Information regarding this top-secret programme was partly declassified by the CIA in July following the thaw in the Cold War. Since then, several research articles 4 and many books have been published by some of the persons who were closely associated with this programme. The present brief account is based on the published sources of information.
Rhine in Students of Indian Yogic lore are however well acquainted with it. Aphorism 3. Most ancient civilisations appear to have been acquainted with the knowledge of this particular faculty of the human mind. In both Indian and Chinese scriptures there are instances of the clairvoyant skills of people being used as a tool for obtaining relevant military information in the battle-ground. Hal Puthoff, the founder and first Director of the SRI Studies has given a graphic account of how it all began in his recollections of the programme.
To overcome this problem, parapsychology researchers at SRI started using a set of pictures taken from the National Geographic magazine instead of the zener cards. Using advanced mathematical methods developed in the field of artificial intelligence and pattern recognition, the degree of success of the remote viewer was quantified.
While the names of some of them have been revealed, others are only identified by a code number. Those revealed are briefly mentioned below:. Hal Puthoff and an associate Bart drove off to the target site, which was five miles away. After the alloted time of 30 minutes, Pat Price was asked to view and describe the target site. He drew a diagram of the complex. Pat said that the site seemed to be a water purification plant and drew two water storage tanks and some rotating machinery such as pumps etc.
Everything was remarkably accurate except for the two water tanks and the water purification plant, which were absent. This amazing example brings out one of the remarkable features of remote viewing, namely the ability of consciousness to access the past.
But when the Pioneer flyby did take place it confirmed the existence of rings around Jupiter. Interestingly, a Pune based medical doctor by the name of Dr. Vartak has contacted this writer and sent newspaper clippings describing his astral visits to the Moon, Mars and Jupiter. The following are brief summaries of some very interesting operational assignments as reported in the declassified remote viewing literature.
The receiver then described the detailed geographical features of the surroundings of the site as follows:. Scrubby brush, tundra-type ground hummocks, rocky outcroppings, mountains with fairly steep slopes. Facing north for about 60 miles, ground slopes to marshland. A mountain chain runs off to the right, about degrees east of north. The laptop is connected to a video projector, which provides the only other source of light in the room.
One volunteer is missing. The workshop is running behind schedule. I have concerns that my cold may inhibit my psionic capacities during this session. Courtesy: the artist. After the volunteers are settled and briefed on housekeeping protocols silencing phones, estimated duration of the workshop, etc. It was defunded in , and remote viewers involved in the government programme today give workshops for civilian purposes such as industrial espionage.
A volunteer asks Coburn to describe these workshops. He is of the school where a target needs to be indicated by a string of random letters and numbers. At the start of the session, we compare our viewings, then Jon reveals the target. I love the banality of the things we often view: little toys, perforated balls for tea leaves, etc.
Coburn and Hatcher distribute pencils and sheets of paper and prepare us for our first remote viewing. I am at a high altitude above the ground, looking down as if from an airplane.
Ahead of me the curvature of the Earth is visible. I see a low hill on the horizon. The landscape is dark, but beyond the hill lies the glow of a sunrise, sunset or perhaps light pollution from a large conurbation. Directly below me is what appears to be a city grid layout, delineated in an orange light. To the upper left of the city grid the light appears brighter. Again, the light is crepuscular, as if from a sun or large moon rising. Hatcher asks us to share our data.
Coburn makes notes. Both provide evaluative remarks after each volunteer speaks about their experience. One woman describes having seen an industrial warehouse and sensed what appeared to be a large patch of viscous, rubbery substance.
Another describes sensing a sugary smell. Coburn interjects. Old Hippie Guy grimaces and fidgets more but does not argue. For a brief moment, the atmosphere in the room becomes tense.
Before the second viewing session begins, we are given a few minutes to share our findings with the person next to us. He comes across as earnest and self-effacing, asking if I am a writer or artist. I ask what he does but he deflects conversation back to my drawing. Second session: I am now on the ground in the area of the city grid from my first viewing.
I draw three telegraph poles receding into the distance, beyond which are low, dark hills. Coburn asks the group if we have any questions at this stage. With no information, McMoneagle tried to determine Dow's location. It's a raised thing, Three large areas connected with a large arch at one end Curved windows.
Something is framed on two sides It's all very congested. I'm having this really great overlay, which is the ferry, some kind of boat. The windows are open; they're just open frames. After a half hour of concentrating, McMoneagle finally conceded defeat. He could not pinpoint Dow's location at Niagra Falls. I think he sincerely believes he can do this. Dow placed two different objects in each of his pant pockets.
I'll take a wild guess. The left pocket is probably metallic, a metallic square of some kind. One's plastic, and one's metal. Please enter email address to continue. Please enter valid email address to continue.
