Of what practical use is ESP?

I was recently taken by surprise when a business manager friend I was inviting to attend my seminar suddenly asked me: “Of what practical use is ESP? What for should I try to develop it?”

“You mean you do not know?” I asked him incredulously.

“Nope,” he snapped back, “Never bothered to find out.”

After I had gained some composure and began to think calmly, I realized he was right, not many people, even supposedly highly educated and intelligent ones, are aware of the many uses of ESP in everyday life, in business and practically any human endeavor or activity.

Let’s begin with some scientific background info, which many of us do not know about.

Back in the ’70s, two researchers from the Engineering Department of the University of Newark, New Jersey in the United States started to ask a somewhat similar question. They were John Mihalasky and Douglas Dean. They wanted to know whether there was any correlation between business success and ESP ability.

So they devised an experiment to find out. They asked 50 chief executives of various companies to guess what two-digit numbers would come out of a randomly generated set of numbers. Then they asked them to fill out a questionnaire about the financial status of their firms during the last five years.

They discovered those executives who scored very high in correctly predicting what two-digit numbers would come out were managing companies that doubled their profitability in five years. And those who scored average or below in their ability to guess the numbers correctly were managing companies that had either average profitability or were even going down.

When they presented their findings to the university, they were told the results were interesting but not conclusive because their sample of 50 executives was too low.

So, when given the opportunity to test their theory on some 1500 top executives who held a convention in the university, they repeated the ESP test and business success correlation with them. The results were the same. Those who scored high in the ESP test were running highly successful firms while those who scored low on the test were running firms with average or even declining profitability.

This was the first scientifically controlled experiment that shows without doubt the relevance of ESP ability to business success. And I tend to believe this because I have been for about 20 years almost a regular speaker of an elite and prestigious international organization of top-level executives called the Young Presidents Organization based at that time in Dallas, Texas.

During my talks, I invariably give these executives an exercise in remote viewing, and in all occasions, I never got an average success rate below 90 percent among those who attended my sessions. Remote viewing is a scientifically validated skill that began at the Stanford Research Institute (now called SRI International) in Menlo Park California in the ’70s.

I conduct a modified version here of the scientific protocol developed by physicists Russell Targ and Harold Puthoff.

Other uses

There are many other uses of ESP aside from business. It has been successfully used in crime detection and investigation, finding missing persons, lost objects and even hidden treasures or sunken ships.

During the last World War, the military suppliers used psychics to detect or find leaks in underwater pipelines, which could not be detected by any scientific instruments. They used dowsers or water diviners to locate them and they succeeded in doing so.

Persons with above-average psychic ability can sense danger or problem before it arises and avoid it. They can find solutions to problem faster than the average person.

A mother found her son, whose car fell into a ravine, by remote viewing. She saw him hanging precariously at the branch of a tree at the edge of the ravine, which rescuers missed.

In the ’80s, I talked to the head of the Psychotronics Research Society in Utrecht, The Netherlands, who showed me a letter signed by the Chief of Police of Utrecht certifying that 12 serious crimes that year were solved through the help of psychics.

Is there a practical value to developing ones’ psychic ability? Why don’t you ask the people I have mentioned above? They will tell you.

I have been teaching ESP development for the last 25 years worldwide. It wouldn’t have lasted this long if it had no practical value at all.

Can the future be seen?

Here’s an intriguing question from a female reader who calls herself Alpha, regarding the nature of time and seeing the future.

“Let’s say everything from 2005 to the present has already happened, as well as the future. Then, we are just repeating things that happened before.

“If that is the case, then the coming events already took place. I want to know if hypnosis can help a person see the coming events, since they are considered merely a repetition of the past. If not, how is it possible to see future events?”

Time, as we know it, exists only in our three-dimensional world of physical reality. Actually, time does not exist in the mental and, specially, in the spiritual planes.

To define time is almost an impossible task. The usual division of time into past, present and future is merely a convenient metaphor for us to rationally or logically function in this physical world.
In reality, there is no such thing. There is only the eternal now.

That is why there is some truth to the saying that, “The future is now!” The past is forever gone, and the future is yet to be.

The present

But in reality, what we consider to be a future event in the physical world is actually the present in the spiritual or nonphysical world. Because before something appears on the physical plane, it must first appear on the mental and spiritual planes.

According to some modern physicists, time travel is theoretically possible. And if man can invent a machine that can travel at the speed of light, which is 186,000 miles per second, then this can become a physical reality.

The next question is: If the future can be seen, say an accident or impending danger, can it be prevented?

The answer is: Sometimes yes, at other times, no.

What makes the difference one way or the other? A future event can be prevented if not all the elements for its completion are present.

For example, if it requires the will of man to complete the event, it can still be prevented. However, if all the elements are completed on that higher astral plane, nothing can be done to prevent it from happening on the physical plane. In other words, we live in a multidimensional reality.

Negative vibes

Another reader asks if negative thoughts and feelings take physical form or become tangible “even in the absence of the negative person?”

“My family,” she continued, “went through an emotional crisis the last few years. It involved mainly my two sisters who lived with my parents. My older sister stayed in the room where I felt strong negative vibes when I visited the place. Her envy, anger and all other pent-up emotions have become so tangible that they fill the room with negative vibes. Is this possible?”

Yes, because the feelings expressed by any person especially if strong negative ones, are imprinted in the akashic record of that place which can be felt by a sensitive person. A non-sensitive person may not feel these negative vibes but will still affect him or her.

To remove negative emotions, light an incense or candle, or sound Tibetan bells in the room. You may also leave clear quartz crystals in the room to somehow neutralize the negative energies.

The next Soulmates, Karma & Reincarnation seminar will be on June 14, 1-7 p.m. Call 8107245, 8926806; fax 8159890; e-mail innerawareness_ 2005@yahoo.com.
