IT
IS ALSO POSSIBLE
TO
DETECT-,
THROUGH
THE HUMAN CONSTITUTION!
THE THINKING PROCESSES!
MORAL DUALITIES
AND PHYSICAL CONDITIONS
OF
THE ENEMY!
WHICH WILL ENABLE
OUR COMMANDERS
TO FULLY EXPLOIT
THEIR WISDOM!
THEIR WEAPONS
AND EQUIPMENT
TO MAXIMIZE
THE OPERATIONAL RESULTS.
IT
IS
ALSO CAPABLE
OF
DETECTING
THE
LAW
OF OPERATIONS
OF
THE UNIVERSEi
THE TERRAIN
AND
WEATHER CONDITIONS
OF
THE BATTLEFIELD
FOR MORE ACCURATE FORECASTS.
IN SHORT!
YANGUANGJING
CAN HELP
THE COMMANDERS
AND FIGHTERS
AT
ALL
LEVELS
MAKE ACCURATE
JUDGEMENTS
ON
THE
BASIS
OF TIMELY
INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION
ON
THE
ENEMY.
IT
CAN
ALSO
HELP
IN ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESEARCH
AND
BUILDING
CONSTRUCTION.
IN
THE INITIAL PERIOD
OF
OPERATION!
IT
WILL
TAKE
TWO
PERSONS
TO
DO
THE
JOB!
ONE OPERATING
THE
"MIRROR"
THE OTHER DOING
THE OBSERVATION.
ONCE ENTERING
THE HIGHER
STAGE!
IT
WILL
BE POSSIBLE
FOR
ONE
PERSON
TO
DO
THE
JOB.
HE WILL THEN
BE
IN
THE
POSITION
TO
MAKE EXTENSIVE OBSERVATIONS
OF
ANY
SPECIALLY
SELECTED
OBJECT
AT
WILL
AND
WITHOUT
BEING
DISCOVERED
BY
THE
ENEMY.
THE
ABOVE
STUDY ILLUSTRATES
THE MATERIAL
AND
SCIENTIFIC
DUALITIES
OF
"YANGUANGJING"
WHICH
WILL
BE
OF
GREAT
VALUE
IN MILITARY
RECONNAISSANCE.

are
of
great
importance,
both
theoretically

there
are

We
are
full
of confidence
as
to

of
the
extraordinary
function
of
the
human
body
in China.

2. Targets must be sealed using tamper-proof methods~"irreversible" is the Chinese term.
3. There must be continuous, on-site, multi-angle observation by experimenters or by video tape.
These requirements have led researchers to believe that their reported results are real, and that
the effect is PK acting on the target. When the use of modem instruments becomes unavoidable,
it is believed that the experimental protocol must be arranged so that the subject is away from the
instruments and without knowledge of when or how the surveillance and analysis of targets is
performed.
4. Psi as a personally developable skill
It is assumed as a matter of course in P.R.C. that psychic ability, as well as other benefits, can
be developed through the practice of qigong.
In the West, by contrast, the serious literature
largely ignores training and stresses conditions at the time of the experiment.
5. Areas not studied
Although investigations of apparitions, poltergeists, hauntings, and survival of death (including
mediumship, channeling, and reincarnation) are not formally banned in P.R.C., these topics are
often considered to be sensitive, and thus are not reported as being formally studied because of
concern about their ideological inappropriateness under the compelling guidelines of Marxist
materialism.
Moreover,
researchers
are
comparatively
ignorant
concerning
these
psychic
research topics.
Some experimenters briefly investigated such areas earlier, but soon became
targets for attack by Mr. Yu Guangyuan and others.
It seems that no one has mentioned these
topics openly since then.

12In the P.R.C. authoritative statements about sensitive topics frequently appear in serial publications of restricted
circulation.
Later, these statements may be quoted or paraphrased in an unrestricted journal and, in this way, become
available for quotation in writings intended for foreign publication. In China, papers abstracted in another journal keep
their original
titles unless otherwise indicated.
In the present
list, references are in Chinese unless notated "(In
English)".
The reader will notice die absence of Chinese research papers in foreign journals.
Such papers would
require official approval before submission, and, for the present, such approval is not likely to be forthcoming.
