Introduction by Dan Eden
A few months ago, ViewZone Magazine received requests for information on a phenomenon called "remote viewing" which has been, and likely still is, an area of great interest to the military and other covert intelligence gathering organizations. We interviewed and received letters from a number of people who were involved in this research. As a result of the information we gathered, it was clear that there was some validity to this ability to "see" things that were hundreds or, sometimes, thousands of miles away from the viewer.
While the military preferred to use words like "protocols," we were told that anyone could develop this ability with some instruction, and that this skill represented just one of many dormant abilities that reside in our brain and psyche.
The intelligence community has kept many of these "protocols" classified and unavailable to all but a handful of people. But these abilities are the birthright of every human and, thus, their teaching and development can never be kept secret.
The compiler of this series of lessons, Dr. Max Sandor, wishes to make it clear that he is not describing any classified protocols in these exclusive reports. In fact, he does not wish to use the term "protocol" and prefers to avoid the term "remote viewing," rather providing instructions on the development of "Straightline Remote Sensing."
Dr. Sandor is about to release an important guide that details these abilities something he calls his "Little Purple Notebook On How To Escape This Universe," or "PNOHTETU." This whimsical title conceals some of the most prolific writing on a topic that will ultimately change our destiny.
For many years, only two photos existed showing this shy and modest man whom many call "Humble Max": A secret service photo made in Cambodia, and Gunter Zielke's historic "El Monte portrait." (Of course, there is also Diane Dornbusch's famous oil painting.) Now, with sheer luck, an off-duty paparazzi saw him riding into the mysterious Haines Canyon, known as the home of many strange creatures. Thus, this picture was taken on March 28th, in the Year of the Lord 1998, right after the revelation of Prep Trap Example 2.
Maximilian Joachim Sandor incarnated as a male bipedal mammal in Berlin, Germany, and was called Joachim Herbert Steingrubner until he, for some obscure reasons, decided to change his name. He holds an Engineers Diploma (E.E.) and a Ph.D. in Computer Science, and has studied such diverse topics as Mathematics, Indo-European Languages, Electrical Engineering, Life, Universe, and Everything. After roaming Europe for many years, he moved to California (in the fall of 1984) and worked there as a Computer Engineer and as a Consultant. He has worked exclusively for the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) since 1996.
Having had interested in the questions of life and death since early childhood, he came in contact with books of George Grimm in early 1977. Grimm's clear and concise presentation convinced him in a very short time that Gotamo Siddharto's teachings had a solid basis in reality, far from the many cultural distortions that make up the picture of today's prevailing "Buddhist" circles.
As early as Spring 1978, Max was thinking of writing a contemporary summary of Gotamo's ideas, still seen predominantly through the filter of Grimm's perception. It has taken twenty years until the time seemed right to finally start this project.
In the meantime, he has studied a variety of modern technologies of the mind, many of which are better not disclosed. Tired of pseudo-scientific attempts to forcefully bend Gotamo's teachings into the framework of contemporary "Science," as well as the romantic glorification and illogical myths around the "Buddha," he rarely engages in private or public conversations about the aspects of Gotamo's teachings.
It comes, therefore, as quite a surprise that he is now indeed compiling the "Little Purple Notebook On How To Escape From this Universe." Further details can also be found on his website at http://transmillennium.net/pnohteftu/

Who said that the way to spiritual freedom would be serious,
dreadful, and boring stuff?
The joy of discovery surely lies at the root of any true progress!
And what could better describe this joy of discovery than
snooping around in this Universe without the burden of
having to drag around a human body?
The talk is about Remote Viewing-- a very intriguing subject
which carries considerable emotional charge on all levels of
human existence. As with all major paradigms, Remote Viewing could be taken just by itself as a theme for building a Bridge to the Beyond.
The Being, once it recognizes its existence in spheres of emanations
that are different from, but yet connected to, the human experience,
will naturally begin looking outward. The more its perceptions
are spreading out and pervading the surrounding environment of the
body it was previously chained to, the more the Being will establish
its freedom from the world and its phenomena.
Thus, gradually, the Being frees itself by gaining a larger
and yet increasingly more detailed picture of the world.
The term "viewing" could be interpreted as concentrating solely
on the visual aspects of perceptions. It may come as a surprise
but other perceptions are becoming very important, too, and
the wording "Remote Sensing" may better capture the variety
of astonishing perceptions that become available after resolving
the hypnotic fixation onto one's current body.
Furthermore, there is an established school of Remote Viewing,
Far Sight at http://www.farsight.org/ , which works by the principle of "funneled info packets" with the objective to gather intelligence data-- an approach which is not addressed in PNOHTEFTU at all since it is quite limited in terms of fostering the spiritual liberation of the Being. To avoid confusion with such indirect techniques to gain information, the set of processes introduced in PNOHTEFTU will officially be called "Straightline Remote Sensing" instead of "Remote Viewing."
Two dire warnings, though, before the fun begins:
Remote sensing was always regarded to be an ability that would be
beyond the reach of the "average human." It is quite often a side
effect of spiritual freedom and, as such, it can be easily confused
with the latter. However, it is in no way an indication, or even
a measure, of the achievement of individual, spiritual freedom.
On the contrary, having abilities that others don't have can
quickly become a considerable trap for the Being. In particular,
it can lead to an increasing identification with a Being's emanations
on a "higher" level than the human body. Thus, the Being can wind up
stalled half-way "home," and cease striving for liberation altogether.
This, probably, was the main reason why Gotamo Siddharto (now known as the "Buddha") sternly rejected the pursuit of any kind of
supra-normal ability (Pali: "siddhi") as a goal in itself.
Secondly, and more from a down-to-Earth viewpoint, one's ability to
see things far away or tucked away in concealed places is better kept a darn good secret.
Humans go through incredible efforts to hide things from others
and from themselves. And nothing throws a human mind in a bigger
loop than the uncertainty about whether someone else found out
about such a hidden thing or not.
Therefore, if someone is being suspected to be able to gain knowledge of hidden things, he or she can be certain to become the distinct focus of the compounded wrath of fellow humans who feel threatened that some of their sacred secrets may become exposed, rightfully so or not.
Now, in the following there are some selected exercises to bring
about or to increase the ability of remote sensing. The emphasis
is put on breaking the fixation onto the current body and its organs. The actual outcome is of secondary importance in the context of
PNOHTEFTU, the "Little Purple Notebook On How To Escape From
This Universe."
Here is the first exercise, followed by its rationale:
"Imagine a mirror and see yourself-- in the mirror-- while you're
doing whatever you're currently doing."
This can be done anywhere and at any time. The more places and
the more different the circumstances, the better.
The angle and the distance of the imagined (!) mirror can be varied
and played with at will. As a side note, it is generally not a good
idea to stare in a real mirror for too long-- it is further interiorizing an already existing fixation.
This exercise, the "mirror trick," has too many benefits to list.
First and foremost, it leads to a diversion from the fixation
onto one's "own" body. This alone is worth doing it.
Furthermore, it is giving an interesting and immediate feedback
in daily life, fostering a variety of self-corrections in respect to personal appearance.
It also opens the path to "multiple viewpoints": holding several
views of an event in one's mind at the same time. "Multiple
viewpoint processing" is one of the most powerful tools that
are out there.
Looking at a mirror "automatically" triggers the "observation
mode" (Castaneda calls it the "stalking mode"). This means it prompts the person to "look" at what is there. This is in contrast to the predominant mode of operation amongst today's humans, which consists of "dreaming" and making-up what they think should be there instead of witnessing what's really there.
The mirror is a 2D visual reflection of a multi-dimensional environment, making it easier to digest the information as a visual experience.
Most people do not see "2 1/2 D" and even fewer see true "3D."
The latter is sometimes called "holographic viewing," and exercises
to bring about this truly spectacular experience will be described
later.
Thus, reducing an event to an obvious two-dimensional picture
filters out additional sensations and perceptions that could
be overwhelming or distractive in the initial observation process.
Perhaps the most surprising result of engaging in remote viewing
is the rediscovery of perceptions that, often, one wasn't aware that
one had in the first place. Density, structure, weight,
temperature, and emotional frequencies of materials are properties
which suddenly, and unexpectedly, become rediscovered.
It's an amazing world out there, really!
In a nutshell, and quite ironically, the main obstacle to remote
viewing is NOT the ability to look at a remote scenery, but the
tendency of the human mind to construct a picture of what it is
used to THINKING is out there WITHOUT even looking at it.
This tendency to "dub-in" a picture instead of perceiving an
ongoing event as it unfolds needs to be resolved.
The above exercise goes a long way toward gaining certainty of
accurate observation through immediate confirmation and corrective
feedback. It is still bound to the immediate environment. But
how can one accurately observe an event in a distance if the
scenery at hand is not grasped?
The benefits of remote sensing abilities rely on, and transfer
directly into, present time. In a sense, every "viewing" is remote
to begin with and "remote viewing" is just changing some of the
parameters of the general setup.
The next installment of the "Exercises in Straightline Remote Sensing"
will cause one's vision to shift, probably, to the most unlikely place
one could imagine...
In the meantime, have fun with "mirror trick"-- and be ready to be
surprised! |
