Training Anomalous Cognition with Edwin C. May


source: New Thinking Allowed     2016年8月17日
Edwin C. May, PhD, was involved in the military intelligence psychic spying program, popularly referred to as Stargate, for over twenty years. During the last decade, he was the director of research for that program. In this context, he produced over a hundred scientific publications. His academic training was in experimental nuclear physics. He is coauthor of ESP Wars: East and West and also Anomalous Cognition: Remote Viewing Research and Theory. He is the coeditor of a two volume anthology titled Extrasensory Perception: Support, Skepticism, and Science.
Here he addresses misconceptions about the possibilities of remote viewing training. He states that statistical analysis of the U.S. government’s twenty-year remote viewing project failed to yield evidence that any training methods were successful. At least three different approaches were involved, including the methodology developed by Ingo Swann that has become the basis for several commercial training approaches. Nevertheless, May believes that many tips can aid remote viewers. Furthermore, having a supportive social environment is extremely helpful.

New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is a past vice-president of the Association for Humanistic Psychology; and is the recipient of the Pathfinder Award from that Association for his contributions to the field of human consciousness exploration. He is also past-president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.
