 1 The Scientific Basis of Remote Viewing Remote viewing is the mental ability to receive messages from people, places, or things that are remote in time and space. Remote viewing entails the visual interpretation of such information, which could be from any source that is not within the normal visual range. This means that the person who is ‘remote viewing’ is using intuition, or mental powers to tap into sources that are geographically distant and are physically hidden from the normal field of vision of any person. Remote viewing, or RV, is considered to be another form of extra sensory perception, where the mind is able to connect to a ‘sixth sense’ and utilize what is called in parapsychology as  ‘psi’, and see beyond the ordinary boundaries of space and time. Scientific remote viewing takes into account the brain’s ability to receive fine tuned signals from across space, utilizing the brain’s own electromagnetic impulses, or brainwaves. There are various other theories that explain RV, and some of them are interesting enough to have launched government probes, and use them for intelligence research during the world

wars. Remote viewing in general has captured the interest ofthe mass public, and understandably so.

Remote viewing has aroused a great deal of scientific interest,

and many researchers within an academic tradition, havebrought out books and journals, investigating into the validityof about remote viewing claims. Many well known books on thesubject, such as Courtney Brown’s ‘Remote Viewing: TheScience and Theory of Nonphysical Perception’ expound on theability of remote viewing, and proffer scientific explanations forsuch mental facilities.

Courtney Brown, professor at Emory University, outlines in his

book the academic study of subjectivism or subjective physics,which proves to be critical in the understanding of remoteviewing.

The scientific understanding of remote viewing utilizes theoriesof quantum physics, and establishes a link between quantumphysics and the consciousness of the mind. Brown deals withthe concept of ‘subspace’, along with varying levels of theconsciousness that affect remote viewing, propounding the idea

of ‘subspace thinking’ in his book. There are many other ideasabout the nature of remote viewing that are expounded in thisbook.

Remote viewing is considered to be a psycho-energeticprocess, meaning that the brain generates extra amounts ofenergy during remote viewing, which does not come within theusual purview of the consciousness.

The process of RV utilizes the hidden mental faculties thatallow the viewer to access information that is ordinarily hiddenfrom view. The subject of remote viewing should be treated asscience, and not séance, because of the fact that its applicationcan be used for scientific purposes, and for the benefit of all.

There are many aspects of the human brain that have not beenstudied scientifically; because of they have been till datecouched in the terminology of ‘pseudoscience’. This particularbranding of scientific remote viewing was made during the

proper analysis of the mental abilities of RV, and not justfictional accounts of remote viewing.

Remote viewing is considered to be one of the most relevantareas of scientific inquiry, because if it is possible, our worldcould be revolutionized in terms of communication. There arealso the other implications of breach of security andinformation theft, along with loss of privacy. This had led to aCIA funded experiment on remote viewing, along with the

development of Mind Technology by the intelligence agenciesaround the world, during the 1950s.

The concept of psychic spies, who used remote viewing toobtain enemy information, was well utilized during the waryears. There was extensive use of psychic spies during theSecond World War, and then again during the cold war. In fact,Courtney Brown’s discovery of scientific remote viewing wasmade during his personal contact with Pentagon’s previous

psychic spies, who were utilized against the Russians in theCold War.

However, these instances of the use of remote viewing forspying purposes were critically examined and reviewed in the1990s, when the CIA hired the American Institutes forResearch (AIR) to evaluate the claims. The ‘Stargate’ programwas funded by the CIA and the US Army, used psychics forspying, and locating information about Gaddafi, a Libyan

General, and missing airplanes in Africa.

The reviewers of such results included Jessica Utts, and RayHyman who were psi researchers. Although there wasextensive deployment of psychic spies by many governmentsaround the world, the results of the AIR remained inconclusive,

because of insufficient evidence to propound the truth of thesame.

Ingo Swann is widely recognized as one of the creators of the

discipline of remote viewing. His books on the subject ofscientific remote viewing include, “Kiss the Earth Goodbye:Adventures and Discoveries in the Nonmaterial”, and theseveral self help books, “Everybody’s Guide to Natural ESP:Unlocking the Extrasensory Power of your Mind”, and “YourNostradamus Factor”, to name a few. Swann looks to bring thesubject of remote viewing out of the pseudoscience jargon, andin his books he establishes his role as a consciousnessresearcher.

There are many levels of the consciousness, and these formthe main crux of the concepts he dwells in his works. Swann isconsidered to be a scientific researcher who uses well designedexperiments to evaluate the truth behind remote viewing, andhe had helped develop the process of remote viewing at theStanford Research Institute. He is also believed to havepropounded the theory of coordinate remote viewing, a processvia which one can view a location, given just the geographical

coordinates of the same. Such form of RV is able to conquerthe boundaries of ordinary space, in which a subject views anylocation, just by knowing the coordinates of the place.

Remote viewing is said to operate outside the physicalparameters of space, as well as time. This implies that if thebrain’s innate ability to transcend time and space is tapped,you can effectively see into the future, just as easily you cansee into the past. Scientific remote viewing looks at the space

time conundrum as problems of special relativity, among otherissues. False assumptions regarding the nature of space lead tophysical paradoxes, which is the apparent contradictionbetween physical descriptions of the universe. This means thatthe usual assumptions about space and time are fallible, andthe mind is normally programmed to believe in the same.

For remote viewing to be possible, your mind has to beprogrammed against these assumptions, so that you areactually breaking paradoxes such as the Twins paradox, whichshows that there is no absolute time. Most paradoxes relate to

false assumptions, and when these are verified, the paradoxesresolve themselves. During the process of remote viewing,minds that are attuned to the correct views of space and timeeasily jump over the so called fences of time, as well as space.

Remote viewing is made possible if one proceeds from ascientific standpoint of understanding how the mind works.There are many who believe that one can easily ‘see’ thefuture, via scientific remote viewing. Phyllis M.H. Atwater’s

book, “Future Memory: How Those Who ‘See the Future’ ShedNew Light on the Workings of the Human Mind” deals with theprocess of remote viewing into time. In her book, sheinvestigates the truth behind the ability to live life in advance,and to be able to live apart from the present day physicalmanifestations. Atwater’s firm belief in the flexibility of realityhas led to the explanations behind the occurrences of

 ‘coincidences’ which are actually the ‘shifts’ in the fluidstructure of reality.

She also believes that prophesying, precognition, clairvoyance,and clairaudience are proof of the human brain’s futuristicawareness, via the understanding of true nature of reality.Atwater says that we all have future memories, and thisexplains why we sometimes experience dèja vu situations. Ourmental ability to see into the future is just the extension of ourinnate ability to trace the correct pathways of interpreting timeand space.

Remote viewing experts suggest certain techniques, practicingwhich we can free our mind from the limitations of ordinaryperspective. Atwater claims to have learnt how to remote viewthrough the practice of thinking and conceptualizing about thefuture, time and again, till it became a habit of the mind.

This actually facilitates the process of shifting our perceivednotion of the present reality into the actual fluid structure oftime, so as to be able to view the next sequence. Remoteviewing into space is possible with the same concept, only you

are moving the perceived boundaries of space, as opposed tothe boundaries of time. Atwater says that the entire beliefstructure in our minds about time and space has to be changedcompletely, so as to discover the true nature of reality.

Our beliefs shape our future, and if we control our beliefs, wecan control our future. Our vision of the future is made possibleby programming the brain to encounter the truth, and not theapparent web of sensory illusion of the present physical space.

With remote viewing, you are leaping over the boundaries ofyour ordinary sensory limitations, and in a sense, you areutilizing the powers of your highest mental faculty. Subjects,who are remote viewing, are experiencing images from anothertimeline, and from a place far away in space, with the help oftheir own mind, and nothing else. Normal use of logic cannotexplain such phenomena, because ordinary logic relies on theuse of our ordinary senses.

Once you are conscious of future events, you will actuallyincorporate those images within your normal memory, and in asense, you can easily reflect on these as you can do withevents that happened yesterday. It is of paramount importancethat you do not see what you want to see, during remoteviewing, as these are the results of false assumptions of themind.

Once you attune your mind to receive the truth and not

assume what you physically see to be true, you are expandingyour mental faculty, in a sense, opening up your mind toreceive true impressions.

There are many supporters of remote viewing, who perceivethe same as scientifically proven mind technologies, whichbreak the space time barrier, with the help of the highest

faculty of the mind. These mind technologies are derived fromthe researches by the international intelligence community andadvanced mystics and mind masters. These communitiesadvocate the existence of a Universal Mind, which is the same

as Jung’s collective unconscious, and the mystics’ Cosmic mind,is the source of all truth, and as humans, all of us can tune intothis universal mind, via our own minds.

Such a theory seeks to provide solutions to many problems putforward by psychoanalysts, psychics, quantum physicists, intheir respective domains. The existence of such a universalmind, or repository of infinite intelligence, explains not only thepossibility of remote viewing, but also encourages the same.

Such a theory not only validates the claims of mystics andspiritual believers in a unified Truth, but also supports thetheory that information about the past, present and future ispossible via a mental tuning into such a ‘mind’.

There are stages in our sleep cycle, when our brain’s electricalactivity drops to below 4 cycles per second, and this is when,advocates of such a Universal Mind theory believe that weloose individual consciousness, and enter into the Universal

Mind.

We experience unconscious sleep almost every time we go tosleep, and if such a theory were to be true, all of us areinnately connected to this universal mind, via the sleep cycle.Psychoanalysts hold this responsible for the formation ofcertain archetypes in our subconscious mind, as during theunconscious sleep we connect to the collective unconscious.During unconscious sleep, our mind does not perceive time to

be linear. Remote viewing is possible for those who learn howto achieve this state during the normal periods of the brain’sactivity.

The major hurdle in the process of remote viewing that anordinary person faces is the supposed ‘linearity’ of time, andthe physical boundaries of space. Once you are attuned to

They wanted to use this to affect mind to event viewing, andinfluence future events. Mind technological warfare use remoteviewing, remote sensing, and remote influence, as the tools ofcontrolling present or future events. A desire to use such life

manifestation techniques, and mind control led to theadvancement in remote sensing and remote viewing theorizing,which is the time when most of the researches into suchabilities were done.

One of the most intriguing aspects of remote viewingresearches is that remote viewers register unusual mentalactivity during the ‘seeing’ or sensing remote objects, people orplaces. The brain encephalographic recording machines show a

pattern of theta waves, which are usually 4 to 7 cycles persecond normally occurring during the unconscious sleep cycleto a relaxed state of mind.

Theta waves are not ordinarily present in one’s consciousness;in the waking state the brain emits only beta and alpha waves.William Ross wrote about the relationship between the thetastate and remote viewing/influencing, in his pioneering bookabout brainwave research. In his book, he outlines how

emotional states and behavior are influenced by placing asubject in an electromagnetic field. Ross induced a 4.5 CPStheta rhythm on his subjects, via a carrier frequency tostimulate the brain and by controlling the EEG rhythm usingamplitude modulation.

The theta state of the mind is capable of remote viewing,sensing, and remote influencing. Such a powerful state of themind was unaccounted for, and many scientists could not

explain why this could be achieved on any subject.Psychoanalysts and the advocates of the universal mind explainthis by the fact that theta waves are transmitted by our deepunconscious, which taps into the collective unconscious, andhence is able to send or receive signals from any other mindanywhere in the world.
