Precognition

“PRECOGNITION: Producing information about a target prior to that information actually existing in time/space (e.g., describing an event before it actually happens).”

“Precognition involves an awareness of future events before they happen.”

“Early in the experimentation, a side effect began to manifest itself. It was not an out-of-body activity as such, but took place in states of deep relaxation prior to any separation.”

“At first, I paid no particular attention to the phenomenon, attributing the dream visions to release of material from the unconscious. A major event brought it strongly to my attention.”

“There would be a hissing sound, localized in the forebrain, and I would get the sensation of a small rectangular door, hinged at one end, swinging downward to an angle of about 45°. This exposed a perfectly round hole.”

“Immediately thereafter, I would see and semiexperience an event or incident like a dream, except that I retained all of my consciousness and sense awareness. The dream would be superimposed directly over outside stimuli. I could perceive both quite readily.”

“I could not and cannot produce the effect at will. It merely happened or was triggered by some non-conscious mechanism.”

“To date, a pattern of consistency has been established: H (Hissing sound) + V (Valve-opening sensation) = F (Future event vision).”

“On the premise that this formula has been applicable and proved twenty-two times, what of the other cases listed in the notes where F has not yet taken place?”

“There are some eighteen more, all of which are personal incidents of varied magnitude, previewed via the valve and later coming to pass exactly as noted, allowing for minor errors in interpretation.”

“It is evidently called in the trade “precognition.””

“The mind, when unable to identify truly, picks the nearest thing to it in the mind’s experience.”

“I said that I felt that it was precognitive and I'd seen this bombing on Old Compton Street at the far right of the street and that, you know, I had this, I didn't know why, but I had this conviction that I felt that it was going to happen.”

“And this case of precognition was unique in that it was also witnessed by five other people.”

“i believe that i saw it on just on the the television on on the news... it's slowly dawning on me that oh this is exactly what i saw”

“I got on a bus a few days after... I had a strong feeling of a friend who I'd known in the past and I hadn't seen for I think at least two years... he got onto the bus so that was a that was again like another sign”

“i tend to talk about it in terms of maybe emotional impact... when there's a strong bond between the two participants it tends to be more successful in terms of psychic research so I guess I tend to frame it in the sense of emotion or emotional impact”

“You've done incredible work in the study of psi and the study of precognitive you know, precognition, all sorts of really interesting size stuff.”

“The reason I feel comfortable using dreams sometimes as data is because I know my own dreams have been highly evidential in terms of precognition”

“not all of them and so that's ... and so with each dream it's sort of like well maybe this is just my opinion this could be a psychological metaphor ... for how it felt but it's still it's describes how it might have felt”

“Mental time travel is like precognition. And it's also like memory ... precognition is like mental time travel, knowing something about the future that you can't know through other means.”

“There's informational time travel, which is just getting information sent back to you in time. without using precognition. So like potentially using a device”

“I've gone to the really unconscious physiological scale and doing things at the 100 milliseconds to seconds time scale. And then on the other end, the more conscious, more deliberate precognitive remote viewing, you know, minutes, days, weeks, et cetera, scale. So I've studied both of those.”

“It's called pre-sentiment. ... It means pre-feeling.”

“they start to behave as if the system knows it's gonna be on for five minutes. So it's like for the photons, they know that they're in this group, it's called boundary conditions in physics, the boundary condition of the on and the boundary condition of the off and the future are both shaping this group's behavior.”

“you can then look at the first minute of this five minutes and know that at a relatively high accuracy rate that it's going to be on for five minutes even if the person who's holding the flashlight doesn't know that in five minutes they're going to turn it off because it behaves differently than something that's going to be turned off in two minutes”

“So that's my startup is we're creating technology that can then look at that first chunk of time to predict the future. Period.”

“when you find it on the seconds or minutes time scale or with remote viewing precognitive remote viewing it could be days, weeks, years.”

“Yeah, he did a bunch of precognition studies. He did a bunch of them.”

“None of them were remote viewing.”

“the real upshot at a meta-analysis that came after him is that the ones that were more replicable were the ones that were unconscious. So they were the ones that were fast, unconscious, not trying to do things. The slower ones that took more time in between the information and when it was given in the future, they did not replicate as well.”

“And there's been a lot of takedowns of his work, and that's okay. I think there were some errors in there, and I think it's okay to criticize work.”

“as a person who's gifted at precognition and telepathy, remote viewing, that kind of stuff”

“Stan B. Yesterday at 1:33. What causes precognition of an event that doesn't happen anymore after you acted upon the precognition?”

“So we usually think about that scenario as if this B, the missile launch that did happen in North Korea, feeds back to day 1A ... And now you're on a new timeline where that event B didn't happen. It's like it allows you to select a better timeline.”

“The way I like to think about it, because I hate this, is I just think it's ugly.”

“the informational substrate knows that there's going to be this missile launch. It gives you this information at the football game. and you prepare to destroy the missile ... The knowledge that there's this intention for the missile launch ... and the knowledge that you will foil that intention.”

“Where it's no longer that you have to work with the events in time that actually make it up to physical manifestation. You're working with this substrate that is actually aware, its mind, its universal mind is aware of what needs to happen.”

“Well, this was not a change. No, there's no. Your activity that made this missile test.”

“if we go if we look throughout history humankind has not been able to do that in a way that is uh repeatable or at all like measurable so there has to be a benefit to us not being able to do that”

“If that is true, of course, and if her map is valid, then the only thing she can claim is that she has precognition.”

“He has been investigating cases of apparitions, hauntings, and poltergeists for over thirty-five years”

“In 1985, Donna McCormick, a knowledgeable and very careful researcher whom I worked with for a few years, provided me with an example of an interesting, ongoing apparition case.”

“Chris reported to his family that she had appeared to him every day since the first time he saw her, when he waved back at the figure he saw. He said that the woman did not disappear once he waved at her, but rather approached him and began communicating.”

“We brought Alex in, and Ingrid, and Ann, and they all gave descriptions of the grandfather. She had a picture of him, so we put that among several others for the psychics to choose from, and each one picked the grandfather’s. They all gave good descriptions of what he was like in life, interactions that occurred, where the phenomena occurred, really an excellent case of everything being very clear-cut.”

“In addition, after many years of research, Haraldsson found that apparition cases also contained a much higher percentage of appearances from those who had suffered a violent death, when compared with the general population.”

“Persons suffering a violent death feature predominantly in cases of apparitions of the dead and in cases of the reincarnation type, as well as in mediumship, including both direct communicators and drop-ins.”

“The first attempt at a systematic scientific study of these apparitions was made by Sir William Barrett, a physicist”

“The fact that the visitors are occasionally seen by other people automatically removes them from the category of hallucinations; we have to regard them rather as apparitions”

“He does acknowledge, however, that sometimes the phenomena can manifest spontaneously; we have seen just that with regard to after-death communications and apparitions, for example.”

“This explains why only some people might experience apparitions—their perceptual processes are susceptible to such insertion by telepathic projection.”

“It also explains why one doesn’t expect to see genuine photos or videos of ghosts. They have no form to reflect light.”

“Based on my many years of investigations and experiences, I think the evidence is weighted heavily toward the survival hypothesis in explaining apparitions.”
