CRV and Beyond

The IRVA Library has posted a new item from the CIA Star Gate Archives: this 40 page report is a version of the CRV manual that predates the 'official' CRV manual by about a year. The portion that most students of remote viewing will be interested in are the additional stages mentioned (this is the "beyond" of the report). Consensus is that Tom McNear wrote this report. The report is in pdf format at http://irvalibrary.com/papers/1985_CRV_beyond.pdf

The conclusions are a cautionary tale for any remote viewer - all displacement theorists should pay attention to the 3rd paragraph:

After four years of training I know the CRV training program is a usable program for instructing personnel to RV. As we increase our data base and understanding we are finding the time required for training can be shortened. If the instructors are a dedicated group who truly understand CRV this program will continue to improve and expand.

Future stages will continue to develop, I believe, in the general order which I presented them in the previous chapter. The future of CRV is only limited by the imagination and efforts of the people pursuing it.

I believe we establish our own realities of what will and won’t work. We once had a viewer who believed he could view, but he couldn’t view different time zones, consequently he succeeded as a viewer, but failed as a "time traveler”. His reality would not allow him to accomplish the same tasks as his peers, simply because he didn’t believe.

It is imperative the personnel working in this office keep an open mind and be allowed to pursue new and sometimes radical ideas. The more radical efforts may produce the most gain in the long run."
