Richmond IONS October Meeting Program
“Remote Viewing – History and Process.”
Our October 19, 2019 program will feature a talk by Robert Bushman, Ph.D., retired scientific linguist. He now resides in Richmond.
Remote Viewing (RV) is an intuitive awareness of anything removed in time and place from the observer. It is a form of extra-sensory perception. The RV phenomenon has always been a natural human faculty. It has existed along a continuum of similar phenomena. And it has been known by various names, such as clairvoyance.
The term “Remote Viewing” found its way into paranormal nomenclature nearly 50 years ago from a government-sponsored program by that name. A physicist, Russell Targ, an engineer, Harold Puthoff, and a psychic, Ingo Swann collaborated to create it at the Stanford Research Institute in the early 1970’s. Ingo Swann actually coined the term.
Based on the quantum physics principle that consciousness is non-local, RV protocols were developed and in turn were adopted and implemented by the US military and intelligence services. They established an RV intelligence and “psychic spy” unit at Fort Meade, Maryland. This unit remained active from the early 1970s until at least 1996.
Remote Viewing supports the timeless spiritual teaching of non-duality. It also provides the precept of non-locality in modern quantum physics. In his presentation, Robert Bushman will review the history of the government program and describe some RV processes.
Practical Remote Viewing Exercises
Robert’s presentation will also include a practical RV exercise for the participation of all in our group. Some may be naturally more adept than others. However, this exercise will show that we all can do RV in some degree. In fact, we do it unconsciously on a routine basis. Moreover, RV is a faculty everyone can consciously develop in much the same way as learning a foreign language.
RV may be used for a wide variety of practical purposes, such as finding lost objects or people. It can also help us understand something in the past such as solve mysteries, or even predict a future event. There is no known limit on what is knowable – there are no secrets – only questions we have not yet asked.
