Remote viewing is in fact so powerfull, it was employed by the CIA. Basically remote viewing (RV) refers to the attempt to gather information about a distant or unseen target using paranormal means or extra-sensory perception. Typically a remote viewer is expected to give information about an object that is hidden from physical view and separated at some distance. The term was introduced by parapsychologists Russell Targ and Harold Puthoff in 1974.

In 1972 Stanford Research Institute (SRI) laser physicist Hal Puthoff tested remote viewer Ingo Swann, and the experiment led to a visit from two employees of the CIA’s Directorate of Science and Technology. The result was a $50,000 CIA-sponsored project.

The initial CIA-funded project was later renewed and expanded. A number of CIA officials including John McMahon, then the head of the Office of Technical Service and later the Agency’s deputy director, became strong supporters of the program.

A struggle between unbelievers and believers in the sponsor organizations provided much of the “how to” training program’s actual drama. Each side seems to have been utterly convinced that the other’s views were wrong.

In the early 1990s the Military Intelligence Board, chaired by DIA chief Soyster, appointed an Army Colonel, William Johnson, to manage the remote viewing unit and evaluate its objective usefulness. According to an account by former SRI-trained remote-viewer, Paul Smith (2005), Johnson spent several months running the remote viewing unit against military and DEA targets, and ended up a believer, not only in remote viewing’s validity as a phenomenon but in its usefulness as an intelligence tool.

After the Democrats lost control of the Senate in late 1994, funding declined and the program went into decline. The project was transferred out of DIA to the CIA in 1995, with the promise that it would be evaluated there, but most participants in the program believed that it would be terminated.

Remote viewing was popularized in the 1990s, following the declassification of documents related to the Stargate Project, a 20 million dollar research program sponsored by the U.S. Federal Government to determine any potential military application of psychic phenomena. The program was terminated in 1995, apparently citing a lack of documented evidence that the program had any value to the intelligence community. According to expert remote viewers who worked with the CIA however, the very controversial program was terminated because people high up in the U.S. government were afraid that remote viewing could be used against them.

One of the early experiments was lauded by proponents as having improved the methodology and techniques of remote viewing scientific testing and as raising future experimental standards, but also criticized as leaking information to the participants by inadvertently leaving clues. Some later experiments had negative results when these clues were eliminated

Remote viewing, like other forms of extra-sensory perception, is generally considered as pseudoscience due to the need to overcome fundamental ideas about causality, time, and other principles currently held by the scientific community, and the lack of a positive theory that explains the outcomes. Nevertheless though, while the “hows” of remote viewing are still not understood well, what is known for sure is that it works.

‘Remote viewing led to Saddam’s capture’?

ISRAEL. It was a clairvoyant using remote viewing techniques who was responsible for leading US commandos to Saddam Hussein’s hiding place in Iraq three years ago.

That’s the claim made by famous spoon-bender Uri Geller in an interview with a Reuters news agency correspondent in Herzliya, Israel, the day after Hussein was sentenced to death by an Iraqi court for crimes against humanity.

“You remember when they found Saddam Hussein in Iraq? A soldier walked over to a rock, lifted it and then found a trap-door and found him in there,” Geller recalled.

“Well, I know that that soldier walked over to that rock because he got information from a ‘remote viewer’ from the United States.”

Geller, who claims he worked for the Central Intelligence Agency during the Cold War, said his information came from a high-level source involved in American paranormal programmes.

At the time of his capture, US commanders said a source close to Hussein had given him up under interrogation. A US military spokesman in Iraq had no immediate comment on Geller’s claim.

A Brazilian psychic had previously claimed the $25 million bounty offered for Saddam’s capture, saying he had described the hiding place in letters to the US government. Uri Geller is currently in Israel in connection with a reality TV show.

ParanormalReview.com’s editor, Roy Stemman, recently suggested that Geller himself may have been the unidentified remote viewer who was brought in by the Israeli Army to help locate two kidnapped soldiers.

Since research into remote viewing – the ability to use the mind to “see” events that are happening far away – has been financed by the US military in the past, it is likely that there is a grain of truth in Geller’s claim. Indeed, it would be surprising if the US wasn’t experimenting with remote viewing techniques back in 2003, alongside conventional investigation methods, in their hunt for Saddam Hussein.

In fact, a remote viewing experiment conducted by US parapsychologist Stephan A. Schwartz (left), an internationally acknowledged expert on the subject, illustrates how accurate the technique can be, particular if the results are a consensus view taken from numerous “viewers”.

The experiment, conducted on 3 November 2003, suggested that Saddam Hussein would be found crouching in a subterranean room or cave, beneath an ordinary-looking house on the outskirts of a small village near Tikrit, that is reached by a tunnel. And the former leader, they said, would look like a homeless person, with a ratty salt-and-pepper beard. He would have a gun and some money but would not put up any resistance.

All of these statements, subsequently, were scored as hits. And the drawings showed striking similarities with the diagrams and related evidence presented by the US military when they announced Saddam’s capture (see Schwartz’s comparison below).

Four days after the experiment, the Pentagon announced that a special “covert commando force to hunt Saddam Hussein” had been formed. He was captured more than five weeks later, on 16 December.

The ARE’s magazine Venture Inward (March/April 2004) carried a news story about the seminar in which Stephan Schwartz emphasised it was just an experiment, adding:

“We had no access to military forces and, without that, there is no way to operationalise such information. People often target that remote viewing is just a piece of a complex puzzle, not some magic bullet that alone solves the problem.

“However, it is difficult to resist the conclusion that, had we been able to get it to someone in the command structure who was prepared to act on it, this data might have been quite useful.”

Did Uri Geller hear about this experiment and misinterpret it? Or does he have information that suggests someone did have access to the command struct and it did act on it? Though Geller provides no evidence, the Stephan A. Schwartz experiment ddemonstrates that such a possibility is feasible.

Perhaps, one day, the Freedom of Information Act will reveal the full story.
