(S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Extended Remote Viewin ERV) draws on the expertise of over two decades ef research by independent investigators and recognized academic institutions to include the University of Virginia Medical Center, the Mind Science Foundation, the University of California at Davis and Syracuse University. (C/NF) The ERV approach has as its goal the subjective temporal extension of subliminally brief psychic impressions. The trained ERV percipient is able to control, observe and report perceptions which would otherwise be ignored or neglected fleeting imagery. This extension of the perceptual window is accomplished through the achievement of a discrete state of consciousness defined by identified state dependent behaviors. These behaviors are regarded as skills. * (C/NF) The basic components of the ERV procedure involve learning the following skills: 1. The ability to physically relax. Training in progressive relaxation techniques and yoga. 2. The ability to reduce level of physical arousal. Training in biofeedback techniques and self-control exercises. 3. The ability to increase awareness of internal feelings images. Training in dream recall, guided visual imagery exercises, subliminal recognition drills and Hemispheric Synchronization. 4. The ability to engage in "receptive mode/right hemispheric functioning. Training in hemispheric synchronization, mode recognition and drawing classes. Approved For -RDP96-00789R003300210002-1

(C/NF) Each one of these skills can be trained over a period of several weeks. When the trainee demonstrates independent mastery of each skill, he then learns to combine the skills. The goal is to simultaneously exhibit all of the learned skills thereby achieving a specified discrete state of consciousness in which an individual is able to remote view. * (C/NF) Coordinate Remote Viewing (CRV) was developed by an SRI contractor in the early 1980's. This methodology was developed to satisfy R&D demands on SRI to enhance the reliability (scientific replicability) of remote viewing. The subcontractor's approach to improving the reliability of remote viewing was to focus on the control of those factors that in his view tend to introduce "noise" into the remote viewing product. * (C/NF) The basic components of this training procedure consists of: 1. Repeated site-address (coordinate) presentation with quick-reaction response by the remote viewer; coupled with a restrictive format for reporting perceived information which minimizes "imaginative" overlay. 2. The use of a specially-designed, acoustic-tiled, "viewing chamber" which minimizes "environmental" overlays. 3. The adoption of a strictly-prescribed, limited monitor patter which minimizes "monitor" overlays. (C/NF) The CRV process usually begins by presenting the remote viewer with an encrypted geographical coordinate, hence the name CRV. Encrypted geographical coordinates is a series of twelve numbers or less which are selected from a random program generator Approved For min? 96-00789R003300210002-1 pret Woe

These stages will now be discussed. Stage One - Islands, mountains, deserts. Stage Two - Sites of quality sensory value; sites which are uniquely describable through touch, taste, sound color or odor such as glaciers, volcanoes and industrial plants. Sites possessing significant dimensional characteristics such as buildings, bridges and airfields. Stage Three Stage Four - Sites requiring qualitative mental perceptions such as technical area, military feeling and research. Stage Five - Sites requiring the interrogation of qualitative mental perceptions to produce refined information such as aircraft tracking radar, biomedical research facility and tank production plant. Stage Six - Sites requiring direct, three-dimensional assessment of site element to one another such as airplanes inside on of three camouflaged hangers or a military compound with a command building, barracks, motor pool and underground storage area. As this stage is engaged, an assessment of relative temporal and spatial dimensional elements along with further qualitative elements evolve into the consciousness of the individual. * (C/NF) Written Remote Viewing (WRV) is the ability to receive direct, detailed information. The WRV process consists of utilizing a pen or pencil and writing on paper information received. The writing is a rapid and flowing movement initiated by impulses to the autonomic nervous system. WRV was initiated in- house during the 1986 ti me frame. a Ay Approved For Relea idm A-RDP96-00789R003300210002-1

WRV is an evolving process with development over time. * (C/NF) Additional methodologies that can be utilized include: (U) Dowsing which is the search for underground supplies of water, metal or a person by the use of a forked stick known as a divining rod. (U) Psychometry is the faculty of receiving information concerning an object or person associated with it, by contact with or proximity to the object. Psychometry is also known as Object Remote Viewing. (U) Clairvoyance is the faculty of seeing objects or actions removed from natural viewing. It is the quick, intuitive knowledge of things and people. * (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Remote viewing has been successfully used against several categories of tasking. These categories include penetration of inaccessible targets, science and technology information, cuing of intelligence collection systems, imminent hostilities, determination of nuclear from non-nuclear targets, human source assessment and personality profiles. * (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) There are generally three areas of target selection that are utilized for operational projects. They are: (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Geographical areas or fixed sites can he anywhere and can be of anything. The target site can emphasize natural or man-made features, or contain a mix of these. These targets are usually military facilities or technical sites.

The personality should be one of prominence, can be male or female and of any race or age. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Search is one of the most difficult operational projects. It involves the remote viewer actually locating an individual or equipment or a lost vessel or aircraft. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) When utilized properly, remote viewers have proven to be of substantial value to intelligence customers. When they have been used incorrectly, however, results were usually disappointing. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Protocols for a remote viewing session shoula be consistent whether the target is an R&D, an in-house Proficiency Enhancement or an Operational project. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) The target should be secured in a sealed envelope. A number is assigned to the project and then the individual remote viewers are tasked via a tasking sheet. * (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) The tasking sheet, which is essentially a request for information, will consist of the project number, the viewer identification number which is also the source number and the date of the actual tasking. This information is to be filled out by the Unit Manager or the customer and then given to the remote viewers prior to their session. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) The tasking sheet will also consist of an evaluation to be completed by the customer when an operation is completed. The tasking sheet can also note the completion time of the operation.
