Technical Remote Viewing
The Evolution of Human Consciousness

by Sydney L. Murray



 What if you could learn to precisely navigate the pathways of mind, space, and time? What if you could discover your optimal life path, solve medical problems, find missing people, lost objects, uncover mysteries of the past and unknowns of the future? Now you can with "remote viewing."

Major Ed Dames, U.S. Army (Ret.), was the Operations and Training Officer for the military's elite, "top secret" remote viewing unit which has been successfully used by the U.S. intelligence community to support critical and classified operations.

In 1991, PSI TECH's Major Ed Dames brought this priceless knowledge out of the confines of secrecy. In a rare interview, Dames shares about his experience of remote viewing and how we can utilize this valuable information in our personal lives.

Sydney L. Murray: Could you please explain what remote viewing is?

Ed Dames: Remote viewing takes advantage of a discovery of how our unconscious communicates information-accurate information-to conscious awareness. The syntax and the grammar as the unconscious, communicates to conscious awareness. Think of language. We have an innate ability to speak a language; the categorization of a subject, verb, object, in a left brain sense. Remote viewing occurs as we turn unconscious attention toward a pattern of information, person, place or event and hold that pattern of information and download descriptive data about it. We're also able to recognize when imagination enters the process, or when personal analysis of the data is getting in the way. For instance, if I were describing something distant in time or space that was long, yellow, and soft, my analytical mind might jump to the conclusion that I was dealing with a banana. In fact, it could be an animal on another planet. So we're taught to be on guard for that.

What we do in remote viewing is similar to searching a library data base. There are three parts in "technical" remote viewing and the analogy is: Knowing how to fill out the library card, so that the librarian-the collective unconscious or the matrix-knows what we're looking for; knowing how to do the search; and, knowing how to analyze the data received. That takes some experience. So it's a three part process. Remember the old data processing line, "Junk in, junk out"? It's the same in remote viewing. It's similar to doing an Internet search. If we use a very general term, we get very general information back. If we use a nonsense term, then we get nonsense information back. So we want to be fairly specific and tight, it's a 45 minute process. We're alert, sitting up, pen in hand. Very high attention is required, we don't want to waste time by asking the wrong question. We're turning our conscious attention toward a target, a person, place, thing, or event, and we're demanding that our unconscious attention follows.

 

SLM: So the matrix or the collective unconscious is this whole field of information around us?

ED: Yes, that is what the matrix is. It's similar to what Carl Jung described as the "collective unconscious." It is the way that all things exist, including people, as a pattern of information. Think of the universe as information that we're turning our attention to. We're not going anywhere, what we're doing is translating ideas into perceptions. For instance, if a neurosurgeon were moving a wire around in a person's brain, a millimeter this way, a millimeter that way, you might smell a nuance of your mother's perfume when you were seven years old and you'd swear you actually did smell it. In fact, there's no perfume only a memory. We are going into an invisible data base that is being downloaded into our conscious mind. Our brain is looking for memory labels on which to hang these perceptions. As human beings, our minds are immersed in a larger mind field, called the collective unconscious or the matrix, so we are simply extracting data or information like a radio receiver.

 

SLM: Why are we just now beginning to hear about remote viewing?

ED: Perhaps it is an idea whose time has come, but it is still ahead of its time. It could have bloomed in centuries past, but it was suppressed for one cultural reason or another. It is an innate ability and it has always been there.

There is also a real need for this kind of ability, in terms of the kinds of dangers that are present in the world today. Nuclear terrorism and weapons of mass destruction demand that we need something, that an intelligence agency or country could use to find a missing nuclear weapon, as an example. It really is a technology that is required for the twenty-first century.

 

SLM: Is there any difference between remote viewing and technical remote viewing?

ED: Yes. Remote viewing, as a generic term, is generally synonymous with ESP and clairvoyance. Technical remote viewing is a skill that is very precise and rigorous-a tool for our age. Many times we want more than just general descriptions of a target, we need precision. Where is this person? Exactly what failed on this space shuttle? Where is the hydrogen leak? Which system, what sub-system? Sketch it. Whereas remote viewing, ESP, clairvoyance, is far looser. In the early days of our military work, we used altered states to gain information which was iffy at best, but we could still get some information. Technical remote viewing is far more consistent and accurate than the other techniques that we used. Necessity is the mother of invention and technical remote viewing is the invention that came out of the necessity to describe what kind of weapons exist. There is preciseness and rigor that was demanded in these life and death circumstances.

Right now we are using it at PSI to find missing children as a public service. In the military it was a military operation. Drop a bomb on a foreign dictator-we needed to find that person. Yes, we were using it in conjunction with other intelligence systems, but it was still a very serious matter. This is not a lay back, close your eyes, relax and tell me what you see type of thing. It is a lot of work and you had better be right. It's like any job. As a professional airline pilot you would not have any excuse for landing your aircraft ten feet off the runway. It is a skill, it can be fun or it can be employment. For us, it is a profession.

 

SLM: What positive impact might remote viewing have for our world?

ED: It could save a tremendous amount of money. Because it is direct knowledge we are able to discern the answer to problems. I've taught some of the world's top neurosurgeons and as a practicum in our courses, they have brought terminal cases to me and said, "Let's solve this." And we did. We were dealing with a person's life. What is a cure for AIDS? These are projects we can tackle effectively. It can save a lot of money and it's life-saving too. For exploration, it is a wonderful tool. For historians, you can recreate, accurately, what really happened as opposed to what history books might say. Archeology, paleontology, anything, the sky is the limit.

We are sought out most commonly to find missing children, it is what we are engrossed in now. The demand to find missing persons and criminals is still the highest demand we have. It is not the most fun. For me, it is far more fascinating to solve archeological mysteries or to locate things.

 

SLM: Has this experience changed you?

ED: Yes, it has changed me immensely. Technical remote viewing has allowed me to be aware of realities that I was not aware of before, or perhaps even believed in. Because of the exposure to these new realities, new ideas, it has changed my priorities and the things that I'm interested in. I have used this technology to look at everything you could imagine, everything. Do you want me to speak honestly? Angels. After all of these years, I have come to the conclusion that we, as humans, are doing ourselves a big disservice by not aligning ourselves with angels. Angels are always there to help us. That in and of itself is worth all the years of work I've done. When I first discovered angels were real, I was in the military and I called them outside agencies. To know that the angels are real and to know that we can ally ourselves with them has been the most fulfilling thing for me.

 

SLM: What do you see for the future?

ED: I think in an evolved world, it will be common knowledge, that there is an alliance between material beings here and other creative beings; even though we are very different, there is a definite alliance. I think we are all working toward the same purpose, toward evolution on a grand scale. People will know that we are operating in alliance toward a mutual goal. Angels can see over the horizon of time, and if you can avail yourself to the intelligence of angels who can see ahead [in time] and warn you, "Hey, don't go this way, or there is something better this way." Why second guess?

I had an extremely huge ego. I was tremendously arrogant, especially as an officer. But looking at the intelligence of angels, I realized that if I tried to second guess, I would be a poor remote viewer. I join forces with these beings and they become, in essence, the senior partners. There is a tremendous amount to be gained here, at least personally for me. Even if I couldn't convince anyone else that this were true, for me, it has been worthwhile that I discovered angels.

In our work, we can look forward to what we call an "optimum personal trajectory." We can determine a great deal about what is going to happen to us in the future if we continue along the same vein. We can determine certain milestones: the death of a loved one, a marriage, divorce, accident, any number of things. It sounds risky for people to look at their optimum trajectories, to take the time to learn how to do remote viewing and then do this. They find themselves in a position where they are describing an entirely different life, one in which they would have to move, or maybe give up their job. It appears like an extreme risk, yet they don't know something that Buddhists have known all along-it is not a risk at all-this is when the universe is supporting you.
